(It's really dark under there now. The desk lamp is nice, but I've also got the ceiling wired up for some LED strip lights when I get around to it)
I live in a tiny ass little apartment, and my bedroom is only about 8'x10', so this was needed.
It's all built from 2x4s and maple plywood. I considered just buying an Ikea bunk bed, but this ended up being sturdier, and cheaper.
All in all it's a pretty sleek piece of space saving furniture.[/QUOTE]
Looks absolutely fantastic thag, that custom metal ladder just really sets it off. Once you get proper lighting that setup will be perfect!

I've really been wanting to do this. (I have a very small bedroom too. But a very high ceiling.) Mind telling us more about it? My dad is totally a Jew and knows NOTHING about building or woodworking, haha, but I'm pretty good with my hands. How hard was it? What kind of tools do you need? And did you also build the desk underneath?

I have an image gallery here that has a bunch of photos I took making the thing. It should be of some insight.

For tools, I'd reccomend at least a table saw, and a chop saw. A band saw was nice too for all the little rounded edges, but most of that you could just do with a hand saw. A biscuit joiner came in handy, but you could just use wood glue and screws if you don't have one.

I actually have some white LED lights, designed less for looking cool and more for illumination.

I like the Liberty City Area Map on the wall there, nice touch.
Also, heading to IKEA to pick up a new desk, chair and bookshelf on thursday, will post pics.
I'm at my parents' house for the week so this is my temporary desk.

Don't be such an xbox fanboy. :D
Cool setup, when I had a loft at college I always thought it would be cool to hang the LCD stand from underneath the bed and then do the rotate 180 degree thing in the control panel, never did though.

Yeah, it's really nice and it's pretty quite when typing.
