Help in arranging furniture for a teen

10 months ago

I’m in need of ideas in styling a room that wouldn’t look clustered. Can you give me ideas to arrange a queen/double bed, nightstand and a table in this room?

    I need a bit more info. I see walls that can easily handle a bed but what else neds to be in there ? Waht is the table for ? A girl or a boy? What does the bracket meausrement mean ?We need more info for sure. If the room really is 11 x12 I would choose a nice twin XL. If possible show the measuremetns odf everything walls, windows clset that helps with furniture placement .

    I like this layout. But I feel like if I put the bed in front of the window, it will be almost close to the door opening. And people crossing the hallway will be able to see the messy bed

    What are the actual measurements? Draw out noting door and window sizes and positions. What size bed? What size dressers/desks are you hoping for ? Will there be a tv? Can you post a picture of the room so we can see the windows and how high off the floor they are?

    I am not great at laying out furniture like this but there are some absolutely wonderful designers here who are. They will just need a bit more info to give you the best solutions.

    If you are planning this space for a long term ,it may be worth it to consider the personality of the occupant .

    You may want to explore feng shui principles relevant to that person.

    This method covers very many steps related to safety,practicality,and avoidance of clutter.

    You will find placement suggestions that optimise usage of space while promoting a pleasant ambiance.

    May be totally worth it to explore the possibilities with your teen...method covers best

    paint colors,directions for bed placement,decor,all attuned to that particular person.

    There are many books available,adapted to western living.

    Maybe bed on left with one nightstand, dresser opposite with a chair next to it by window and desk in cubbie area. You’ll have to measure if/what works though. No matter where bed is, it‘s going to be seen.

    Thought I would clarify. Trying to design space for a teen boy. The table will be used for studying and will have a laptop

    For a teenage boy, I would probably do a a full-size daybed up in the right hand corner, the desk in the lower right corner and a dresser across the room by the closet, leaving the middle of the room more open.

    We had 3 boys the rule was if the door is closed it is your room if open it is mine so start cleaning. We now have international students and mostly boys so the same rule is in place . The student we have now does a bunch of 3 D printing and all kinds of electronic stuff so we arranged his room to have a work table a twinXL pushed into a corner and a strorage unit at the end of the bed next to the work table . Every student we have had over the last 14 yrs has used their bed for homework so we stopped having desk in their rooms which BTW are a tiny bit smaller than what you have . My advice ask him what he needs to be able to live in there since that is aslo what they do

    GREAT rule Patricia! My offspring all had bunk beds so I made it as easy as possible for the beds to LOOK mostly ok by getting huge quilts all they had to do was pull up and flop over everything. I'm not a fan of closed doors so preferred the beds made and if htey didn't care who saw their personals--well that was on them. W/O measurements I can't tell but given teens I would puit the bed to the right of the door. Give him space to use the room for more than bed hanging out.
