I drew up to scale both rooms and actually like the larger room. I don't know how to show you the lay out. Thanks for the dimensions. (I had to convert to feet since I'm an Amazonian). Anyway First, draw it out on graphic paper instead of hauling the furniture around, it is so much easier. Normally putting the bed at an angle takes up so much more room that I often can't do it but in this case it works, in my opinion and looks great! So, as you enter room in area to your left there appears to be just enough room for your wardrobe. Then as you stand at the bottom of your bed put the right hand top corner just in about the middle of the window angling it towards the door. It won't be a ful on 45 degree angle, just enough to position your dressing table against the left wall. I put it about 21 inchs or 2 feet away from the wardrobe. Whatever works for your doors. This still gives you a little room to manuever , for making your bed, to the left of the bed when needed.. I would place the dresser across from the table a couple feet away from door opening. This is all tight, granted but looks interesting and spacy to me, at least on paper. The bed corner in the middle of the window gives a sense of planning and simetry. You actually could do the whole wall in a sheer but also could just dress the window maybe in an up down interesting shade, bamboo or something textural and if you want a soft swag at the top in a great fabric to pull some color up to draw your eye. You could place a tree, (ficus, maybe), or something architectural or sculptural, tall behind the headboard. Use your vertical spaces, anything to draw your eye up. Put a tall mirror at your dressing table. You really even have room with this arrangement to have a pretty good sized round table on the right side of your bed and even a tall, 12 inch deep by 2 or 3 feet wide bookcase a foot or so away from the window wall on the right side of your room. If you do things to draw your eye up, the room will feel more spacious instead of focusing on the furniture area. I'm loving it. wish I could fly across the pond and help you! good luck!

Yes that sounds cobbled together. I suspect the cost of the quote is mainly high because stair carpets mean lots of wastage and they will possibly have an additional cost of binding the edge. Consider getting the carpet shop to just fit a landing carpet and for the time being you use your own runner for the stairs and possibly upgrade to a matching stair carpet later

Amazing place. If you think about the values rather than the colours it may help. I feel the walls need to be light and as much as is possible the floor too. If both the ceiling and the walls are dark it may feel very squeezed in. I don't know if huge pale rugs are an option, but they would certainly reflect some light back in. The colour might also be determined by lighting. If you use LED lights, they can really skew paint colours, often bringing in an unpleasant green tinge, especially to off white with a yellow base. Something like the 'Stone' colours from Paint and Paper library are really good, they are slightly pinker than any of the F&B yellow based neutrals and nicer than their red based ones. Stone 2 or 3 might be a good start.

I really like the green and your sofa choice is super. But I think the layout needs a change because firstly it’s I pity to have the best bits in the same place- so the window and sofa should be separated, plus you need to resolve the problem that the TV height is only suitable for people on ladders. So I have a suggestion of an alternative layout
