There are a lot of beautiful modern bed frames available on the market. However, we are serial DIYers, so instead of buying one, we decided to design and DIY a platform bed.

The design is a simple modern DIY platform bed frame with no exposed hardware, tapered bed legs, chamfered edges for a high-quality look, and durable yet functional so it can be used forever. Make sure to check out our wall-mounted headboard with floating nightstands to pair perfectly with this bed frame.
