We attach great importance to the interior: it should not only please the eye, but also be comfortable and functional. How does the podium for a bed differ from standard solutions? First of all, the fact that such a piece of interior is capable of performing several functions. The podium under the bed (the photo of the most interesting solutions we present below) can be a "zone of rest and relaxation," but not only. In it, with a successful design, you can hide various small things that are always in sight, you can store - as in the dresser - clothes and bedding.
If we choose a standard solution, we need to decide on the place that we can allocate for the box. Whatever we hide under the bed, everything will be in sight. Well, except we find a long blanket to the floor. The podium for the bed solves these problems radically: you can use it both as shelves and as boxes for storing things, and you can also combine these two functions. Such a solution has its drawbacks. The podium for the bed is usually mounted to the wall or to the floor, therefore, it will be difficult to move it. In addition, if we want to create a multi-functional recreation area, we will have to allocate a rather large space for it. At a minimum, it should be 2-3 meters wide and as long as it is. However, in small rooms, the podium for the bed will justify itself better than a bulky bed. Having spread out pillows and bedspreads in oriental style on it, we can create an atmosphere of bliss and relaxation. In the minimalist performance, everything that you can do with your own hands from improvised, even, you might say, junk materials is perfect for us. Pallets, boxes - a great idea for such a piece of furniture, as a podium bed. The price of this product can in fact be extremely low.
Take six to eight medium sized pallets. It is important, of course, to carefully process them: sand, sand, paint (optional). It will be most convenient to fasten them in two tiers (with steps) with metal corners. We put the mattress on top - the bed is ready!
If you want, besides simplicity, to receive also a functional place of storage of trifles, think out, how drawers will be put forward. You can put them simply on the wheels, or you can attach to their side walls sliding guide rails. For a children's podium-bed is the ideal solution: firstly, it will give a lot of room for toys and entertainment. Secondly, there is no danger that the child will fall down or roll down at night. And in the living room, such furniture is useful. Often because in modern apartments, "salon", "bedroom" and "dining room" (and sometimes even a room for work) - everything is in the same room.
By the way, this bed is also convenient because in the twinkling of an eye it can turn ... into a dance floor, into an office, into a mini-stage. It will be enough to hide the mattress, put the bed in boxes - and the podium is ready. In this case, it is more appropriate to make it as if built-in - using the same coating for the surface and steps, which is applied on the floor. Such furniture is also interesting because the area for sleeping can be arbitrary. So you do not have to limit yourself in the movements and you can sleep at least along, though across, without feeling the edge.
