Modern, Mindful Alternatives to the FutonDuring a recent remodel project, we converted a portion of our unfinished attic into a small loft. We’d like to use the space for an informal office, but also have it double as a guest bedroom. At only 200 square feet, a full size bed is out of the question and because the space has a sloped ceiling, we need something low to the ground. Even though a futon would be a great solution (in theory), I keep picturing frumpy floral mattresses, awkwardly folded on a not-so-modern oak frame.
