@Janine.feidcreated a cozy seating area perfect for reading or simply relaxing.

And this is an easy DIY because you dont even have to build the bed.

Theres lots of open and closed storage under the bed with some dressers and hanging space.

Here, its been added above the kitchen so that its discreet and away from the living space.

This loft bed fromHistorika Heminvolves building a strong platform to place the mattress on.

Here the platform has been suspended from the ceiling with steel suspension cables.

The large plant is a clever finishing touch for both aesthetics and privacy.

A thick sheet of wood has been attached to the wall to create the base.

Wooden slats have been joined to the base with black metal brackets to make the guard rail.

The space under allows for a small living area for your guests to relax in.

Like most loft beds, this one is made entirely from wood.

However, the platform for the bed is larger than the mattress making it feel more spacious.

This tiny apartment fromFantastic Frankis a great example as it uses every inch of space so cleverly.

Similar to others, this loft bed was created by making a false ceiling above the kitchen.

Instead of steps that take up precious floor space, a tiered shelving unit becomes the steps.

Its almost like creating an extra floor even though its only large enough for a bed.
