I’m working on some plans for a king sized bed and thought I’d drop in for some feedback from the forum. My main concerns right now are the height of the mattress vs. the footboard and the use of supports beneath the bed.
– In the attached picture, the height from the top of the footboard to the mattress top is 4.5″ to the top of the actual mattress (i.e. it does not consider the bedding).
– I am planning to use a single support leg in the center of the bed with a longitudinal slat connected to the regular latitudinal slats.
The majority of the wood will be walnut, with all the panels made of mdf cored “goldply” walnut 3/4″ plywood.
Feedback would be appreciated!

It's kind of difficult to tell due to the weird perspective in the isometric view but the bed looks like it is wider than it is long. It also looks kind of squat. I'm guessing with a proper perspective view that would change.
I think I'd make the foot board a little taller than the top of the mattress and bedding.
What are the dark lines on the side rail?
Can you apply a walnut material to all of the surfaces? You could probably get a better feel for it that way.
