Bunk beds with desk is a common feature in many a teenager’s room. Not all of us have bedrooms that large to accommodate both a bed and a desk so that our kids have a comfortable bed to sleep on and a desk to do their school work. Therefore, a bunk bed with a desk is a practical piece of bedroom furniture to get if you have a teenager at home.
Basically, you have two options if you need a desk with a bunk bed. You can have the desk at the side and slot in another bed underneath the top bunk or you can opt for a full desk beneath the bed. Of course, a desk at the side may not be that practical because the space that comes with the desk will be pretty limited. It may be good for writing and reading but it will not be adequate if your kid needs the space for books, papers and files to do projects and other school work. Furthermore, it will be hard to fit in a workstation on such a small desk if one is needed.
On the other hand, a full size desk will provide more flexibility to your kid as he can then put up shelves, organizers and a desktop on it. He can also put drawers and boxes underneath the desk for more storage space. Of course, this means you will have have one less sleeping space with a full size desk underneath the top bunk. Therefore, you will need to evaluate what is your priority when considering the bunk bed design.
The other consideration would be to look at bunk beds with desk that shares the space beneath the top bunk with a futon bed. While your kid will have a futon chair to sit on, he will have a much smaller desk to work with. But at least there will be a space for a guest to sleep on with the pull out futon chair that converts into a bed.
