Murphy Beds in Chinatown, Washington DC

Living at the center of the city means every decision about space is a real one. In Chinatown condos we build Murphy beds that give a bedroom back its floor, or give a den a sleeping function it never had, using cabinetry that fits the clean lines these newer buildings are designed around.

A Murphy bed from us is a storage project as much as a sleeping one. The cabinet wall around the bed typically adds more usable storage than a standard closet, which is why so many Chinatown installs happen in rooms that were bursting before the project and feel oddly empty after it. You can see how these builds fit into the bigger catalog on our Chinatown furniture store page.

Why Put a Murphy Bed in Your Chinatown Home?

Because the alternatives all compromise something. Sofa beds compromise the sleeping. Air mattresses compromise the guest's back and your floor space. A spare-room-only setup compromises the other fifty weeks of the year. A cabinet Murphy bed is the version where nothing gets compromised, which is why Chinatown homeowners keep landing on it. About half of these projects uncover a storage problem too, which is where custom closets in Chinatown come in.

Murphy Bed Features for Chinatown Homes

Popular options in Chinatown include side towers with hanging storage, integrated LED reading lights, fold-down desks that hold a monitor, and media shelving above the cabinet. Every system includes soft-close hardware and adjustable interiors as standard, because those should never be upsells. You can see the same options at work one town over in our Murphy beds in Capitol Hill projects.

About Chinatown

Chinatown and the blocks around Capital One Arena are as central as DC living gets, dense with newer condo buildings where every square foot was paid for dearly. Units here are efficient by design, and owners furnish them the same way. Built-in pieces that serve two purposes keep these apartments feeling open instead of full.
