When it comes to designing spaces for kids, pristine and perfectly coordinated childhood bedrooms aren’t as common in real life as they are in the magazines – there’ll be toys on the floor and posters covering the walls. But it’s every kid’s dream to have a secret little hideaway that exponentially ups the fun and magic in his or her own bedroom. Hence the handmade bed crafted by Portuguese furniture artisans in Circu.
Called Second Bun Van, the Kombi-inspired bed brings some fun and imagination to a room, while paying tribute to one of the most iconic symbols of fun on the road. The Volkswagen Kombi is one of the most remarkable vehicles ever produced. Few other rides have the ability to turn heads and conjure a similar spirit of freedom, adventure and open roads.
The exterior of Circu’s Second Bun Van is made of fibre-glass with chrome plated finishes, while the interior is made of palisander wood veneer. Inside the bedroom van are several storage compartments, a kid-size bed, a television, a minibar and a micro-sofa.
A bed like this one will have kids begging to be sent to their rooms.
