During the day, the living room, dining area, and workspace can transform into a comfortable bed, making it ideal for compact urban homes.
According to architect Phạm Thanh Truyền, one of the most common challenges clients face in modern home design is maximizing functionality within a very limited space. Architecturally, addressing this issue is difficult unless a mezzanine is added or the usable area is expanded. A practical solution to this problem is the use of smart furniture.
Smart furniture is widely used abroad and has recently gained popularity in Vietnam. These multifunctional pieces take up minimal space while meeting various needs, often at a lower cost than purchasing separate furniture items. Many of these products are readily available on the market.
Dining Table-Bed Combination
This solution allows a dining area and bedroom to coexist in a small space, ensuring a well-ventilated, neat, and functional home.
A foldable sofa bed provides a sleeping area for two people while allowing the homeowner to comfortably receive guests and work when needed.
Bookshelf, Wardrobe, Staircase, and Desk Combined with a Bunk Bed
This cleverly designed wooden bunk bed incorporates a sliding-door wardrobe, staircase, bookshelf, storage drawers, and a study desk for two people. Items under 34 cm in height, such as laptops and books, do not need to be moved when unfolding the bed.
2-in-1 Wardrobe Bed
Wardrobes are essential but often bulky and space-consuming. A smart solution is a wardrobe featuring two compartments for hanging and folding clothes, along with a hidden two-tier bookshelf behind the bed, keeping the space tidy and stylish.
Wall-Bed with Storage
A wall-mounted bed features two storage drawers at the headboard and a cushioned backrest. When not in use, it can be folded up, revealing a large mirror on the underside—perfect for grooming and dressing.
This foldable bed system, priced at approximately 18 million VND, creates extra space for shared family activities.
