The beauty of your bedroom? There’s no one way to style it! Let our cushioned bed frames be the perfect foundation to style around.

The Minimalist

Clean lines, calm energy, intentional spaces. 

Whether you gravitate towards simple pleasures or are curating calm through life’s everyday chaos, here’s how to pare back your space for simplicity, function, and effortless style. 

1. Choose a simple bed frame upholstery design

SoftFrame® bed frames are made from premium materials and fabrics, so you can best choose the one for your space. In a clean, modern room, a light color or soft texture like Dune or Boucle could be the perfect fit. 

2. Pick complementary bedding

From full monochrome to a slight pop of calming color, the right bedding color or pattern can further transform your space. Keep it simple with soft cottons or breezy linens to tuck into your new cushioned bed frame.

2. Be selective with statement pieces

If your bed frame is the focal point of comfort and character, choose your statement pieces carefully. To maintain a minimalist aesthetic, a sculptural accent mirror or lamp is just enough to enhance your space without overdoing it. 


Why it works

Our all-cushioned bed frame softens the edges of minimalism, creating a modern look that is warm and inviting at the end of a long day—and far from a sad, beige bedroom.

The Modernist

Quiet luxury meets personal expression. 

More indulgent than a minimalist but not as expressive as a maximalist. For this look, think warm textures, elevated comfort, and curated layers.

1. Choose an elevated bed frame to anchor the room

Minimalist is your baseline, so go for a cushioned bed frame that adds a little more interest, like Sahara or Teddy. With a bit more warmth and texture dimension, you already have the beginnings of something ultra-cozy and uniquely yours. 

2. Incorporate layers of texture and subtle color

Lean into even more texture with plush throws, chunky knits, and intentional pops of color. Something as simple as a complementary accent color added through throws and knick-knacks can completely transform your space. 

3. Light up the space with intention

Don’t stop with layering pieces—light up your room. There’s nothing better than getting into bed and setting the mood with thoughtful lighting. Whether you want a red light lamp for total relaxation, sconces that ground your bed frame, or a statement lamp, the right lighting can tie it all together. 

 

Why it works

Our soft bed frames already welcome a sense of calm, but pairing yours with warm layers, cozy textures, and mood lighting can enhance that sanctuary-like feel without overwhelming your space or style.

The Maximalist

Vibrant, layered, curated. 

If more is more is your mantra, then our maximalist styling tips are right for you. It’s about embracing color, texture, and creativity—all starting with a statement bed frame. 

1. Choose a bold bed frame to match your personality

Color, pattern, texture—you name it. Our iconic soft bed frames, like Vegan Cowhide, Sky, Forest, or Cotton Candy, are a great place to start. 

2. Embrace color and pattern play

Style your cushioned bed frame with even richer hues and playful patterns, from printed wallpapers and statement throws to eye-catching furniture and vintage pieces. In a maximalist bedroom, there’s no such thing as too many colors or mismatched patterns. 

3. Dress your walls in art and unique pieces

Complete the look with a well-curated gallery wall, featuring original artworks, auction finds, and antique mirrors and frames. Get creative with style and scale to design a one-of-a-kind bedroom that reflects your personality and personal style. 


Why it works

In an energetic space, a plush bed frame brings grounding comfort. It adds balance and softness, which are essential for bold maximalist’s room. 

Great design starts with all-around comfort. Dream up and design your perfect soft spot with SoftFrame® and our exclusive bed frame styling tips. Take your space from blank canvas to bursting with personality to curate a bedroom that feels like you.
