The conceptual apartment design sees the sleeping quarters installed into the flooring of the [compact unit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sbc-apartment) and capable of being slid underneath it whilst not in use. When hidden, the bed frame acts as a set of stairs for walking up to the risen seating area. Dedicated bedrooms are becoming a hot commodity in urban areas around the world as development buildings create more bachelor/studio spaces to fit more residents. This apartment design from Geometrium with the hidden bed helps show how consumers can make the most of literally every square inch without sacrifice. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.8/10 - Popularity: 99% | Activity: 97% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Hidden Bed Apartments:** The trend of hidden bed apartments offers a space-saving solution for small living quarters. - **Compact Living:** The trend of compact living is becoming the norm as more people opt for smaller living spaces. - **Maximizing Space:** The trend of maximizing space in apartments allows consumers to make the most of every square inch. ### Where This Applies - **Interior Design:** The interior design industry can capitalize on the trend of hidden bed apartments by offering innovative space-saving solutions. - **Real Estate:** The real estate industry can tap into the trend of compact living by developing more bachelor/studio spaces in urban areas. - **Furniture:** The furniture industry has an opportunity to provide multifunctional and modular furniture designs to maximize space in small apartments. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Thoughtful Micro Studio Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-studio-apartment.md) - [Smartly Designed Compact Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/compact-apartments2.md) - [Fold-Out Furniture London Flats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/florin-court-flat.md) - [Inversion Living Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiny-getaway.md) - [Cleverly Designed Micro Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cabanon.md) - [Multifunctional Small Studio Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-mescla.md) - [Apartment-Inspired Drawer Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apt-drawers.md) - [Box-Like Innovative Apartment Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/innovative-apartment-design.md) - [Compact Living Bright Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apartment-ann.md)
