Bunk Beds - From Ancient Egypt Till Modern Times

 Though the origin of bunk beds cannot be documented because of the lack of sufficient proof, they date back to hundreds and thousands of years into ancient Egypt. Some traces of beds, similar in concept to that of the modern day bunk beds have been found there. Yet the greatest influence and forerunners of the present day bunk beds are the beds used by the mariners or navy and sometimes by the artillery. The bunk bed would accommodate more for just the floor space of one and this concept appealed the designers of kid's furniture. Families with two or more kids could now offer an individual bed to every child however, the floor space occupancy would remain the same as that of a single bed.


In its process of evolution, the kids furniture world took care to incorporate nearly every aspect that would make both the kids and the parents happy at the same time. Unlike the bunk beds of the past, the modern day designers put in all their imagination to make it look highly appealing. They even went to the extent of merging the concept of kids bunk with that of kids novelty beds and thus came the modern day highly alluring designer bunk beds.

These kids furnitures are anything but just simple sleepers; they often are a piece to flaunt in a house. This quality itself makes them the first choice for the kids. It would be unnatural for anyone, even the adults, not to like a bunk bed in the style of a double-decker bus. The upper and lower levels of the battlements of a fort are no less appealing. Kids furniture stores more often take pride in displaying these kinds of bunk beds for their little customers and their guardians.

Once again the variety in this section is also worth mentioning. From hard wood to iron or any other hardy material that can hold well for the purpose yet look elegant is the choice of the time. Variety is also noticed in the combination of size of the beds which are attached with each other. Till a few years back, one could not imagine of any style barring two beds of the same size, more often two single or twin beds sitting atop another. Today, a combination of twin over twin, twin over double, twin over king are equally common.

Designers of these furnitures have even paid their attention towards the utilitarian value of the beds. Knowing that just sleepers are not enough for families with small houses, the architects attached the facility of storage to the beds. Thus the bunk beds of today are complete in design and beauty and accomplished in providing the best storage possible making them compact units ready to serve the needs of a small household.

Nonetheless, the loft beds of today are just a variation on the bunk beds and therefore, are another kind of highly efficient piece of furniture with both aesthetics and functionality packed in it.
