Designer Steve Kuhl fulfills every boy’s fantasy with this insanely cool pirate ship bedroom. The six-year-old occupant from Minnesota chose between a space ship, race car, castle, and pirate ship. Most of us would probably agree, he made an excellent decision.
The main feature of the room is the incredible floating pirate ship. Kuhl used 2x12 ribs to construct the hull of the ship, covering them with layers of 1/2 inch plywood to act as the planking. A bomb-proof blend of plaster and epoxy with integrated coloring was used simulate an old ship’s hull.
But that’s not all. The room is also decked out with a rope bridge that connects the pirate ship to the top of a jail cell, and a rope suspended from the ship’s hull provides drop-in access to the closet. There’s also a completely hidden spiral slide, that lets you travel downstairs in a more adventurous way. Kuhl Design Build websiteI’m in awe.
Every boy’s fantasy? Are you kidding? A bedroom like this was my dream as a kid.
Adding to the Canada Plan, then.
As a child?
I want this bedroom now.
WANT WANT WANT *GRABBY HANDS*
As a broceanography, I BLOODY NEED THIS.
^ Rebloobing as proof of pure SILLINESS! ^

I NEED THIS NOW.
Seriously, who says this has to be for boys? At 8 years old my favorite outfit was a sleeveless sailor blouse and matching pedal pushers. I loved riding on boats. I found my dad’s fencing epee in a storage closet and I would drag it out and play with it whenever I could. I made my own fencing costume and dressed as a fencer for Halloween in high school. I joined the Navy for fuck’s sake and learned how to sail keel boats while I was in. PIRATE SHIPS AND ACTIVE PLAY ARE NOT JUST FOR BOYS, PEOPLE!
Oh my god… My ovaries…
Oh my God this makes me think of Wood Kingdom and I want this so much…
Who said this room was just for kids?
I reblogged this about a year ago and it is to awesome not to reblog again.
This looks like the Booty Bay pub! DO WANT!
Seriously. I am an adult and will gladly pay this man to design my house in such a way.
