The 4 kids bunk beds style: First and foremost – keep it pastel. And second – light it up well. This style uses a column in one corner or the room, out of which 2 bunks extrude on one side, and 2 on the other. A small corner of the column makes room for shelves for knickknacks. The lower bunks have storage space and edges have ladders. Very smart way to create space for 4 kids living in the same room! The headboards have lights for keeping it bright.

House of 3 kids: How about placing two twin beds side by side and hanging a third to 90 degrees of twin beds about a good 5 feet higher? The staircase runs up from between the twin beds. It looks superb in a room with a slanted roof. No storage integrated but great way to contain 3 kids without going too high one upon the other, and also, not blocking-up the whole ceiling.

2 kids bunk idea: Generally, double decked standard bunk comes in a very ordinary design. One bed over the other and a ladder to go to the top bed! Boring!!! Go for this spectacular design. The ladder is replaced with comfortable stair with steps, the upper bed has stylish safety rail, storage for both top and bottom beds and snug bed size. Who wouldn’t want all of that?
