Choosing Adult Bunk Beds for an Edwardian Semi
Edwardian semis often have generous ceiling heights, wide bay windows and handsome original features, which makes them better suited to adult bunk beds than many people expect. The key is to choose a frame that is rated for adult weight, check the clearance between the top mattress and the ceiling, and position the bed so it works with cornicing, picture rails, fireplaces and sash windows rather than against them. In this guide we explain how to measure a period room properly, including uneven floors and sloping ceilings in loft conversions. We look at which frame materials suit Edwardian proportions, how to think about mattress depth and guard rail height for grown up sleepers, and where to place the bed in back bedrooms and box rooms. We also share styling ideas that respect the character of the house, from colour choices to bedding, so a practical sleeping solution still feels at home in a period property....
