Most people who are older remember using white bunk beds at some point in their life. This may have been because of the need to share a room with siblings. Or, it may have been due to the convenience that bunk beds provided at an affordable price for growing families. It has not been until the last few years that bunk beds have again began to see an increase in popularity.
Many families with children find that the popular themes for decorating a room change on a regular basis. Many times this means completely changing the color of the room as well as the furnishings to match the decor. Beds are one of the largest investments that a family makes for a child's room and buying a new bed to match a changing decor theme can become very expensive.
With the advancement of technology and laser production, white bunkbeds have evolved beyond the rather plain box shape that they were years ago. These beds now are designed with an eye toward the needs of an individual who may be redecorating a room several times over the course of years that the bed will be in use. The beds are equipped with areas that will allow pops of color to be changed out to accommodate changing styles and decor.
The desk, dresser, and closet option that is provided in a white bunk bed solves many problems that face a family trying to incorporate all the items needed by a child. A desk below the bed does not require extra space to provide a functional and fashionable place to do homework. A dresser built in to the bed allows for storage of toys and items that may otherwise be cluttering the space or using precious room within the area.
Many bunk beds are now built with storage areas under the bottom bunk. These areas are large enough to accommodate two drawers and often provide ample room for visitors to store their belongings or for the residents of the room to share space for clothing or toys. When chilren are in a combined family these storage areas are an excellent area to keep items that remain in the home when they are gone.
When children are part of a combined family and spend part of their time in another residence, a white bunk bed offers them the opportunity to always have their own bed which houses their special toys or keepsakes. The captain's storage area also allows children to share a room without the need for two dressers and two nightstands. In a smaller room this frees up additional space that makes the room look much larger.
Creating the feeling of space in a small room that must accommodate toys and hobby items can be very difficult. It is important that there be a place for all of these items and yet, in most cases, there is just not room for all of them. With a white bunk bed that has built in storage units at each end, or below the bunk there is not only a place to put items, but also a feeling of roominess when one enters the room.
