Children's Rooms: Built-in Beds and Bunks

From Janet

In an ideal world, we would all sleep in cocoon-like environments. We have an enduring fascination with built-in bed solutions. Here's a roundup of architect-designed nocturnal niches:

This is a very impressive collection of built-in beds and bunk beds. Not only were the designs beautiful, the decorating and photography were top flight.

Berman's look like they should be for a euthanasia center, but still a very nice collection.

I like the peacefulness

Here is a great built in bed that is quite literally nestled into the end of a cocoon shaped building designed by Architects, Bellemo & Cat from Melbourne, Australia. Amazingly serene to sleep in, and beautifully sculptural.

Here is the link: http://www.bellemocat.com/images/residential/cocoon/010.jpg

Or for the whole building: http://www.bellemocat.com/residential/cocoon/

Do you sell plans for any of these bunk bed designs? We particularly like the one labeled "Double Bunks for a Crowd".

posted by Kyle Collins on 04/14/2009 at 06:07 pm


I love these beds. Is it possible to make a built in Queen sized? Does that make it hard to make the bed up? And do you need a box spring, or just a mattress?
