We believe home design should be stylish and distinctive. Your bedroom is a sanctuary for rest, and at its center is the bed. From the clean lines of a low-slung platform frame to a trimly upholstered headboard, your bed should be tailored to you in a way no other piece of furniture is. At Lulu and Georgia, our thoughtfully curated collection of modern beds is perfect for your home, offering elevated style with a distinctive touch.
Not sure what style or design best fits your space when shopping for a new bed? Don't worry; we have got you covered. Check out the tips below for ideas and inspiration as you choose the best piece to buy for your space.
A Quick Guide to Bed Styles
From grounded frames to standout silhouettes, beds come in a range of profiles that can shape the feel of your entire room. Whether you're after visual drama or everyday comfort, there's a style made to suit your space. Let’s take a look at a few options as you start to narrow choices.
Platform Beds
Clean-lined and modern, often eliminating the need for a box spring. The Clementine Platform Bed offers a playful, tailored headboard with a recessed platform frame.
Canopy Beds
High-impact and architectural, canopy bed frames define the room with vertical presence. A style like the Simonette Canopy Bed brings a modern look to a timeless bedroom design.
Wooden Beds
Naturally durable and timeless, bringing warmth to any room. Make a statement with a wood headboard or go for just a touch of grain with something like our McPherson Platform Bed.
Cane Beds
Airy and textured, perfect for an artisanal touch. Cane bed frames often feature woven details that feel both relaxed and curated. The Brooke Platform Bed features a curved profile set off by cane paneling on the footboard and headboard offering a textural touch.
Upholstered Bed Frames
Soft and versatile, with padded headboards designed for lounging. At Lulu and Georgia we have a whole collection of bespoke fabric options in a range of silhouettes—but we’ll cover that below.
Remember, at the end of the day, your bed is about you. Whether you're drawn to modern beds with bold silhouettes or favor classic lines, there's a style to suit every design perspective.
Finding the Right Bed for Your Room
As the centerpiece of the room, your bed should be in conversation with the space around it. Choosing the right bed means considering more than just style—you need to think about how it functions in your room. For compact spaces, platform beds offer a streamlined look that feels airy and unobtrusive. The Nabiha Platform Bed offers just that, with a low-slung bed frame and clean silhouette.
Have high ceilings or want to draw the eye upward? Something like our Simonette Canopy Bed creates instant drama and architectural appeal. Meanwhile, upholstered beds can add softness and dimension, helping to warm up larger rooms or transitional spaces. Styles can range from designer favorites like our Gladys Platform Bed by Sarah Sherman Samuel to a soft, sculptural statement like the Rigby Platform Bed.
Above all, scale matters. Consider the footprint of the bed frame in relation to your room size, the height of your ceilings, and how much clearance you’ll need for nightstands, walkways, and other bedroom furniture.
Tailor The Look With Bespoke Upholstery
When it comes to upholstered beds, the material you choose has a major impact on the overall look and feel. Whether you want something woven and breezy or rich and supple, consider the texture, tone, and practicality of your fabric choice.
Velvet — soft, plush, and perfect for adding a touch of glam
Linen Weaves — breathable and casual with a tailored finish
Prints and Patterns — from subtle motifs to bold statements, great for visual interest
Bouclé and Sherpa — tactile and cozy, ideal for a textural moment
Performance Fabrics — durable, easy-to-clean options for lasting elegance
Color matters too. A white or ivory upholstered bed frame creates a clean, minimalist canvas. Deep tones—like navy, olive, or rust—can anchor the room and add richness. The key is to pick a material that complements the rest of your decor while delivering the comfort and style you want to anchor the room.
