Overview of popular options for modern beds for children and adults
In the bedroom, a person spends at least a quarter of his life, and the comfort of stay depends largely on the place to sleep. A variety of design solutions are now available, and modern beds take almost any, sometimes unthinkable form. In addition, the wide technological capabilities of the modern furniture industry allow us to realize a variety of consumer needs in terms of functionality.

Varieties
Modern beds for bedrooms may vary depending on the number of beds, design, functionality and material of manufacture.
Classic with lifting gear
Unlike a regular bed, which is difficult to get to the mattress space, modern ones are equipped with a special mechanism that facilitates this procedure. It is enough to pull the belt and warping together with the mattress rises using springs or pneumatics. The system provides significant force compensation, and some models are equipped with electric drives, which are controlled from the remote control. Thanks to this, an additional box for storing things appears in the house, moreover, it is quite roomy.
These beds are quite low, making it difficult to clean under them. Some manufacturers equip their products with a removable bottom to facilitate the cleaning process. The modular design allows you to easily remove the elements of the bed to update the design or repair.
Recessed
A great option for those who want to not only visually expand the space of the room, but to get a real increase in the usable area in small rooms. The built-in sleeping module simultaneously combines several functional areas within one room, creating an additional or reserve place for sleeping.
In the case of the acquisition of a comprehensive furniture solution, the design of the transforming bed merges with the overall interior design and, when folded, resembles an ordinary wardrobe. Unassembled - this is a solid base with an orthopedic mattress and extendable legs.
Folding is realized by the horizontal or vertical folding mechanism. Quality beds can withstand quite impressive weight, but there are still limitations. There are automated options, the transformation of which is carried out from a remote control, by means of an electric drive.
Soaring
Visually it seems that the bed is hanging in the air. This is possible due to the lack of visible supports, which is far from always true.Hovering berths usually have a headboard close to one of the walls, in which load-bearing structural elements are mounted so that they are difficult to see.
Supports are mounted closer to the center of the base, and a low landing relative to the floor and well-positioned lighting perfectly mask their presence. A flying bed will decorate any bedroom in a modern style and will make an unforgettable impression on guests.
Outboard
Such a berth is not equipped with any supports at all, but unlike the previous version, it does not make the impression of a soaring. This is because the elements that hold it above the floor are clearly visible. This is an impressive type of rope or chain, fixed in the ceiling or some other supporting structure.
This decision can be called modern unless in the context: the new is the well-forgotten old. Since the fastening was similarly used in the distant past, for example, in rural areas, lullabies were hung from the ceiling. Since there is no rigid support, the structure does not have stability, and it begins to sway with the slightest movement. A weak vestibular apparatus and a tendency to motion sickness will make rest on such a bed impossible. People who are not inclined to motion sickness, on the contrary, will be lulled.
Teenage
Modern teenage beds differ from products for adults, primarily structurally. In addition, design, practicality, rational use of useful space are important:
- Transformer - has various folding mechanisms, the most common of which is a book or a retractable one. Helps to rationally compose objects that are most necessary for the rest and everyday life of a teenager;
- Attic is another square meter saving solution. This time the berth is located as close to the ceiling as possible. The free space under it can be used for any useful purpose, for example, for a computer desk;
- Layered models are the best solution if there are two or more children in the family. Everyone will find a place, while there will be enough free space for games and entertainment;
- Podium - one of the design options for podium beds (folding) involves the use of a retractable mechanism. The bed for sleeping is pushed out of the box, which the rest of the time can be used as an additional usable area. Another, less economically spatial option, when the podium is the foundation on which the mattress lies.
Baby
First of all, modern children's beds are safe, comfortable and durable structures made of environmentally friendly materials. Simple options are possible, without any special equipment, as well as complex solutions with additional devices, made according to the preferences of the parents.
- A transforming bed is a combination of functionally useful elements, which includes, in addition to a berth, a changing table, compact chest of drawers, drawers and shelves. Unfolding into independent structural elements allows you to save space and focus on a relatively small area everything you need to care for a child. There are models in which the size of the base is regulated, which allows using simple manipulations to make a cot a berth for a younger student;
- With a pendulum mechanism - a crib for a newborn with a pendulum replaces the cradle or the usual, children's place to sleep. Such decisions can greatly facilitate the care of the baby, ensure its healthy sleep and comfort. The principle of operation of the pendulum depends on the mechanism used:
- Cross - the most simple and affordable, its operation resembles motion sickness in an ordinary cradle;
- Longitudinal - like motion sickness on the hands: the movement occurs back and forth and is more natural for a person, which contributes to the fast falling asleep and calm behavior of the child. To implement such a mechanism is somewhat more complicated than the transverse one. This requires hinges, bushings and more space. There are also universal options, the method of motion sickness in which can be changed using the switch.
- Rocking cot - a simple sleeping device, unlike the previous one, is not equipped with any mechanisms. Swinging at such a bed for children is possible due to the design features and is carried out in one of two directions (along or across). The legs of the rocking crib are connected by arcuate runners on which it sways. Such products cost an order of magnitude cheaper than their mechanical counterparts, but are functionally inferior except in the absence of the ability to swing in all directions.
Advanced equipment
The most technological premium segment beds are equipped with a special mechanism for changing the position of the body of a person lying on them. Depending on the design, it is possible to change the position of the arms, legs, head and torso. The functionality of such beds depends on the number of sections used in them, which are driven mechanically or by remote control.
More advanced models are equipped with pneumatic systems, which allows changing positions as gently as possible. At the touch of a button, you can put the bed into a convenient mode for watching TV or even working on a laptop. This eliminates the need to pave mountains of pillows to ensure comfort in a particular situation.
Equipped with similar mechanisms, beds are made of wood, plastic, or metal. Combined products are most practical. The frame of the metal profile is framed by decorative sheathing that matches the purpose of the bed and the interior design in which it will be located.
Audio systems, sockets for charging mobile devices, consoles for laptops and tablets with stands are mounted in the frames of many modern beds. To create a special decorative effect in some models, LED backlight is installed.
The best body and upholstery materials
The casing of the bed can be made of wood, metal, wood boards, upholstered in a variety of materials or without them.
- Metal - modern metal beds are radically different from the brutal products of the last century. The variety of design solutions allows you to choose the option that suits your style for any interior. The metal is exceptionally strong material, which allows practically not to limit the load on the beds made of it and significantly increase the life of the unit. At the same time, metal products cost much less than their wooden counterparts, and there are much more opportunities to design them in a special way;
- Wooden - beds made of solid wood harmoniously fit into almost any interior, are available in all price categories. Moreover, they are absolutely environmentally friendly and are unlikely to lose relevance in the near future. Attempts to simulate the appearance and texture of plate materials only partially convey what a real wooden bed should be. The variety of available wood species is relatively small, which is largely offset by the variety of paints and varnishes. The use of decorating compositions along with structural solutions allows you to achieve a harmonious combination of bed furniture with any design findings;
- With leather upholstery - beds upholstered in genuine leather - this is a popular luxury furniture, appropriate in a simple, classic interior, as well as in rooms decorated in high-tech style.Modern technologies make it possible to produce high-quality artificial leather, which is almost impossible to distinguish from genuine. Leather beds coated with artificial or natural materials, are soft, resistant to mechanical damage and not as traumatic as wood or metal products.
Beautiful designer models
- Four-poster bed - despite its classic focus, this type of bedroom furniture is still relevant today. A distinctive feature of such beds is their considerable dimensions - especially their width (up to 2 m). These are, as a rule, beds with a soft headboard, a high frame made of wood or stylized metal;
- Forged beds - modern forging methods make it possible to produce headboards with elegant patterns of varying degrees of complexity. Processing with special patting agents adds the effect of artificial aging, which gives the subject a noble shade;
- Wood carving - often found on expensive luxury products, recalling the luxury of the 19th century. Carved areas are partially or completely covered with gold, patina or simply varnished;
- The classic version - a quilted backrest, upholstered in leather or light fabric, combined with a massive design, perfectly complement the minimalist interior of the bedroom;
- The strict design, in the tiled style, complemented by modern fabrics, creates a unique perfection of restraint and taste.
