Project Description

Located in Long Island City, this project for the Yeh family pushed the limits of what’s possible in vertical design. The Zen Space Makers team created a triple-decker loft system that turned a small urban room into a functional, architectural feature. Each level was designed for safety, comfort, and creativity, forming a striking yet balanced centrepiece.

lients Goals

David Yeh and his family needed a smart spatial solution for their children that combined sleeping, storage, and play within a minimal footprint. The goal was to create something both practical and imaginative — a design that maximised ceiling height while maintaining aesthetic harmony.

Eco-Friendly Products

Knowledge is power, especially in the world of investing. Take the  time to learn the fundamentals of the stock market, including key  concepts like stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and exchange-traded funds  (ETFs). Online courses, books, and reputable financial websites can be  valuable resources to enhance your understanding.

Key Services Provided:

  • Bespoke loft bed and cabinetry design
  • Multi-level (triple-decker) loft structure
  • Staircase with built-in storage
  • Integrated cabinetry and shelving
  • On-site fabrication and installation

Project Solutions

To utilise the vertical space effectively, the team designed a three-level loft bed structure that stacked gracefully, like a miniature skyscraper. Each tier was handcrafted with precise measurements to ensure safety, proportion, and comfort. The staircase served dual purposes — easy access and hidden storage — while the custom cabinetry tied the design together seamlessly.

Materials & Craftsmanship

This project showcases the workshop’s engineering precision and fine joinery. Built from high-quality hardwood and premium-grade panels, each piece was finished with Zen’s signature balance of function and form — minimal, strong, and timeless.

Challenges & Innovations

Designing a triple-decker system in a compact space required exact calculations for load distribution, headroom, and usability. The solution was a combination of structural reinforcement and layered modular design — transforming a tight footprint into a soaring vertical habitat.

Outcome

The result is an inventive and joyful space that celebrates design ingenuity. The Yeh family now enjoys a safe, dynamic environment that feels both playful and architectural — a true example of Zen Space Makers’ ability to find serenity through smart design.

“We approached Zen Space Makers because of their ability to deliver creative craftsmanship in compact spaces. The team was receptive and responsive to our design ideas, and the result was a fantastic, unique bunk bed for our kids. We would recommend!”
