Very clever design, yet one problem: what will you do when the kids get older?

How can Dezeen feature this when it is quite obvious the play area is not child friendly. But then again, if a child breaks his/her neck, then it’s the child’s fault, right???

Am not very comfortable with the location of the crib. Too near the radiator, and too near the shelving from where even a baby can pull stuff to choke on. And anything mom or dad puts on those shelves near the ceiling can easily fall inside the crib and hurt the baby. Attractive minimalist design, but might not necessarily be suited for the intended users.

And if the older kid gets ill. And the parents would like to be next to the bed. Can they climb there?? Can they check the high temperature …
Or if the kid gets diarrhea and has to go to toilette every 5 minutes, what then?

Such a big structure. The older kid is abut 3. What will happen after 3 years when the older kid will be 6, and the younger 3. He won’t be baby anymore.
And after 6 years…
Children room need fast changes. Not furniture-monuments.

Oh its about furniture. I though that the photos are from some campaign against torturing children.
Its good for “Sixth sense 3″

I think this is clever
It allows the seven year old to feel like he has his own room while also accommodating a baby in a cot. It will allow the parent to attend to the baby through the night without disturbing the older child, while providing much play and climbing opportunities.
A lot more interesting than off the shelf bunk bed combinations.
I’m sure it has ample hidden storage and the potential for personalisation with additional flexible elements/furniture, toys, pictures, paint finishes such as blackboard and pin boards etc.
Yes, perhaps the angles are too sharp and these images make it seem a bit cold, but the addition of rails and soft fall type finishes will easily resolve safety concerns.
Not sure how it would be in warmer climates, could be a bit stuffy but it gives a fresh perspective on the potential in designing children’s furniture.

Really, the detail that most concerns me is the dropoff below the desk. As soon as the poor child nudges his chair closer it will slip off of the platform. And no handrail on the stairs?

It’s awful!, these angles hurts just looking at them! where is the liberty of the spase? or childrens creativity? This is architectural diktat!
I feel sorry for the kid….. and the stupid pictures where the child write something- look the legs.
In such rigid structure should be lock up the architects!!!
