Kinds
Modern technologies have created many mechanisms of work and design options for built-in furniture. The main ones are:
- A folding bed, built into the closet, with a vertical mechanism - is in contact with the wall at the head of the bed.
- Built-in bed (horizontal mechanism) - the contact surface of the berth with the wall is lateral.
- An accordion bed is rather a built-in sofa bed.
Most potential consumers wonder if such furniture is reliable. There is a traditional rule: the avaricious pays twice. If you choose high-quality furniture from a renowned manufacturer for yourself, then the spring mechanism will last for many years and will not require the application of physical force when assembling / folding the bed. But in case you want to save money, it is better to abandon the purchase of a transformer bed, since low-quality furniture is primarily defects in the spring mechanism.
Transforming bed in the bedroom
The bed, built into the closet, is, first of all, saving space. So, if you are the owner of a small apartment with a tiny bedroom, where you need to place a lot of things, transformer furniture will be your salvation. It not only saves space, but also serves as an original design element. On the back of the folded structure, you can place a large mirror, a picture or a functional cabinet.
The horizontal built-in bed has, rather, a decorative function, since there is practically no space saving. But this is always an original decision when choosing a design.
In addition, the described bed quickly unfolds - you just have to fix the sheet and pillows.
Transforming furniture in the living room
Transformer furniture is a real salvation for a studio apartment, where you need to combine a kitchen, a dining room, a bedroom, a living room and a working corner in one room.
If you place a full bed or even a sofa in such a room, the furniture will give an uncomfortable look to the room. It would be much more correct to develop the design of the living room, which at night with one easy movement of the hand will turn into a cozy bedroom.
Another situation where the bed, built into the wall or closet, becomes relevant, is the hospitable owners in a small apartment. If you often encounter the need to accommodate a large number of guests at home, but do not have the opportunity to provide them with a separate room with sleeping places, transformer furniture is your salvation. Such beds are best decorated with functional cabinets or shelves.
Built-in bed in the nursery
A children's room is primarily a space for games, combining work and sleeping places. A bed occupying a good half of the room is unlikely to please the child, even if it is a soft car - such furniture items quickly bother the children. But the bed, built into the closet, for example, is both an unusual design of the room and space saving. As for the children's room, the built-in bed is indispensable here. Photos of your children, exotic landscapes or fairy-tale characters that decorate the back of the bed will create a unique atmosphere of the room.
Truly, transformer furniture serves as a salvation if you are forced to put two children in one room at once. It will be crowded and unfurnished, and you can hardly fit two full beds in the nursery. Therefore, pay attention to such an amazing solution as a bunk built-in bed.
By the way, the built-in bed may well become at the same time an element of a fabulous town for children's games. Under the lower tier can be sliding drawers for personal items. The same boxes are recommended to be located in the design of the stairs leading to the upper tier. Also on such an unusual element of furniture you can place the hanging elements of a sports wall - a horizontal bar, a rope ladder and more. The main thing is to fix everything securely.
When choosing a built-in bed for a child, pay attention to the spring mechanism and product design. It is better if the bed is lateral (it is easier to lay out) with a soft, but reliable spring mechanism.
Built-in sofa bed
Another amazing idea for a studio apartment is offered by modern designers - this is a wardrobe, sofa bed - almost three in one. A multifunctional design, which is a sofa and a built-in wardrobe in folded "daytime" form, and in a disassembled "night" - a full double bed. Such furniture occupies no more than one and a half squares in the assembled state and frees up a lot of space.
