Modern wardrobes are presented in a rich assortment. Furniture designs of various modifications are on sale. Let us consider in more detail what are the distinguishing features of products of vertical and horizontal types.

Solid and spacious are modern cabinets-transformers, equipped with a vertical mechanism. Folding structures of this type are convenient to operate, but they have to allocate more free space, which can be a problem in a very small room. The berth here is laid out in length from the wall base by about 2100 mm.For this reason, free space must remain in front of the product itself. You can indent from the opposite wall, equal to 2000 mm.

The built-in bed in the described furniture design can be very comfortable and spacious. Experts recommend carefully selecting these options - their mechanisms should be as reliable, stable and safe as possible.

Very modest in size, horizontal-type designs are very popular. Here, a lifting sleeping bed will become a win-win solution for rooms of almost any quadrature. The layout also will not greatly affect the ability to place this furniture.

In addition, models of multifunctional bed cabinets are divided into such subspecies.

• Withdrawable. A very convenient and comfortable solution for those who do not like the vertical location of the bed for sleeping in the daytime. Such products occupy a minimum of free space when they are folded.
• Folding. These structures stand upright thanks to a special mechanism. They are laid out by pulling down the top edge. Folding products are larger in size. When folded together with the mattress can only be a frame part.
• Swing-out. These models contain a more complete cabinet with shelves, which do not need to be released before the start of transformation. To disassemble the indicated structure, it is necessary to make a preliminary rotation of the structure by 180 degrees, so that the wardrobe and bed are swapped.
• Combined. The most expensive and functional products. In their design, in addition to the wardrobe, bed and sofa, a table can be added.

In the production of different models of 3-in-1 wardrobe-beds, various materials are used. This factor affects the total cost of furniture construction. We will figure out what the fillers and upholstery of these structures are made of.

When choosing the perfect wardrobe, sofa, it is important to pay attention to the filling material. The quality of the filler determines how comfortable the bed for sleeping in the design will be. Cheap and low-quality filling materials not only can be completely uncomfortable, but also undergo rapid deformation, loss of shape.

The following fillers are recognized as the most popular.

• Polyurethane foam (or PPU). In transformable or built-in furniture, this filler is most common. This material is characterized by a long service life, is relatively inexpensive, but is relatively tough.

• Spring unit with dependent springs. This filler is also found in transformable furniture designs. He shows himself very comfortable in operating matters, but, unfortunately, is not very reliable, especially in comparison with polyurethane foam. After 7-10 years, the springs will begin to burst and break out due to their own wear, spoiling the upholstery.

• Spring unit with independent springs. The specified filler is soft, durable and comfortable. But its use in the manufacture of furniture such as a transformer is undesirable - being in an upright position, the springs lose contact with each other, because of which the sofa runs the risk of sinking in one direction.

The upholstery material of the selected furniture also plays an important role. This parameter affects not only the practicality of the products, but also on their appearance. A good and beautiful upholstery can make even the simplest wardrobe-sofa with a built-in berth more spectacular and enjoyable.

Suitable types of upholstery.

• Genuine Leather. This upholstery is the most expensive, but its appearance is consistent with the cost. This material serves for a long time, is not subject to damage or loss of presentation.

• Faux leather. Leatherette is cheaper than natural material, and by its external characteristics it can be difficult to distinguish from it.

• Eco leather. Modern and highly sought after material. It is cheaper than genuine leather, but is thinner.

• Tapestry. Such upholstery will be a win-win option if the furniture is selected for the interior in an expensive, luxurious manner.

• Velours. Practical upholstery material. It has a soft surface, easy to clean if necessary, without losing any color brightness or texture quality.

• Flock. A practical and popular material for upholstery of upholstered furniture. It is waterproof, durable, has a pleasant soft structure.

• Jacquard. Another practical and durable material used for upholstery of upholstered furniture. It is soft and hygienic, presented in a wide range. Fabric design can be very different. Jacquard has a uniform structure, which guarantees a long service life.

In the furniture stores you can find different models of transformable wardrobes, sofas, beds, which have different sizes. So, most of the products manufactured today have the following parameters (unfolded):

• width - from 115 to 160 cm;
• length - from 180 to 220 cm.

For small rooms, the area of ​​which does not exceed 7-9 square meters. m, a wardrobe with dimensions of 180x120 cm will be enough. If we are talking about a more spacious quadrature, then you can find a product of 180x150 cm and more. The beds themselves can be single, one and half or double.

Practical 3-in-1 furniture should not only be functional, but also attractive. The design should be selected in accordance with the style of the interior in which you want to place it.

• High tech. In this modern style, the transformable furniture looks particularly organic. The high-tech furniture design will have a strict design with the presence of restrained geometric shapes and lines. Carved elements will be superfluous. Products with metal, plastic, leather or glass elements will look bright and stylish.

• Minimalism. Modern fashion direction. For such interiors, you should choose transforming furniture of strict design. Products should not have bright prints and lush decorations.

Transformable furniture should also match the color of the environment. Both the transformer and decoration should not be made in absolutely identical shades - in this case, the interior will merge, and it will be difficult to be in it. A wardrobe bed should be at least a couple of tones different from the finish and other details of the decor.
