Designing kid's bedrooms requires more than just aesthetic sense. It is where they will be spending considerable time when they are not in school. You have to design this space so the siblings have their individual space apart from the shared area. This room should reflect their personality. It is a common misconception that there is little that you can do when the size of the room is small. Depending on the requirements, here are some practical solutions to get to your kids' room.

Go vertical: Experts suggest that when the horizontal space does not suffice, you should get creative and go vertical instead. This is how high-rise buildings, vertical farming, and smaller amazing inventions like Bunk beds were made. It is the easiest and most fun way to get two kids in the same room and build a bond without disturbing their personal space. While many options are available in the market, you must list your priorities to pick and choose the bunk bed that works best for you.

For example, for those with a single child but not a big enough room to accommodate all their belongings, you can go ahead for a bunk bed with a desk underneath. The area below the bed becomes your sanctuary to keep your belongings, favorite books, and reading space. When you feel sleepy, climb on the top bunk and sleep off all your tiredness in the cozy nook of the room. In other cases you can also get a contractor to design an L shaped bunk bed that can accommodate both your kids and give them space underneath for their desks. It is one of the underrated ways to organize a room and use vertical space to the maximum.

Leveled storage units: Another great way to keep all your belongings in the same room is to turn the stairs for the bunk bed into storage drawers. You can use drawer organizers to keep your things in place. If, due to a lack of space, you have to use a ladder instead of stairs, you can still use the area below the bunk bed as a storage unit or a pull-out drawer. It is easy to keep your clothes in these big drawers.

Color scheme in the room: Dark tones and big graphic wallpapers can make a small room look even smaller. If you plan to redesign the kids' room, use lighter shades and wallpapers with small prints. This will give the illusion of a bigger room, and when the natural light bounces off these colors on the wall, it fills the room with positive energy. Wooden bunk beds also fit in with lighter color schemes and give an elegant look to the room.

Use baskets for toy storage: Toys cluttered on the floor can make the room look disorganized. Use baskets to keep the toys in check. Once the kids are done playing, baskets are an easy alternative to wrap up the toys quickly. You can push it in the almirah or the space underneath the bed.

If you are using a raised bed with a desk underneath, you are bound to have a lot of space left over that can be used to keep the baskets in place. It will be easily accessible for the kids, and you don't need to worry about cleaning the room constantly once the kids are done.

These spaces can be utilized for bigger kids as book storage areas with shelves. You can also arrange for low seating beside the desk so the kids can sit comfortably and use a throw in this cozy nook.

Standard furniture size: One way to save on your kids' room is to opt for standard-sized essentials. Beds made to standard sizes mean your kids will only outgrow them soon, and you can ask them to use the same bed for years. Custom wooden bunk beds, for instance, are vibrant and blend well with modern or contemporary decor. They're easy to manage and an eco-friendly option that can be reused once your kids move out.

Consider investing in multifunctional furniture: The possibilities are endless: a desk that doubles as a bedside table, a bunk bed with a desk underneath, a pull-out chair that can be used as a ladder, and stairs that double as storage. Whether you tap into your creativity, browse the internet for ideas, or hire a specialist, multifunctional furniture is a game-changer in small spaces, maximizing functionality and saving space.

Don't feel limited by the space you can offer your growing children. When designing your room, the world of creativity is at your fingertips. But here's a tip: involve your kids in the process. Their ideas can be surprisingly resourceful, and it's a great way to empower them and make the space truly personalized.
