And there is a sofa on the back of the closet.
The space occupied by Rognan is as follows, and it is large enough to fit into a room of about 6 m in size of 3m x 3.5m.
Rognan can be placed on a rail installed in a room and can be slid by computer control. The bed at the bottom of the closet also slides and appears.

Store the pillow in the closet.
And when you tap the bed icon on the control panel ...
The bed was automatically stored under the closet.
Next time you tap the hanger icon ...
Rognan slides in such a way that the front of the closet is of a suitable size. You can get ready before going out.
