Beyond the captivating look, gallery beds are a space multiplier that allows you to bring more functions into the space and still feel that we are operating in a spacious and larger space than its given dimensions, while on the same axis you can place both a bed and an additional function such as a study corner, library or play and creative corner.
The options are varied and can be adapted to the need. You can plan a play area or craft table or a combination of the two. It is important to make sure to incorporate a humorous wink, this is true for children's rooms and also for adults. The humor maintains a positive energy, reminds us to take life as lightly as possible, and it makes sure to hug us to it and allow us to feel good in the private space.

The younger the children, the more concept beds, such as a bed in the shape of a house or a car, are more considered. These are captivating beds but it is important to pay attention and think about the future. Children develop very quickly, and the house with the red roof can suddenly become irrelevant.
Study and work unit
The creative corner, which often stands in the center of the room, can be located under the gallery bed, in the space created. In this way, the corner itself is more intimate and allows the child to concentrate and enter the appropriate atmosphere. Such an arrangement saves a lot of space and also keeps the space looking organized, if only by being located in a designated corner and not in the center of the space.

Decorative Library
A decorative library with a minimalist look is an addition with design value, but no less, one that will empower the child. Library shelves are a great place to honor his creations and the memorabilia he collects during family outings. It's important to keep your look open and flowing, so make sure to have light-looking shelves and dividers, and try to avoid a heavy and cluttered look.
Make the most of bunk bed space
In many cases, two siblings share one bedroom. Planning a loft bed with an extra bed underneath it allows optimal utilization of space. The construction on the floors leaves more space for planning additional functions in the same space, such as storage solutions and play areas. In this case, too, a sense of space is possible, which is reinforced when it comes to a small space.

The ladder as a decorative element
The ladder is a necessary detail for going up to the gallery bed, but beyond the function it fulfills, it can be treated as a decorative element that will add to the look of the entire space - it can be in a more prominent shade or in a special shape that attracts attention. Sometimes the ladder is replaced by stairs. Usually, because these are children's beds, the stairs will be wide and on their sides you can store toys and other items.
