<h3>1. Design a beach house bunk room with white, blue, and wood tones</h3>
<a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/frankie-wood-twin-over-twin-bunk-bed-van-courtland-blue-and-natural"><img style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-181865" src="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/wp-content/uploads/Frankie-Wood-Twin-Over-Twin-Bunk-Bed-Van-Courtland-Blue-and-Natural-1.jpg" alt="Bunk room ideas: Frankie Wood Twin Over Twin Bunk Bed Van Courtland Blue and Natural" width="1200" height="857" /></a>
 
Bunk rooms are a great addition to vacation homes because they allow you to sleep more people in a small space. But even if you’re designing a bunk room to sleep multiple kids or guests in your all-the-time house, you can create those vacation vibes with <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/coastal-decor">coastal decor</a>.
 
Incorporate shades of white, blue, and wood tones to bring a beachy feel to any space. Add a white shiplap wall, and you’ll feel like you’ve escaped to the cape every time you walk into your guest room or kids’ bunk room. The <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/frankie-wood-twin-over-twin-bunk-bed-van-courtland-blue-and-natural">Frankie Wood Twin Over Twin Bunk Bed</a> is perfect for coastal-inspired interior design with its blue and natural wood tones. It’s also available in <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/frankie-wood-twin-over-twin-bunk-bed-white-and-natural">white and natural wood tones</a>.
<h3>2. Create a classic camp-style bunk room with minimalist bunk beds</h3>
<a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/morgan-twin-over-twin-bunk-bed-black"><img style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-181867" src="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/wp-content/uploads/Morgan-Metal-Twin-Over-Twin-Bunk-Bed-Black.jpg" alt="Bunk room ideas: Morgan Metal Twin Over Twin Bunk Bed Black" width="1200" height="1200" /></a>
 
Nothing is as comforting as nostalgia. If you have fond childhood memories of the bunkhouse at your sleepaway camp, let it inspire your bunk room design. You can create a comforting look with a classic metal-framed bunk bed like the <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/morgan-twin-over-twin-bunk-bed-black">Morgan Metal Twin Over Twin Bunk Bed in Black</a>. Or you can opt for a minimalist wood frame, like the <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/rhea-wood-twin-over-twin-bunk-bed-grey">Rhea Wood Twin Over Twin Bunk Bed in Grey</a>.
 
Add some black and white buffalo plaid bed linens and forest-animal-inspired throw pillows, and you’ll be living your grown-up camper dreams. This style pairs perfectly with a rustic home design. We love it for the guest bedroom in a cabin, and it works great for a boys’ room.
<h3>3. Make the bottom bunk more appealing with a twin-over-full bunk bed</h3>
<a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/trisha-wood-twin-over-full-bunk-bed-with-storage-drawers-grey"><img style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-181872" src="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/wp-content/uploads/Trisha-Wood-Twin-Over-Full-Bunk-Bed-with-Storage-Drawers-Grey-1.jpg" alt="Bunk room ideas: Trisha Wood Twin Over Full Bunk Bed with Storage Drawers Grey" width="1200" height="812" /></a>
 
If you’re adding bunk beds to a kids’ room, then you’re going to hear a lot of fighting over who gets the upper bunk. But you can make the lower bunk more appealing with this simple bunk room idea: Make the bottom bed bigger.
 
A twin-over-full bunk bed (like the <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/ashton-twin-over-full-2-drawer-bunk-bed-cappuccino">Ashton Twin Over Full 2-Drawer Bunk Bed</a> or the <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/trisha-wood-twin-over-full-bunk-bed-with-storage-drawers-grey">Trisha Wood Twin Over Full Bunk Bed With Storage Drawers</a>) fits a twin-size mattress on the top bunk and a full-size mattress on the bottom. Your older kid is sure to appreciate the extra space — so much so that they might be willing to let their younger sibling take the upper bunk without any argument at all.
<h3>4. Give everyone the top bunk with loft beds</h3>
<a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/parkview-full-workstation-loft-bed-black"><img style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-181869" src="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/wp-content/uploads/Parkview-Full-Workstation-Loft-Bed-Black.jpg" alt="Bunk room ideas: Parkview Full Workstation Loft Bed Black" width="1200" height="948" /></a>
 
You can really give the people what they want with loft beds. When you opt for loft beds over traditional bunk beds, everyone gets a top bunk. Loft beds still help you add extra sleeping space to a small bedroom because they leave the floor space underneath available for your other bedroom essentials.
 
You can style the space beneath your loft bed with a dresser or choose a loft bed with a built-in workspace, like the <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/parkview-full-workstation-loft-bed-black">Parkview Full Workstation Loft Bed</a>. You can also create a lounge area with bean bags or a futon below your loft. Or you can use all the floor space you’ve just reclaimed as a playroom for your kids or grandkids. Opening up that floor space opens up possibilities for so many more of your bunk room ideas.
<h3>5. Make your own bunk beds with a loft bed and a platform bed</h3>
<a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/fisher-2-piece-metal-workstation-loft-bed-set-gunmetal"><img style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-181864" src="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/wp-content/uploads/Fisher-2-piece-Metal-Workstation-Loft-Bed-Set-Gunmetal-2.jpg" alt="Fisher 2-piece Metal Workstation Loft Bed Set Gunmetal" width="1200" height="927" /></a>
 
Instead of having two bunks stacked on top of each other, like with traditional bunk beds, try this more creative bunk bed idea. Create an L-shaped design where the top bunk lines the wall while the bottom bunk sticks out into the room. The asymmetrical layout adds instant visual interest to your room design.
 
You can find bunk beds that are already set up this way, like the <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/fisher-2-piece-metal-workstation-loft-bed-set-gunmetal">Fisher 2-Piece Metal Workstation Loft Bed Set</a>. And because the <a href="https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/home-products/a34058112/bed-mattress-size-chart/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">length of a standard bed</a> is slightly wider than a queen bed, you can also DIY this design by pairing a twin or full-size loft bed with a twin, full, or queen bed underneath.
 
For example, you can combine the <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/twin-workstation-loft-bed">Anica 3-Shelf Wood Twin Loft Bed</a> with the <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/hounslow-twin-universal-platform-bed-cappuccino">Hounslow Twin Universal Platform Bed</a>. Even with three built-in shelves, there’s still room for a twin bed beneath this loft bed design.
<h3>6. Make room for more people with three bunks</h3>
<a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/sandler-twin-triple-bunk-bed-cappuccino"><img style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-181871" src="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/wp-content/uploads/Sandler-Twin-Triple-Bunk-Bed-Cappuccino-1.jpg" alt="Sandler Twin Triple Bunk Bed Cappuccino" width="1200" height="971" /></a>
 
You can turn your house into the “best sleepover house ever” by adding a third bed to your bunk room. A three-tier bunk bed, like the <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/maynard-metal-triple-twin-bunk-bed-gunmetal">Maynard Metal Triple Twin Bunk Bed</a> or the <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/sandler-twin-triple-bunk-bed-cappuccino">Sandler Twin Triple Bunk Bed</a>, will help you fit the maximum number of beds into an extra small room.
 
If you can fit <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/2-beds-in-one-small-room-ideas">two twin beds in your one small room</a>, then you can add two of these triple-tiered bunks for a room that sleeps six. (Now those are vacation home goals!)
 
If you have enough floor space, you can also get three beds into your bunk room by pairing a bunk bed with a trundle bed that slides out from beneath the bottom bunk. For example, you can add a <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/wrangle-hill-trundle-with-bunkie-mattress-amber-wash">matching wood trundle</a> to the <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/wrangle-hill-twin-over-twin-bunk-bed-amber-wash">Wrangle Hill Wood Twin Over Twin Bunk Bed</a>.
<h3>7. Add storage with built-in drawers</h3>
<a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/oliver-twin-over-twin-bunk-bed-java"><img style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-181868" src="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/wp-content/uploads/Oliver-Wood-Twin-Over-Twin-Bunk-Bed-Java.jpg" alt="Oliver Wood Twin Over Twin Bunk Bed Java" width="1200" height="888" /></a>
 
Storage is always a struggle in a small bedroom. And when you’re trying to fit as many beds as possible into your bunk room, storage space can suffer even more — unless you opt for bunk beds with built-in storage.
 
You can get bunk beds with storage cabinets underneath, like the <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/oliver-twin-over-twin-bunk-bed-java">Oliver Wood Twin Over Twin Bunk Bed</a>, or with storage drawers underneath, like the <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/kensington-twin-over-twin-bunk-bed-with-trundle-cappuccino">Kensington Twin Over Twin Bunk Bed With Trundle</a>.
 
For even more storage, some bunk beds allow you to add a set of stairs where each step has a drawer built-in. For example, the Wrangle Hill Bunk Bed is available with a <a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/wrangle-hill-4-drawer-stairway-chest-amber-wash">4-Drawer Stairway Chest</a>.
<h2>Bunks are the best idea</h2>
<a href="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/furniture/rhea-wood-twin-over-twin-bunk-bed-grey"><img style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" style="width:100%;" class="aligncenter wp-image-181870 size-full" src="https://www.coasterfurniture.com/wp-content/uploads/Rhea-Wood-Twin-Over-Twin-Bunk-Bed-Grey.jpg" alt="Rhea Wood Twin Over Twin Bunk Bed Grey" width="1200" height="812" /></a>
 
Not only do bunk beds allow you to sleep more people in one space — whether it’s a kids’ bedroom or the guest room in your vacation home — they also add versatility to your home design. You can arrange bunk beds in two or three tiers, add a trundle for additional sleep space, incorporate storage drawers and chairs, use loft beds to give you more play room, and so much more.
 
Bunk beds work in small bedrooms where they help you use your space more efficiently. And they work in large rooms where you can create the look of a sleepaway camp bunkhouse. You can do so much with your bunk room.
 
The above bunk room ideas will help you get started. But to really bring your room design to life, head to a local furniture showroom. When you shop in person, you can make sure every piece looks as good in real life as it does in the photos (and is super comfortable too).
 
Now that you know where you’re going with your bunk room design (straight to <a href="https://storelocator.coasterfurniture.com/">your local Coaster Furniture retailer</a>, we hope!), you can move on to your next big decision: Who gets top bunk?"
