Varieties of single beds and design features

A person spends a third of his life in a dream, and therefore the choice of furniture for relaxation is very important. A single bed is the main piece of furniture in the children's room or bedroom of an adult. When choosing products, it is necessary to take into account the features of children's furniture and correctly evaluate the characteristics of models for adolescents or adults.

Options and features of models

A wide range of beds does not cause special difficulties with the selection of products for people of different ages and physiques.

For children

A single bed is a common variant of furniture for relaxing in a children's room. Such models have a lot of advantages: they create a full-fledged place for sleeping, they are easy to care for, do not need to be folded / laid out, they come in different styles and designs, take up little space, are multifunctional. Basic requirements for products: safe form (without sharp corners), environmental friendliness of materials, comfortable height. When choosing furniture, several parameters are taken into account:

• Interior style;
• Age and anatomical features of the child (height, weight);
• Materials (preferably environmentally friendly);
• Mattress.

The main variants of the models: classic single beds with side backs (one or two), models with lifting mechanisms and built-in storage systems, daybed (one of the two or three backs is soft - covered with textiles).

In the nursery for kids, they put low models (with sides) with images of toys or characters of fairy tales. Some parents make such products with their own hands. Before assembling a project from a tree, it is advisable to correctly calculate all its parameters. To give the atmosphere a bright look, choose furniture in juicy shades (green, blue, yellow, pink). An excellent purchase will be a single bed sofa (a kind of sofa with a back and armrests of the same height). Thanks to the side back, you can not be afraid that the child in a dream will touch the cold wall.

For older children, models of a more adult look are selected. Teenagers are already critical of the design of the room and the choice of furniture. Therefore, it is important to consider the wishes of children, their interests and preferences. For a teenager, a simple bed with a strict laconic style is suitable. Suitable colors - shades of gray, blue, dark brown. For a girl, it is advisable to choose more intricate stylish models - with carved backs, decorated with beautiful elements (forging, wooden overhead elements, colored plastic inserts). Furniture in light shades (white, sand, silver, pink, lime) will emphasize the tenderness of the atmosphere.

For adults

As a rule, in adulthood, preference is given to multifunctional models. It is very convenient when the furniture turns into a full-fledged berth at night, and during the day is used for daytime relaxation or receiving guests. Also popular are models from which, when unfolded, a double simple bed is obtained. The most common options are:

• Standard single bed with headboard only;
• Ottoman sofa - low furniture. Products can have separately only armrests or a back;
• Transforming bed (multifunctional models combining a berth with a sofa, table);
• Soft folding beds act as a spare berth. Modern models are equipped with mattresses, so a single folding bed allows you to quickly organize a vacation for a dear guest. Such products are equipped with wheels and assembled easily move and take up little space;
• Retractable bed (placed in special catwalks). Suitable for rooms with high ceilings;
• A folding bed (fixed against the wall and in an upright form is almost invisible).

Any furniture is selected taking into account the style of the room. Therefore, for modern high-tech, minimalist styles, stylish built-in beds or folding beds are suitable. In such an environment, the room will look spacious and free. For rustic interiors, wrought iron beds are suitable. For a luxurious classic style or baroque, it is advisable to choose a bed with a soft headboard.

Special

Specialized furniture (medical beds, massage beds) are used for specific purposes. As a rule, such designs are equipped with special mechanisms. For such furniture, special mattresses are made. A single medical bed with a mattress is designed for patients who need special care. Such furniture is characterized by increased functionality:

• The sections of the head and legs are regulated (you can change the angle of inclination of these zones). You can control individual sections of the structure using electronic devices;
• The beds are equipped with side handrails that are easy to lower and easy to lock in the raised position;
• Almost all models are mobile (equipped with special casters or wheels).

Specialized furniture includes beds for hotels, kindergartens, hospitals. In appearance, such products do not differ from household models. However, the requirements for specialized furniture are special: high strength, easy care, reliability, durability. For government agencies, beds with an economy class mattress are suitable. For low-cost hotels, pensions, budgetary furniture options are also selected. But for premium hotels, designer single beds are already being selected. Such furniture is made from expensive wood, can be decorated with decorative elements.

Base Classification

It is the base that ensures the reliability of a single bed. Furniture is available with different types of bases:

• Orthopedic grille, having the form of a frame made of metal or wood. Specially curved wooden slats (lamellas) are attached to the grill. Thanks to this feature, the deflection of the mattress is compensated for by the severity of the sleeping person. An orthopedic bed has several advantages: a long service life, environmental friendliness, excellent air ventilation, the ability to install additional slats to increase the rigidity of the grill;
• The flat base in a single bed is made of boards, chipboards. The main advantages of the design: a laminated chipboard plate provides a stable and even position of the mattress, the democratic price of beds. Of the shortcomings, it is worth noting the lack of ventilation of the lower side of the mattress. Therefore, you will have to periodically raise the mattress for ventilation;
• Lamels fixed on the frame with the help of special types of fasteners - lato-holders. Such a foundation has the following advantages: excellent ventilation of the mattress, more affordable price compared to the orthopedic grill. Single bed 90 to 200 has an excellent orthopedic effect.

Not always financial opportunities allow you to purchase your favorite furniture. But when choosing a bed, you should not save too much. It is important that the products create conditions for a comfortable body position in a dream. After all, only a comfortable berth will allow you to fully relax and recover without damage to health.

Additional features

Few rooms boast spacious areas. Most often in small rooms there are several zones for different purposes, so the items for the decor are multifunctional. Manufacturers offer several furniture options:

• A transforming bed can combine different elements of furniture. The most common model is vertical. When assembled, it turns out a sofa with hinged shelves - a cozy place to relax, and when unfolded - a comfortable place to sleep. A very popular horizontal model is a bed-table, which in a raised form allows you to organize a convenient place for study or work. Advantages of transformers: corner models allow you to use the "dead" zone saving room area, saving money (one model of furniture includes several items), excellent beds for teens. The disadvantages of the models: furniture requires additional costs, poor-quality transformation mechanisms quickly break down;
• Products with high bases are equipped with special drawers. Such furniture is very popular. These beds are comfortable for both kids and adults. In children's models, you can put toys, bedding. Boxes in adult products are used to store clothes, bedding. As a rule, special furniture rollers are mounted on the bottom and drawers are not difficult to pull out. The main advantage of furniture is the presence of hidden storage places;
• In some models, a berth may be raised. The bed frame also acts as an integrated storage system. Thanks to special devices, it is not difficult to lift the mattress;
• A bed with a pull-out berth will be the best solution for a small room where two children live. Depending on the height of the product, the bed may also have built-in drawers for storing things. An assembled bed with a side backrest upholstered in soft material is used as a sofa on which it is convenient to read books or watch TV during the day.

Advantages of furniture: full-fledged beds for two children are created, when assembled, narrow beds take up little space. Disadvantages: a child sleeping on a pull-out section may be uncomfortable due to the low location of the mattress, getting up from the upper bed is uncomfortable (you have to disturb the sleeping person, who lies in the lower berth).

Happy owners of large-sized apartments must have a bedroom with a bed of their favorite size. However, thanks to the variety of transformable furniture, today it is not difficult to create a completely comfortable sitting area in a room of any size.

Size chart

Depending on the destination, it is possible to conditionally allocate children's and adult beds. This division is considered conditional, since the main criteria for choosing furniture - the growth of a person, especially his physique. Therefore, it is natural that a teenage bed for a tall child will have a large size. And low adults can rest quite comfortably on furniture of compact "children's" parameters (170 cm or 180 cm long).

Therefore, for babies up to three years, a single bed with parameters 60x12 cm or 65x125 cm (European standard) is quite suitable. If the child is not tall, then he can quite easily sleep on such beds up to 4-5 years. The main thing is that along the length of the berth there should be a margin of 10-15 cm.

For preschoolers, products with dimensions of 70x140 cm or 70x160 cm are quite suitable. Single children's mattresses are selected according to the size of the base. It is especially necessary to purchase mattresses for a bed with a soft headboard or for models with a footboard and headboard. The best option is if the size of the mattress is indicated in the passport of the bed. Therefore, it is advisable to purchase children's single beds and mattresses of the same company.

The teenage bed and bedroom furniture for an adult are the same size. The most popular product parameters.

You can have a good rest on a bed even 60 cm wide. However, manufacturers believe that for a comfortable sleep the minimum width of the bed should be 70 cm. Lovers of space or owners of a strong physique should choose models with parameters of 120x200 cm. But in most cases a single bed 90x200 is the best option

The choice of bed is individual and is determined not only by the preferences or physical data of the owner, but also by the style of the room, its size. Due to the variety of furniture models, you can purchase a product that fits all the criteria.
