Choose the Right Murphy Bed Style
Since space is limited in a studio apartment, why not choose versatile, space-saving furniture? Bestar has an array of different Murphy beds to choose from, so you’re sure to find the perfect addition for your space!
Murphy bed with Sofa
In a studio apartment, it’s crucial to get full use out of your space. If you’re looking for a multipurpose solution, why not consider a Murphy bed with sofa? This is a wonderful option for a studio apartment. By day, you can use the sofa to relax, watch a movie, read a book, or hang out with company. When you’re ready to get some shut eye, simply remove the cushions and fold the bed down onto the base of the sofa. Then you can enjoy a restful night’s sleep. Isn’t that so practical?
Murphy bed with desk
Do you need to set up an office space in your apartment? Well, look no further than a Murphy bed with a desk! You can work comfortably at the desk during the day, and sleep soundly in the bed at night. You can choose a model with a foldable desktop or a hideaway desk that folds into the cabinet. So convenient! Ready to use the bed? No problem! Simply fold the desktop or hideaway desk into the cabinet, clear the floor space and fold the bed down. What’s more, you can even opt for a model with storage cabinets to store all your work supplies neatly and efficiently.
In addition, Bestar wall beds have flexible mattress support systems and can accommodate most standard Queen and Full mattress sizes, so you’re free to choose the best mattress for you. No matter which Murphy bed you choose, you’ll have a practical and efficient solution for your space!
Optimize Space with Storage
In a small space, finding practical storage solutions is crucial. You don’t want to overcrowd your space with bulky storage furniture, but you also need room to store your belongings. With a Bestar Murphy bed, you’ll have a comfortable place to sleep and ample storage options at your disposal.
Depending on the amount of space you have, you can opt for a wall bed with one or two shelving units attached to the cabinet. Some models come with fixed and adjustable shelves, open and closed storage compartments, and even drawers on full-extension ball-bearing slides. Store clothing, linen, books, office supplies, movies, and more inside the unit. You can even choose a model that has doors to conceal your belongings and create a neat and organized space. If you find yourself needing more storage space, you can shop for closet organizers from the same collection to create a cohesive look.
Pay Attention to Color and Lighting
With any small space, finding creative ways to make your room feel bigger and more spacious is key. For that reason, it’s important to pay close attention to lighting and color. For starters, it’s a good idea to make use of the available natural lighting in your space. Consider placing your wall bed near a window so you can soak up as much natural sunlight as possible during the day. For additional light, you might opt for a tall floor lamp in a corner, a minimalist ceiling light in the middle of your space, or fairy lights to hang on the walls. That way, you’ll be able to add lighting and maximize space at the same time.
In addition, there are plenty of ways to add color to your space, without making it feel smaller than it actually is. For example, consider adding an accent wall in your room! This is a great way to create the illusion of a larger space and give the room some depth. If you opt for a darker color tone for the accent wall, be sure the other walls aren’t the same color. The goal is to create contrast and depth, without making the space feel busy or overcrowded.
Add Personal Touches with Decor
Last but certainly not least, it’s time to add personal touches to your apartment. Since floor space is limited, adding decor to the walls is a clever way to personalize your apartment. For instance, install floating shelves that match the color of your wall bed to display plants, decorative items, and more. If you’re a movie buff or art fan, why not add a poster of your favorite movie or artwork on the wall? This will give your apartment a unique, personal touch, while using the available space in your room.
If you have a Murphy bed with storage cabinets, you can easily display photos of your friends, family or pets in the open compartments. What’s more, you can also add trendy storage baskets or organizers on the shelves to store personal belongings for a clean, minimalist look. The possibilities are endless!
Between finding efficient ways to save space but also maximize every square inch of your room, it can seem nearly impossible to design an efficient studio apartment. But with a Murphy bed, you’ll have a comfortable bed and practical space that meets your every need.
