Hasta La Gadget!

It’s bedtime, so get in your medieval pajamas, lower the drawbridge and open the gate. This castle-style Murphy bed is from Etsy seller Tiny Town Studios and comes with hand carved fake stones, chain beams, and even faux moss and vines. 

It looks awesome and I envy the kid who gets to sleep in this fold-out bed. Though I’m wondering if this means that you are sleeping over the moat. Don’t roll out of bed or you might get a surprise.

The castle Murphy bed sells for $3,500(USD). The shop can also make a pirate ship bed or a spaceship bed, or just about anything else you can dream up if this isn’t your thing.

The Game of Thrones opening credits are just begging to have someone build a real-world replica. Just imagine a wooden version of the keep at Winterfell as a model with moving pieces that you could buy. How awesome would that be? You could buy the buildings separately and put them all together.

Well, Max and Tijn Berends have made a wooden expandable castle shown in this video. Okay, not really. It’s not real. They made it look real by using Blender 3D to create a digital castle. It’s a neat trick.

Don’t get your hopes up that they will re-create the whole intro. This building took about three months to create by itself.

If you’d like to play with the model, animations and textures for yourself, you can grab the Blender 3D files here.
