NESTED BUNK BED


Like Russian dolls, each one cradling a secret within, the Nested Bunk Bed holds its breath — and then unfolds. A winner of a local design competition, it was born from a simple but urgent question: how do you tuck five children gently into one small room?

From a single, compact tower it cascades outward, step by step, revealing bed after bed, each one a small world of its own. By day it gathers itself quietly into a sofa, a grandstand, a place to perch and dream. By night it stretches open like arms.
