We're wrapping up our bedroom coverage this week and next week we'll start digging in on small space posts. As a bridge between the two subjects, we're looking at our favorite stores for essentials with creating a bedroom in a small space – daybeds, futons and sleeper sofas. Whether you're trying to carve a boudoir out of a studio or set up a guest room for the mother-in-law, check out these retailers for small space sleeping solutions. More

It's always fun for friends and family to stay over and spend the night, but it's difficult to have a dedicated guest bedroom for just those few times a year, especially for those of us in small city apartments. That's why we love how the sleeper sofa can instantly transform a living room or office into a guest bedroom. Check out some favorite sleeper sofas that are the perfect combination of form and function. More

Bigfoot. The Loch Ness Monster. Chupacabra. While these creatures have long been rumored to exist, we don't have any hard evidence that they are actually out there. Another elusive near-mythical entity is a sleeper sofa bed that is actually comfortable to sleep on. Amazingly, in this case, our readers have reported not only having seen them but capturing them and living with them in their very own homes!

Oh, to have a guest room! Instead, many of us have an office, a studio, a nursery or another dedicated space in our homes (if we're lucky enough to have the extra square footage, that is). Unless you're blessed with huge rooms, chances are a full-size bed or even a standard sleeper sofa wouldn't fit in an already defined space like an office. That's where the daybed comes in! More

Round beds first appeared on the residential market in 1968 with Luigi Massoni's rotating Lullaby bed for Poltrona Frau (the updated version is shown above). Today, there are more round beds on the market than one would suspect — and even a handful of online sources for elusive round bedding! The selection varies widely: from super high end rotating beds to custom platform beds and mattresses. Here are the best round beds, round mattresses and round sleeper sofas I could find: More

This month we're focusing on one of the most important spots in the home, the bedroom. It's a room that is key to comfort and health, yet not everyone has the luxury of living in a home with a separate one. For all the studio dwellers out there (as well as those hosts without a guest room) here's a deep dive into our intel on the versatile piece that allows you to create a bedroom in a minute — the sleeper sofa: More

Beautiful Beds! Italian bed and sofa sleeper company Noctis wowed me with their simple and (often) colorful beds — I was drawn to the beech one pictured above. Its simple lines and colorful fabric headboard (which looks super-easy to update/replace when you're ready for a change). More

The Sliding Sofa has been part of the DWR lineup for as long as I can remember — I'm fairly certain it was in their first catalog (before they had an online presence!). The design is very straightforward and utilitarian — which translates to a sleeper where the transition process is intuitive. More

The Havana is a true lounging sofa — it is long, low and comfortable. This is a convertible sofa that one would never suspect. It's remarkably easy to manipulate and transition from sofa to bed and the independent oversized pillows add a relaxed vibe to the super-sleek aesthetic. More
