Headboards between 70 and 100cm from the floor are generally considered low. The most minimal designs sit at around 70 to 80cm, which is level with or slightly above the pillows. Standard headboards typically start at around 100 to 110cm.
A headboard of around 90 to 100cm from the floor reaches roughly shoulder height when sitting up in bed, which is sufficient for comfortable leaning. Headboards below 80cm are better suited to those who tend to lie down rather than sit up in bed regularly.
