Intro Welcome to Minimal 1, a podcast about minimalism and simplicity. My name is Simon, and today, we’re going to only have a bed when we need one. Let’s go!
Main When you think of a small traditional home, you think of a living room, a kitchen, a bathroom, and a bedroom. But how much time do you spend in each room on a typical day? If you include the time when you’re sleeping, the bedroom is probably the most used room while you’re home. But if you only look at the time when you’re awake, a bedroom is likely the least used room. So is there a way to not need a bedroom, but still have a bed to sleep on? Yes, there is. The answer, is a wall bed, also known as a Murphy bed. A wall bed folds up against the wall so that a living room can instantly become a bedroom when needed. This nifty space saving technique makes it possible to comfortably live in a smaller space, such as a studio apartment, which can save you a lot of money.
Question of the day Would you consider a wall bed?
