To make my small bedroom look bigger, I downsized from a queen sized bed to a full sized one. It instantly opened my bedroom up. Someone even asked me, “how does your bedroom look bigger to me now?” 🤭 It looks more balanced too because I have two nightstands instead of one. I miss my queen bed though. 😔 👸🏽

Yes, outside the US 3 × 3 metres is pretty standard in modern and new homes where builders cut costs and make more from downsizing every room.. I am lucky to have a house built in the 1930's when the bedrooms were bigger then so my main bedroom is 4.5 x 3.5 metres which isn't that big but it makes a big difference that it is a bit longer. It has no closet or built in wardrobe of course so a free standing wardrobe takes up some space but I plan on doing a corner wardrobe to mediate that.

Replace queen with full size bed - many are in great condition at bargain price in second hand stores. Move bed to a wall that gives you at least 18” on each side and 24” to stand in front of closet. Either run sheer drapes across the entire wall or replace window drapes with inside mount Roman shade. Replace table lamp with wall sconces. Hang mirror opposite the window to add symmetry and reflect natural light to other walls. Paint the entire room - windows, doors, walls, moldings, maybe ceiling - all the same color. Replace any small pictures with 1 very large picture. If room has no carpet, leave floor bare or get solid rug 6” to 12” smaller than room on all 4 sides.

Hi Julie. I'm originally from SE Asia and in my country, the building code requires that for a bedroom, one of the sides must be at least 2m. It's common to have bedrooms which are 2x2.5m or 2x3m for budget builds or apartments. Of course if one has more space or $$, then the rooms can be bigger. The bedrooms in my rented apt are 2x3m. It can fit a double bed (full size) or single bed/ day bed. Studio apartments can be as small as 15 to 20 sqm (~150 to 200 sq ft). Thnx for the vid, great ideas!

I like the ecletic one best. I need to move my bed omto the solid wall. Right now my feet are pointing toward the door in the coffin stance. Inhad no idea that this was so disrupting. I placed it here cause tgere is floorboard heat and i have to stay 18 " away from it. I didnt think thst i cound fit my bed and dresser on the same wall, but now that ive been here close 4 months, i can see that thres enough room. Il have to get my great granddaugter to help me rearange. Thank you so much for the ideas

A few points: * I have rarely seen a _square_ bedroom on the West Coast. They are usually rectangular, usually n x n+1 or n+2. So 10 x 11 or 10 x 12, 9 x 11, 11 x 13, etc. * Thinking back to all the bedrooms in all the houses and apts I have lived in or hung out in, I think bedroom closets are _rarely_ positioned where they would be behind the open bedroom door. When they are back-to-back like you talked about, the bedroom with the door opening on the right, as you showed, would have the closet on the left. The one exception was a master bedroom I once had where the left side had a passage to an en-suite sink and toilet/bath. * I have always naturally followed some of the feng shui rules. However, I recently found I rather like being along a window (twin bed parallel to window wall, about 16" from that wall), where I can see out at an angle while my head is against the long wall. I wonder if that is OK. Also, why would the assumption be that "energy coming through the window" is "negative"? * It seemed to me that many of the examples that flashed (too quickly) on-screen while she was talking about individual elements, were actually _bad_ feng shui layouts! * I wanted to start a new drinking game: take a drink every time she says "... _plop_ it in...". (Wouldn't "place it" be a more accurate and elegant way of saying it?)

I’d say it depends on how they get along each year but you’ve got to go with what works for your family. In olden days, there would be a few kids in one bed. I’d say the only other options would be either a trundle, Murphy beds or bunk beds. Maybe even a Murphy bed in another room. Maybe even a bed with storage underneath so they might not need a standard size dresser if they have one. I slept in the lounge for about 4 yrs and then 2 yrs in the dining room during my separation and just gave the ex the main room. I enjoyed it for the most part but he complained that I didn’t want him in the kitchen late at night waking me up but it was the best option at the time.

I’m with Fiona below 🙋🏼‍♀️ I grew up in the olden days and not only shared a room with my two older siblings, but often shared a twin bed as well. We all had our own twins, but I always wanted to stay close and toggled between whichever two I was getting along with better that week 😂 you can try a full bed with a pull-out trundle underneath. They can have the option to sleep together or separately 👍

@alla - I grew up in SE Asia and my family wasn't rich. There, it's common for siblings (esp if same gender) to share a bed. I shared a room & bed with my elder sister until my late teens. I only had my own room after she moved out due to work (in another city). Looking back, there were many times when I wished that I had my own room and/ or bed. I think if the kids are still young (below 10 or 12), then it's OK to share a bed. After that, if they can't have own rooms, then maybe own beds? I would choose bunk beds with privacy curtains, when that time came.

thanks everyone. We'll need a different house in order for them not to share a bad so they might have to keep sharing for a while longer. there is no room for a Murphy bed and my husband says bunk beds are dangerous.

I have bathroom in my master bedroom.What I can do ?

What’s your specific question?

All the bedrooms you show are enormous next to mine.

What size are you working with Shoshana? The space planning segment was using a 10x10 sample layout

You've described my bedroom to a "T".

Some constructive feedback… I’d really appreciate seeing the room pics longer, instead of seeing you talk.

Great, then my calculations should work beautifully with the space planning 👍☺️

. why not turn your bedroom into a living room . i think bedrooms are wasted space and no sense . reading or eating in bed is the most uncomfortable position i can imagine .

If that works for you, go for it! 🙌🏻

New subscriber here. Could you please talk a little bit slower and take a few more breaths. Less is more. My poor ears and brain can't cope with a huge monologue. Not that there is anything wrong with either my ears or my brain. Just a bit much at the end of the day. Thank you.
