A bed is just a bed, right? Not quite. Within the concept of smart furniture, these relationships are not always obvious. Previously, furniture was made for one exclusive function. A bed was a place to sleep, a table was a space for eating, and a bench was a place to sit.

However, as modern homes and apartments lose more and more space, there's a need to adapt all furniture, turning it into universal, practical, and multifunctional items. That's how the first smart furniture appeared in history. This might seem insignificant, but the appearance of such furniture reflects a new lifestyle for modern people and their way of living and using their own housing.

What is Smart Furniture?

Smart furniture is designed for use in small spaces, though it also works great in large rooms. The essence of these furniture items is to meet new societal demands: small homes and apartments. Thus, intelligent furniture, also known as multifunctional furniture, provides better space utilization without sacrificing comfort and decorative appeal.

Where there was once only one bed, today you can see a sleep furniture item that also functions as a wardrobe. In other words, smart furniture optimizes spaces that were previously unused.

All this makes modern homes more practical, functional, and comfortable by eliminating the need for many different pieces of furniture. In some cases, one piece of furniture can perform functions of up to three or four different items.

Smart Bedroom Furniture

Folding Bed

A folding bed can be 'hidden' during the day in a niche and opened at night for sleeping. It's very suitable for small apartments where the bedroom also serves as a living room. Another advantage of such beds is having a desk or countertop for a home office, which becomes visible when the bed is closed.


Bedside Cabinet

A bed-side cabinet is one of the most popular types of smart furniture. It's used for storing a lot of things.

Some models even have drawers and niches.


Headboard with Support

Why have a simple and useless headboard when it can be used to support small items? This type of furniture doesn't require bedside tables.


Wardrobe with Built-in Table

The space inside a wardrobe can be better used by applying an integrated table.


Multi-functional Shoe Shelf

Shoe shelves can be used not only for storing shoes. Modern very versatile models even work as a vanity table on top.


Double-Layer Bed with Desk and Wardrobe

A children's room usually has very limited space, but you can overcome the lack of space by choosing a double-layer bed with a desk underneath and wardrobes on either side. One wall solves the entire room.

Folding Sofa

A folding sofa is another familiar member of the smart furniture world. While in use, it remains open. When no one is sitting on it, you can close it to free up space in the room.


Sofa with Niches and Drawers

Another successful type of sofa is the model with niches and drawers. Like beds with niches, this type of sofa can solve your problem of insufficient storage space for certain items such as books, magazines, and decorative objects.

This type of sofa is also convenient when dividing space between integrated areas.


Multi-functional Bookshelf

A multi-functional bookshelf is also an excellent choice for small spaces. This type of furniture serves to display a TV, decorative and functional items of daily life but also performs the function of room division, which can be used from both sides.


Coffee Table with Drawers

Why not turn the space of a coffee table into something more functional and practical? Today, you can find variants of this furniture with niches and drawers, expanding storage capacity in your home.

Multi-functional Cabinet

Bathrooms today are another very limited space in the house. Therefore, it's crucial to value multifunctional cabinets that provide better use of space. In this sense, cabinets installed under the bathtub sink are the best option.


Mirror

Remember mirrors? They're returning to all decorative worlds. This happens because they add functionality, practicality, and beauty in one item. This small furniture piece has a mirror on the front and an integrated niche at the back activated by a tiny door (which is also a mirror). There you can store everything: toothbrush and paste, comb, hygiene products, and even basic daily makeup.
