Can you share the hardware used for this great idea?

I am a designer and would appreciate if you could share the type of hardware used for this flip down bed idea, does it lock in place or do you have a mechanical hold? It's so clever, hats off!

It was a while back when we did this project, but I believe is was a fold down piston hinge. There are legs on the beds that come out too. Hope this helps!

Have you thought about using it in the garden? Copper looks great outside and these types of mosaic sheet make great wall facings. If you have an existing wall (it needs to be rendered), or can afford/have space to have a feature wall constructed, use the copper sheets as a facing. Make sure you use exterior/swimming pool grade adhesive and grout. Plant some simple clipped shapes, or architectural forms to either side and it will look amazing.

Hi Alice, you're on the right track! The layout of your flat is quite rigid and there isn't much that can be done within reasonable effort (and price). You might also consider removing the wall to the stair and moving the first steps towards the toilet. This will further enlarge the space. Hiring a building company would of course increase the cost by 15-20% but if you don't have any experience in construction and project management, it is by far the most sensible thing to do. For a price tag, even a rough estimate, we would need quite a few more details about the existing house, furniture, finishes. I hope this helps, please let me know if you have any further questions, I will be more than happy to help. just drop me a line to service@betterspace.co or visit our website - betterspace.co Good luck!

We had a tight budget for ours and found it hard to keep with in it and not be swept away by ‘just adding this’ ideas. We have now created a project management tool to help. Check out our kickstarter https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/255431275/mypropertybuildcom?ref=user_menu

The first option seems to work better when you add furniture in? Given they'll be starting secondary school soon'ish I don't know whether a wardrobe and chest of drawers is a better option for their uniform? You can also use the bottom of the wardrobe for shoes, sports equipment etc and I'd pick a colour that blends into the wall. I personally wouldn't do 2 feature walls however use colour blocking to zone each of their spaces. Try and find a blue and yellow that work together and add a couple more complementary shades. I've added a couple of pics but there are loads online. You could do a geometric shape or border etc. Having their duvet in their colours may be an idea too. I would probably go for beanbags for seating which can go at the side of the bed when not in use. Is their room under the bed for baskets for toys? Maybe also shelves over the bedside table?
