We know more and more people are living in small spaces, which means kids are sharing even smaller bedrooms.

我們知道現在越來越多人都住在小坪數空間，也就是說孩子們共享更小的房間。

So we challenged ourselves to make a fun, comfortable shared kids' room as small as possible for a 4 year old and an 8 year old.

所以我們這次的挑戰是替一個四歲和八歲的孩子打造一個歡樂、舒服且極小的房間。

The key is to create smart, safe solutions using age-based planning, personal spaces and adaptable furniture.

關鍵在於以年齡層規劃法、私人空間、適合該年齡的家具來創造趣味性十足又安全的空間。

We started with a loft bed that's up high for the 8 year old.

首先，我們從八歲孩子睡的上鋪著手。

Below, where it's easier to get in and out, we put in an extendable bed for the 4 year old.

下舖會比較好出入，所以我們放置了一個延伸床給四歲的孩子。

Then we added personal storage above and under their beds.

接著我們在他們床的上方和下方都增加了個人儲藏空間。

Curtains give each kid a private space, and the bottom one detaches easily.

窗簾讓每個小孩都有自己私人的空間，而下面那個是可分離式的窗簾。

The loft bed comes with storage, so we made this a wardrobe corner for the 8 year old.

上下舖本身就有儲藏空間，所以我們替八歲孩子做了這個小衣櫥。

We filled the corner with hooks at different heights; a step stool helps reach the top rows.

我們也在牆角釘了高低不同的掛鉤；踩踏凳就能讓你勾到最上層那一排。

A mirror is a must—especially an unbreakable one.

鏡子是必需品—尤其時不易碎的那種。

The 8 year old's space continues with a spot for schoolwork; the desk adapts to height, too.

八歲孩子我們還幫他規劃了做作業的空間；書桌也是可依據身高做調整的。

Kids learn by copying, so we made a similar work and play space for the 4 year old.

孩子們從模仿中學習，所以我們也打造了一個類似工作和遊戲的空間給四歲的孩子。

There's more play stuff here with a toy box on wheels and a doll's house that doubles as shelves.

這邊還有更多有趣的東西，一整箱可移動式的玩具箱，還有一個架在牆上的娃娃屋。

It's not always fun to share, so we used colours to highlight personal space.

分享固然重要，但並不全然必要，所以我們也利用顏色來分界個人空間。

Then we added cabinets at adult-only height for storing stuff like seasonal clothes.

接著，我們在成人才能觸及的高度增加了櫃子來儲藏季節性衣物。

The 4-year-old needs a wardrobe, too, so we put in hooks at low heights.

四歲的孩子也需要一個衣櫃，所以我們把掛鉤釘在較低的高度。

And two shelving units that we painted for a personal touch.

還有兩個夾層櫃，我們將它們上色以增加個人特色。

These boxes don't have lids, so they're not tempting to climb.

這些箱子都沒有蓋子，所以他們不會吸引孩子去攀爬。

It's a safety thing, just like window catches.

這是必須注意的安全問題，就像這些窗把。

That's a lot of smart, fun solutions in one shared kid's room, but we squeezed it down to 6.7 square metres.

這些都是一個歡樂孩童房裡能做的有趣規劃，但我們必須把一切都濃縮到 6.7 平方米大小的空間。

We had to build it of course.

當然，我們必須把它實際創造出來。

Come on in, we'll show you how it's shared—and personal.

來吧！我們繼續看看這房間是如何被規劃成有共享空間也有私人空間的。

Different ages have different needs, so each kid can have important personal time in their cosy retreat.

每個年齡層都有不同需求，所以每個孩子都能在自己的舒適小窩享受個人時光。

...Where they can keep secrets, too.

...或者藏些自己的秘密。

And hooks high up keep certain things out of the younger one's reach.

在高處釘掛鉤可以防止孩子們亂拿東西。

But some needs are the same—like proper spots for studying math books or colouring books.

但孩子們有些需求也是一樣的—他們都需要可以唸數學和著色的地方。

They need space to play together, too, because they still do!

他們也需要有一起玩樂的空間，因為玩是不分年紀的！

Most of all, they need secure, comfy beds so the whole family sleeps soundly.

最重要的是，他們需要安全、舒適的床，全家才能安心入睡。

Ready to find the possibilities in your small space?

準備要發掘你家小空間無限的可能性了嗎？

Use age-based planning, personal spaces and adaptable furniture to make a safe, fun shared kid's room for growing up, not apart.

以年齡層規劃法、私人空間、有彈性的傢俱來創造有趣、安全的空間，讓孩子們一起安全長大。

Happy playing!

好好享受玩樂吧！
