Materials:
A white twin bed with storage usually contains a strong bed frame that's constructed out of solid wood, like rubberwood or pine. You'll also find some bed frames made out of engineered wood or particle board with some containing a combination of metal and wood parts. Leyden Lewis suggests finding a white twin bed with storage that comes with 10 to 12 metal or wood slats for proper mattress support. Some beds will also come with centre supports and side rails as well. If there are drawers, there will likely be metal extension glides in order for the drawers to fully extend. There may also be metal or wooden drawer pulls. A white twin bed with storage may come with the tools required for building as well as any metal screws or hardware.
Design:
Most designs contain a typical bed frame or sit on four legs with storage often built into the side of the bed in the form of large drawers that can hold anything from clothing to bedding. Nate Berkus suggests finding a white twin bed with storage in the form of a bookcase headboard or built-in side nightstand shelves if you want a more traditional look. You might also find a twin bed with storage that sits on a tall box-style bedframe that lifts the mattress up and showcases multi-drawer storage underneath and shelving at the foot of the bed.
Style:
For a minimalist look that's ideal for both a teen's bedroom and a guestroom, a white twin bed with storage featuring a wood-slatted headboard with large bottom side drawers is both simple and streamlined. An option that's slightly more sophisticated is a white twin bed with storage with a faux leather button-tufted headboard and footboard and drawers that sit snuggly under the bed. Neal Beckstedt suggests opting for a white twin bed with storage that's a classic daybed style with a pull-out trundle that works well for sleepovers. A traditional style with a curved wood headboard and seamless pull-out drawers featured in the footboard would effortlessly complement light-washed hardwood flooring and neutral walls.
Additional features:
Interior decorator Frances Merrill notes that some older homes don't come with nearly enough closet space, so a white twin bed with storage that contains under-the-bed drawers with removable dividers works to make organization a simple task. You might also find additional storage in terms of a built-in bookcase headboard or even side nightstand shelves which create a uniform look. For those with little ones, you might consider a white twin bed with storage that also comes with a trundle bed which works well for friends staying over. It's also handy to find twin beds with storage that have cable management or even an integrated outlet or charger. A contemporary white twin bed with storage may also be painted or finished in eco-friendly and non-toxic paints and veneers.
