Who needs platform beds?

Well, I have always been admiring families that buy functional beds. One of the major advantages is that a platform bed can provide space for drawers which is actually additional storage. That’s why these types of beds are proffered for smaller properties. On the other hand, they are not only a functional item but they can create a comfortable and modern bedroom atmosphere.

There are many types but mostly – wood and iron in the modern and contemporary examples and wrought iron for the massive classic and traditional types of beds. Depending on the material used, the bed frame can be either thick or just consisting of iron sticks which form the frame.
The headboards can be either wooden or upholstered with leather or fabric. It really depends on the style. So, let’s have a quick look at the most impressive examples that we could find on the market.
