need help with bed placement

last modified: 2 years ago

The room was used by the previous owner as a craft space. The 3 windows are all different sizes and the walls are at an angle. It just throws everything off.

It's only throwing it off because you are letting it! Put the bed on the back wall and put curtains across the whole wall to fool the eye.

Need help w/ Garden Bed Plant placement
Q
Comments (10)
The biggest problem I see here is that the bed will appear completely empty for a significant portion of the year when the perennials are all dormant and below ground. This is not a good look nor is it the slightest bit inviting for a front entry garden. It will also invite a lot of weed development. There is a landscape design rule of thumb that states that an entry planting should look as uniform as possible year round, which means you need to have a predominance of plants with a year round presence. That's evergreens, either small broadleafed evergreen shrubs or dwarf conifers (needled evergreens). There are also a few evergreen perennials or those that hold their foliage/have a presence year round that could be included but not knowing where in the world you might be located, I can't make any specific suggestions. The other suggestion is to avoid planting anything in rows. It is not a natural look and tends to look contrived. Plant in sweeps/drifts or clusters.

I think I’d center it to the window and the fan, rather than the wall. Even if it means one side of bed will not have a nightstand due to lack of space.

help needed with use/placement of sconces by bed

Jill, sounds like you’re an artist so you must be creative/ crafty, yes? How about repurposing or up cycling the sconces since you haven’t found a place to use as is? Take both rings off & hang horizontally as part of wall arrangement or above that back door bench? Or use as is in an outdoor protected or covered area with solar candles? A Google search for repurposed wall candle sconces received some interesting results. BTW, I agree with the suggestion of lowering, just a bit, the art on wall with door but I don’t think the art over your bed is too big. The scale balances with headboard size. I don’t dislike the image of morroccan mirror over side table but I wouldn’t do it as detracts from art over bed, will be cluttered when you add lamps, the 2 side tables may be different sized so symmetrical look will be messed up & mostly will be just too cluttered & over decorated. I did like the blue throw over bed to add some color. All these different opinions is what makes things interesting & sparks new ideas!

I like the bed on the wall it’s on. I like the idea of wall to wall curtains and I’d do it on those two walls. The two not angled walls.

——-

Add a rug, new light
Maybe a desk and chair on the angled wall and the bench and some chairs near the bed ...

I’d try moving it in front of the window on the right, where the chaise is in the second photo. The scale of the window may be better with the bed, hard to tell with the angle but might as well take pictures of each option! Also that mirror isn’t working for me, it adds another rectangular shape and doesn’t work with the shape of any of the windows - just adds to the mismatches. Do any of the windows have nice view or a view that needs to be blocked and are any east or west facing?

Below are just a few of the bedrooms we have designed for our clients. You might notice how at times we end up placing the bed in front of the windows. It can work having a bed in front of a window. Just note our window treatments, bedding, artwork, night stands, lamps, rugs, and various other decor items we have sprinkled throughout.
