26 Bedrooms That Prove Twin Beds Can Work Throughout Your House
Good enough for kids or adults!
As an adult, the thought of laying down in a twin bed may sound like a nightmare if you shared a bedroom with a sibling growing up—or like a dream if bunking with a roommate was a cherished highlight of your time in college. Instead of putting twin beds in a box of memories, think outside of using them solely for children's rooms! At House Beautiful, we're here to prove that twin beds will always be relevant, especially for visiting adults who stay the night in guest rooms.
Whether it is one bed, or two identical beds side-by-side that make them twice as fun to look at and decorate with, you can use creativity to explore how to make twin beds work in your home. A twin bed is a million times cozier than a futon (someone had to say it!) and is less of an eyesore. You can bring a twin bed into a large guest room if you're hosting a family or give your guest room a bespoke hotel vibe. A twin bed can even work double time in your office, better known as your extra bedroom.
To help you relive your former days of glory, we decided to spotlight our favorite designer bedrooms with chic twin beds that are packed with personality, comfort, and function. Maybe you're designing a bedroom for actual twins who have distinct design preferences, or a returning college graduate who wants to feel empowered in their space, or just all the guests you plan to host. Either way, the twin bed decorating ideas below will create new and stylish memories. Trust us, you'll find yourself sleeping on them too.
