Despite being present since ancient times, the headboard is increasingly becoming an optional item in the decoration of a bedroom. With the role of framing the bed and providing a backrest for its occupant, it has been replaced with a lot of creativity.
With the most varied possibilities, all you have to do is let your imagination run wild and add more personality to the room by using decoration resources such as wallpaper and personalized stickers, or even pillows of different sizes to ensure comfort and beauty in the bedroom.
The composition can be even more interesting if unconventional materials are used in place of the headboard, such as pictures and lights, or to make the room even brighter by placing the bed under a window. There are plenty of options, all you have to do is identify which one suits you best. Check out the following selection of beautiful environments with a bed without a headboard and get inspired:
