I recently heard from the inventor of the Doublespace Bed, a freestanding (and that’s a big difference from most other space-saving beds) bed set that allows you to have a couch, office, or anything else you like, underneath your bed.  The bed stays up against the ceiling during the day, and at night, you pull it down so that it rests on top of whatever you’ve got underneath.  So it also could serve as good motivation to keep your desk clean!  It’s not in production just yet, but the Tucson couple John and Yani Gudenkauf, the creators, are working on it.  If you’re interested in helping them along or in being one of the first to buy one, e-mail them at info@doublespacebeds.com.  You can also call them at 520-490-4962.  By the way, as stated on their website the Gudenkaufs are firm believers in eco-friendly and U.S.-manufactured products, so they are trying their very best to produce these beds in the States.
