Living in my studio for many days at a time, I can say this is the most practical option, combining maximum comfort and portability. It can be dressed up with nice sheets and things if that's your style. It works, as long as you can let go of the ego that says, I'm rich, I deserve a frame and a mattress ;D. It's a lie, mattresses and frames suck. I lived off the $100 option in the studio for years and my back loves me for it!

A disclaimer, however: I'm 5'7", so I don't know how some of them would be suited to a taller human, check the measurements if you haven't already dismissed the concept of an air bed

@adam313 I've currently got a basic foam mattress and no frame. Before that I was sleeping on the floor. I do have a frame, but my proper mattress that fits it is in Wales and I'm in Australia. Need to sort that one out.
@Bluegrass I love the Zeitraum too. I think that my tastes in furniture would be eclectic enough to through in the old-school daybed with more contemporary pieces.
You'd probably also like the Turtle Stapelbett.

I like your stlye. I've had a tempur-pedic mattress and pillow at all times since 2004.I highly recommend the aerobed. It's so cheap $wise, but totally durable and totally customizable in terms of firmness/softness. I let it inflate until the sensor says its full and then add just a bit more. I love sleeping on air, it is just another reason to live in my studio
I hope you find the ideal option!

I'm getting there.
The other wrinkle is that I'm in rented accommodation, and likely to remain so for a while. This means that whatever I get has to adapt to different spaces. I've got a nice, oak table that I'm probably going to end up selling because it's too big for my current place.

I was out shopping for a sofa today, and I saw this one in one of the mid-century furniture shops.
It's upholstered in a thick leather which is beautifully patinated. The shop assistant thought that it might have been buffalo, and there were some patches that exhibited the characteristic grain.
My one concern is that the seat felt a little uneven. The problem with vintage or antique furniture is that it can cost a lot to rectify. A full restoration of a sofa can be 75% of the new price. If I bought this, it'd no doubt be making a trip to an upholsterer's shop in short order.

sofa is lovely, just knock out the kinks in it by having lots of sex on the bumpy section

5 doors within 2 steps of each other. I've always thought this was kind of cool.

Seems worth it to me.

I'm not a fan of purple, but that sofa is too cool. Reminds me of something Morpheus would own.
+1 !!
