A convertible furniture system or futon includes a convertible frame assembly that is mountable in an interior space and is deployable between a bench configuration and a flat, bed configuration. The frame assembly includes a back frame and a bottom frame that are pivotably coupled together and coordinate to form either the bench configuration that provides a user an upright seat or the bed configuration that provides the user a flat, substantially horizontal bed to lie down on. A user can maneuver the system from the bench configuration into the bed configuration and vice versa. The system may include an actuator, such as a spring mechanism or motorized linear actuator. The system includes various support elements mounted to upright walls and the support elements may be selectively engaged to support the system in the bed or bench configurations and during deployment and stowage of the system.
