Just bought a bunch of Afrormosia to build a new bed for my wife. It's going to be relatively modern in aesthetic (leaning towards midcentury) and look something like:

...except the legs on that which I find hideous.
My main question has to do with how to design the sides and side drawers to maintain maximum strength in the frame. Should I simply treat it as a regular bed frame with the strength being provided completely by the strut above the drawers? I'm thinking both the vertically aligned strut above the drawers and a horizontally aligned strut below them makes the most sense to maintain rigidity.
Thoughts?
