Need help with bedroom furniture placement. Can't decide where to place double bed with headboard and a work desk or bookshelves.

Hi,

In a bedroom, the bed should be in a commanding position which means you should be able to see who's coming in to the room. For that reason, you should place the bed on the wall opposite to the door and place your desk either on one side of the bed or under the window if there is enough space. Bookshelf can go on one side of the bed. Since it is a rectangular room, you might get a bit restricted with the space available.

Hope it helps.

When placing the bed with headboard onyo the wall opposite the door, you will have to squeeze through towards the wardrobe which I am not comfortable with. Hence the question here

Just a thought, what about putting the bed against the wall of the walk in wardrobe and you can still have your headboard, no need to change or move a radiator and the wife's side of the bed would be next to the wardrobe entrance. It's all a bit cramped by the looks of things and while you'll have your ensuite and your walkin wardrobe you'll still be walking into a box room. Another thought I had to to lose the bedside cabinets and increase the appearance of space would be in to have the bed side lights on the partition wall and the storage built into the stud wall with pull out shelves for those breakfast in bed moments and cups of tea. Change the door to open onto your landing as well!!! Good luck

I agree with man about the house about the wardrobes. They look very heavy for the room and will give you more flexibility. You have plenty of walls to have wardrobes on. You have a long room so there are plenty of options. If you want me to sketch up your options please email me.

Hi Joe, I've come up with an option for you, I hope it gives you some inspiration! I've proposed creating a 'dressing area' around the large window with wardrobes and a dressing table. It's good to have a dressing table by good natural light. I've put the bed where it's going to get you the most walk around space. In front of the bed to make use of the space I've included a large low level chest of drawers, you could either have some nice artwork/mirror above, or if you're a TV in the bedroom person that's an option. You could get some large bedside tables here as there is the space. In the corner I've put a bedroom chair, which is always handy for throwing clothes on to at the end of the day. I don't know if it's an option, but I've proposed rehanging the ensuite door as it feels awkward currently. I hope that helps!

It might be worthwhile having a floorplan created showing the true size of the room and then you can look at what furniture will fit in the space correctly. Our Midi Living package provides this if you need help!

I can make a floor plan for you if you can provide the dimensions of the door, window and width and depth of the wardrobe. Please include the measurement of the walls next to the window and the door. Since you already have a double bed and the wardrobe, rest of the furniture can be worked around it.

Does the 5.2m include the wardrobe?

And if it's a double bed that needs to go in, the only way is lengthwise against the wall, as 2.3 sure is tight.

Imagine the shelves being a frame, mounted to ceiling as well for safety/sturdy reasons, then a headboard attached to it, some bedlights etc.
