Hi, some great comments. Just looking at your bedroom. I have worked with a number of projects with limited hanging space and storage space options. I would suggest considering: - Reconfiguring your existing wardrobe. Removing the storage cupboards at the top of the wardrobe and replacing with two levels of hanging space. This would involve having new wardrobe doors made but will give you double the amount of hanging space internally . You simply install a hanging rail at the top of the wardrobe and another half way down the wardrobe. If you have dresses to hang, you could install double hanging across two thirds of the wardrobe and one smaller full length rail for the final wardrobe area. Typically, we tend to have more jackets, trousers etc. As you would be replacing the doors of the wardrobe. I would take the opportunity to paint the wardrobe in a complimentary colour to the walls or contrast colour. As you have now taken away valuable shelf storage. I would consider replacing your bed with a storage bed. A model in keeping with the house in style where you can lift the mattress up to give the full depth and length of the bed to store clothes, linen, towels etc. You brass bed is lovely, but a storage bed with a beautiful headboard would give a great amount of extra storage. Do not buy a storage bed with storage drawers. This does not add as much flexibility. All the best:-)

Stunning photography guys. Beautiful

i meant to have the bed over the existing wall and part of the alcove like this, with the blue bit being built to look like a wall, but with access through a simple door... Depending on type of bed headboard you could have recessed shelves built into the storage above and/or beside the bed to act as bedside table.

I think the key here is to get a bed which maximises mattress size but minimises footprint. You also want to have recessed legs if possible as this makes it easier to get around the bed in a tight space. There is an explanation of this on my website (https://aliceclarestudio.co.uk/project/floating-bed/ ). There is also one which I think fits the bill at Urban Size (https://urbansize.co.uk/products/oak-bed ) though it is only UK standard double which personally I think is too small for a bed which is going to regularly have two people sleeping in it! I prefer to specify a UK king size (150cm) or a European size which is 160cm wide. I have a similar issue in my bedroom which is very long (though not as narrow as yours). Which I solved by putting storage behind the head of the bed - rather unusual but may help you here. My headboard is actually drawers! I think whatever you do will be a bit of a compromise so I suggest trying the bed in different places to see where you think there is enough space to get around it.
