Abstract
A double bunk bed loft system having a staircase and landing on both the lower and upper levels which create hallways between the individual bunks. The hallway allows for users to stand up, but because the placement of upper bunks is over the lower bunks above the beds, the entire bunk system is shorter and saves vertical space. To create a more spacious feel for the lower bunk, the system is designed using exposed beams to support the upper bunk. The upper level remains open to add height.
