If you can order from IKEA, or have one nearby, I highly recommend you check them out for most of your furniture needs. You hear all the time that people hate IKEA, and how cheap their furniture feels, but I think that might be because people don't know how to take care of their furniture. You have to know the limits.
DESK: LINNMON / $45 - I've had this desk for 2 years going on 3, and have not had one single issue with it. Here is an image of it's potential.
PROJECTOR: Optoma HD142X / $545 - One of the best 1080p projectors on the market for the price. Can throw an amazing 150+ in screen size while still looking incredibly vivid and beautiful. Here is what it looks like in my current setup. Beats my 55 inch 4k TV I bought for $700.
There are also some short throw projectors that are really expensive, but if it's worth not having to mount it then it might be a good fit for you. Just note, any projector will be limited to how many devices you can hook up to it so I recommend either going with something like a chromecast, or buying a receiver to hook everything up to.
If you get a sofa from IKEA, just know that you are sacrificing a bit of comfort for aesthetics / easy setup and take down when you move. But the second part to that is important in your situation.
Most IKEA sofas are bought broken down, and you set it up at home. This makes moving them in much easier.
SOFA: FRIHETEN Sleeper sectional / $599 - This sofa is comfortable, functional, and looks really nice. I have since replaced it with a larger sectional when I moved, but here is an image of what it can look like in a space.
BED: Zinus Memory Foam 10 Inch Mattress, King / $275 - This is easily the best purchase I have made in quite some time. I was skeptical about it's price, but it is easily beyond any mattress I have ever slept on.
BEDFRAME: Really anything you like in this category, there are many options from all over the place. If you get a memory foam then a platform bed without a box spring looks sleek.
There are ultra short throw projectors that only need to be 10-15 inches in front of the screen or so. But they are expensive and really can't compete with a traditional ceiling mounted projector in terms of quality, especially at that price point.

There are also regular short throw projectors, which are designed to sit on a coffee table in the middle of the room. These would be much more affordable.

To be honest, in hind sight I'd probably have done just as well with a TV with a Lexan cover cut to fit.
What was wrong with those?
How about the Optoma ML750?

Physics only allow so much for a given size.

So, this is kinda what you would expect for a true 4k projector right now.
I had this same thought process about a year ago when I was looking at fleshing out my home theater. So, naturally, I quickly decided I'd wait on 4k.
At first, I went with this guy and returned it because there's no way to augment the picture. You have to be lined up perfectly or the screen gets wonky.
So, after that, I decided on this guy. Not only is this a great projector, but it has a way better image than the ultra short throw, has all the screen adjustments I needed to get the image centered on the screen correctly, but it's also abobut $700 cheaper. Has a great 1080p image, which is ultimately enough for movies and gaming in my man cave.

The projection is strong with this one.
I'd recommend you get one of these to deal with that.
