Wall bed - Oxfordshire

7 years ago

Live in Grade II converted house over 3 floors. Want to install good wall bed (perhaps swivel mechanism) in current dining room to dual as 3rd bedroom for guest use and older family members. The ones I have seen in UK so far are of very poor quality and majority MDF - or designed for student accommodation/small space living. Have approached bespoke manufacturers (not interested as looking for full room design project ) and individual cabinet makers/carpenters are proving too costly or challenging for them - any ideas. Wall - sufficient for 5ft width bed.

Hugely enhances the house frontage, and adds symmetry and colour balance to both garden and house, good job!

Hi, You can buy fairly firm upholstery foam, in a large enough piece for the bottom to rest on the bed. You might also want to cover it. If that's not firm enough then Kingspan (or similar) insulating foam definitely would be. Wrap it in something airtight so you don't breathe in the dust from it. I've got insulating foam wrapped in PVC wipe-clean tablecloth fabric for a footrest right now.

The Bonaldo bed comes in one piece so if you are seriously considering it you would definitely need good access! Also it does not have slats, its a platform base so some people don't find it as comfy,

I thought you might be taking a punt on a “green” country! It will be great, bet you can’t wait, just need a change in weather! Well it sounds like a great place and location and very positive re the one down the road. Have you had a nose at it?! can your desk be used as a dressing table? If so, I’d add a mirror and maybe a drum stool. Maybe some velvet curtains, not sure if these are quite long enough? A jute rug for some texture, maybe just under one bed foot. I’d also dress the bed to make it more inviting. I have a few bouquets from Shida, they’re preserved so last for up to a year (although one of mine is older than that!), ideal for letting too, just need a blast from a hairdryer every now and again. What kind of budget do you have for the bedrooms and can look at lamps etc? One of my bug bears is not being able to dry your hair in front of a mirror (it’s amazing how many hotels etc do not consider doing makeup and hair properly!) and also lack of a full length mirror somewhere in the house. Make sure there’s easy access or extending leads for charging too!
