Bunk up
Make sure your child’s bedroom is sleepover-ready by investing in a bed that conceals a slide-out guest bed below. Some versions have extending legs that transform A single into a double, which may also prove indispensable when adult guests come to stay. ‘Bunk beds work well as they maximise floor space, leaving more room for play. Blue Almonds is our go-to for well-made, durable bunk beds, which are available with an optional curtain rail to create a fun den beneath,’ says interior designer Katharine Pooley. ‘I like to choose white or neutral coloured bunk beds and then add interest and detail through soft furnishings and patterned wallpaper.’ Mixing prints adds a fun dimension. Stick to a simple colour palette to keep it easy on the eye.
