Placing your bed on a platform is an effective way to define your sleep space. It replaces the need for a box-spring mattress and adds a style element you won’t find in many other places.

Here are 8 examples of platform beds being used to make these bedrooms a step above the rest.

1. This sleeping area has been separated from the rest of the space by being placed on a platform and partially enclosed by raised wood edges.
