Multipurpose spaces can be hard to decorate, whether it’s on the smaller side or part of a large open-plan design. That makes finding the best sofa bed to buy for your multifunctional room is a big task.
To help, we’ve created a list of our top eight sofa beds, each one transitioning from day to night smoothly.
Sofa Beds with Thick Mattress
If your guest room also doubles as a living space, then a sofa bed is a versatile addition. However, finding sofa beds that are comfortable for both sitting and sleeping can be hard. Often, they’re either too hard when seated or don’t offer enough support when sleeping.
For guests to have a great sleep, then a sofa bed with a thick mattress is essential. Plus, an ergonomic design and premium padding make sure it’s also comfy when you’re sitting down. We reckon we’ve hit the nail on the head with the Pillow 3-Seater Sofa Bed.
The Pillow Sofa Bed is perfect for everyday use whilst still offering comfort for your guests. That’s thanks to its pocket-sprung mattress. Pocket springs are the ultimate addition to a mattress as they mould to your body. This offers support and stops you rolling into your partner. It’s so comfy your guests won’t even realise they’re sleeping on a sofa bed.
When seated, the Pillow Sofa Bed’s feather-filled back cushions mean it’s easy to sink into and unwind. And since the cushions double as the headboard, they improve your night-time comfort too. Plus, it couldn’t be easier to take out and put away. Pillow features a 2-fold Cedaflex mechanism that means it folds out in a matter of seconds.
Our Favourite Sofa Bed with Arms
If you’re hunting for an elegant sofa bed with arms and comfortable cushions, then look no further than the Cane Sofa Bed. This Art Deco-inspired design is perfect for multifunctional spaces as it’s compact with plenty of design kudos. Its cane accents, metal legs and solid elmwood armrests mean it’ll be at home in a design-forward space.
It’s incredibly comfortable thanks to the individual pocket springs in the cushions and base. Additional feather padding in the cushions make for an even deeper night’s sleep. Plus, the sofa bed’s foam casing means it’s breathable throughout the night, so no overheating. It’s also remarkably simple to transform the Cane Sofa into a double bed. All you need to do is slide out the seat, unfold the metal legs and lay down the backrest. Voila. Your sofa bed is now ready for a comfortable night’s sleep.
The Sofa bed for Small Spaces
It can be hard to find a sofa bed to fit a small room. After all, a sofa bed that’s stylish, comfortable and compact is a hard-to-find combination. Luckily, we reckon the Multy Sofa Bed fits the brief perfectly.
A simple but effortlessly stylish sofa bed, Multy’s folded design has multiple configurations to suit your small multipurpose space. Its adjustable steel frame and folded cushioning mean it’s incredibly comfortable for sleeping on, as well as sitting.
The sofa bed’s two lumbar cushions are ideal for support when seated or for resting your head on at night. The sofa’s cover even unzips to become a duvet, so it’s ready to use as soon as it’s been unfolded.
So, if you’re trying to squeeze a sofa bed into a small study or box room, then look no further than the Multy Sofa Bed from Ligne Roset.
A Sofa Bed to Sleep on Every Night
Life in a studio apartment or a small bedroom that doubles as an office or living area can get cramped. Finding a sofa bed for your multipurpose space could be the answer to all your prayers.
Nowadays, sofa beds have improved massively and sleeping on one needn’t feel like sleeping on a bag of rocks. Plus, if you’re sleeping on your sofa bed nightly, then it’s even more crucial that it’s comfortable.
We love the Oswald Sofa Bed because it’s so easy to use and incredibly comfortable. Simply pull the leather tab at the front and fold the backrest forward. Even its legs automatically fold out, so there’s no fumbling around for them. There’s even concealed storage in this sofa bed to store the cushions when not in use.
The best part? The Oswald Sofa Bed is incredibly comfortable. It has individual pocket springs to help offer even pressure whether you’re sitting or sleeping. Layers of hyper-soft foam add extra comfort and make sure the mattress is breathable all night long. So, if you need a sofa bed to sleep on every night, the Oswald Sofa Bed may be the ultimate choice.
The Sofa Bed for Design Lovers
Looking for a little extra sleeping space but don’t want to compromise on your Scandinavian aesthetic? Enter the Level Daybed from Woud.
This elegant day bed isn’t your typical sofa bed. Its streamlined, crisp design make it perfect for modern, pared-back spaces. A solid oak frame with statement-making legs supports a leather-upholstered mattress that’s topped with an optional co-ordinating leather cushion. You can configure the Level Day Bed to make sure it really suits your space. Whether that’s a black wood base and tan leather, or an all-black look, the world’s your oyster.
To transform it into a sofa bed, simply add bedding. It couldn’t be easier, no mechanisms or folding needed with this design.
A Stylish Corner Sofa Bed
If you’re always hosting friends, family or big sleepovers, then you probably need sleeping space in most rooms. That means every room from your living room to your hallway is ripe for multifunctional furniture. If your living room is large enough then we fully recommend choosing a stylish corner sofa bed.
If we had to pick, we’d go for the Pillow Corner Chaise Sofa Bed. Not only is it perfect for seating the whole family, but it offers that all-important sleeping space too. And it’s not just any place to rest your head either. The Pillow Corner Sofa Bed features a pocket-sprung mattress to offer extra support for your guests.
Its feather-filled back cushions mean you’ll sink into them when seated and double as a headboard when sleeping. So, you won’t compromise on comfort in the day or at night. Did we mention how easy it is to unfold?
The Pillow Sofa Bed boasts 2-fold Cedaflex technology. This means it’s incredibly easy to fold out and just as easy to put away the next day. Perfect for busy homes.
The Perfect Sofa Bed for a Home Office or Study
If your multifunctional space also doubles as a home office, then the Thora Sofa Bed could be the ultimate addition. Streamlined, compact and stylish, Thora would look right at home in any study.
The modern sofa bed draws inspiration from Nordic design. Its crisp lines and minimalist silhouette will bring a Scandinavian touch to the office. Its plump back cushions mean the sofa bed is comfy to sit on between meetings and easy on the eye.
Plus, it features an ingenious sliding mechanism that means it couldn’t be easier to transform into a double sofa bed. The base itself offers support for any guests thanks to its integrated pocket springs and high-density foam. Good night’s sleep? Check.
A Modern Leather Sofa Bed
A leather sofa bed is a timeless addition when it comes to multipurpose spaces. Not only do they look good, but their elegant design means they’ll look great in most spaces. We love the 40 Winks Sofa Bed because its design borrows from the classic Chesterfield Sofa, with even more functionality.
Its classic leather upholstery, deep button detailing and creased folds are reminiscent of the classic Chesterfield Sofa. But we’ve bought it into the modern day. The turned wood legs keep the sofa bed’s vintage feel, whilst the slick steel frame lends it a contemporary flourish.
The back has three adjustment levels, meaning you can adjust it to both recline or sleep on. In large multifunctional spaces, you could even leave it folded down as a daybed.

Trends & Lifestyle
When renovating a home, it can be difficult at times to see how everything will piece together in amongst the dust and destruction. But when you start to see your vision come to life, well, there’s no better feeling.
Interiors influencer Liv Likosso (@renovating_cheznous) and her partner Rob collaborated with designer Nicola Meighan from the Heal’s Interior Planning Service, to bring their scandi rustic dining room to life. We caught up with Nicola and Liv to find out all about the design process, the key pieces and how to get the look of this calm yet captivating set up.
Nicola, let’s start at the very beginning. We’d love to get some design expert insight. How do you approach a full room design? What’s your process?
N: There are many different processes depending on each project. For this one, it was important that the look and feel of it complimented the living room and kitchen as they are run off each other being open plan.
Secondly, how Liv and Rob wanted to use this space. For them, it was a relaxed dining room where they could enjoy a space with family and friends. There was lots of natural light in the room, so I wanted to make sure it didn’t lose that. From here, I was able to create mood boards to show the look and feel of the room, followed by floor plans and a selection of fabrics, and finishes that work with each piece based on our intended style moving forward.
Liv, Tell us about your renovation story. When did it start and how have you found the process so far?
L: We purchased our London flat over a year ago, it took us a while to initially start renovating as we had to sort out planning permission etc. Renovating our flat has been an experience I’m sure we will never forget. It’s an ex-council flat which had not been touched since the 80s. There have been times where it’s been incredibly overwhelming but also very rewarding when we look back to see how far we’ve come.
I’m still in denial sometimes, I find it hard to believe it’s still the same flat as we had to completely gut the place to get it to the stage it’s in now. We’ve also been doing the majority of things on our own, we’ve saved a lot of money this way and we’ve also learnt so much on the job, now we are already talking about another renovation project (I know we must be crazy!)
How would you describe your style? And how have you found the balance between your style and your partners?
L: I always struggle to describe my style, I tend to just go with the flow. If I was to try and describe it I would probably say my style is a mix of contemporary, boho and Scandi rustic, I say rustic because I do like to add antique pieces here and there while taking a minimalistic approach.
Rob style is more quirky, he really likes dark colours, original features and I think our styles work perfectly together, I think we have definitely found the perfect balance in both our styles which is very evident in our dining room, we were able to add a mixture of dark colours and textures without the room looking overwhelming (while keeping a modern, airy feel)
Nicola, how did you find the balance between the two different styles?
N: It was very simple actually. I took the pieces that Liv and Rob loved and used them as a base point to add complimentary pieces. I made a conscious decision to mix different textures, shapes and finishes that would balance it out and add softness to the room.
And Liv, how did you find it when working with our IPS team? Is there anything in particular that you found helpful when designing your space?
L: The experience was amazing; Nicola really took her time to hear us out. The exchange of mood boards I found was really helpful when designing our space. She sent us three mood boards and we were able to nail it down to one which was so useful. Nicola turned our vision into reality and was able to marry both Rob and my vision and style which we initially found hard to do, and I just loved how she always had time for us.
Nicola, were there any key pieces that stood out to you that you knew would be perfect for the space?
N: The wishbone chairs. Visually, they were exactly what was needed around a solid wooden dining table that had a chunky base. The table needed something light to flow otherwise this space would have been very top heavy. The elegance and soft curves were perfect for the Scandinavian feel we wanted to achieve.
How would you describe the finished space?
N: Contemporary craft with a Scandinavian influence.
And Liv, how would you describe the finished space?
L: Exceeded our expectations for sure, it’s everything we wanted and more. Seeing all the products in situ was just the icing on the cake - I couldn’t believe it was our dining room, for ages we’ve been so used to our home being a building site and now it feels and looks really homely.
Now, we know no one likes playing favourites, but if you were to choose what’s your favourite piece?
L: This is a very hard question, please forgive me for picking out two items but it's definitely the Lisbon dining table we got the blonde oiled oak not filled, we have a thing for textures and I feel like it complements the room so well. Another favourite is the handcrafted wooden steam-bent pendant light, we are both really big fans of Tom Raffield, so it's such a privilege to have it in our home.
Finally, Nicola, what advice would you have for someone who is looking to get the look of Liv’s dining room?
N: Don’t overthink the scheme. This look and feel lends itself to a balance of materials and shapes. Stick with a core selection of colours and finishes and use them in the different pieces you need for the room. Working with a neutral palette allows for you to add more shapes and styles without making it look or feel too busy, regardless of the size.

Lars Bedside Table & Hebe Table Lamp
Over the past year, each corner of our homes has been required to adapt to our new way of living, with many having to take on a new working from home lifestyle. With constant access to work, emails and social media, it’s proving to be more and more difficult to switch off and shut down completely, meaning the struggle to sleep soundly is real. So today, we’re sharing 5 ways to reclaim your sleep.
Creating a sanctuary to sleep in
Lars Wardrobe Cashmere, Handwoven Basket and Cordoba Rug
One of the most important parts of creating a home is for it to be a space for you to feel like you can completely unwind. A place you can relax and escape the noise from the outside world – your own sanctuary. Colour is known to play a huge role in helping to boost our mood and general wellbeing; subtle, neutral tones – often colours inspired by the natural world – are perfect for creating balance and harmony.
Adding texture through rugs and accessories will help to make the space feel cosy, but our favourite way to create a sense of calm is through lighting. There’s no better way to add that all important ambience.
Tidy space, tidy mind
Reveal Desk, Neo Chair and Vilia Rug
Our recent survey has revealed that 46% of those who have been working from home have needed to create an office space in their bedrooms. With the lines between work and home being blurred, it’s no surprise that our ability to feel rested has been impacted. But while space may be limited, there are still ways to help us switch off.
At the end of the working day, take five minutes to pack away the papers, put your laptop or computer out of sight (if possible), making sure your sides are free of clutter and that everything in the room has been returned to its rightful home. Anything that helps you to reclaim your space.
Going screen-free
Marano Drawer Chest, Marano Bedside Table, Matera Bed
It’s no secret that screens have a huge impact on sleep, and yet we still can’t resist a good scroll. Take a few simple steps to try and limit screen time before bed, such as putting your phone in another room while you sleep, using apps to limit screen time and switching on ‘do not disturb’, to name but a few.
If you feel that you still need time to unwind, try reading a book or listening to a podcast instead. You’ll be surprised how rejuvenated you feel after an evening free from screens.
Soothing scents
Aroma Genie Ceramic Electric Diffuser
The scent is one of our favourite ways to create a calming atmosphere. Whether it’s lighting a candle or filling your diffuser with essential oils, scent can have a big impact on how space feels. For example, you can have a section of your day through the use of scent, with one fragrance that you use when you’re working, and another that you use only at night to help you strengthen that boundary between work and home life.
Comfort is key
Stripe Duvet Cover, Cabana Stripe Cushion and Candy Stripe Cushion
Last, but by no means least, is bedding. When it comes to getting a good night’s sleep, comfort is key. Investing in a quality mattress, duvet and pillows is the first step to ensuring you’re sleeping as soundly as possible.
Layer lovely linens to help you to transform your bed into a space that’s almost too good to leave. After all, there’s nothing more appealing than the thought of crawling into a cosy, comfy bed after a long day.
Today is National Pet Day and to celebrate, we’re sharing some of our favourite shots of your pets looking pretty perfect in your Heal’s homes.

Marano Chest of Drawers and Bedside Table
In a year like no other and with the roadmap out of lockdown in place, we’re taking time to reflect on what we have learnt throughout this experience, and how it has made us look at our homes. One thing we know for certain, creating a sanctuary within our homes where we can escape the noise from the outside world has become of utmost importance. Just as our way of living has shifted, so too has the meaning of ‘home’.
Our latest research has revealed that those who have been working from home can’t wait to reclaim their homes, with a renewed focus on spaces that bring us joy and comfort through every moment of the day and our relationship with where we live changed forever. We have learnt that of those surveyed, only one in five (17%) are happy to stay working from their home full time.
Flexi Living
Flette Desk
Reveal Desk
From dining room office to balcony retreats, every corner of the home has been required to adapt to our new way of living, meaning the demand for form with function is going nowhere. The last 12 months have seen people scramble to turn their homes into offices and classrooms, with more than a third of the UK population still remote working.
Currently the lines between work and home are more blurred than ever and, as a result, 41% of people feel that the design and functionality of their home has become more important than ever. From spare bedrooms being turned into home offices (46%), dining room tables doubling up as desks (18%), kitchen stools becoming work chairs (12%) or even giving up part of their living rooms (30%), we’ve had to quickly adapt to working from home life.
And while this seismic shift of our working lives has led to many yearning for a more flexible lifestyle, it’s clear that the nation is desperate to reclaim their homes in hope of creating more of a work/ life balance.
Investing in the icons
Lars king Bed, Lars Bedside Table and Hebe Small Table Lamp
Customers have shown a renewed understanding of what great design means to them and the impact it can have on every day lives. For many, it’s also been an opportunity to invest in special, wish list pieces that they have long coveted.
With a clear move away from fast-furniture, throwaway products and trend-led designs, we’re seeing customers become ever more discerning over what they choose to bring into their homes.
Spending more time at home has encouraged Brits to splurge on where they live, with redecorating (32%) and updating outdoor spaces (22%) the top choices for people looking to invest in their homes.
Lockdown has also shaped our interior choices, with 41% now opting for calming, neutral colours. Comfort has proven to be a key factor, with half of respondents stating that creating a sense of relaxation at home now takes priority, while only a quarter focused on how it looks.
Nelly Hall, Brand Director for M&L Paints said: "We have seen an increase in people choosing soothing, neutral paint shades to reclaim their homes as a calming environment. Colour is known to play a huge role in helping to boost our mood and general wellbeing; subtle, neutral tones – often colours inspired by the natural world – are perfect for creating balance and harmony."
Touch of luxury
Geo LED Ceiling Pendant Gold and Crawford Dining Table
After spending so much time at home this year, we’ve noticed how customers have put a lot more care and attention into creating spaces that are comforting, timeless and a true reflection of their personality. From up-cycling, to investing in longer lasting products, 36% believe the time spent indoors has influenced their interior choices, and will continue to do so in the future. Highlighting how important where we live has become for our mental health, nearly one in two (48%) of respondents said that home was where they felt happiest, and four in ten felt that their outdoor spaces had given them a sense of escape.
Petra Dining Table
Interior journalist and author, Kate Watson-Smyth said: “The research from Heals has shown what a huge impact the long lockdown has had on the nation and how this time inside has forced our homes to evolve at a rapid pace. “The survey has highlighted that where we live is a vehicle for our sense of wellbeing, it’s where we feel happiest and it’s no surprise that one in four of those asked are seeking to create a sense of sanctuary at home."
“There’s no doubt that it’s been a huge challenge to pull this off when we’ve been living, working and home-schooling all in the same space, but with flexible working looking set to continue, it’s so important that we seek ways to create zoned areas, so that we can re-introduce those boundaries that many reported feeling they had lost."
“Now is the time to reclaim some of those lost spaces in the home and consider investing in a proper work area and good storage that will enable us to make the most of this new, flexible way of living.”
Tortona 4 Seater Sofa and Hebe Medium Table Lamp
Sabina Miller, Head of Buying at Heal’s said: “The survey results really demonstrate just how important our homes have become to us over the last 12 months. People are investing more, taking a more considered approach to what they choose to fill their homes with and are now prioritising how their spaces make them feel, rather than focusing on aesthetics."
“There’s been such a change to the way we live, and we’re seeing that reflected by our customers too. It goes without saying that we’ve seen a significant increase in sales for home working solutions, but we’ve also seen people choosing to invest in special, wish-list pieces that they’ve coveted for years."
“The last 12 months appears to have accelerated the move away from fast-furniture and focusing solely on trends, to people being more considered about what they are bringing into their homes. People are choosing to invest in designs that will stand the test of time and help them to create that sense of sanctuary at home.”

The Iconic Investments Index
Interior design trends may come and go, but some timeless pieces are more than a phase.
Your home should be a treasure trove of pieces that bring in joy and make your space yours - but what if some of your furniture was considered actual treasure?
From vintage classics to up and coming designs, we’ve tracked the data behind the trends to find which furniture to invest in now that will pay off later. As well as affordable classics, we have also looked into the glamorous world of big-ticket antiques and the latest furniture phases that will garner a return on your purchase.
Vintage or well-made furniture is not only a fashion statement but a statement for sustainability. We have looked at the carbon footprint of ‘fast’ furniture and how preloved items can help the planet. Did you know that the carbon emissions from the manufacture of the average sofa are the equivalent of 11,478 smartphones being fully charged?
Whether you’re looking for an item to cherish forever, an investment piece to bring you profit or just want to take in some beautifully designed furniture then read on.
The Most Iconic Furniture Pieces to Invest In
If you’re looking for a stylish investment piece that will bring you joy and maybe a bit of cash when the time comes to sell, we have found the furniture for you. By analysing sales prices and popularity over the last five years, these are the pieces that will be not only a win aesthetically but might also reward you for your investment.
The Wishbone Chair from Hans Wegner tops that chart. Originally launched in 1949, this design has truly stood the test of time. With an average resale value of £780.50 and a 200% increase in popularity this beautiful chair is a stylish addition to any home, but sit on this purchase and find bigger profits when the time comes.
With ten pieces on the list, the 1960s have the most mentions. From the instantly recognisable Stacking Chair from Verner Panton to the timeless Arco Lamp by Flos, mid-century styles reign supreme. Many of the items on the list wouldn’t look out of place in a modern furniture catalogue, and the appeal of enduring design can be epitomised by these pieces.
Endurability is key when it comes to selecting investment pieces. This design quality ensures that furniture catches a buyer’s eye but also grows on you in time.
The World's Most Expensive Antiques
After taking a look at some more modest investments, we dug through the archives to find the showstopper sales which brought in the biggest amounts.
These aren't your average furniture pieces while some aren’t for the faint of heart. Rich in design history, many of these items are accompanied by a story.
At first glance, Charles Ray’s ‘Table’ may seem simple but this is a piece of modern art, representing the conundrum of illusion versus reality. The vessels are bottomless and affixed to the tabletop allowing the viewer to see through ordinarily solid items. Critics celebrated the piece when it was released in 1959. It was subsequently sold for over £3 million in 2011.
Also featured on our list is the provocative table from Allen Jones, described as an ‘icon of Pop’ and, by way of contrast, a more simple design of a 17th-century folding chair which sold for over £67,000. This shows how some items gain value by becoming infamous, whereas others earn their price tag from skilled craftsmanship that lasts for centuries.
The Future Furniture Classics
Now we have seen the classics of years gone by, it’s time to look to the future. By tracking global Google search trends and Instagram data, we have calculated the popularity increase and predicted the items from more recent times that are growing in interest.
Many of the pieces feature effortless chic design and come in earthy, neutral tones which complement any passing trends.
The list features some more quirky designs: The QEEBOO Rabbit Chair brings a touch of modern and classy kitsch to any room, while the Anissa Kermiche Love Handles vase offers a modern callback to nude renaissance sculptures of the past.
The Carbon Cost of ‘Fast’ Furniture
We’ve all heard the old adage of ‘buy cheap, buy twice’ but budget furniture might not only cost you financially, but it might also cost the environment.
While ‘fast fashion’ has come under the spotlight recently, ‘fast’ furniture also has a carbon cost associated with its manufacture. As we marvel at the beautiful designs of the last hundred years carbon emissions might not be the first thing you consider. Investing in vintage pieces, well-made furniture or second-hand effects is a great way to be sustainable.
A sofa is normally a big purchase, but it can also come with a big carbon cost, largely down to the foam and stuffing inside it. The longer you use it the more you ‘offset’ its carbon footprint. So it pays to buy items that are better made and have a more timeless design.
Similarly, choosing wisely when selecting big-ticket items for your home is essential. By picking something well made that you will love and cherish ensures it’s not heading to the landfill site within a couple of years. Not only is investing in vintage or well-made furniture an investment in your future fortunes, but it is an investment in the future of the planet too.
Methodology:
To work out the top 27 iconic investments, we used a seed list of furniture originally sold from 1800 to 1990. To this seed list, we analysed sale prices from the last five years, along with the number of Google searches, the most popular country for sales and Google Trend data from 2015 - 2020. Most expensive antiques came from Christie’s most valuable listed sales. While modern classics were judged on:
Current RRP
Instagram popularity data
Google search volume
Google Trend data over the past 12 months
Using carbon emissions data from the FIRA Carbon Footprint of Furniture report, we assessed the CO2KG of the most popular furniture purchases. By using this research, we were able to calculate the number of owners a piece would need to reduce its carbon footprint.
