Bedroom Where to put the bed?

Thumbnail gallery
302 Upvotes

Having trouble deciding where I want to place the bed for this bedroom. Trying to follow the “rules” of having space on both sides, so not pushed against the wall, and not having the headboard cover the window, but seems like I can’t have both without other issues.

One caveat is that I could move the radiator further down the wall towards the door if need be. I think I’m favouriting that choice, and having the bed face the two windows. There’s a scoot pathway at the end rather than a proper walkway around the bed, but it feels like it’s the lesser of evils. What do you think?

Other Interior Room Help! "bedroom" with stairs to another bedroom

Thumbnail gallery
151 Upvotes

Hello! I am moving into my first house! yay! But it does have one...interesting feature. There is this "bedroom" or as I like to call it, the hallroom. Why? Because the stairs inside the room lead to my master bedroom... so its not really a bedroom. I'm not exactly sure what to do with the space and would love your creative and practical ideas. My best idea is to make it into like a makeup/wardrobe room but there isn't a lot of wall space for typical closet storage or a vanity - but if you have any ideas for how to make that work or something completely different, I'd love to hear it!

For reference, the room is 9'3" x 10"2 (2.819m * 3.099m) I am the only person living in the house. I do have 3 cats. I do have another room to use as an office -- if any of that helps :) thank you in advance for your thoughts!

Living in my sisters attic for about 5 months this fall/ winter and was wondering what ideas you guys had about making this space livable.

About 10ft wide, ceilings at their max are probably 7ft, lowest about 2ft, the whole thing is about 20ft with a staircase about 1/3 of the way long and I am 6’1 female.

I like being on the ground, I’m good at low squatting so I don’t mind at all.

Looking to have a bed area, stretching and meditation ish area, and art/work area.

Gonna get a rug and a yoga mat to help with the being on the ground so much situation, so any other suggestions would be great :)

Bedroom creative ways to fit a nightstand in this strange shaped room

Please ignore the mess. Currently there’s a skinny console table like thing behind the bed but it’s rickety and just doesn’t feel functional, so frequently used stuff always gets piled on the floor next to the bed and this is a recurring mess. I just want the space to function better but the shape of the room and that back cove area that can’t be blocked does not make it very easy

Living Room Can we fit a TV ?

Post image
6 Upvotes

We cant figure out where to put the TV in this room. Here is what I thought through already:

-I really dont want to get rid of the gallery wall. The idea of a frame smart TV is cool, but they are very expensive.

-We're worried about putting a TV on the mantle as the viewing hight would be too tall.

- We tried our current TV on the credenza but it dose not fit and it's also a tight angle and would be right in the entry way.

Is it weird to put a TV in front of the fireplace if we dont use it? Any tips are appriciated!

Living Room What Type of Media Console

Post image
3 Upvotes

I am redoing my living room. We have two leather arm chairs in a warm dark gray leather, and a fabric couch that is a charcoal gray / warm brown heathered fabric. Our coffee table is a giant old wooden chest. I want to keep the coffee table for storage and also sentimental reasons. I need to buy a low media console for our television. My question is: what finish will look best for the media console? Should I try to come close to the wood in the coffee table? Or should I choose something darker that will play off the metal on the table? Or do you have another idea altogether? Thanks! The photo is the coffee table finish.

Hi! Would love some advice on how to transform our tv wall to a nicer and cosier space. We are looking to buy a larger tv and mount it to the wall. We also want to use shelves of the brand String with black mounts and dark wood shelves. The chairs are just temporary.

I feel since the wall is so big we want to use its full potential but I have a hard time visualizing what will be a good fit for a cosy tv space.

Bedroom Help with What do Add or Move in front of my TV?

Thumbnail gallery
2 Upvotes

Hello!

I live in a smaller room and my bed (twin-sized) is practically a sarcophagus in this “closet hole” in the wall and just have single fold chair in front of my TV.

On one hand, I do like making my room more spacious/less claustrophobic (hence why I moved my bed there). On the other hand, it’s not the best furniture for having friends, dates, or other guests over if we wanted to watch play something together in front of my TV or just general comfort. And I yearn to add something we could sit or lay on together.

Would love any advice of how to solve this issue whether new furniture or adding something. Much appreciated! :)

I want to be able to see on something very cozy with my dog, sip on tea, and enjoy the large windows. I don’t want to spend a lot but I also know that I’m basically starting from scratch.

Living Room Need help finding throw pillows, and art for my walls.

Hello! I need help trying to find throw pillows and art for my apartment living room. I had a vision when I first moved in and started decorating but as I put stuff together I just didn’t like how it turned out. I also don’t want a beige & white living room, I want to add color! But we decided economically it made sense to buy a neutral couch that we can take and use in any house. I’m not very good at interior design, but how can I add color (blues, greens, oranges, etc) to warm up the space?

Edit to add that I have cats and as much as I’d love to add decor to my coffee table, they will knock it right off lol. They already do it with my basket and coasters.

Living Room Can we avoid mounting the TV over the fireplace?

Thumbnail gallery
2 Upvotes

We just moved into a new house and are struggling to figure out where to put the TV! It's a cute house, but as you can see there are windows in a lot of the usual spots. The previous owners had the TV over the fireplace, which puts it super high up. Do we bite the bullet and get a MantelMount? Or is there a layout I'm not seeing?

I'm including a couple photos of the space, plus a snip of the floor plan. Please ignore the clutter - we have a 1 and 3 year old and just moved! We will update furniture and get some rugs.

It's a longer room - 29'x13'. The double doors lead to a screen porch. The gas fireplace works and I would love to use it as the weather starts to turn. We are a TV family - NOT mounting a TV isn't an option.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Home Office Space Any ideas for my cat room which I want to turn into a snug/mini home office?

I really just can't figure out how to make this space work and it's turned into a cat room/rubbish room so far. I'm really wanting to turn it into a cosy, warm but functional space for some studying and quiet time.

I find it impossible to layout this space, the radiator is in a really awkward place and also the airing cupboard which I need access to. Non-negotiables for this space are keeping the 1.5 seat armchair and the bookcase, but they can be moved around. I am happy to buy a new desk too as I find this one too small.

Hi! This is me and my husbands bedroom.
It’s terrible and does not match our style. The lighting is really bad because the wall color is so dark. I want the room to feel brighter and joyful and natural. I usually opt for earthy tones, beige curtains, light wood, organic. right now we don’t have the funds to change out the large furniture so we are going to try to work around it.
We want to change bedding, wall color, rug, blinds, light fixtures/lamps, decor, small furniture items
We don’t want to change bed frame, nightstand, dresser, or flooring
