Why this room works.

A 13 by 12 foot living room should never look like a bedroom, and this one does not until a guest stays over. The horizontal full bed folds out of a single cabinet 81 inches wide, 61 inches high and 20 inches deep, holding a 54 by 75 inch mattress on a horizontal full hardware kit that runs about $209. There are no bookcases and no overhead here, so the wall stays a simple creamy white Shaker panel with natural oak accents and oil-rubbed bronze hardware, low enough to hang art above it.

By day the room is all living room, with the full 13 by 12 foot floor open for seating and a rug. At night the bed lowers and the dashed outline on the plan reaches about 61 inches from the back wall, leaving roughly 83 inches at the foot, which is more open floor than most guest rooms offer and plenty of room to walk around the bed in the morning.

The built-in sits on the 13-foot wall. The dashed outline extends about 61 inches from the back wall, leaving roughly 83 inches at the foot of the bed. The built-ins are finished in creamy white, natural oak, and oil-rubbed bronze. 13 x 12 ft room with a 8 ft ceiling.
