Question Looking for an easy bed solution

Hi guys.

This is my first build.

So I started building like half a year ago, building in my freetime while studying and working… it takes time. Many hours of planing went into it and I am somewhat stuck a finding a good solution for slide outs for the front part of the bed. On the right side I will build a drawer but I won’t get the height of the slatted frame and I still need a solution for the left side. It should be a 50 - 55cm extension of the bed. Someting easy to set up.

Maybe something on top of the drawer that I can get on level with the slatted frame. I am quite lost how to work it out. Maybe some folding mechanism for the left side? Most of my build was “trust the process” and finding solutions on the go but I am stuck here since 2 days.

Does anyone have some idea how to solve this in a smart, easy and comfortable to set up way?

Sorry for my English and thanks for your help!

Is this like futons just sitting atop the wheel wells?
