What is transformable furniture?

Cluttering the living space with furniture is one of the main problems faced by residents of small apartments. Manufacturers of transformable furniture offer the optimal solution - turning one item into another. There is a mechanism that accomplishes this wonderful transformation in several stages.

A special mechanism turns the sofa into a bunk bed.

Thanks to the lifting device in the form of gas shock absorbers, the sofa can be easily unfolded and folded. Not only men, but also women and children can cope with this. The stability of the structure is ensured by brackets that secure it to the wall or hooks that are installed when the furniture is unfolded.

A transformable sofa into a bunk bed can be bought by those parents who have children of different sexes growing up. First of all, space in the nursery is saved, in addition, the room becomes cozy and attractive.

Specifics of a two-tier transformable sofa

The peculiarity of the furniture is that it can be used in very small spaces, for example, in a studio apartment. The sofa unfolds only in the upward direction.

A convertible sofa is well suited for small spaces.

The material used to make the frame must be very durable. MDF and chipboard are not suitable for these purposes. If the bottoms are broken, the structure not only loses its attractive appearance, but also becomes a threat to people. Therefore, strong types of wood are used to make transformable sofas: beech, ash, walnut. Accordingly, sofas have a higher price than average.

The transformer frame must be made of durable wood.

A very successful combination: a combination of metal parts and wooden ones. The sides, stairs, frames that hold the upper berth at the top parallel to the lower one are made of durable metal alloys that are not subject to deformation.

Sofas are made from a combination of metal and wood.

How to choose?

If a bunk sofa bed is required for children, you need to pay special attention to the reliability of the structures. On the 2nd floor there must be sides so that the child does not get injured. Be sure to take into account the height of the ceilings and the distance between the tiers of the sofa.

A children's sofa must have sides on the second floor.

If the ceilings are low and the height of the unfolded structure is more than 2 meters, it will be uncomfortable and uncomfortable at the top. The small distance between the shelves leads to the fact that the person in the lower berth cannot straighten his back in a sitting position.

For such a sofa, the ceilings must be high.

Transforming the sofa into a bed does not at all interfere with its placement in the living room. With proper zoning of the space, the furniture will fit perfectly with other interior items, even in the center of the room. Guests can be placed in different sleeping places, and during the day this is a place to relax.

Children's room

Living room

The correct distribution of zones is important here. If the living room is spacious, then it can be divided into several zones using a transformable sofa as a divider. At night it becomes a comfortable place to sleep, and during the day it becomes a pleasant place to relax. The furniture is made in a minimalist style, so special attention is paid to how it combines with other interior items.
