Bunk bed in alcove

Interior designers share their tips on how to design an alcove bed like a pro, no matter your room size or style.

Every summer growing up, my family and I would do the seven-hour drive up north to my grandpa’s lake house. The views were incredible, but the house was pretty special in that it felt right out of a Wes Anderson movie. The two-story home was completely flannel sheets, and the whole thing was tucked neatly inside a nook. I’d stay on the top bunk, and my younger brother on the bottom.

Christina on Instagram: "Beddy’s! I built these alcove beds knowing I would likely struggle finding a way to make the beds easily, and keep them looking tidy. I found these darling stitched bedding sets, and they were the perfect solution for this tight bed space. They would be great for bunk beds, and Beddy’s recently released a zip base version, allowing you to completely zip out the bottom sheet for even easier washing. Check the top of my bio for the link to this cute set!"
