DESIGN INTENT
The intent of design is to create a bedroom with a space for children to sleep, read and play. Since the existing floor area is small for two children, by proposing twin bunk bed with attached desk and ladder, a bed similar to KALI DUO BOARD 2200, which is foldable and saves a lot of space. A customized full height cupboard with sliding panels is proposed for hanging adult size clothes and store children toys, books and accessories. Since enough daylight is entering from the existing window, a set of hanging lights with medium intensity is provided for children to read during night. For seating, two stools have been provided so that the children can use it while reading and relaxing. The Interior wall color is more focused to keep neutral and calm.
The twin bunk bed is a multi-purpose furniture, which with a simple movement is transformed into the night version without removing anything from the desk top which tilts and positions horizontally under the lower bed. It can also be used as one bed and a reading desk at the same time or both beds can be closed to make the room bigger. A ladder is fixed to both the beds and also acts as an additional support.
The product “Kali duo board 2200” is available for shipping in Italy and it comes without desk also. The interesting thing about this bunk bed design is its mechanism, because the product can be built at home and can be customized with various types of wood.
Bunk bed has played a main role in design, by saving and giving priority to children space.
A customized cupboard is designed to use full height of the room. Sliding panels have been provided instead of the traditional swinging panels to utilize full space. Cupboard includes storage for hanging adult size clothes and children’s accessories. The design is proposed for a lifespan of 8 to 10 yrs. So the children can use the room for long period and grow up together with good memories in a calm environment.
