How to Make a Bed in a Wall

I was just roaming the net today and was reminded of a cubby bed I’d once seen visiting a camp with a friend.

The bed was literally inside a wall. Having remembered that, I thought it would be a cool idea to offer some woodworking plans on those for anyone who’s interested.

Sadly, what I found was small, but they are enough to get by if you’re good with home improvement projects.

You will have to have a room that’s big enough because you do actually have to add to the wall in order to create the bed behind one. I know, it sounds contradictory, but you’ll know what I mean when you check out the information on building one.

I’d recommend you start with the discussion Building a Kid’s Bed… Inside the Wall–it includes some photos, and then move onto Do it Yourself: How to Build a Recessed Bed in the Wall.

If this works great for you, let me know. I’d love to see some photos of the results or add an actual DIY on this site of how to do this type of project.
