The 12 Best Storage Beds Our Designers Swear By to Make the Most of Any Space

You can’t always control the amount of closet space you have in your home. But when it comes to finding sneaky storage solutions, designers know the tricks of the trade exceedingly well. One classic standby Havenly’s team of interior experts turn to again and again is the storage bed.

The best storage beds have drawers built into their structure, so you can easily tuck away extra linens, off-season clothing, and more — without having to worry about concealing boxes and bins with a bed skirt. Best of all, they’re designed to look streamlined and intentional; some have drawers that are so smartly concealed that pulling them out can almost double as a magic trick.

So, when you’re working with limited square footage and you don’t have ample room in your closets to stash away everything you want out of sight, a storage bed can make a great — and stylish — solution. Here are the best storage beds on the market right now, according to Havenly designer Kelsey Fischer.

1. Best Storage Beds: Interior Define Graham Bed

If you want endless color and fabric options to choose from, Interior Define’s upholstered Graham bed may be your best bet.

2. Best Storage Beds: Pottery Barn Astoria Storage Platform Bed

Talk about subtle! If you prefer your bed to not sit too close to the ground, but you still want to get a bit more storage out of it, this Pottery Barn bed frame is a great option.

Contrasting tones make Pottery Barn’s Ezra storage bed a unique piece for a modern bedroom. Black accents, paired with walnut wood, lend this piece a slightly moody vibe. With four drawers that each pull out on one side of the bed, it’s a great choice for getting maximum storage space.
