                                            Built In Beds

 

 

                          Full Bed              Single Bed         Bed over Couch

 

Built-in bedding can be utilized in order to reduce the size of bedrooms or to even eliminate the need for a bedroom altogether.

 

Full Bed Pull Out

 

This full bed unit would appear to be built into an exterior wall.  Actually the exterior wall is extended out seven feet and slopes down at a 45 degree angle to end at a height of three feet.  This cavity then holds the bed on wheels and a rail so that it can be pulled out at night.  The cavity above the bed would hold pull-out drawers and would have a storage cabinet above the drawers.  The entire unit would be concealed behind sliding doors during the day.  This unit drastically reduces cubic feet traditionally devoted to a full bed and accompanying furniture.

Single Bed              

​

This bed unit would take up 7 feet by 3 feet of floor space.  The system could either be free standing or built into the wall.  It would be similar to a captain’s bed with drawers underneath and storage and shelves over it.  Note that it has four feet of sitting space between the bed and upper cabinet.  It could even have a pull around curtain for those that sleep in the daytime or those not able to make the bed each day.

Bed Over Couch        Back to Top

 

This unit is similar to a sideways Murphy bed.  It would stick out about eighteen inches from the wall, but over a couch so that no floor-space is lost.    At bedtime the unit would simply drop down and the built-in ladder would be extended.  The couch would still be available for sleeping on.
