Storage Beds vs Wingback Beds: Which Is Right for Your Home?

Storage Beds vs Wingback Beds: Which Is Right for Your Home?

Storage beds and wingback beds solve different problems. A storage bed turns the space beneath your mattress into hidden capacity for bedding, luggage and seasonal clothes, which is valuable in flats and smaller houses. A wingback bed gives the room a statement headboard with padded wings that frame the pillows, add height and make sitting up in bed far more comfortable. This guide helps you decide which matters more in your home. We explain the difference between ottoman and drawer storage, how to judge how much storage you really need, and what clearance each style requires above, beside and at the foot of the bed. We also compare comfort, ventilation, cleaning and upkeep, and offer styling advice for each approach alongside chests of drawers and other bedroom pieces. If you cannot choose, we look at designs that combine a wingback headboard with an ottoman base, giving you both character and practical space in one frame....

Wingback Beds Buying Guide: What to Look for Before You Order

Wingback Beds Buying Guide: What to Look for Before You Order

Wingback beds bring a sheltered, enveloping shape and a strong architectural presence to the bedroom, but they need a little more planning than a standard frame. In this buying guide we walk through the five checks worth making before you order. First, measure for the wings as well as the mattress, because the forward curving sides add width at the head of the bed and affect where bedside tables can sit. Second, check the headboard height against windows, radiators and ceilings. Third, choose a fabric that suits how you use the bed, whether you sit up reading or share it with pets. Fourth, look closely at the frame, slat spacing and centre support. Fifth, measure your staircase and doorways against the largest box. We also cover pairing the frame with the right mattress, styling the room around a visually heavy headboard and lighting the pillows so the wings do not cast shadows....

King Size Beds or Wingback Beds? How to Decide

Choosing between a king size bed and a wingback bed is less straightforward than it sounds, because the two terms describe different things. King size refers to the mattress, while wingback refers to a headboard with side panels that wrap around the pillows. Many wingback designs are made in king size, so the real question is which headboard style suits your room. In this guide we explain how winged headboards add width and height, how to work out the space left for bedside tables, and why ceiling height matters when a headboard is tall. We compare comfort for reading in bed, the visual weight each style brings, and how fabric choices such as velvet, bouclé and linen change the look. You will also find advice on cleaning, everyday practicalities and getting a large headboard up the stairs, followed by a simple three question test to help you decide with confidence....
