Adapting to Post-Pandemic Living An Innovative Solution: The Wallbed

Published on Jul 25, 2023

The COVID-19 pandemic has triggered a seismic shift in how we live and work. 

Our homes have transformed into multi-functional spaces, serving as offices, classrooms, gyms, and relaxation zones. The transformation has prompted many to reassess their living arrangements, particularly the importance of space efficiency. As we navigate this new normal, companies like Wallbeds “n” More are playing a vital role in redefining our living spaces with innovative solutions like the wall bed.

Wallbeds “n” More, a pioneer in the wall bed industry, has been at the forefront, responding to the shifting lifestyle trends in the wake of the pandemic. 

With a surge in people now working and studying from home, the demand for wall beds – beds that fold up against a wall when not in use – has grown exponentially. 

By offering an impressive variety of designs that cater to different tastes and lifestyles, Wallbeds “n” More ensures that no matter how our lives change, our homes can adapt with us.

Stephanie Saunders, a representative from the company, elaborates on their approach.

 “Instead of a dedicated bed taking up square footage, we’re now making that dedicated bed only take up 16 by 66 inches in the Queen, therefore leaving room for a home office desk or other activities.” Such spaces could be adapted for a myriad of activities including drafting, sewing, crafting, exercising, or even meditation.

Saunders noted a sustained trend of individuals reimagining their homes and adapting to shared living spaces due to economic pressures. 

The wall bed provides a flexible, cost-effective solution for such scenarios. 

“Repurposing a room is a lot cheaper than adding on,” Saunders explained. “People are still moving in with each other, facing financial hardships.”

The company’s offerings are not confined to traditional wall beds. They provide options that serve as a desk by day and a bed by night, fitting the needs of professionals still working from home, including government workers who might not return full time to their previous offices. The variety is awe-inspiring, with everything from standard wall beds, sofa wall beds, bunk wall beds, to cabinet wall beds that mimic stylish storage units.

Regarding the practicality of their products, Saunders said, “You fold it out, it’s a bed, and then to put it away, you just make your bed and lift it up into the cabinet. We also have things where you can add side cabinets for extra storage or a closet for guests.”

Wallbeds and More also offers a unique solution called ‘the library,’ popular among customers looking for dual functionality. This model serves as a bookshelf or display unit and opens up into a bed. Saunders added, “Our products can be moved to your next home, or to a different room in your own home. We offer professional installation and have a dedicated team on board.”

The versatility of the wall bed ensures a room can fulfill multiple roles throughout the day, making every square foot count. As people continue to prioritize flexibility and adaptability in their homes, a wall bed represents an investment that can pay dividends in the future. Whether you need to convert your office back to a guest room or your kid’s study into a play area, a wall bed makes the process seamless.

It’s clear that Wallbeds “n” More has thought of everything – even offering high-quality mattresses to go with their beds, underscoring their commitment to providing a comprehensive sleep solution. Saunders concluded, “Lifestyles have significantly changed since the start of the pandemic, and Wallbeds ‘n’ More is ready to accommodate these shifts with our innovative offerings.”

In a post-pandemic world where space has become a luxury, Wallbeds “n” More is redefining how we optimize our homes, offering innovative, flexible solutions that adapt to our changing lifestyles.
