A small bedroom is not always easy to arrange. To optimize space, without saving comfort or skipping storage, here are 10 very clever solutions to save space effortlessly.
Not always very spacious, the bedroom is a room in which there is often a lack of space. It is sometimes necessary to be cunning to arrange it comfortably, and succeed in squeezing in a sufficient number of bed and storage, without encroaching too much on the circulation space. Because it is difficult to push the walls to enlarge the room, we therefore need space-saving solutions, which make it possible tooptimize space easily. Whether it is to furnish a small bedroom, or to arrange a corner of the living room or the office to install an extra bed, there is furniture designed to respond to several issues at the same time : chest beds that also serve as storage, convertible benches that turn into a comfortable bed, compact all-in-one bed whose desk slides out to disappear during the day, headboard with a mini bookcase … These clever pieces of furniture slip easily into small spaces to avoid unnecessary nibbling on precious square centimeters.
Here are 10 solutions as ingenious as they are functional, to save space in your bedroom without sacrificing comfort or design.

The good idea: a system of drawers that transforms this single bed into a double bed. A first drawer allows the base to slide to provide a 140 cm bed. Small bonus: a second drawer slides and can be used as storage, or as an extra bed if you fit a mattress. When folded, it frees up space in the room, and can even be used as a bench. Ideal in a studio, a small office, or even in the living room to accommodate guests.

A triple function bed

The good idea: cupboard doors that slide sideways to access the storage space hidden under the bed base. Because there is not always room to pull a drawer from under the bed, this system solves the problem without encroaching on the circulation space. The headboard, on the other hand, incorporates shelving, thus acting as a mini bookcase.

Like a drawer, you just have to pull it out to reveal the tablet and enjoy an occasional nightstand. Just as easy to close, it is erased in the early morning to be able to move around the bed without hindrance.
