Master Bedroom design from scratch

8 years ago

Hey everyone we just bought a house with a master bedroom that is 176" x 152" (14' 8" x 12' 8"). When you walk in the room there is a wall to the left with 2 wall length Windows, the back wall has a exterior doorway on left side leading to a porch, and the right wall has his and hers small closets. The interior wall has a doorway leading to bathroom. Looking for furniture placement ideas and furniture needs. King/Queen bed? Chests and nightstand placement etc. Haven't bought any furniture yet and just trying to get a good idea from yall. Attached is a rookie blueprint haha can update with pictures tomorrow.

A king bed will be very large for a room that size.

You want a minimum of 30", better 36" around the bed. A queen is five feet wide, so you need about 10 feet in width. It is 6'8" long, so you need like 9 1/2 feet in length.

With all the doors, the only place I see for the bed is against the outside wall with two modest night stands. Then a bureau to the left of the door. Maybe something small between the windows, or just do elegant curtains and enjoy the open space.

The Windows wall or the back porch door wall for bed placements?

The wall by the back porch, the other would not work because of the doors.

I like the color and the white trim. Yes, you will put bed next to the back door with two small nightstands. You could put pin-up lights to save space on top.

Then a bureau on the opposite wall.

If drawer space is needed, you could put a narrow tall chest between the windows. If not, I think an upholstered storage bench with a nice painting above would be pretty.

Hang curtains about 4" wider and halfway between the window frame and ceiling. They can kiss the floor. You may need to buy them too long and then hem, but it is worth it.
