Why this room works.

This 13 by 11 foot den stays a den by day, with a horizontal queen bed folded into the wall behind soft gray cabinet doors. The bed sits in an 86 inch wide cabinet that stands 67 inches high and 20 inches deep, holding a 60 by 80 inch mattress on a horizontal queen hardware kit that runs about $229. A pair of 24 inch wide bookcases stands on either side of the bed, and an 18 inch overhead bridge cabinet caps the run, so the whole built-in spans 134 inches wide and rises 85 inches toward the 9 foot ceiling.

With the bed up, the room reads as a soft gray storage wall with white oak wardrobe doors and brushed brass hardware, and the shelves keep books and blankets close at hand. Lower the bed and the dashed outline on the plan reaches about 67 inches from the back wall, leaving roughly 65 inches at the foot, so the room still feels open with the queen bed down and a guest can move around it with ease.

The built-in sits on the 13-foot wall. The dashed outline extends about 67 inches from the back wall, leaving roughly 65 inches at the foot of the bed. The built-ins are finished in soft gray, white oak, and brushed brass. The 134-inch modern cabinet leaves the rest of the den open when the bed is up. 13 x 11 ft room with a 9 ft ceiling.
