A bed frame is the framework that supports the mattress and its occupants. Hence, it must be strong and stable to support the wooden slats or any other type of foundation. Depending on the material and model, there are different types of modern bed frames available in the market like:
1. Metal bed frames
2. Wooden bed frames
3. Platform bed frames
4. Waterbed frame
5. Aluminium bed frames
6. Canopy bed frames
Bed Frame Leg
Choice of modern frames usually depends on the type of décor, size of bedroom, cost and such. Metal frames are the simplest and come with low wheels. They usually have them in king, queen or twin bed sizes. The frame can be raised at the edges to prevent the mattress from moving out of position. Metal frames can give an old world look especially if they are made from wrought iron. Aluminium is more lightweight and modern frames are likely to be made from aluminium rather than metal.
Teak, wicker or rosewood is the popular choices for wooden frames. Modern frames are characterized by their sleek patterns, simple designs, minimalist themes, solid, bold colors and they give a futuristic appearance to the bedroom. Wooden frames achieve this look better than any other type of frames. Wooden frames have legs rather than wheels and can be completely assembled. They can also vary in height and provide space under the bed to store suitcases or boxes.
Platform frames are amongst the most popular modern bed frames. This is because they provide extra storage space under the beds that can prove useful at all times. Waterbed frames have to be stronger and with higher edges to support the weight of a waterbed. The frame of waterbeds closely resembles that of the platform bed frame. Canopy frames can represent both traditional and modern era depending on the design of the frames. They provide modern comforts with traditional classical styles that a lot of homeowners love.
The traditional four-poster bed as seen in Regency England has become modernized with canopy bed frames. This style once seen only in museums has been given a new lease of life by modern furniture makers who have seen their potential as an elegant yet sturdy bed frame. The modern canopy frames still have the four posts in each corner. These can extend to four feet from the ground and have supports from which curtains will hang. The posts are no longer ornate but have a simpler more utilitarian design that is easy to dismantle and clean.
Canopy frames have always represented romance and even to this day, they enjoy this reputation. The canopy or curtain is what sets it apart from other modern frames. Canopies made from silk, velvet, calico, tapestry or even sheer materials are used to give a romantic atmosphere to the bedroom of newlyweds. The modern addition is the panel which never existed in olden days. These can be of different lengths and the canopy material, color and print can be varied depending on the theme than one wants to convey.
Haven't we all seen lots of pictures of honeymoon suites with white lace curtains and canopy beds with ivory silken bedspread strewn with rose petals? Now this theme can even be extended to a home. Young couples need not worry if canopy bed frames seem way beyond their budget. They can even convert a simple platform bed into a canopy bed with four poles attached to the four corners of the bed frame. Attach curtain rods to the frames and you can hang curtains to get a canopy bed effect. Apart from a romantic theme, canopy ones are also lovely for the rooms of young girls. Done in soft pastel shades with delicate designs, canopy frames bring a cool, soft, look to a young girl's room.
The most important criterion with canopy frames is the space they occupy. Measure your bedroom width and height to ensure there is enough space to accommodate a fair sized canopy bed without restricting movement. With lots of imagination and taste, one can give their bedroom a modern look that is trendy. Remember that it is important to match the rest of the room décor with the frames to give the room a truly grand look. Having a look at home décor magazines can give you a fair idea as to how you would like to decorate your bedroom.
