Older apartment buildings near downtown
Just curious about this. Many years ago...around 1970, my [[now) husband I visited his dad in an apartment building near downtown. I don't remember the name or even where it is/was. Only thing I do remember is that it had a Murphy bed that folded down from the wall. Was this common in older apartments? Are they still used today in those buildings? Do the architectural salvage places have any that were removed before demolition of buildings? I think they are neat and great space savers, but the cost of a new setup is very high.
Murphy beds in Dorm style housing.
I haven't heard of entire apartments having Murphy beds, but I was contacted by a college in Ohio about incorporate my murphy beds into their units. They had a great idea. By making the rooms slightly smaller, they could have a larger common area. To make it small they were going to use a murphy bed designs.
I build these. You can actually watch them being built on my live video feed at www.wwbeds.com
These are going to be a more modern design. When I get the design from the Interior designer, I'll post them on my Dorm page.
