Free Standing Murphy Bed

Lily Wright |

In spite of jokes and comedy routines, a Murphy bed is an excellent solution to having daytime living space in a restricted area such as a small apartment or Tiny House. Unfortunately, landlords are not always amenable to tenants installing a major furnishing like a murphy bed if it needs to be attached to a wall. Most of the free-standing beds are oriented horizontally, so they take up the same amount of wall space as a standard bed when it is placed lengthwise against a wall. When folded, they look like a large cabinet.

They fold out into either a twin or any standard bed size for nighttime comfort, and then fold back up allowing you to have plenty of floor space during the day.
