Platform Bed Advantages

A teen platform bed serves as both your bed frame and your box spring. As a result, you will invest in one less piece for the new bed. Simply place the mattress directly on the platform bed to complete your set and create a comfortable spot to sleep.

Platform Bed Basics

Teen platform beds in this collection feature an all-in-one design, combining a sturdy bed frame with a built-in headboard for a uniform look. Many of these teen bed frames sit on tapered legs, while others are built on sturdy bases. Both styles are strong and stable. These platform beds are crafted of durable materials, such as poplar wood and engineered wood. Each bed comes in several sizes, including twin, full and queen, so select the size that suits your space.

Other Features

Pottery Barn Teen's platform beds boast plenty of practical features that deliver both function and style. Discover the intricate design details built into these styles, such as headboards featuring hexagonal cutouts, plank accents, curved silhouettes and channel-stitched touches. These beds come in a variety of versatile finishes as well, including natural wood, gray and Pottery Barn Teen white, a classic off-white hue. Hand-finished accents and weathered detailing enhance some of these beds. When selecting a finish, consider the finishes of other bedroom furniture, including dressers and nightstands.

In addition, some styles of platform beds maximize storage space in any room. Built-in storage includes under-bed drawers or cubbies perfect for storing books, clothes or extra linens. Headboards can feature sliding cabinet doors for concealed storage or open shelf space, which offers a convenient spot to store those everyday essentials like electronic devices or display decorative accessories. Other platform beds include expansive storage units that surround the bed, creating a room that is better organized and more functional. Accent some of these cubbies and shelves with baskets and bins to create hidden storage solutions.
