Why this room works.

This 13 by 12 foot living room hosts overnight guests without giving up a room to them, and it does it with the simplest wall in the gallery. The horizontal queen folds into a single ivory lacquer cabinet, 86 inches wide and 67 inches high, with soft gray side trim and gold hardware, and when the bed is up the wall looks like a low sideboard and the living room stays a living room.

There are no bookcases, no desk, and no overhead cabinet to build, so this is the fastest honest build of the five walls here and the easiest one to get square. The 60 by 80 inch queen mattress folds down to a dashed outline of 67 inches from the back wall, leaving roughly 77 inches at the foot of the bed, and the Horizontal Queen hardware kit runs about $229, which buys a guest room that appears only when it is needed.
