How to Design a Room Around Your Pull-Out Sofa

The best get-togethers are those that seem to never end. Sleeper sofas make watching movies, playing games, or just catching up over a glass of wine an easy overnight affair. Host holiday visitors right in your living room with pull-out sectionals, or set up sleepovers for multiples in the guest room with loveseat sleepers.

When adding a piece of furniture that can dramatically expand and contract, it’s key to consider the room’s layout and decor. Here are our best tips for easy, functional designing around a pull-out sofa.

Choose the best size and shape for your space

Most Beautiful Things

With the range of sofa sizes and shapes available today, you can easily add a sleeper to nearly any room in your home—the living room or family room, the home office, or even a large guest bedroom. In most cases, these pieces will function first and foremost as couches and secondly as beds.

With that in mind, first consider how the piece will fit into the designated area as a sofa. For large rooms, get optimal seating with a full sectional arrangement. For a tighter space, a small loveseat pushed up against the way may be all you need.

Also, evaluate the mattress size that would be most appropriate for both your daytime couch-sitters and your overnight guests. A twin mattress is the perfect sleeping spot for a single person, but they’re typically only available within daybeds or two-cushion couches. If you can swing it space-wise, choose a queen-sized pull-out bed—it’s the most useful and versatile, providing enough room for one to two guests without overwhelming the space.

Keep comfort in mind

Just as important as sofa size and shape, the comfort level of your couch is integral to the perfect sleeping setup. The sofa cushions should be plush enough that guests sitting on them would never know that beneath them is an entire pull-out contraption. The thicker the cushions, the better. A firm fabric such as a tight-weave linen-like upholstery or slick natural leather also helps protect guests from the metal bars inside the furniture.

Next, think about the mattress itself. While you should look for sleepers with thick, comfortable mattresses, remember that you can always add a super-plush mattress topper to any bed for cloud-like coziness.

Place a thick and textured throw blanket in complementary colors over the arm of the couch—it can double as extra warmth for sleepover guests.

Use storage furniture to hold bed linens

Schneiderman’s

Store extra pillows, sheets, and blankets in the guest room in attractive storage furniture that doubles as decor. Place linens in decorative baskets and bins in the corners of the room, or tuck them away in hidden media center drawers or cabinets. Choose a storage space that’s extra-roomy, and swap out bedding with sofa pillows and blankets until morning to keep the space clutter-free. You’ll save space in your linen closets, and you’ll make everything easy to access for your guests.

Add versatile furniture

Schneiderman’s

If your sofa-sleeper just so happens to be the main seat in the living room, it will serve primarily as a seating area. You’ll likely need a coffee table and at least one end or sofa table, depending on the size of the piece. But to make the sitting area functional as both a lounge space and a makeshift bedroom, you’ll want furniture that’s easy to rearrange. For example, a lightweight acrylic or rattan coffee table is much easier to push aside than a solid stone or concrete drum table.

If you still want to incorporate a hefty natural material into the room, look for tables with marble, stone, or thick-cut glass tops and airy, open bases. The same advice applies to side tables. Or, if you still want to add a solid, sculptural metal or wood table with some weight to it, let that one act as a nightstand when the pull-out bed is in use.

Accent chairs, lounge chairs and armchairs should all be arranged clear of the pull-out space. To allow the overnight guest room to breathe and to avoid boxing the bed in with auxiliary furniture, arrange these spare seats so that they are flanking the sofa area. Angle the chairs out and away from the sofa to create a layout that feels open.

Illuminate with all-purpose lighting

homedit

As with furniture, you don’t want the hassle of rearranging the lighting when it’s time to pull out the couch for the night. Arc floor lamps are the perfect all-purpose option for sleeper sectionals, sofas, and loveseats alike. Specifically designed to fit behind a couch or chair, the arched neck of these lights maximizes the area the illumination covers, and the overhead design allows it to easily convert to a nighttime reading lamp for those tucked into the pull-out.

Another option that works for the entire space is a chandelier or overhead flush mount (use multiple flush mounts, if the space requires a little extra brightness) paired with a table lamp or two. Keep one table lamp on an adjacent side table that can do double duty as a bedside light for overnight guests.

Style decorative objects in the name of simplicityApartment Therapy/Pippa Drummond

Carefully consider the décor that sits atop the furniture pieces you’ll need to move when you pull out the bed. For example, think about the coffee table or ottoman in front of the couch. Instead of creating an elaborate tablescape of candles, hardcover books, vases, and other decorative objects, keep it simple and choose just a couple of items to display. You can still decorate with all the accessories you originally wanted—just spread them throughout the entire room, placing on console tables, wall shelves, and display pedestals instead of clustering most on the main surface.

If you plan to host overnight guests often, consider taking a minimalist approach to the decor in that particular room. As a DIY bedroom, it should be zen and welcoming, and a color palette of soft, neutral hues is visually comforting in a bedroom.

Pull-out sofas help you make the most of the space in your home. Try to make the most of the sleeper itself by surrounding it with accommodating furniture in a functional layout. Your future couch crashers will love you for it. Happy hosting!

Living room with a bed and a sofa: interesting design options 0 Comments

Arranging a bed and a sofa in the living room is a great way to economically distribute living space. The design of a studio apartment involves dividing the area into functional zones, while organizing sleeping and guest places. This is made possible through the use of interesting design techniques.


Zoning options

Before equipping the bedroom-living room, you need to choose a place to sleep. Let's analyze the possible zoning options:

  1. The sleeping place is placed away from the door. It is better to place the bed next to the window, on the opposite side from the entrance.
  2. Many rightly consider the bedroom a personal space where a person should feel secure and calm. The design of the living room with a bed and a sofa is developed taking into account the wishes of the owner, the presence of a partition is implied. The lack of natural light is more than made up for by floor lamps, spotlights and wall lamps.
  3. If the area is large, demarcation is allowed by means of a plasterboard partition. Thanks to the installation of wall to ceiling, a small bedroom is created. The disadvantage of such zoning is that light does not penetrate into the living room. If you install a partition up to half the ceiling, this will not interfere with the ingress of sunlight and ensures the isolation of the bedroom.
  4. The space is divided by a matte partition, which clearly demonstrates the line between the functional areas.
  5. Zoning of such a living room is possible through sliding curtains. Thick curtains will ensure the privacy of the situation, and light ones will highlight the edge of the bedroom, while maintaining the holistic significance of the room. Curtains made of faceted glass beads look interesting and unusual.
  6. The installation of a bed in the hall is possible due to the use of sliding partitions that will not overload the space. The width of the partition may vary. Mobile screens allow you to change the area, increasing the living room or reducing the bedroom. During the arrival of guests, the entertainment area expands, then the partition takes its original position.
  7. You can zone a living room of a small area by means of a rack without a back wall, which is used in order to save things that are dear to your heart. This design does not interfere with the penetration of sunlight.
  8. Zoning of the room is possible through visual effects: different flooring structures, contrasting walls, etc.
  9. A small podium with built-in drawers allows you to allocate a sleeping place.
  10. Separation of space is also possible through original lighting methods. For example, in the bedroom you can dim the light, and in the living room make it brighter.

When forming zones where a sofa and a bed are located in the same room, special attention should be paid to the design to preserve the overall style of the room.


Where to hide the bed?

The living room with a sofa and a bed dictates its own rules: in the daytime it plays the role of a guest room, at night - a bedroom. During the day, the bed can be hidden to increase living space.

Placing a bed in the living room is possible thanks to the use of interesting design ideas:

  1. You can not hide the bedroom, but introduce it into the daytime atmosphere.
  2. The bed can be placed behind the chair backs.
  3. An interesting solution is a transforming bed that turns into a closet during the day.
  4. If the apartment has high ceilings, you can install a bed by placing it above the dressing room.

The original idea is a bed hiding under the ceiling during the day and falling down in the evening. It is well fastened with metal chains and frees up the necessary space.


Interior design ideas

There are many creative ideas for arranging a bedroom-living room:

  1. There is no separation of the room, thanks to which it is possible to save space and natural light. It is used regardless of the area of ​​​​the room and the number of windows. Zones can be distinguished if you choose and arrange the furniture correctly.
  2. The construction of a wall of lightweight building material. This option can be used in a rectangular room with several window openings. If there is only one window, a glass partition is constructed.
  3. Doors on rollers hide the bed and divide the room into zones.
  4. The bed is hidden behind the curtains in a niche.
  5. The bed part is formed behind racks that let sunlight into the common area.
  6. The bedroom is separated by a folding screen.
  7. If there is a child, two beds are placed in the room. At the same time, a children's bed is installed parallel to the lower part of the adult bed, thus maintaining the overall style of the room.

The optimal zoning option is selected, taking into account the parameters of the room, the location and number of windows, the height of the ceilings, and the individual preferences of the owners.


Which style of bed should I choose?

For zoning, the following styles are best suited:

  1. Classic - characterized by conciseness and rigor.
  2. Ethnic (Provence, African, Japanese styles) - the division is carried out using painted screens.
  3. Modern trends (techno, minimalism, hi-tech) create a comfortable and pleasant environment.

The design is reflected not only in the aesthetics of the living space, but also in the sensations of the household. It is important that the design style matches the character and preferences of the inhabitants of the house.

What are the best materials to use?

When zoning, different building materials are used:

Proper use of finishing materials allows you to clearly distinguish between the bedroom and the living room.


Upholstered furniture

If the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe room allows, you can put a small sofa and armchairs in the living room. Furniture upholstery and color may vary. An interesting design will turn out if you choose different colors of the sofa and chairs.

When creating a bedroom-living room, preference should be given to a folding sofa, armchairs. This will save the necessary space.

Folding furniture has a significant disadvantage - it will have to be assembled and disassembled daily.

The guest area is furnished with compact furniture. A good option would be a corner and U-shaped sofa with a small table. You can store clothes in chests of drawers, corner cabinets that do not take up much space.

Cabinet furniture

In addition to the sleeping area, you need to pay attention to the dressing room. Specialists use a number of options for mounting the cabinet in the guest area. The wardrobe is closed with a sliding glass door that lets in light.

Small rooms are equipped with a transforming bed built into the closet. With one movement of the hand, the living room turns into a bedroom.

Thanks to the high ceilings, you can install a podium with a bed that extends thanks to the wheels.

The range of furniture is amazing. It is made from quality materials, decorated with unusual elements. In addition to the sofa and bed, you will need:

  1. Sliding wardrobe, convenient and compact. Allows you to accommodate a large number of clothes, bedding sets and other wardrobe items.
  2. Glass coffee table.
  3. Racks and bookshelves located on the wall look great, do not clutter up the space, allow you to lay out printed materials, arrange flower pots.
  4. Bedside cabinets made of wood, allowing you to accommodate a lot of useful little things.
  5. A sofa with a removable side that can be used as a table.
  6. The bed is equipped with drawers where you can store bed linen, off-season items.

The owner of the apartment can, on his own or with the help of a designer, think over the interior so that all its components are harmoniously combined with each other.


Highlights

When planning to place a bed and a sofa in the living room, it is important to consider bright accents that will distract attention from the relaxation area. Organically fit into the design of fabric products, as well as accessories of catchy colors, visually increasing the area.

The room is decorated in a single color scheme, and functional areas are accentuated with interesting panels. The plots of the paintings should not stand out from the general style.

Before placing souvenirs, porcelain figurines on the shelves, you need to consider how appropriate their use is in the chosen style direction.

The sophisticated interior of the bedroom-living room will help create the right details. Houseplants are an important decorative element.

By thinking carefully about the design of the living room with a bed and a sofa, you will get a multifunctional space that will be pleasant for both the owners and guests.

Types of beds in the hall

Modern designers offer both standard and rather unusual beds for the living room.

Podium bed

To save space in a small room, a podium design is perfect. It combines a mattress and a frame with drawers that play the role of a closet: bedding or clothes are removed inside.

The photo shows a comfortable roll-out podium bed with an additional seating area above.

Sofa layout mechanisms

This solution is chosen by the owners of small apartments, for example, Khrushchev. The advantage of a sofa bed is that it folds easily and turns into a full-fledged place for receiving guests: all that remains is to choose a comfortable coffee table that can be easily moved around the room.

The photo shows a stylish sofa bed unfolded.

Convertible bed

This is the case when you don't have to choose between functionality and fashionable design. The lifting mechanism will allow you to easily hide the bed in a built-in niche and save up to 80% of space. If the interior is designed in the style of minimalism, then furniture hidden during the daytime is a good solution.

Pictured is a Scandinavian living room with a fold-out bed that only folds out at night.

Bunk

Ergonomic bunk furniture is usually purchased by families with children, but its use in the living room is also justified. Due to the second "floor", the number of beds doubles or even triples.

Baby crib

The layout of the living room combined with the nursery has a number of features:

In the photo, thick curtains separate the children's corner from the recreation area.

Loft bed

If the ceiling height in the apartment allows, an extraordinary solution for combining the living room and bedroom will be a loft bed. This arrangement will delight creative people, giving new sensations, and freeing up precious meters under the bed.

"in the attic" and in a cozy sitting area downstairs.

Armchair-bed

Multifunctional armchair turns into a single bed in one movement, and when assembled it does not steal extra space. Some models have a storage box.

Built-in

This bed is the perfect find for those who want to hide their bed in a closet with storage shelves.

The size of the bedroom furniture depends on the size of the apartment.

9 best ways to hide the bed

Glass or plasterboard partitions will help to correctly divide the room into zones. There are also simpler options - in a small living room, you can fence off the space with a shelving or wardrobe, or hide the sleeping furniture behind a screen. If you use a bed in the living room instead of a sofa, it will not differ much from a regular bedroom: in this case, visitors need additional armchairs or chairs.

You can visually zone a room using different wall finishes. Combined options look curious when cabinet furniture (or a partition) is placed in the center of the living room and, in addition, a curtain is hung.

Living Room Design Ideas

The living room can be called the main room in the house. Family members spend a lot of time here, so its design should be thought out especially carefully. The original ideas presented below can also be drawn by studio owners so that they do not have to "sleep in the kitchen."

Interior with bed and sofa

If the area of ​​the living room exceeds 20-25 sq.m., then it will not be difficult to fit both the bed and the sofa.

In the photo, the corner sofa is separated from the sleeping area by a white rack with open shelves. Zoning is also achieved through a contrasting blue wall.

Living room with niche

The recessed bed looks especially cozy. Together with textiles, the niche turns into a secret room fenced off from prying eyes.

With two beds

Even a family of four can be accommodated in the living room if it is equipped with a pull-out sofa and two beds located one above the other.

Soaring

Such a hi-tech hanging bed will give the interior a special chic and originality, but will not hide the private area, but is guaranteed to draw attention to it.

Design solutions for beds in different styles

The bed is the central attribute around which space is formed and style is formed. For supporters of minimalism, a sleeping place hidden behind air compartment doors is suitable. Adherents of the loft will appreciate the podium bed and zoning with plain curtains: light fabric will dilute the brutality of the finish.
