Each of the three bedrooms in the apartment interior has wood accents, either a full wall or partial wall, however, it’s the backlit headboards that create a nice design feature.

The hidden LED lighting follows a horizontal line around the walls of the bedrooms, creating a calming atmosphere, ideal for a bedroom.
