The 5 essential beds in a teenager's bedroom
Your little one is growing up... Now it's time to turn your child's bedroom into a teenager's bedroom! In this article you'll find the 5 essential types of bed for a teen bedroom: the single bed, the trundle bed, the sofa bed, the high sleeper and the mid sleeper.
The Bed: The Essential Piece
Single or double bed?
When planning a teen bedroom, you can choose between a single bed and a double bed.
If space in the teenager's bedroom is limited, we recommend a single bed with built-in storage, such as shelves or a drawer underneath for clothes and bedding. If the room is spacious, however, a double bed is definitely worth considering.
The bed you choose should be sturdy and complement the decoration of the teen bedroom. You can pick whatever style and colour you like, although a white solid-wood teen bed is a versatile option that suits all kinds of decorating styles.
To complete the teen bedroom, add bedding and cushions made from soft, natural materials such as cotton and organic linen.
If you and your teenager can't agree on the size of the bed, consider meeting halfway with a small double (120 x 200 cm). It gives them plenty of room without taking up too much space in the bedroom.
High Sleeper
The high sleeper is a favourite with teenagers, as it makes efficient use of the space. You can add a desk and shelves under the bed to create a study area, or a sofa and coffee table for a place to relax.
Mid Sleeper
Mid sleepers are an excellent way to make the most of the space in teen bedrooms. Raised high enough to create a storage or play area underneath, these beds are versatile and practical.
Sofa Bed
You could also furnish your teenager's bedroom with a sofa bed. This kind of furniture is ideal for having friends round during the day and gives a comfortable place to sleep at night. It can also come in handy in a guest room or playroom.
Trundle Bed
The trundle bed is another practical option, with an extra bed hidden underneath the main one. You can have it with or without wheels. This type of bed is especially handy for sleepovers with friends.
Whatever you choose, make sure the bed suits your teenager's needs and preferences, bringing comfort and practicality to their teen bedroom.
Trundle Bed with Drawers
Trundle beds with drawers are the perfect solution for maximising storage space in small rooms. With drawers built in under the main bed, they offer a convenient way to organise bedding, toys and other things. As well as being practical, these beds also give you an extra option for putting up guests comfortably without taking up more space in the room.
