IKEA has revolutionized the world of furniture, decoration and design, with some historical lines and several pieces of furniture that have become a reference for other brands. Nordic design, deeply rooted in the idea of Bauhaus design, is a minimalist trend that is increasingly taking over the homes of millions of Americans, because life is simpler with simpler furniture and is calmer with a house with simple lines, basic colors, few ornaments and minimalist ideas, like those offered by IKEA.
One of IKEA’s conceptual matrices are multifunctional furniture, such as sofas that become beds, folding tables for small spaces and also some beds that offer the possibility of being multifunctional or even modular, that is, they change shape or layout depending on the size and the need for space.
The 2-In-1 IKEA Bedroom Furniture Anyone Wants Is Now Lowered in Price
The Kura bed from IKEA is a truly versatile and practical piece of children’s furniture, as it is reversible; That is, it aims to adapt to the changing needs of children as they grow. Its design is extremely ingenious and has been one of the Swedish brand’s bestsellers.
Basically, it can be converted from a low bed to a bunk bed, making it ideal for children of different ages or for bedrooms with little space. The idea behind the Kura bed is to offer a furniture solution that grows with the child, since being reversible it can be adapted to the different stages of child development.
- Early childhood: As a bunk bed, the Kura bed provides a safe and fun space to sleep and play, with the lower bed at ground level, following the Montessori concept, which encourages children’s autonomy.
- Older children: By inverting the structure, it becomes a low bed, perfect for preteens looking for a more independent and youthful space.
No Assembling and Disassembling: You Just Have to Flip It
If it is assembled to make a low bed (just turn it upside down), it offers the possibility of placing curtains with its high frame, which can be a playful option if you want to turn your child’s bed into a medieval fortress or a cave where he can read fantastic stories during bedtime, before sleeping.
But if it is assembled as a bunk bed, you immediately get a very fun play space downstairs, which can even be a sleeping space for when you receive a friend who comes to spend the night at a sleepover. You just put an inflatable mattress under there and it’s done in a matter of minutes.
IKEA also sells various fabric accessories to turn the bed into a very fun space, such as, for example, curtains that simulate an ice cream stand with windows on the sides and foot of the bed, or a kind of round dome that turns the bed into an exciting ocean scenery, with sea animal prints.
This bed is one of IKEA’s best-selling pieces of furniture in its entire history, and yet the company has just permanently lowered its price: it originally cost $299, but decided to reduce it by $50, leaving it at a final price of $249.
