Such furniture works better in small spaces and . The apartment sizes available to young Poles are rarely large, so when arranging bedrooms, functionality is the most important thing today. In order not to clutter the room and visually enlarge it, it is worth choosing clever solutions.
An ordinary, large bed can be replaced with sleeping furniture hidden in the wall or wardrobe, the so-called Murphy bed half-bed. This is nothing new, because similar solutions were used decades ago, but today they are experiencing a great renaissance in modern apartments.
The design of Murphy beds allows them to be folded vertically or horizontallyso you can simply hide it during the day and use the free space, because it does not take up space in the middle of the room during the day.
In small apartments or studios, this is an extremely useful solution because: A half-wall sofa allows you to gain space for various additional activities.
Thanks to this furniture, one room serves several different functions depending on the time of day. So at night the room is a bedroom or a guest room, and in the evening it is an office or simply a living room. This tidies up the entire space and stops it being cluttered.
Most Murphy bed models allow the use of comfortable mattresses (foam, spring or hybrid), tailored to the needs of a given person. Therefore, this piece of furniture is perfect for everyday use, not just occasionally.
A mezzanine can also be a good alternative to a traditional bed. This solution works well in interiors with high ceilingsbecause by moving the sleeping space to a “higher level”, you can use the free space below to meet other needs.
You can, for example, put a desk there, a wardrobe, or create a tiny living room. As you can see, sometimes a little cleverness is enough to make a small apartment more functional.
