How to Choose the Perfect Bedside to Match Your Bed : A Guide by Abide Interiors

Creating a beautiful bedroom starts with harmony – and nothing elevates the space quite like the perfect pairing of a stunning bed with a complementary bedside table. At Abide Interiors, we design bedroom furniture with the intention that many of our beds and bedsides can be matched together seamlessly. From perfect pairings like our Koa, Castaway, Fernando, and Hamilton collections, to mix-and-match combinations that express your personal style, we offer endless ways to create a bedroom that feels cohesive, refined, and uniquely yours.

Mix & Match: When Contrast Creates Magic

Although many Abide Interiors products are designed to complement each other, mixing styles and finishes can create equally beautiful results.

Match Your Timbers for Natural Harmony

If you prefer consistency, choosing the same timber species across your bed and bedsides creates a warm, cohesive feel. For example:

The Clovelly Bed, crafted from premium American oak, pairs beautifully with:

Lisette Bedside (American oak)
Cora Bedside (American oak)
Clovelly Bedside (perfect material and colour match)

Matching timber tones helps the room feel unified, calm, and visually soft.

Experiment with Contrasting Colours & Textures

If you love a bolder, more designer look, contrasting finishes can create depth and character.

The Newhaven Bedside Table in Navy looks striking and modern when styled with the Milford Oak Bed offering a rich contrast of light oak against deep navy.

This approach ties in beautifully with homes that feature layered textures, statement colours, or eclectic styling.

Why Upholstered Beds Offer Unlimited Flexibility

One of the most versatile choices in bedroom design is an upholstered bed, because it pairs effortlessly with almost any bedside table material or finish.

Some of our favourite combinations include:

Milo Upholstered Bed paired with the Koa Bedside in Teak

A balance of plush comfort and natural timber warmth.

Paddington Upholstered Bed paired with the Cora Bedside in American Oak

Soft fabric meets refined oak to create a layered, luxurious look.

Harvey Upholstered Bedhead paired with the Harlow Bedside in Natural or the Eden Bedside in Black

A bold, modern contrast that adds depth and sophistication to the space.

Whether you prefer timber, rattan, painted finishes, or darker accents, upholstered beds make mixing styles easy and always elegant.

Whether you opt for a matching bedroom suite or a curated mix of textures and tones, the most important thing is to choose pieces that reflect your style and create balance within the room.

At Abide Interiors, our range of handcrafted timber furniture, sculptural bed frames, and stylish upholstered designs ensures you’ll always find a combination that elevates your bedroom into a calm, cohesive, and beautiful retreat.
