Bedroom furniture arrangement?

3 years ago

We got a little greedy with the bed and got king size for the new place. I need to make a WFH space somewhere here (currently working with the square IKEA desk in the picture) but nothing really fits unless I get an overbed table or something. We are also thinking about mounting a TV opposite the bed. Would IKEA Malm dressing table of some sort work? If not, how can I rearrange furniture so that I can make more space? Thanks in advance!

Can you post the floor plan or additional pictures? Trying to figure out where the bed is in relation to the dressers.

I'm guessing this is the current layout:

I try moving the dresser(s) to the wall opposite the bed.

You are welcome. Most of the time, I do place the bed in the back of the room , facing the door. Normally the bed is the largest visual piece in the room. In this case, the bed is rather short and the other pieces dominate it. So, it feels better with these larger pieces on the far wall. The bed is still in a good spot.

It is too high to use as a bedside table. Bedside table should be about the height of the mattress. Put it where you have the floor lamp

I like the zones you have created. Bed facing door, dressers by the closet For East in getting dressed, and sitting area niche between. I think before you decide on anything you might decide on furniture as it’s design will drive future choices. I think your sitting area might benefit from some type of shelving unit floor to ceiling with closed storage in bottom, open on the upper sides with large niche for the TV in the middle.You could then have a pair of lounge chairs or chaise lounges opposite the TV. Maybe a console table in the window? But definitely go shopping on Houzz and find some rooms that you love and furniture showrooms to be inspired. Take your room measurements with you when you shop! Just off the top of my head ideas!

In the first picture you can put a desk across the end of the bed, and in the last picture you can put a desk between the doors. Mirrors above dressers - are they really needed? What could be there that uses that space better? Personally, I just need one full length mirror. Take advantage of your vertical space. Some experts say no tv or reading in the bedroom.

wow @er612 that is exactly the layout! However the space between the wall and the bed is very narrow and if we put the dressers there i wont be able to use them at all...
