Small Space, Big Style: Vacation Bunk Room Inspiration

When it comes to crafting Beautiful Places, every inch matters—especially in a cozy vacation home. Designer Kristina Crestin transformed this guest sleeping area into a stunning example of functional elegance, maximizing space without sacrificing comfort or style.

Nautical Inspiration Meets Summer Camp Charm

Taking cues from classic boat cabins, Crestin used every nook and cranny to create a bunk room that’s both practical and inviting. Each bunk—twin-size above for little adventurers, full-size below for older guests or couples—features:

  • Built-in cubbies with reading lights, books, and clock space
  • Clever stair risers that double as storage drawers
  • A magnificent reclaimed barn board ceiling, adding warmth and a nostalgic “summer-camp” feel

Materials & Partners

  • Furnishings: Casa Design
  • Light Fixtures: Newburyport Lighting
  • Rug: Landry & Arcari
