11) The Micro Bus Bunk Bed and Playhouse
Take your kids back to the groovy 70s with this large bunk bed. This may look like a minibus but it is actually a creative bunk bed and playhouse. This is a huge project that can take days to make but is certainly worth it.
The interior of the lower part of the bed is a play area where your child can spend a day with his or her mates. They can play all kinds of games because this is spacious and has a lot of area for storage. The upper area is huge and can actually accommodate two people. The top area is so high from the ground that the builder installed tall side rails around the top bunk. A very large and long ladder will help kids access the top bunk.
Make this an inspiring loft bed design for your next woodworking project.

16) Loft Bed for a Kid’s Room
Give your child’s small bedroom some personality. Instead of just creating a space for her to sleep, you can make it livelier and more functional. This is a very large loft bedroom with a huge space at the bottom for a study area and even a recreational area.
The area on top can accommodate a single size or a twin-size mattress. It has tall side rails that extend to the entire perimeter of the bed. This will make the top section safer during sleep or play. A tall ladder can access the top easily but careful since it is quite steep.
At the bottom part of the loft is a space which can be used for any purpose depending on your child’s interests. This could be a study area, a place for a computer, a video gaming station, a place to keep books, store toys or display her collections. You can also transform this into a spare bed for a sleepover.
