At first glance, the kitchen and the bedroom are two incompatible things. But life is a multifaceted thing and poses such complex and incompatible tasks for people that one is amazed. A young family lives in a one-room apartment. While there were two of them, there was enough space for everyone. But a child appears and he grows. There is no money for a new apartment, the country is in crisis, so what to do? What remains is the kitchen. The bed in it will take up a lot of space and will not add comfort. A small sofa can solve the problem. In the morning it is collected, and the room again turns into a kitchen and dining room. A small sofa in the kitchen with a sleeping place is the best option in this situation.

Bedroom for a child

When choosing, first measure the space that will allow it to unfold. Imagine where the sofa with a sleeper will fit, how much space it will take up when opened. For a child, you need to choose practical furniture that allows you to lay out every day. It must have a mechanism that works effortlessly.

Birdhouse kitchen

The choice of furniture is guided primarily by the dimensions of the room. There are also Khrushchev kitchens in the housing stock of the former Union, where there is not much more than a sofa, and there is nowhere to turn around. For such a birdhouse, we can recommend a folding chair, or. When assembled, the furniture takes up little space and does not interfere with the housewife’s homework.

Important note: you cannot hang cabinets above your sleeping area, no matter how confident you are in their strength.

Original, semicircular sofa with tables and drawers

The kitchen is small, but of optimal dimensions

The most classic version of a sofa for a kitchen with a sleeping place is a book. This is a universal, practical model that takes up little space when unfolded. For the kitchen, you should choose compact models with a seat and back width of 45-50 cm. When unfolded, it will move forward by 25-30 cm.

The second option, most suitable for a small kitchenette, is a modular sofa. During the day, the sections stand in a corner, in the evening they are moved and installed in the form of a bed. The table moves to where one half of the corner previously stood. As a result, a modular bed does not require additional space. The sections are mounted on wheels, and a child from 7-8 years old can handle it independently. The table can also be equipped with wheels to make it easier to move around the kitchen.

Guest bedroom in kitchen

Typically, the living room serves as the guest bedroom. But what to do when the living room is transformed into a bedroom for one of the family members due to cramped conditions? What remains is the kitchen. And so that unexpected guests do not take you by surprise, take care of a sleeping place for them in advance. A transforming sofa will help solve the problem. It will not be folded out very often, therefore, if the dimensions of the kitchen allow it, it is advisable to purchase a sofa that transforms into a double bed. After all, guests rarely come alone.

Roll-out sofas

Roll-out sofas require enough free space. In a spacious kitchen there are no problems with space. But in small kitchens, in order to make room for folding out the sofa, the table must also be transformable and retractable.

Classic sofa for the kitchen with a sleeping place

"Telesk op"

A roll-out sofa with a berth “Telescope” has a simple structure and a minimum of mechanisms. More precisely, there are almost no mechanisms in it. Only rollers and stops that prevent the lower part from rolling off completely. The durability of this design depends on the quality of materials and proper assembly. Even a child can handle this design, it unfolds so easily.

It is important not to rush when rolling out, and not to allow distortions. The mechanism of the roll-out sofa does not tolerate violence. If something goes wrong, it’s better to try to figure out where and what is sticking and fix the problem.

"Dolphin"

This transformer has a cute name. The “dolphin” transforming device is used on both linear and corner sofas. When extending the front part of the sofa, first its lower part, hidden inside, is pulled out, then special hinges lift the bottom and set it flush with the seats. An association arises that the sleeping place swims up from underneath, like a dolphin.

The transforming sleeping block is made on a wooden frame or on a metal one. The first is used as a guest option, the second - for daily use. in the kitchen it usually occupies one of the corners and does not interfere. , provided by the “dolphin” device, is especially convenient for small-sized kitchens.

Folding sofas

Small folding sofas, just like roll-out ones, move forward and, when folded out, form a double bed. Manufacturers have developed several different devices that allow you to place small sofas in the kitchen.

Transformable sofa - two-tier with sleeping places

Sofa bed

Among transformable sofas, folding beds stand apart. Designers in this category of furniture combined a soft sofa and a metal folding bed, which once stood in almost every home, solving the problem of living space. The folding bed, equipped with its own mattress, folds three times and hides in a spacious sofa drawer. Such furniture has a solid margin of safety and can be used every day. Therefore, if you need a small sofa for the kitchen with a sleeping place, which is supposed to be used every day, choose a folding bed. Compared to other models, the price is much higher, but the durability of the folding bed is worth it.

Among the variety of models there are double folding sofas with separate folding beds. This folding bed can be installed in the form of a corner, if one sleeping place is left open. Then you won't have to fold it every day.

"Accordion"

kitchen sofas with a berth that open like an accordion are also convenient for the kitchen. The main part of the berth is hidden in the back, closed like a book. The folded design takes up little space and is used even on corner models.

Small-sized kitchen units are sometimes made without armrests, which saves space. It includes a drawer for bed linen.

When the seat is moved forward, the backrest lowers and unfolds like the bellows of an accordion. The accordion sofa is produced with semi-soft or soft filling. It is best used as a sleeping place in the kitchen for guests. The “weak link” of the accordion is in the connection of the backs. They are connected with ordinary hinges used in small doors, or with piano hinges, and the strength of the fastening depends on the density of the wood and the quality of the screws.

Kitchen nook or traditional chairs? The answer to the question is obvious when there are additional sleeping places for guests in a house or apartment. In this case, it is best to have a dining area with a traditional table and chairs, separate for each family member.

If you regularly have guests or relatives stay overnight, you need to make sure that you can comfortably accommodate them in the kitchen.

• receiving a guest who has stayed late in the evening;
• additional sleeping space for newlyweds who have not yet acquired a large apartment;
• a place for one of the apartment residents to relax.

Of course, a small folding sofa for the kitchen is only suitable for temporary shelter, because it is small in size and has a minimum of comfort, and the presence of food smells and other kitchen aromas does not add comfort to an overnight stay.

Types of kitchen sofas

Small sofas for the kitchen with a straight-type berth are folded out using hinge mechanisms according to the folding bed principle. The design folds into a box at the bottom of the seats. This small, compact sofa is ideal for a child or teenager to sleep on.

This is especially convenient to use in a one-room apartment, where in this way you can create additional personal space for one of the residents.

A small, practical kitchen sofa will also look good in a spacious studio apartment, where it can be used to separate the kitchen space from the living room.

By transformation method

The choice of the mechanism by which the kitchen corner sofa will be folded out is important. The most common options are the dolphin (with a retractable part) and the French folding bed. Sometimes a “Eurobook” is used, but it requires more space.

A sofa with a berth using a “dolphin” mechanism has a retractable part, which, when folded, hides under the seat, and when unfolded, rolls out. This model is easy to unfold and is considered most suitable for daily use.

The advantages of such a mechanism:

• the pull-out bed turns out to be quite comfortable with a large place to rest;
• It extends and folds quite easily;
• such models are equipped with an additional drawer for things;
• The mechanism can be replaced if broken.

It is recommended to buy corner sofas of the “French folding bed” type if folding out will happen infrequently. When folded, 3 sections of such a sofa are laid out like an accordion, and when unfolded, by pulling the belt, these soft sections are straightened and placed with their legs on the floor like a folding bed. The advantage of this design is the compactness of the sofa.

Disadvantages of the French folding bed:

• the sleeping area does not have a completely flat surface;
• Before laying out, you need to remove the pillows, which is inconvenient;
• There are no drawers for things and linen.

Dimensions of kitchen corners

Ready-made sleeping sofas for the kitchen, sold in furniture stores, do not always have suitable sizes. When the kitchen is small or has a non-standard layout, then it would be optimal to make such a sofa to order according to the required dimensions. When calculating the kitchen space, you should take into account some ergonomic rules:

• the width of the seat for the sofa is not less than 60 cm;
• sleeping space dimensions for an adult - 70×170 cm.

Standard sizes offered by kitchen corner manufacturers:

• seat depth - 50-70 cm;
• length on the shorter side - 1.2-1.6 m, on the long side - 1.6-2.2 m;
• The width of the sleeping area is 0.7-1.95 m.

Rules for choosing a kitchen corner

These rules should be followed to choose a kitchen corner with a sleeping place:

1. It is necessary to take measurements of the kitchen and the free space intended for installing the corner. It is better to do this after planning and choosing a kitchen unit. It should be taken into account that the kitchen sofa and the dining table and chairs standing next to it should leave space for possible passage of a person (60-90 cm) and not interfere with the approach to the kitchen unit.

2. The kitchen corner is usually sold separately from the table and chairs, so the style and decorative finish of these items should be selected from the same manufacturer.

3. For the kitchen, you should choose durable, easy-to-clean sofa upholstery that does not have wrinkles.

4. When choosing a corner sofa, you need to take into account its orientation (left- or right-handed), so as not to be mistaken in which direction the sleeping place will be laid out; there are also universal models.

5. In standard models, the covers are usually not removable, but removable ones can be ordered.

6. When placing an order for a soft kitchen corner, you should take into account the thickness of the backrest (standard 5 cm), by which the width of the sleeping part will be reduced when laying out the sofa.

7. Side armrests and lying pillows visually make the sofa heavier, so when choosing furniture for a small kitchen, it is better to do without these details.

8. When ordering a complex or non-standard model of a sofa for the kitchen, it is better to call a professional measurer, who also brings a catalog of models and samples of upholstery fabrics. Such a specialist will help you choose the right model and take the necessary measurements.

9. You should ask the seller about hygiene certificates to confirm the safety of the purchased furniture and the materials from which it is made, and warranty obligations.
