At the head or above the back of the sofa, it is recommended to place dim lights. The center of the living room-bedroom should be the area in which the guests will gather. Here you can set a dining or a buffet table, and above it hang bright lights: a festive atmosphere requires bright lighting. The workplace is more convenient to organize near the window or in the far corner of the room, to equip it with its illumination.

It is not at all necessary for a bedroom andliving room sleeping on the couch. In the far corner, you can install a bed and separate it from the main room with a cabinet, bookshelves, a canopy with photo printing.

To turn it into a bed at night, it's enough to lower the front part of the cabinet: the bed hides inside it.

Usually, the complexity of decorating the living room is that the owners do not want to spoil the interior with the view of the bed: the resting place should remain intimate.

There is another method that allows you to hidea bed from extraneous views. The bed is made retractable, and a podium is set above it. If desired, on the podium, you can put a dining table, a workplace, a playpen for a baby, etc. Important: when designing a combined room, one must maintain color and stylistic unity in all its parts.
