A Lofted Bed For Our Shipping Container

Designing small spaces can be a challenge - how much do you leverage vertical space? Is it possible to fit everything you need without overcrowding it? These are the question we are consistently asking ourselves as we design our shipping container house. We went back and forth a lot on how to make the bedroom both functional and beautiful and I think this lofted bed is going to be perfect for our family. We'll have a ton of cabinet space below the bed along with a little nook for our dog to sleep. The stairs are actually storage containers as well and double as a comfy chair.
What do you think of the design? Would you live with a lofted bed and a baby?
Big hugs,
Dana

These containers just go to show that if you are happy with yourself and your partner you can live in any amount of space and be very happy! ❤ I love how you guys interact so much! It has taught me to love on my spouse more and build him up more each and everyday! Thank you for being your true selves! I love you all so much!

This is a fantastic job and I really like the bed I have a 400 square foot apartment and I live with two fur babies and believe they have way too much. 😮 You guys are getting so close just a little bit more. Happy Easter everyone 🙏

Lou is super talented and I love how you both come together with ideas. The stairs are much better than the ladders. Plus a seat and storage!! And the hinged door instead of sliding because it's quieter. Little things that make a big big difference. Bless you and thank you so much for taking us on this journey. ❤

thanks so much gary!! we were definitely considering doing a window there but then with max we realized it would have to be closed for napping and sleeping and he would probably want to rip the shades down haha so thought lets just make it easier (and cheaper!) to just do the two windows instead of three

I love it, but I think you could lower yhe platform, because when you will put the mattress that will be tight to sit straight on it. Also I think that it will be nicer put a little horizontal window in the nook area. It will be a great idea, put a bed down the platform,, so you can pull out. I love the idea.

Looks so cosy! I dont want to sound like the worried know-it-all guy…just wanted to suggest routering the sharp edge of the windowsill next to the stairs. I know I would hit my head there for sure ^^ Maybe you are already aware of that edge, but from my own building projects I know, sometimes you overlook details you stare at so often… all the best and fingers crossed for a moving date asap :)

Hi there, it’s me again… wilderness living gal from northern 🇨🇦 enjoying your content on a chill Sunday morning (literally!). Whilst I don’t live in a small space, I don’t have a baby, I’m not hugely fond of stairs (due to 6 orthopaedic surgeries), and I am probably twice your age, there are so many cool things that we have in common. One of the true pleasures of YT and social media is the ability to share, learn, inspire, and connect with like-minded people. I 💯 love your creativity, your DIY determination, and your light footprint on this amazing planet. Thank-you for continuing to film, edit, and share this container build journey that you are on. I’ve enjoyed your content for many years and I look forward to each new “step” that you take. This lofted bed and storage spaces below are amazing!! Happy Easter to you and your family!! Ⓜary🐣🌸🐰

Beautiful work, Lou, i think you are a genius. I love the conscientious, intentional way you make decisions ! Our blueberry bushes flourish with lots of sun , and wood chips . We bought 5 different varieties , and of course, fenced them in , with netting over the top. Hugs for Max, love his big smile, a wonderful combination of the 2 of you!

You are so skillful and creative maybe build a loveseat on the other side of the door as you enter, so they did too, if you can sit and watch the fire together and Dana can have the perfect knitting spot. Blessings to your family and happy Easter.❤❤❤

You deserve every happiness and certainly your lovely son deserves both of you! Lucky boy. 😊

Hi, this is wonderful for a starting point. Looks beautiful and exciting, but how about when the baby gets older? After 5 years and up? How about when a second child comes and possibly a third? Where would you sleep? You may have to make a 2x the space you have to house all of you in the same space with rooms and bathrooms.

such a good call dawn!! we actually like really thin mattresses - we sleep on a mattress topper so its super firm only a couple of inches think so there's plenty of space for us to sit up :) max can stand right now but im sure before we know it he wont be able to stand up there anymore haha
