An elegant solution to offer guests: well-designed, stackable twin beds. Each complete with a mattress and a low profile, the beds stack up as one single bed and, when separated, can pair side by side for a double bed or stand alone as singles. More commonly found in European households where space is hard to come by, the stackable bed also works well for children’s rooms where siblings or sleepovers call for more than one bed. Here are our 10 favorites.
