Two windows can frame a bed beautifully, but the right styling depends on the room’s architecture and the amount of light it receives. A tall headboard may sit below petite windows, while a lower bed can leave intricate molding or high frames visible. From farmhouse spaces to coastal and modern bedrooms, these ideas make the window wall feel intentional.
Basement Window Bed Placement
In this split-level home, the bed is centered underneath the basement windows, while the high window frames stay clear of the headboard. Two lamps and two matching nightstands frame the bed. Full-size drapes cover the basement windows and mimic the look of a full-sized window structure.
Bed With an Artistic Shelf
Use sheer curtains on only one wall to keep the arrangement symmetrical. The leather headboard has a shelf above it, and that shelf displays two coordinated plant paintings. The accent colors are white, brown, and blue.
Christmas Bed Window Setting
Between two windows sits an antique poster bed in the farmhouse bedroom. The bed is covered with plaid bedding in black and white. White farmhouse furniture is nearby, with a red accent in the room. Flocked garland decorates the curtain rods.
Small Windows with Tall Ceilings
Three petite windows sit high in a room with a vaulted ceiling. Striped window shades cover them without blocking the board-and-batten wall design, making them less obstructive than curtains for the wall treatment. Below the windows, a creamy white headboard sits between two brown nightstands.
Farmhouse Bed Under Petite Windows
Board-and-batten walls surround two petite, fully exposed windows with intricate molding and three panes each. A farmhouse bed sits directly below them, so the bedroom can take in morning light if the extra exposure is acceptable.
Off-Center Bed Between Windows
A small foyer in the entry area can hold seating or a desk. In this moody, rectangular boho bedroom, the bed sits off-center between the windows, with the nightstands off-center as well. That placement preserves floor space.
Curtains That Match the Headboard
Two curtain panels match the headboard and cover the windows. The white sheer panel provides window coverage while allowing daylight into the room. Gray blackout panels can help support a dark bedroom at nighttime.
Black Metal Poster Bed
Across the room, two windows are close in height to the black metal poster bed. Curtain rods match the bed’s material and color, while bedding frames the bed.
Cool Gray Bedroom Suite
The bed sits between four light curtain panels hanging over paned windows in a cool gray bedroom suite. The furniture set has exposed grain. If a third window is available and the room has access to abundant natural light, use the same curtains beside the room window, where they can also cover that third window.
Deep-Toned Bed Between Windows
A bed sits between two windows fitted with two white blinds. Its deep-toned headboard and the matching deep-toned nightstands sit alongside bedding with intricate detail. Curtains can replace the window blinds, and abundant natural light permits the use of deep-toned furnishings.
Blue Walls and Cream Curtains
Wall art hangs between the curtains, either as word art or a landscape portrait. The bed sits between the windows, with the painted light blue wall highlighting it. Cream semi-sheer curtains cover the windows, and a soft gray headboard finishes the bed. Coordinate the bedding and decor with the wall art.
French Farmhouse Bedroom Between Windows
The French farmhouse bedroom uses symmetry, with two centered ornate lamps sitting on matching white-and-gold nightstands. The bed has an antique headboard and ruffled bedding, while a small wreath hangs above the headboard. A delicate crystal chandelier completes the room.
American Farmhouse Bedroom Between Windows
A gallery wall hangs above the vintage metal bedframe. The American farmhouse bed rests between two windows, with the windows framing it. Textured sheer curtains cover both windows and let in subtle morning light. Most of the room elements are antique, including a repurposed armoire placed along one side of the room.
Bedroom with a Tray Ceiling
The relatively square room has two tray ceilings. They complement the bed and flooring while highlighting the bed between the two windows. Semi-sheer foldable blinds cover the windows and allow light in all day.
Board and Batten Wall by the Windows
The bedroom uses a soft white and beige fall palette, with neutral bedding and white curtains. A board-and-batten wall behind the bed frames the two windows and backs the bedding. The bedframe is warm brown, matched by two matching side tables. The board-and-batten wall should have a gentle, textured look.
Bedroom with a Shuttered Window Wall
At the window wall, two narrow windows are covered by white plantation shutters. The shutters open and close easily and block light during evening hours. A black bedframe holds various Bohemian accent pillows, while the shutters complement black decor designs.
Coastal Bedroom Framing Windows
Two windows with shutters frame the bed. A tray ceiling rises above the room, which uses a coastal blue and coastal green palette. The shutters can open toward the beach, allowing a beach breeze in if open.
Warm Room with Open Windows
Across the room, three open windows frame a brown headboard. Fabric blinds can move up or down to adjust for the time of day, while their design permits the ornate window molding to show. Brown hardwood flooring runs below, with minimal wall decor.
Windows with Black Panes
The centered black-framed headboard stands underneath the pitched roof. Thin black panes fill the windows, and the window design fits a modern, newly built home. No drapes or curtains are used.
Landscape Art Between Windows
Choose a landscape scene with personal significance, such as this Paris painting featuring the Eiffel Tower. It hangs above the bed, which sits between two windows in a modern farmhouse bedroom. Two upscale nightstands with reflective surfaces and a mid-century light fixture complete the room’s elements.
Bedroom Bed Against Pink Curtains
A soft sage accent wall is paired with two bright pink curtains, which add color through the window area. The bed is white with waffle-knit bedding, and the furniture is white and antique. The room remains relatively neutral and bright, so colored bedding is not required.
