Contrary to what many people think, the headboard
is not merely a decorative item, although it is one of the great highlights of
a room.
The headboard represents protection, providing
security and stability during the sleep period, when people are naturally more
fragile and vulnerable, protecting our bodies from receiving excess external
energies.
Currently, with the increase in the use of box
beds, many people end up forgetting or not giving importance to this piece of living
room furniture, without noticing that in addition to the aesthetic
detail it represents for the bedroom, it offers numerous other advantages such
as comfort and personalization, which we will show throughout this article.
Why should I
use a headboard on the bed?
We know you might never have thought about it, but
aesthetics is not the main function of a headboard. In reality, there is no
architectural or decoration concept that requires the use of this furniture in
the construction of a decorated environment.
Among all the reasons we will explain throughout
this text for you to use a headboard on your bed, the main one is to protect
your head from colliding or being in direct contact with the wall.
The second reason is to also protect the wall from
contact with the bed, which can be damaged due to constant common friction.
Okay, but
what about the headboard aesthetics?
We are not here trying to convince you that
aesthetics are not important. Quite the opposite. We just want to show you that
this is not the only important point for those who want to purchase this piece
of furniture.
A well-planned headboard, in addition to providing
the protection, comfort and security you need and deserve, can also be one of
the most important items in your bedroom decor. This is to unite the useful
with the pleasant, without a doubt.
After all, the headboard becomes the focal point of
the room and can still come loaded with personality and style when customized,
so that you can bring more authenticity to an environment that is all (or
almost) yours.
Advantages
of using a planned headboard on your bed
As we've talked about so far, there are several
benefits that go far beyond the aesthetics of using a headboard, so we've
separated the main ones for you to analyze before giving up yours:
- Protect
your head and body from the cold or excessive heat of the wall;
- Protect
the wall from stains and scratches caused by direct contact with the bed;
- Provide
comfort when pulling over to read a book or watch television;
- Values
the bed and the room as a whole;
- It
can be 100% customized in matters of formats, models, measurements, materials
and colors;

the focal point of bedroom decor;
- It's
hot on decorating trends;
- Convey
style and personality to the environment;
- Have
a product tailored to your space and needs;

It
can be the big difference in your bedroom decor.
Did you see?! It goes far beyond a prettier
environment. It's the best way to have comfort, warmth and beauty in that space
dedicated to your rest and moments of relaxation.
Okay, I'm
convinced. But how to choose the ideal headboard?
Before you go shopping for any headboard, it is
important that you consider some important points that make the planned
headboard the most suitable option for your room, such as:
Environment
style
As with all furniture, colors and coverings, the
headboard needs to stand out in the room, but also complement the decor. That's
why the planned headboard makes it possible to create something that fits and
matches the environment you already have.
Bed size
There are several sizes of box beds, so the custom
headboard will take the size you choose into account, but much beyond that, the
dimensions of the room, such as height, depth and length.
If you have a very small room, it can be created in
a way that brings the feeling of more space, for example.
Functionality
In addition to all the functions mentioned in this
text, a planned headboard also allows you to join or camouflage other functions
in the room, such as: attaching the nightstand and directed lighting, hiding
sockets and electrical wiring, etc.
Your room and your rest deserve an environment
fully designed for you to relax. With that in mind, Coley Home is prepared to
help you find the ideal custom upholstered headboards option for you and your room.
