My first studio with the foldaway bed and corner sofa

When it comes to interior design , we all face the same challenge: optimizing space . It is then a question of setting up a functional place , while ensuring a pleasant living environment. To combine design and practicality, the foldaway wardrobe beds that have been developed in recent years are a real godsend.

Serving in turn as an extra bed, sofa, storage space or even a desk, the modular and multifunctional elements are popular solutions for all interiors. In the living room, in a child's bedroom, in a guest room or in a master suite, they are perfectly suited to all uses. Today, it is the Swing sofa bed that particularly interests us. In addition, thanks to the motorization , opening your foldaway bed has never been so simple.

Choosing the Murphy bed with sofa for small spaces

It is the story of Paul and Jeanne that we are going to tell you today. This fifty-year-old couple lives in the South of France and is used to occupying a beautiful living space: they live in a spacious house outside the city. Their 20-year-old son, Antoine, is leaving to live in Lyon in a few months for his studies. His parents therefore decided to invest in a small apartment to accommodate him for a few years.

Then they can rent it out to other students and earn extra income every month. Their challenge is therefore significant: to optimize this small apartment so that their son can feel comfortable there, he who is also used to the great outdoors ! Rather than opting for a mezzanine bed , a bench seat or a convertible sofa , Paul and Jeanne were immediately interested in the concept of a folding bed .

They were indeed looking for a solution combining beautiful design and everyday use , which could furnish the studio in the long term. Among the wide choice of modular furniture available at the Maison du Convertible, it was the 2-seater Murphy bed with sofa that they finally chose. Let’s follow them on their pre-purchase journey!

The Murphy bed with corner sofa: the choice of options

With the limited space available in Antoine's new nest, it was imperative that every corner of the studio be optimized. They first agreed together on the development priorities . Antoine absolutely wanted a real traditional bed and did not want to sleep on his sofa every day. It was important for him to have two truly distinct elements. For a young student, our expert first thought of a swivel bed with an integrated library module : ideal for providing multiple storage spaces for Antoine. The design of this folding bed was very successful and would have looked great in the studio.

However, he still made it clear to his parents that he wanted a real lounge area so he could host friends and relax between two revision sessions. The Swing retractable bed with integrated sofa therefore proved to be the suitable solution, especially as it offers a large storage box. Antoine will therefore be able to store his books and files in this large space.

The advantage of the retractable wall bed with sofa is the possibility of personalizing it according to your wishes. To have a real friendly living room space , the family turned to an integrated corner sofa with chaise longue and storage box . Thanks to the liftable bed, Antoine will also be able to choose a real mattress: what suits him best is memory foam bedding. Then, it was design that they had to focus on. The possibilities were numerous, difficult to choose! Especially three...

The son finally won the game and let himself be tempted by a very trendy navy sofa . Matched with a white finish for the wall bed, the effect obtained is very chic. The blue and white mix is ​​reminiscent of the seaside spirit : perfect for thinking about your native region!

• Everyday life with a retractable bed wardrobe with sofa

The vertical Murphy bed with sofa will be a real central element of Antoine's studio. Indeed, during the day and evening you can enjoy a real lounge area , ideal for relaxing or reading a book. At night, all he has to do is deploy his wall bed to enjoy a real cozy bed. Paul and Jeanne are aware of the vital importance of sleep for a student and were therefore really keen to find the best solution to offer them good comfort.

The Swing integrated sofa bed: why this choice?

It's difficult to choose a vertical wall bed with sofa among all the models available in the Bimodal brand! So why did the Swing model win the votes? For many reasons. Its minimalist design perfectly matches Antoine's modern desires for his interior. But this module also integrates all the functions important to it: welcoming lounge area, storage box and wall bed . The family also particularly appreciated the hundreds of possible variations, which allowed them to have furniture 100% in their image .

Invest in a built-in sofa bed

Purchasing a 2-person Murphy bed with sofa is a significant investment, that's for sure. Much more expensive than a simple sofa bed or sofa bed, the wall-mounted sofa bed should rather be seen as a complete module and not as a simple piece of furniture. It immediately brings great character to all small spaces and gives the impression of living in a much more spacious apartment. In addition, you should know that it integrates several completely independent pieces of furniture, which allows you to personalize each element as you wish.

Paul and Jeanne are aware that by having invested in such a development project, their studio will have real added value when it is on the rental market.
