1. Measure your mattress dimensions, adding 2–3 inches on the outer edges for a deliberate wooden border.
  2. Assemble a low-profile slatted pine or light oak platform frame directly over a non-slip rug pad.
  3. Dress the mattress in rumpled, unbleached organic linen bedding in ivory or soft oatmeal.
  4. Keep the headboard space minimal—use a simple wooden ledge behind the frame rather than a bulky upholstered headboard.
