The bottom bed can be sent out perpendicularly, and dresser drawers installed in the remaining underspace. Or you can merge all of these elements into an L shaped configuration… two beds forming an L on top, a third bed underneath one side, and the remaining side filled with any storage or desk solution you can possibly imagine.
