Top Trends: Poster Beds that Impress

Your master bedroom should reflect your personality and the style of bed you choose makes the first impression. Poster beds feature added height with four posts at the headboard and footboard. Some poster beds also include alternate height posts to create a unique look. Around the Washington DC metropolitan area, we are certainly accustomed to large homes with grand master bedrooms. Architectural details often include tray ceilings and sitting area extensions to add depth and grandeur to the room where dreams are made. To fill these luxurious rooms, the style of bed you choose speaks to your personality and a poster bed seems to be the perfect fit for the tall ceilings and grand details.

While many poster beds feature a traditional style with antique inspired details, there are more transitional and contemporary styles available too.
