What is on the other three walls -- would the bed work elsewhere?

Is the overhead light fixture centered between the two windows? If so, usually it would make sense to center the bed but if you need clearance for a door or space for a seating area, that matters.

Invest in some graph paper and draw, to scale, the size and shape of the room with doors and windows and post that Measuring your furnishings and using card stock to draw to scale furnishings and cut out the shapes would let move the furniture about on the floor plan rather than hefting actual furnishings.

The wall at the head of the bed is a different color and that accent wall just emphasizes the problem.

I would center the bed between the windows regardless because it will always look imbalanced until you do. If the placement of the light fixture bothers you a lot then replacing it with a flush mounted one can make it less noticeable. Then I'd hang curtains on each window to make them look finished before doing anything else. I'd recommend getting a chenille bedspread in a King size to hide the adjustable bed base and side railings.

Center the bed to windows and not the light fixture and as callque said, change light fixture to ceiling mount, and I think it should be a very large fixture (but not more bulbs) a larger fixture won't get dwarfed by the tray ceiling.

Remove the ceiling light fixture. If you need overhead lighting, a plain close to ceiling fixture will provide light. As mentioned earlier center bed between windows and add substantial lamps on nightstands. Choose bedding you love, then paint the walls to compliment the colors, even if you choose all white bedding.

Also, I just noticed what appears to be a down comforter on your bed. Please get a duvet cover on that soon to protect the comforter.

For sure centre the bed ~ flush mount the light fixture ~ there are some pretty cool fixtures that look like pot lights ~ I feel natural linen duvet cover would be lovely with your bed. I would also paint out all the walls the same color.

This bedroom has a built-in problem: the off-center recessed ceiling is strange. I would look into having that area brought down flush with the rest of the ceiling if it’s financially feasible. Then you could locate the light fixture centered between the windows. Whether you can fix the ceiling or not,
I would center the bed between the windows, paint the walls all one color, and hang draperies. Any art above the bed should be centered on the bed....I have never been a fan of words-as-art, so I would use a painting.

An electrician can center the light for a reasonable fee; one time solution to a problem that will not go away. Consider getting a few quotes.

The bed needs to be centered between the windows a light fixture can be swagged to work if you don’t want to pay for an electrician. Get some actual art for above the bed not word art. I always choose bedding to begin a bedroom decor I like drapes on bedroom windows so get a duvet cover and then choose wall color and drapery.

Center the bed. Either move or just swag the light. As enough light seems to be an issue, add lamps or wall mounted lamps on either side and plug them into the existing outlets.

I’d add a dust ruffle. I don’t like to see the bed frame.

Perhaps if the bed were on the dresser wall it would align better with the light and the wonky tray ceiling. May we see all four walls?

Center the bed between the windows. Replace the light fixture with something bigger and if possible swag it to the right, so it is centered…..

I have a similar problem with a tray ceiling and a light fixture that is centred on the room but not on the tray. First, centre the bed between the windows. Also center the artwork between the two windows. Then, I would put a light fixture that is close to the ceiling to minimize it (like a flat LED). Draw the eye elsewhere with bed covers, artwork, bedside lights etc.

This original post was from almost 2 years ago….surely the OP has finished the room by now. How about some photos with your end results?
