9. Lights Out
This high-contrast, high-occupancy bedroom designed by Amy Storm & Co. is in a Tudor-style home in Park Ridge, Illinois. The deep charcoal bunks and bedding recede into the paneled wall, and the light wood floor and ceiling beam add warmth to the minimalist design.

This bunk area in a Ryan Street Architects-designed home in Rollingwood, Texas, packs megachic style into a small footprint. Each bunk is clad in light wood, equipped with a reading light and dressed in neutral, textured linens. Drawers under the lower bunks look perfect for stashing suitcases.

4. Sleepaway Camp
For a Minnesota lake house, Jeff Balmer and Paula Kovatovich of Lands End Development designed this bunk room to sleep as many kids as possible and give off a summer-camp vibe.
Two twin-over-twin bunk beds with stairs and one twin-over-full bunk bed with a ladder accomplish the first mission. Classic plaid bedding, an industrial-look ceiling light and rustic-style pine (some of which is painted red and glazed with a walnut stain) accomplish the latter.

3. Sweet Dreams in Santa Fe
Two sets of queen-over-queen mattresses provide plenty of sleep space in this bunk room, which is in the kids’ wing of a vacation home built by Coyote Development Group in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
The idea behind its style was classic Santa Fe adobe with a modern twist — note the Southwestern-style patterns on the rug and the bedding. Comfy corduroy poufs and a slate-colored chalkboard-paint accent wall are playful accents.

2. Coastal Comforts
Designer Nate Fischer used Houzz Pro Mood Boards to configure the bunk beds in this coastal Southern California home. Ultimately, he landed on full XL beds, which are a little smaller than queen mattresses but plenty comfy for the intended users: visiting college kids, their friends and, eventually, grandchildren.
Bulkhead lights, porthole-like accents and a soft blue-gray, tan and white color scheme nod to the home’s seaside locale.

1. Rustic and Restful
Like other bunk rooms featured in this article, the most-saved kids’ room of 2022 was designed with both kids and adults in mind.
The room, in a Breckenridge, Colorado, vacation home built by Pinnacle Mountain Homes, is outfitted with two queen beds, each with an extra-long twin above and dedicated luggage storage space beneath.
Designer Lisa Yates of Collective Design Group collaborated with the homeowners using Houzz photos to come up with the design, which includes a storage nook and sconce in each bunk. Walnut stairs double as additional open storage, and barn-wood-clad walls add a cozy and rustic feel.

Architect John Buckley designed these shipshape bunk beds for a couple’s Kennebunkport, Maine, vacation house. The couple also rent the house to others, so these bunks provide sleeping spots for guests of all ages. Each bunk has a nautical-style bulkhead reading light and niche, and is clad in nickel-gap boards. There’s a ladder too that isn’t pictured.
