Bedroom

On the other side of the apartment, a bedroom doubles as a workspace.

The snug attic in this former fisherman’s cottage in Copenhagen contains the homeowner’s platform bed, custom-designed by Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen to maximize storage and fit the unusual space.

Two bedrooms separated by sliding doors occupy the partial second story.

In the master bedroom, a small, cramped closet was replaced with a wardrobe that is partially obscured by a slatted wooden screen that was built by Metalworks & Design Studio of Seattle. "The idea was you see through it, so in a sense it doesn't feel like a small space," Smith says.

From the northeast corner of the master bedroom, the homeowners can walk out onto a deck area to enjoy the view of the woods.
