The Versatility of a Beds Loft

A beds loft is very popular for college students with smaller dorm rooms. It is also becoming popular at home for youth as well as teens and tweens.

Ideally, the loft bed will be able to be placed on a wall that is not blocking doors or windows. You need to leave enough space around the bed frame loft for people to move around easily.

Ladder

The ladder in a beds loft is the furniture piece that provides access to the sleeping area above. The ladder is usually bent at an angle that allows climbing up and down simple and enjoyable for both children and adults. It can be made from metal or wood, and comes in a variety of colors, finishes and styles. The ladder of an loft bed is a versatile component that can be used in many different ways, depending on the layout and design of the room.

Lofted beds are the ideal way to maximize space in small space. They are ideal to create a playroom, study nook or even a bedroom above a living area like in a studio apartment. They are also popular with college students, who often reside in shared apartments. If they're fitted with desks, storage, and seating they can be turned into mini-homes.

A twin bunk bed with an added ladder is among the most popular loft options. This is a great option for a girl's or a boy's bedroom and can be decorated with vibrant wall decor to suit the theme. A matching set of drawers can be positioned underneath the bunks to provide ample storage space.

A full size loft bed with ladder is also a good option for a teenager or adult bedroom. It is a sturdy, durable bed with a sleek and contemporary style that is compatible with the majority of decorating styles. The type of loft is an entire mattress that is supported by solid wood slats, which allow air to circulate to keep the mattress clean. The ladder is positioned on the side of the bed to provide safety and security.

Some loft beds can be used with a desk, workstation or any other device that can be positioned beneath the bed. This gives you a place to do homework, crafts and other pursuits. These beds can be purchased with a matching hutch, drawers or a free-standing deluxe desk. The hutch and drawers may be separated from the bed if needed so that the loft is usable even when the drawers and hutch are not used.

Stairs

A loft bed with stairs offers an interesting alternative to a straight ladder. The stairs can be used to store items like books, toys or stuffed animals. This is a huge boon for kids who often do not put things away or get frustrated when they can't find what they want. Some loft beds are full with drawers that are built into the stairs, or a desk underneath the top bunk.

Stairs are another way to bring a theme into the child's bedroom. You could, for example, install a fireman’s pole in the bedroom of a boy who is a fan to play with fire. For example you could choose a finish made of barnwood for girls who are fond of the Old West. Or, drapes that resemble royalty for girls that are big Harry Potter fans. A wooden or metal loft bed with stairs can be stained or painted to match the rest of a room's decor.

Some full loft beds with stairs are designed to fit a twin mattress on the top and a queen-sized mattress at the bottom. They are a classic design that blends well with most styles of homes. They come with paneled headboards as well as feetboards as well as the possibility of a closet or chest at the bottom. This type of loft bed has drawers with a mushroom-like dark pull and plenty of room to store clothing and other items.

Loft beds with stairs that can be fitted with a large platform for the bottom bunk are great for teens and college students who live in tiny apartment or work at home. They're available in a range of frame colors and can include guard rails that outline the entire bed to stop those who roll over in their sleep from falling to the floor below. Some come with a built-in desk and a wardrobe for clothing, books, or storage containers.

For teenagers and older children who do often with homework, full-size loft beds which are geared towards desks are a great option. These loft beds have an ample space underneath the loft that can accommodate the desk of a good size and set of slim drawers for pencils and textbooks. These loft beds typically come in a neutral or a darker shade, so that they go with most furniture and decor styles.

Slide

A slide is a fun way to transform an old bed into a kids' playroom. Slides are available in a variety of colors and finishes to match any bedroom decor. They can be fitted to high and low lofts as well as bunk beds. Children love to slide down from their loft beds, and this add-on is a must for those looking to transform their sleeping space into a play area.

Some loft beds have a slide built-in and ladder, while others have the ladder on one side of the frame. The latter is more suitable for those with a less space as it doesn't occupy an additional area of floor. It's a safer choice for young children, as they can use it with ease and it will stop them from climbing too high.

You can choose a loft bed with storage space if you are looking to keep your bedroom free of any furniture. This is a great option for those living in a small apartment or bungalow, or even a house. You can pick from a wide range of designs, including those with drawers, shelves or open shelves. Depending on your needs there are models that include an office desk and computer nook, which makes them the perfect choice for students or adults who work from home.

Loft beds with desks are great for studying and homework particularly when you don't have a separate study room. The room can be decorated with a stylish chair and floating shelves to store books. You can also add an image rail for photographs and also add a table, chairs and art materials, as well as an enormous bookcase for more storage space.

A trundle bed is added to a loft style that is popular. This is ideal for guests who require an extra bed. This allows you to make the most of your child's bedroom while making it clutter-free.

Built-in Desk or Workstation

If you do not want to go through the burden of a ladder or a set of stairs look into a loft bed with a built in desk/workstation. This allows for a quiet space to read, study or do homework in the middle of the bedroom. If dorm rules allow it, a loft bed that has an built-in desk is an ideal option for college bound teens. A twin loft bunk bed with desk bed with desk is an ideal option for kids who need their own space to play or study.

A bed loft is the close cousin of a bunk bed that's usually used for children. A bunk bed is comprised of two mattresses that are stacked on top of one another. A loft bed has one mattress that is supported by supports, leaving the floor space below open for use as a bedroom, playroom or office.

Similar to bunk beds, loft beds can be constructed with a variety of styles to suit any decor. They are available in a range of finishes, including natural wood, cherry, maple or walnut. Others are made of classic white or a range of vibrant colors that can easily be combined with other pieces of furniture in your home. In terms of cost loft beds generally cost more than a traditional bunk bed but less than a mezzanine style queen-sized bed.

Loft beds can be utilized in any room but they're especially useful in smaller rooms like guest cottages or studio apartments. They're a great option to create an extra bedroom without taking up the same floor space as a regular bed with a separate desk and dresser.

Make sure that your ceilings accommodate a loft bed before you buy one. It is recommended that the minimum height should be 96 inches which is 4 inches higher than an 8-foot standard ceiling. If you have lower ceilings such as a mezzanine or a bunk style loft bed may be more suitable for your space. You can always add a bookcase or storage unit below the bed to increase the storage space and work space available.
