This is a bed built for my 14-year-old son who shares a room with a younger brother. Space is limited so we wanted to pack a lot of function into as small a footprint as possible.
Construction is with Oak plywood and solid Oak.
Drawer boxes are made with reclaimed poplar Drawer fronts were made from reclaimed oak

This is really good. It makes great use of a small area. Well planned and constructed.
