The StudyBed
For many people, working from home means losing the spare bedroom, which in turn creates a huge problem when guests come to stay. Now there is an ingenious solution that allows you to use your spare room as both an office and guest bedroom without sacrificing either function.
It is called The StudyBed, and it combines a standard normal bed with a huge desk. Because the clever mechanism allows everything to remain on the bed and on the desk, it takes just 3 seconds to convert from one mode to the other. It is available in all mattress sizes, a wide choice of finishes and many options on matching furniture.
