At bedtime, it is worth investing in a headboard that will add a touch of style to the room.

Check out the tips we have separated for you to choose the right model for your bed and get inspired!

Think about the proportion between the headboard and the bed

Before purchasing the headboard, it is important to know the size of the bed in order to choose a proportional piece of furniture. Below, we have separated the measurements of the main models.

• Single box bed: 0.88 x 1.88m
• Double box bed: 1.38 x 1.88m
• Queen box bed: 1.58 x 1.98
• King box bed: 1.93 x 2.03m

In addition to being proportional to the bed, the custom upholstered headboards must be in harmony with the size of the room.

For narrow rooms: opt for a headboard that covers the entire width of the wall and is low. This helps make the room look larger.

For compact rooms: tall headboards are the best option as they lengthen the room.

The right color

When choosing the color, opt for the most versatile ones, which balance with the other decorative items. White, beige and gray are wildcard tones that also help to visually enlarge the room.

Creating a romantic style

The upholstered headboard is perfect for double rooms. Elegant and romantic, it creates an intimate atmosphere and combines with delicate elements and neutral tones. Furthermore, the garment is comfortable and ideal to support and enjoy reading a book.

Wooden headboard: rustic and timeless feel

Wooden headboards are versatile and harmonize with virtually all decor styles. This is because this material offers different shades and finishes, giving you the freedom to develop various types of composition.

Composition Options

Headboard models with built-in ornaments, in addition to innovating in decoration, can make better use of space, especially in compact rooms.

Check out some possibilities.

Combine headboard with shelves

For those who have a smaller room, one option is to combine the headboard with niches and shelves. That way, you save space and still have the possibility to store books, pictures, plants and other objects.

Use tables next to the headboard

In large bedrooms, you can place side tables beside the bed, creating a harmonious composition with the headboard and enriching the decor, as these furniture add color and texture to the room.

Enlarging the room with mirrors

Installing a mirror next to the headboard, in addition to providing breadth, adds a modern air to the environment.

To create this effect, you can install it above the headboard, on the sides or in a beveled style, that is, using a mirror with cut details.

Taking advantage of spaces without a headboard

And if you prefer to install a headboard or not, how about using your creativity and taking advantage of this free space to place pictures, wallpaper, stickers, among others?
