Why this room works.

This 13 by 12 foot living room gives overnight guests a real king bed without giving up the living room. The vertical king cabinet measures 82 inches wide, 87 inches high, and 20 inches deep, holding a 76 by 80 inch mattress on a vertical king hardware kit that runs about $269. Natural pine slab-front doors with warm brown trim and black iron handles keep the tall cabinet looking like a built-in wall, and the 9 foot ceiling leaves room above it to breathe.

Lower the bed and the dashed outline on the plan reaches about 87 inches from the back wall, leaving roughly 57 inches at the foot, which is enough space to walk past the king bed and make it in the morning. By day the room is a living room again, with a door on the right wall and a window on the left wall bringing in daylight, and by night it sleeps two guests properly, with no fold-out couch in sight.

The built-in sits on the 13-foot wall. The dashed outline extends about 87 inches from the back wall, leaving roughly 57 inches at the foot of the bed. The built-ins are finished in natural pine, warm brown, and black iron. The 82-inch rustic cabinet leaves the rest of the living room open when the bed is up. 13 x 12 ft room with a 9 ft ceiling.
