Our Picks
Upholstered Japanese Platform Bed Frame
Modway Inc.
Instantly transform your bedroom landscape by fusing Western and Japanese style with a platform bed with an upholstered headboard. Unlike Western-style beds, Japanese bed frames are low to the floor, for an inconspicuous look. Upholstered headboards make the bed a more prominent feature and add soft textures to contrast the hard, chiseled wooden frame.
If you’re looking to fill a large bedroom, consider choosing a platform with attached matching nightstands. The added width grounds the room and creates a sense of coziness. Plus, it saves you the job of looking for matching low-level nightstands!

Modern Grey Upholstered Japanese Bed Frame with Built In Nightstands
Limari Home
Looking for a Japanese Zen bed frame to suit a modern, gray bedroom decor? Try an upholstered sunken platform bed in a muted gray color palette. Whilst textiles are kept to a minimum in traditional Japanese interior design, upholstered bed frames are increasingly popular in modern interiors. This is because of their inherent softness and array of colors and textures, for added personalization.
Japanese minimalism prefers natural floor materials, such as wood and stone. However, to create a cozy atmosphere in the bedroom, you can use textile floor coverings or rugs in natural materials such as straw, jute, sisal, or wool.
