Murphy Bed


Have you ever taken the time to look at some of the décor in your favorite movies? For instance, take a look at the décor in most of the popular Harry Potter movies. These movies are set in a world that doesn’t exist, but the design of the furniture in the film reflects not only the fantasy realm but also is a reminder of the human world that is tied to it. If you’ve got a child who loves Harry Potter, you can design a bedroom for them that won’t cost a fortune and that will be filled with furniture, such as the right type of wood bed, that can fit into their lifestyle no matter how old they get or what fad they’re into.

The Murphy Bed would fit into the Harry Potter universe beautifully. It is a wood bed that brings along a conventional look with a few unique twists. The wood bed has three matching raised panels on both the footboard and the headboard. The edges of the headboard and footboard are curved, bringing along a sense of mystery to what would otherwise have been a very staid looking bed. The bowed wood is truly unique and is not seen being done this way in many wood headboards.

The Murphy Bed is designed by the Fashion Bed Group and would be ideal for a Harry Potter themed room. Choose the color – either black or walnut, and add some other pieces that match the bed. If you’re looking to go the extra mile you can paint the bedroom in dark colors to match the design that is found in the Hogwarts dorm rooms. You could add a fireplace as well, but that may be going a bit too far, especially if you’re looking to avoid spending a fortune on children’s bedroom furniture!
