How to Choose the Best Bunk Bed Design Bunk beds are an excellent addition to bedrooms shared by children or a guest room. They can also add storage space and make the room seem larger. Some bunk beds come with ladders, which Fenton says are easier to climb than stairs. Some have trundles at the bottom to accommodate extra sleepovers. Some bunks can accommodate twin XL beds and full mattresses, making them great for older children as well as adults. 1. Keeping It Simple It isn't necessary for a bunk bed to be the centerpiece of an area. In fact, it's usually better to have it as a backdrop item and allow other elements such as storage, artwork and other furniture to take centre stage. This simple bunk design- which features beds that have matching headboards and footboards -is a great example. A lot of bunk beds are built into walls. This makes them appear less like an addition and more like permanent fixtures in the room. Although built-in bunks look stunning, you can still find beautiful freestanding designs. For instance, this one is constructed from wood but uses pipe fittings to make the ladder and railing. Kee Klamp fittings such as the Single Socket Tee and Flange Elbow can be used to construct the same structure. Bunk beds are the ideal solution for sharing a child's bedroom, particularly in a smaller home. To maximize space, think about a staggered layout that sleeps two in the top bed but leaves plenty of floor space below for playing, studying and storage.
