Triple bunk beds are the best beds for small spaces and families with multiple children sharing one room. They are aesthetic, space-saving, and provide a separate bed for each child – kids love that!
However, you will find yourself in a pickle when designing a shared room for boys and girls. While most girls like light, neutral colours with a simple design, boys like to all out with their favourite superhero figures.
So, how to design a triple bunk bed room in such a situation?
This article covers everything about gender-neutral designs when creating stylish bunk bed rooms for boys and girls.
The most significant issue between boys and girls sharing a room is the room paint or décor. Boys usually think pink is a girlish colour, whereas girls love these shades. Buying a triple bed also comes with the big question: “What colour should the bed be?”
Boys might not prefer pinks and purples, and girls are typically not fans of green or blue. Thus, the best choices of colour for a gender-neutral triple bed include:
Neutrals: Neutrals are undoubtedly the best pick whether getting a standard bunk bed, l-shaped triple bunk, or a bunk bed with pull out. Colours like white, beige, and brown allow you to decorate the space in multiple ways. These beds also go with all kinds of paint so you do not have to worry about repainting the room.
Pastels: Pastel colours have been a favourite among adults lately, and you can get the same for your kids’ room. They offer a light hint of colour without making it too bling and bright.
Multi-colour: What’s better than all colours in a bed if your kids do not like boring neutrals? When buying a triple bunk bed from MK Furnishings, you can get the bed drawers painted in any colour you like, including a mix of many.
Black: We know black is not a favourite for rooms, and rightly so. But it is a popular choice of color when buying metal stacked or L-shaped triple bunks. It’s another suitable colour that goes well with all kinds of décor.
When you have sorted the colour, there might be disagreements on the size of the bunk bed. Most parents prefer a two-tier bed for safety, but kids, especially boys, like a three-tier stacked triple bunk bed as it offers more adventure. Here are all the choices for a shared boys and girls bunk bed:
3-tier Bunk Bed: The three-tier bunk bed is among the oldest triple bed designs because of its simple design. You can get this bunk bed if the room has a high ceiling. However, these beds are not the best pick for rooms with a low ceiling due to safety hazards.
Single and Double Bed: The single and double bed variant is another solution for three children sharing one room. These beds come with a single bed on top of a double bed. Two kids can share the double bed, while the other can sleep in the top bunk. This bed is well-suited to rooms with a low ceiling. You can also get a bunk bed with pull out when opting for a single and double bed for extra sleeping space.
Two-tier three bunk beds: MK Furnishings triple beds are the perfect option for kids who don’t prefer sharing a bed but the room is not high enough for a stacked triple bed. The two-tier bunk beds have two twin beds vertically placed with one bed on top horizontally. It makes them the best beds for small spaces without compromising privacy and comfort.
Storage can be another tricky element when buying a triple bunk bed for boys and girls sharing one room. Whether you buy a standard triple bed, an L-shaped triple bunk, or a bunk bed with a pull-out, most kids need extra storage when they do not have a wardrobe. Some of the best storage options for shared bedrooms are:
Staircase Storage: When buying a bed for young children, opting for a staircase instead of a ladder is better. The extra storage in the stairs is an added benefit of getting stairs with the triple bunk bed.
Under-the-bed Storage: If you do not buy a bunk bed with a pull-out trundle, the area under the bottom bunk also has space to store things like books, toys, clothes, bedding, etc.
Storage Add-ons: In addition to the storage that comes with the bed, you can get add-on storage pockets to store extra things. They usually come in colours like white, black, or beige and suit aesthetics.
Often, parents want themed bunk beds for their kids to make sleeping independently more interesting and attractive. But choosing between a princess castle bed and a villa bed can be tough.
The playhouse bunk bed can be the perfect choice for a themed bed when two children share one room. It is a high-sleeper bed with a twin bed having space underneath. The area under the top bunk is designed to look like a playhouse with windows and a door. Choose from different colour combinations according to your children’s choice to ensure they love their new bed!
Choosing a triple bunk bed for a gender-neutral room design can be challenging when boys and girls share the room. Choose from standard triple bunk beds, themed beds, or trundle beds for your kids. Pick your favourite from different materials, colours, designs, and themes to match the room’s aesthetics and your functional needs. Neutral coloured beds are usually a favorite among parents designing a shared room. Furthermore, you can add colors and get the stairs painted in a mix of shades. Also, add elements to the room that do not cater to boys’ or girls’ choices only.
