Warmth and character in your bedroom: how to combine metal, wood, and textiles

A metal bed is the perfect foundation for a bedroom with character. Learn how to use natural materials and soft fabrics to create a warm balance between elegance and comfort.

Metal as a stylish base

Metal exudes strength, elegance, and timelessness. Yet it doesn't have to feel cold—especially when combined with natural materials. A metal bed frame brings structure and stability to the room and can be easily combined with warm accents.

Our Moderno Chico collection demonstrates this perfectly. Models such as Cudillero and Tivoli combine a metal frame with refined wooden details, creating a natural harmony between sleek design and homely warmth.

Wood for natural warmth

Wood brings balance to spaces where metal plays the leading role. Choose walnut, oak, or cherry wood to add depth and warmth. Wood creates a refined, inviting atmosphere, especially in bedrooms with lots of light or neutral walls.

Textiles soften the whole look

Use soft fabrics to create contrast. Linen curtains, a woolen throw, or a high-quality rug soften the lines of the metal frame. Bed linen in natural shades such as cream, taupe, or rust also helps to bring calm and warmth to the room.

Colors that work

  • Neutral base: Cream, sand, and light gray create calm and allow materials to speak for themselves.
  • Warm accents: Deep brown, ochre, rust, and terracotta add warmth.
  • Contrast: A black metal bed like Tivoli stands out beautifully against soft, warm wall colors.
