Interior design trends have allowed the strangest of design fusions to combine and create eclectic spaces where each element has distinct characteristics resulting in unique yet harmonious interior spaces. Designing in unfamiliar terrain is testing the limits of functionality and aesthetics. It involves taking risks and exploring different possibilities and incredible opportunities that will produce an efficient and beautiful result. In the case of bedroom headboard designs, the challenge is selecting a piece that will blend in with the interior scheme of the place and provide a stylish accent that is pleasing and attractive to the bedroom occupant.

Your choice of a modern or traditional headboard will depend to a large extent on the design of your bed and the rest of the furniture, finishes of the interior structure and accessories in the interior of the bedroom. If you have a traditional bed with elaborate carvings made from solid mahogany wood, the wisest choice will be a conventional design with similar carvings and a tall height that can offset the massiveness of traditional masculine beds.

Canopy headboards are attractive to the eye and richer silk fabrics can exude a very seductive and cozy atmosphere for the bedroom. Having a full back wall as a headboard with custom shelves that tuck into the first few parts of the headboard is a modern innovation. There are multifunctional headboards that are very appropriate for condominium living and other urban residential buildings that require more storage spaces and a concentrated distribution of space. If possible at the other end of the shelves, a study table can be incorporated into the design to make the most of the space. Headboards that can be tiled from floor to ceiling are also a huge trend today. Small glass mosaics are simply divine, especially when they create colossal abstract images or realistic images of the scenes that fill the outside world. Large slate, granite, marble, and pebble stones are great material choices that will create a natural, organic look for a modern bedroom with an industrial look.

The great thing about designing headboards is the freedom with which you can experiment with your ideas and see where your imagination will take you. Tufted headboards alternating your favorite colors can add a pop of color to a bedroom, as can fun tufted headboards with velvet fabrics and unique button tufting. You don’t need to worry if you are overwhelmed with your options because what will come out in the end is the innovative design that you have suggested to your carpenter or his interior designer. They should be able to show you a clear picture of your dream room and of course the perfect headboard to complement it.
