Hi There, Taking into consideration the general layout of the space I think that this room could serve well as a dual purpose room, converting it to a study with a play corner for the kids could allow you the opportunity to take care of your daily admin tasks while keeping an eye on the children and as they grow desk space could be made available where they can have their own work stations. Other more extensive options would include a side extension next to the kitchen which would allow you to open up the space more effectively and make use of natural light through the addition of skylights over the kitchen extension. This space could then become a family orientated living area while the front living room could be decreased in size or split in two to form a study and play room for the kids. A under stair storage space could also meet your requirements of a cloak and boot room... We hope our reply has been of some assistance in the decision making process and feel free to contact us should you require any more assistance. I'll be more than happy to advise you further. You can contact me through our site - betterspace.co Good luck, Ed.

bedroom size upstairs

Hi Kerry Thanks for your response. I am attaching the final plan for your reference. Lots of things still needs to be sorted. Need expert advice. 1. On GF there is a door and solid wall to go to the lounge which we are expanding, we are in two minds to whether to keep or to remove the solid brick wall and replace with glass pocket door or slider to give a open look, or shall we keep the wall to maintain privacy and will get two walls on both sides to play with interiors ( size of the lounge is pretty ok)? 2. Shall we put glass partition or solid wall for the dining area showed in plan ( which we are planning to keep either as play room/study/spare room - to be decided later) - keeping the access from both sides- lounge and from outside. Advice please. Upstairs: 3. Now as per the plan we are having 4 double bedrooms. We are converting the 5th bedroom in a very tiny box room ( not going for on suite as shown) access from BR3. 4. We have to get rid of the onsuite of BR2 ( which we are not very happy with :( ) and also had to compromise with the big family bathroom ( again not very happy) to make the landing bit open and big. We are now thinking to make the landing bit small and keep the BR2 big by moving the family bathroom approximately 500 towards the landing and keep the landing small? Advice please. 5. Is the size of the onsuite ok or shall we move 4” towards the walk-in cupboard and make it big? We are still deciding on walk-in shower vs shower tray enclosure. 6. Will the Family bathroom be too congested? I have been advised to go with either 1000 x 1500 corner bath or 1200x750 shower bath, which I am not very convinced with. Can’t get everything ;) 7. Ideas on the location of bathroom fittings please. 8. We are going for water UFH on the ground floor. Any advice on flooring for GF and FF. We are thinking to keep the carpet and radiators for upstairs or laminated flooring recommend? Opinions pls. 8. Ideas on roof light/ roof lantern pls. 9. Advice on all the doors pls. 10. We are going for cove light, spot light and central light but confused to give the detailed design for electrical points. Electricians waiting ! Too many questions waiting for prompt positive response from the experts.

Making Small Rooms Seem Larger
Q

They say good things come in small packages - sometimes it doesn't feel like it! When you are faced with a cramped room that just won’t cooperate with your interior plans, this couldn’t feel further from the truth. However at Decorbuddi there are a multitude of tricks we all use to create the illusion of space, transforming the pokiest of rooms into the most envious of places. This is a guide for doing exactly that, we hope it is helpful. PAINT Concealing the smaller size of a room can be as simple as applying a lick of paint if you are clever with how you do it. Create a seamless facade by painting all exposed surfaces the same colour – up over the ceiling across skirting boards, cupboard doors and book shelves. Painting skirtings the same colour as flooring in an excellent tip for making a floor seem wider, particularly in hallways. Should you wish to add some design detailing, do not be tempted by bold contrasts, but instead bring in similar toned colours so as not to distract the eye too much. Keep overarching patterns faint, and bring in a pop of colour or two as a focal point – perhaps in an artwork or accessories. With no broken lines of paint to distract the eye and finishing touches that are both subtle and chic, the overall effect creates the appearance of a much bigger space. WINDOWS Natural light is a true blessing to size-challenged rooms, so if there is a good source of natural light, be sure to use it to your advantage. When dressing your window, choose blinds or curtains that allow the maximum light in and assemble the fixtures up as high as they will go. Go the whole hog and choose wall to ceiling curtains that lift the eye, making ceilings appear higher, or even ditch the window dressings entirely – just add a frosty film to the lower section of the frame for privacy, and allow light to shine in from the top all day long. Play with reflections and add mirrors to double the luminosity from the window, bouncing the sunshine around the space makes a huge difference (even on a dull day). ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING If the room lacks natural light, consider embracing the darkness for a more dramatic effect. Attempting to conceal the shadows of a room by painting it a lighter colour, may only dull the space and highlight its gloominess. However, reaching for a deeper palette, a dark room painted a dark tone can become atmospheric and alluring, when carefully lit with striking lighting (this is a key component) and curated thoughtfully with home accessories. Layering the lighting is just as important in a small space as in a larger room. Though you may be confined by less surface area, you are by no means limited to just one light source. Combining overhead, wall and/or task lighting, such as a bedside reading light in a small bedroom or lights either side of a mirror in a bathroom, will be better both aesthetically and functionally. Use lights to add some drama – think bright spotlights striking the wall or moody low-lit lampshades that illuminate shaded corners and create a warming atmosphere. DECLUTTERING & STORAGE Overcrowding with ‘stuff’ always makes a room feel cramped, so make sure you have a really thorough declutter and then be careful not to fill the space with lots of little bits and pieces. When reintroducing items back into the room, choose one or two show stopping elements over smaller nicknacks. For the items you just can’t live without, tuck them away behind closed doors and capitalise on some clever storage space. Floor to ceiling push door cupboards, under eave, stair or sink drawers, are just some of the clever ways storage space can be maximised. Plan your layout very carefully for exactly what you want to house there and fit it bespoke. This doesn’t need to be expensive, and you can opt to use Ikea frameworks with custom fronts or MDF, all you need is a great joiner to bring it all together. FURNISHING & FINISHING TOUCHES There is a temptation to think that small rooms need small furniture and decor but carefully placed oversized pieces and patterns can con the perspective of the room into appearing fuller, and therefore larger. When tiling a bathroom floor, for example, go for the biggest size tile possible to give the illusion of more space. Take the same tile up the wall to widen the feeling of the room yet further. Apply this same theory to your furnishing, and supersize the final finishing pieces. Choose furniture with legs that leave space between the piece and the floor, and resist using the space for storage. Vacancies under a bed, chest of drawers, or bathroom cabinet will give a much greater sense of space than something that is boxed into the floor. Large art or art grouped together as one piece will look much more captivating in a small space than lots of separate pieces. See our tips on gallery walls for some inspiration on creating that feature wall. And finally, remember to play to your strengths in curating your small room. Whether it is highlighting the light or harnessing the shadows, decluttering your treasures or stashing them away, apply these tips to suit the space that you are working with, and transform that tiny chamber into a sensational suite that appears both bigger and fuller.

How wide is the bay? (Not convinced the plan is entirely accurate if the previous people had a sofa on the left wall?). Ignore the furniture choice, was trying to find photos at the right angle! I might do something like this. You may also be able to have another chair on the left wall. If you go for an upholstered footstool you have more seating when needed and I’d choose a low back sofa so it’s not poking over the top of the window sill. If you don’t want the sofa to impose on the room too much, choose a colour that doesn’t contrast with the walls too much. Perhaps choose a rug that is large enough for all of the front feet of the furniture to sit on. You can always use masking tape to mark out the exact size of furniture.
