1. Why does the bedroom become the living room in small homes?
In studios and small apartments:
- there is only one main room
- the bedroom is visible all day
- there is no clear separation between uses
- the bed occupies the central space
The bedroom must also fulfill the role of the living room, whether desired or not.
2. Why doesn’t a “classic” bedroom work as a living room?
A room designed solely for sleeping poses several limitations during the day:
- the flat bed gives a constant impression of rest
- there’s no real comfortable sitting position
- the space lacks structure
- the room seems disorganized or temporary
Without adaptation, the bedroom never really transforms into a living space.
3. What defines a living room, even in a small space?
A living room, even minimal, offers:
- a comfortable sitting position
- a backrest or support for the back
- an orientation towards a screen, a book, or guests
- a sense of “daytime,” not sleep
These functions need to be recreated, not necessarily the furniture.
4. How can the bed become the central element of the day living room?
By slightly raising the head of the bed:
- the posture changes immediately
- the bed becomes a bench
- the space appears more structured
- the room shifts to “daytime” mode
- it becomes pleasant to sit there for a long time
The simple change in inclination is enough to transform the use.

6. How to organize the day in a small bedroom-living room?
Many people use this simple logic:
- morning: bed slightly inclined for reading, working, or having coffee
- daytime: bed used as a bench or sofa
- evening: semi-seated position for relaxation
- night: bed completely flat
The room changes function without changing setup.
7. What angle is ideal for a bedroom used as a living room?
An angle between 10 and 20 degrees is perfect for:
- sitting comfortably
- supporting the back
- avoiding slipping
- creating a real living room feel
It’s a versatile angle, suitable for daily use.
