The Templeton is distinguished by four classic shaker-style doors on the face. When built in oak, it takes on a warm Craftsman-style look that feels both timeless and substantial. One of its standout features is the Stay Level Desk. There is no need to completely clear the desk when transitioning to the bed position. Items up to 8 inches tall can remain on the desk, or up to 4 inches tall when the optional drawers are added.

Any of our Stay Level Desk options can be used with this design. Choose from the standard Stay Level Desk, a three-drawer version, a two-drawer version with a keyboard tray, or a lift-up center version to best match your workspace needs.

The Templeton Murphy Bed with Stay Level Desk: Work Smarter, Live Better

As homes continue to evolve into multi-functional spaces, the need for furniture that adapts effortlessly has never been greater. The Templeton Murphy Bed with Stay Level Desk is designed to meet that demand—combining a comfortable sleeping solution with a dedicated workspace that doesn’t require constant setup and teardown. This version is a popular one in the King size.

A Seamless Blend of Work and Rest

The standout feature of the Templeton is its integrated Stay Level Desk. Unlike traditional setups where everything needs to be cleared before opening the bed, this desk remains level as the bed transitions. That means your workspace stays intact—no need to remove monitors, paperwork, or everyday essentials.

It’s a practical upgrade for anyone balancing productivity and comfort within the same room.

Designed for Everyday Efficiency

The Templeton makes it easy to switch between modes without disrupting your workflow. During the day, you have a fully functional desk for work, studying, or creative projects. At night, the bed lowers smoothly into place, transforming the room into a comfortable sleeping environment.

This dual-purpose design is ideal for:

  • Home offices that double as guest rooms
  • Studio apartments or smaller homes
  • Students and remote professionals
  • Flex spaces that need to serve multiple roles

With minimal effort, the room adapts to your needs.

A Clean, Structured Look

Beyond functionality, the Templeton Murphy Bed offers a refined, structured design that fits comfortably in modern and transitional interiors. Its balanced proportions and thoughtful detailing give it a furniture-like appearance, helping it blend naturally into the room rather than feeling purely utilitarian.

The addition of the desk enhances its visual appeal, creating a purposeful, built-in look that feels both organized and intentional.

Maximize Space Without Sacrificing Usability

One of the biggest challenges in smaller or multi-use spaces is maintaining both function and comfort. The Templeton solves this by eliminating the need for separate furniture pieces.

Instead of juggling a bed and a desk that compete for space, you get both in one streamlined solution. This opens up the room for better flow, more usable square footage, and a less cluttered environment overall.

Built for How People Live Today

The way people use their homes has changed—remote work, hybrid schedules, and flexible living are now the norm. The Templeton Murphy Bed with Stay Level Desk is built with that reality in mind.

It supports:

  • Consistent daily use as a workstation
  • Quick transitions between work and rest
  • A more organized and efficient living space

It’s not just about saving space—it’s about making that space work better.

A Smarter Investment in Your Space

The Templeton offers more than convenience; it provides long-term value. By combining two essential functions into one cohesive design, it reduces the need for additional furniture while improving the usability of your home.

If you’re looking for a solution that supports both productivity and comfort without compromise, the Templeton Murphy Bed with Stay Level Desk delivers a thoughtful, efficient answer—designed for the way modern spaces are meant to function.
