A modern bed frame sets the tone for the entire bedroom—clean lines, a calm look, and a strong foundation for your mattress. The Brick has to offer modern beds designed to complement sleek interiors while keeping comfort front and centre.
If you’re searching for a bed frame with a headboard, this collection helps you choose a style that looks finished and feels great for reading, relaxing, and winding down.
Choose a modern bed frame
Start with the biggest piece of furniture in the bedroom: the bed. The Brick recommends placing the bed first so the rest of the layout—nightstands, dresser, even a bench—falls into place naturally.
When you’re choosing a modern bed, consider:
Bed size (and walking space around it).
Your preferred height (lower profiles feel more modern).
Whether you want storage built in or open space underneath.
Platform beds
Platform styles are a popular modern option because they look streamlined and often sit lower to the floor. Many platform designs are built to support a mattress without a box spring, which keeps the bedroom silhouette clean.
Upholstered modern beds
Upholstered modern bed frames add softness and make a bedroom feel more layered. They’re a great match for minimal décor, since texture can do the “design work” without adding visual clutter.
Storage bed frames
If the bedroom needs to work harder, a storage bed frame can help reduce the need for extra dressers or bins. Storage-forward designs also keep the room looking tidy, which is a big part of a modern feel.
Bed frame with headboard: why it matters
A headboard bed frame makes the room look complete and can protect your wall from scuffs. A headboard also gives you a comfortable backrest when you’re sitting up in bed with a book, laptop, or morning coffee.
If your headboard is flush against the wall, The Brick notes you can often fit more furniture around the bed, including nightstands on one or both sides.
Coordinate your bed frame and headboard
A bed frame and headboard should work with your other key bedroom pieces. The Brick’s essentials list for a functional bedroom starts with a bed, a nightstand, and a dresser or chest—so it’s worth choosing a bed style that plays nicely with your storage and lighting.
Quick coordination tips:
Match tones, not exact finishes (warm wood + cream upholstery; black hardware + grey tones).
Keep the headboard height in mind if you’re placing the bed between windows.
Add a bench or trunk at the foot of the bed if you want extra storage and seating.
