Modern Murphy Bed

If you love to host friends and family on the weekends, don't let your lack of square footage get in the way. A Murphy bed is a simple solution to small-space dilemmas. In this guest bedroom/study, the custom cabinetry slides open and transforms from a wall-to-wall bookcase into a temporary bed for the occasional visitor. When the guest leaves, simply fold the bed back into the wall to reveal the bookshelf again. Design by Andreas Charalambous
