The headboard is considered as a centrepiece of any bedroom as it instantly adds completeness to bed, and because of this reason, it is found in every bedroom design. It is placed against the wall to provide your back support it requires and keep the bed area warm and cosy. It is found in different sizes and shapes, which anyone can choose depending on their bed design and bedroom design. In this blog, we will talk about different types of headboards so that you can make a better choice for your bedroom design ideas:

  1. Freestanding: Freestanding headboards are kept freely with the bed, and no kind of drilling work or attachments are involved with them. These can be two or three dimensional and can generally work as bookcase or storage.
  2. Wall Mounted: As the name suggests, Wall Mounted headboards are mounted to the wall or any other flat surface. These are simple and require proper measuring, drilling, levelling, and stud finder to make them look aligned with the bed. You can arrange them in a visually pleasing way so that it makes your bedroom design perfect.
  3. Bed Frame Mounted: Bed Frame Mounted headboards are directly mounted to the bed frame with the help of screws. These are generally found in all-in-one bed sets. This option also requires proper measuring, but you can be sure that the bed design is aligned with headboard design.

Depending on these three headboard types, you can pick between traditional, panel, slat, contemporary, four-poster, elegant, bohemian, or any other design you like. Also focus on the material, where wood, metal, upholstery, natural fibres, and leather are the most common ones. Whatever choice you make, just make sure that it is aligned with your home interiors and bedroom design.   We hope our blog has helped you understand about Headboard types in a precise way.
