This is a custom made, you need an ID firm or contractor to do this for you, and the truth is,

this design is expensive, can be cheaper but different materials can be used.

any idea whr cn i get it done cheaper? any contractor?

Hi all,

I was previously looking for nice headboard designs too and came across exactly the same one posted here.

My opinion is..it's really very nice but it may be outdated in no time? So being conservative, I went for a safer bet. It looks boring and uninteresting tho. Here it is...

Pardon for the darkness cos I only switched on two led downlights in this pic.

The concept of making such a headboard is actually really simple, it just requires time, and a bit of patience. Simply find plywood that fits the required size, and foam padding, and cloth of your choice, with a staple gun and perhaps a weekend or two, you should be able to save a lot.

And some DIY links for those who are interested:
