A headboard isn't always necessary to make a bedroom feel complete.

Sometimes there's already something worth looking at.

In this restored mid-century home, a warm wood wall, generous windows, and a pair of white Kartell nightstands set the scene. A dark Keeps bed frame slips right in, letting the architecture take the lead.

We've seen the same idea in other mid-century homes, where built-in shelving and original architectural details do the work of a traditional headboard.

A simple, well-designed oak bed frame can be all you need.

And if you change your mind? The Keeps Headboard can always be added later.

Start with the bed frame, live with it for a while, and decide what the room needs.

Good design leaves room for possibilities.
