Multifunctional furniture
The sofa turns…
Sofas that can turn into beds in the blink of an eye are known to everyone. This piece of furniture will help you out if you need to accommodate a guest at night, and will become a full-fledged place to sleep in a small room.

Depending on the model, the sofa can open like a book or have an opening mechanism. Often among Italian sofas you can find unusual models without fittings, modular and bunk structures.
An armchair can also transform into a kind of bed, like some models in the Lago catalogue.

Sofas and beds can be combined with storage systems, lighting and even a stand for cold drinks.

Some modular sofas, consisting of separate units, can turn not only into a sleeping place, but also into a pair of armchairs or a comfortable chaise longue.
Pouf or table?
Often a decorative pouf also serves as a sofa or coffee table. For many sofas, Italian factories offer a matching pouf with textile or leather upholstery as an accessory. If desired, you can put a few magazines or books on such a pouf, and models with an elastic top covered in leather will completely replace the coffee table.
Models made in the form of add-on modules that transform an upholstered chair into a comfortable armchair are interesting.

Some Italian table models are equipped with unusual but very useful functions. For example, folding chairs can be stored in a special compartment of the table, and Domodinamica has managed to fulfill every child's dream – you can draw as much as you want on the Cuscino & foglio table.

Suitable interior for multifunctional furniture
Multifunctional furniture looks harmoniously in modern interiors, emphasizing their dynamism and sensitivity to change. An inspiring design discovery will appeal to creative people.
Furniture that combines several functions is often chosen by fans of minimalism, because one thing can sometimes replace a whole set, such as a modular sofa that can be used as a bed, a sofa or a set of armchairs. And a bed with built-in storage systems is perfect for a children's room, thus replacing the wardrobe and freeing up additional space.

Dignity
Multifunctional furniture is comfortable and practical. Interesting and unexpected functions put forward by designers in a particular piece of furniture soon become a familiar convenience.
Even among designer furniture from Italy, where every piece surprises and delights, items that combine several functions are quite rare. Therefore, such a thing will immediately transform the interior of the room, emphasizing its uniqueness.
Disadvantages
Multifunctional furniture from Italy is devoid of any major drawbacks. Many argue with this, arguing that no sofa bed provides as comfortable a sleep as a traditional bed. Nevertheless, the Italian sofa bed is not much inferior to it.
Innovative materials such as flexible textiles, memory foam filling, well-tuned folding mechanisms and durable hardware make Italian folding sofas perfect in terms of comfort and cosiness.
