Bed in a niche

This solution is well suited for small rooms or one-bedroom apartments, children's and those where you want to create an unusual bedroom design. You can arrange a built-in bed in a niche in various ways, depending on the location of the bed and the general style of the interior.

Niche in the wall for the bed

1. Bed in a niche with shelves. This option is most common for small one-bedroom apartments. In this case, the entire niche is used for a small bedroom. The design is a synthesis of a cabinet with shelves and a berth. In the lower part under the bed there are boxes, and the wall is simultaneously shelves (closed or open). This type of construction is good for both classic and modern urban style. Everything depends on the materials and finishes used.
2. If the length of the recess does not allow you to place more shelves, then you have to manage only the drawers from the bottom. Sometimes, to separate the sleeping space from the entire area, a four-poster bed is set in the niche. This is a good solution for apartments in the classical style, rococo or fashionable today modern.

Bed in a niche - choose a design

Drawing a niche in the wall for a bed can be in many ways. First of all, this is an excellent solution for a children's room. Under the bed, we place boxes for toys or other children's treasures. And the wall can be made in the form of a large canvas for drawing, pasted it with wallpaper with the image of your favorite cartoon characters.

If this is a room with a niche for the bed, where the whole family is going to, it's worth considering the design in the form of an alternative to the sofa. For example, try this way to decorate a niche in the living room: combine it with a closet or shelves from the wall, so it does not look like a sleeping place, but more like a cozy corner for rest.

We do not often see the design of a bed in a niche where a window is used. But for lovers to lie in bed longer, it will be a good alarm clock: you combine a niche with a window and waking up see the daylight, during the day you can read in natural light, and by the evening close the window with a roller blind.

If the bed in the niche is only partially located, methods of erecting an artificial niche are used. Instead of the wall, racks are added, the guides are hung on the ceiling and the curtains are hung. Niches today are gaining popularity, as the problem of zoning and rational use of space is being solved, and this design looks cozy and unusual.
