Trying to figure out plans for this bed frame (slrpnk.net)

It is time i finally get a bed frame, my wife and i both like this one. It looks like something i can build myself.

I would love to try building this with as few nails/screws as possible. It is for a King Sized bed.

Serious answer to an unserious question, but you could drop the bed slats by 10-15mm to “tuck” the mattress into the frame and stop it from sliding around during rigorous nighttime activities.

IMO, this would look better too. Maybe as much as 50mm, but no further. Otherwise it might be tough to get the fitted sheet on/off.
