I know 😭 I'm having the hardest time bc my bedroom I can tell was built with two twin beds in mind and not a bigger bed. So there's windows in aggravating places and I'm like ughhhhhh
@@gameseeker6307 Everyone is on a limited budget, lol it's a business. Developers carve up floorplans to maximize profit, not to make a good product. As long as nothing is glaringly bad, it gets made.
@@pepperypeppers2755 I suspect it’s not even floor plans are profit-motivated, so much as there’s no incentive to plan carefully. And certainly not to spend money on a talented architect/designer.
I have a room in configuration 2, tried your solution and I’m happy to say I’ve slept almost a full 8 hours in years. It’s so nice to see the bed when you’re coming in, it’s a beautiful piece of furniture and the room feels tidier, more sensible, and more spacious at the same time. Went ahead and got a Poang chair that wouldn’t have had any place in the former configuration, to make a chill out/reading zone in the bedroom too
I watched this to see where I should place my bed since my sister recently moved out and now I get my own room. The second room was probably the closest layout to my bedroom and surprisingly I had already placed my bed on that exact spot! I just wanted to see what other options are out there but I’m glad I chose right!
In the UK I think the energy flow is a bit different. It’s common for doors to open the opposite way, so a door swings into the room still but the hinges are on the other side so the opening is near the corner of the room. I think this might be to prevent drafts from sweeping into a room but also means that the room is more private - if the door is ajar, outsiders can’t see into the room. My bed is against the same wall as the door but I don’t feel exposed because as the door opens it provides a screen to the bed
I just moved my bed into the corner of the long window like in the first example, the only difference is we have a short window along the head side of the bed, it’s like a little nest. It opens up the space so much that more and the energy is wonderful 💗 I’m so grateful for your channel and love your positive energy! 🪴 🛏️
Weird question, but does anyone else actually feel anxiety and vulnerability when he puts the little head of the toy bed near the door?!? His room models actually bring me along on an emotional rollercoaster. I can feel exactly what's he's sayingabout the energy/calm/vulnerability/command of the different positions he demonstrates.
Oh yeah, for sure. I can vividly imagine what it would feel like if I had been "forced" to keep my own bed in that position. I grew up with people barging into closed bedroom doors without so much as knocking, and not being able to lock it, aka regularly having intruders. I very quickly learned the positions that made me feel safest/gave them the hardest time seeing me and me the best time seeing them as they entered. I shudder to think what it would be like to go back to that with the poor positioning he shows with the "bad" examples. And then rejoice that I am out of that situation AND it gave me accidentally genuinely helpful knowledge, once he shows the good examples, which are often what my gut feeling says is best.
In the last example, I was really looking forward to see how you would have placed the bed if the window was diagonal to the door (Just like in your second example! Small room but two doors and a window). Hope to see more such videos! Thank you!
so in general my room is just not a good place to sleep in but ideal to work at. no wonder i feel better sleeping on the sofa in the living room uninterrupted than in any of our rooms xD i think the aircon being in the middle on two big windows is a bad placement. my room is a horizontal rectangle. the door is placed by the width facing the length which is where the two windows are placed at. then from the left are two big built in cabinets and a dresser in the corner beside a window. so anywhere i place my bed will be tricky because it's alway busy and near the neighbors so i had one window blocked (that's facing the door) to block out their voices a bit. idk if i properly described the layout of my room. but i love your videos~! love the positive energy you bring to any type and kind of bedroom~!
Awesome video! One thing I haven’t seen in your videos yet are closets and closet doors. How can I rearrange my room that has a doorway, window, and sliding door closet all on different walls?
Closets always pose a challenge! They mean that there is less wall space to choose from. It depends on if you can move them or if they are fixed. If fixed, then we just need to work round them
We emptied the closet and put the head of our bed in there to get more space. It is very cozy with space for small bed sizes tables. Now our quandary is what kind of wardrobe to get (we have a closet in a guest room for temporary storage.
@@DearModern for the 1st example, where would you put a study + wardrobe + mittor? And only 1 plug point is available which is in between the door and window wall
@@DearModern0:34 my room is like the first one but we have a huge 3door wardrobe that takes up the whole wall on the right hand side. And is a bit smaller then the room shown. It seems like there is no way to feng shui the space 😢.
The first layout is the exact one for my master that we’re renovating and I considered placing the bed the way you mentioned but that wall is where the front door entryway is and I thought it would be too loud whereas the wall with the bed facing the window and door on the left side is against a hallway.. sometimes I doubt my decision but I can’t move it bc the headboard for the bed is built in.. 😅
Thank you for the information. I needed help with what is the good bed position for me as my room layout is 2nd picture but I have full wall fixed wardrobe where the windows are and windows on the wall opposite to the door. Also where would be better to put study/work desk. It seems don't have the command position to take here.
Do you have any ideas for a rectangular bedroom with 2 doors(1 at the breadth, 1 at the length. Positioned close to each other in a corner) and full windows for remaining walls that does not have a door?
I came to this channel to problem solve my bedroom and the first room in this video is literally my room except there is a closet on the same wall as the door and there is a vent near the window which everyone in my family says not to cover so I wanted to see where the best spot would be so now I know where I should put it, thanks
For the last sample you showed, if there was wardrobes on both the bottom and right wall, I currently have my bed placed exactly where you said it should be but I have a long table and a bedside table to fit in. What is your recommendation? I currently have it on the right side of my bed both units attached, but my back will be towards the wardrobe where the door is.
hi, I would highly appreciate if you could help me where to place my keyboard (piano), desk, bed and closet with my small square room with two windows and a balcony. The door is exactly the same as you showed on the first example but instead of the window its a sliding door balcony. A window beside the door and another one to the left wall, and a balcony across the door. it's rlly driving me crazy. Thank you!!
Dear Cliff. First of all, I find your way of explaining why you place what in your videoes inspiring. My wife and I bought a house 2 years ago, and she doesnt find peace in our bedroom, and i hope you maybe have time to give a short tip. The layout is almost like your last example with the 2 doors and a window but 3,5 m long and 3,35 m wide, but with a door to the living room on the lower right wall, the door (to our bedroomtoilet) on the bottom wall at far left of the wall, and the window is centered in the left wall with 2 large closset covering the entire upper wall. We have been sleeping under the window, which i can see, isnt ideal at all :( . Would it be better to have the bed in the upper left corner with the foots towards the toilet, or would it be better to place the bed at the middle of the upper wall with heads towards upper wall and then closets at left and right wall? Hope you have time to answer, and have a great day :)
Hi, I enjoy watching all your videos, very interesting. My bedroom is the same as as the last bedroom plan, except it's very small, only 3m by 3m. Opposite the window is the sliding door wardrobe. I'm sharing the room with my sister, so there's 2 single size bed, which I have no choice to place it at the window with head facing window. From most of your videos, it's better to have solid wall at the head side. Is there a way solve my case? So far, both me and my sister find the layout fine with us. Just draw up the blackout curtain at the window if we need to sleep. Also, I have place a 1.4m tall divider at the bed end of bed directly to the door to block the view of door.
I have a dorm that looks just like the last room but it's mirrored upside-down. Door to the north leads to the hallway, door to the right to a private bathroom. The whole room is really narrow, so northern and southern walls are closer together. If I had to describe its width, I'd say you could fit 2,5 single person beds lengthwise next ro each other. There's a large window area on the west side, going all the way from floor to ceiling with a window door north of that window. How would you arrange the room?
My new bedroom will be like the first one but with a random ”box-wall” to the right and I will be sharing it with my sister. Any tip on how to do it with two single beds? With a closet and a desk?
Can you make a video dedicated to furniture pieces or other types of items we can add if we have to put the bed, desk, etc. in less than ideal positions? Similar to the last example where you block energy by placing a wardrobe in front of the two door walking space.
I have a room with the closet and bathroom door on one wall, the main door literally bumps into the closet door on the other wall and windows along the other wall. I’ve changed my room around every year I’ve lived here and nothing makes me happy. I wish you could do a room like mine. I love watching you arrange the rooms and describe why/why not to put something where.
Hi thank you very much for you vids there WOUNDERFULL My room is your first example, but I have a chimly sticking out in the right hand corner of the room so it would mean my bed is half on the back wall..the left corner is to small for my bed.. it's it ok to put my bed on the back wall with only half the support. The other wall has a toilet behind it. And I can't put my bed under the window I get really depressed the last time I put my bed there. My bed is now in the middle of the roomI feel stuck please help me..
‼2:41 你好 Cliff, I was wondering if you could tell me if the up-left position, with the bedhead touching the upper wall, would be a good position. I'm asking because I have a room that resembles this one you're showing, the only differences are: - the door is on the left side and doesn't open towards the bedroom; - the window is smaller, making the left side of the wall with the window LARGER, as large as a EU king size bed; - My room would have to be used both as a bedroom for two people (loving eachother) and two desks because we are two dirty-poor students. If you ever happen to answer, 谢谢！！☯And thank you anyway for all the amazing content; you're precious
Do you have videos for working with 2 twin beds? Our has the door is located in one corner of the room, the closet door on the same wall as the entrance door, and the window across from the closet
hi cliff, great video! what if in layout 1 you have a built in wardrobe on the wall you would place your bed? it's brand new and we can't justify taking it down :(
My room has a door, closet and window all on separate walls; my only options are to either have the bed in front of the window, or to have it in line or in front of the door :/
Hey! Thank you for this video. I have a quick question. My room layout is exactly the same as the 1st figure/drawing, but the only difference is that I have a sliding mirror door for my closet on the same side as the door. Any tips on where I should place my bed?
Hi I have a 15x15ft bedroom where 2 walls are dominated by a patio door on one wall, and 2 reach-in closets on the other as well as the entrance. I use the reach-in closets for a tall dresser in one, and a vanity in the other. My queen sized bed currently faces the patio door and is adjacent to the door. My 2nd wider dresser is on the wall opposite to the door and adjacent to the bed. I also have a makeshift desk next to the patio door. I know I have a lot of room to work with, but it feels like I'm not optimizing the space as much as I could. Everything feels thrown together rather than cozy. What should I do?
Hi, can I ask for room layout 2, what happens if there is a toilet door opposite the window? The toilet door will be facing perpendicular to the bed, which is in a commanding position. Thank you!
I love these videos!!! My house needs so much help! Would you help me even if we live far from eachother? Maybe I can draw you the layout of my house and you can show me what the best way to place things would be!
i have a problem i have a door in every wall or heater and no usable corners due to the dining room layout but it was converted to a bedroom for me, any tips?
How about if my door and my window were on the same sides? My bedroom is 12 square meter and I only have one window and a door facing our balcony since it's the only way out. My bed is about 2m x 1.3m big and I get stressed where I'm going to put that.
Ugh this is the closest video of all your vids that gives me some kind of guidance but I still question my beds position. Your second example room is my layout except the command position you suggested is the closet area so currently I have it against the window, with curtains and a solid wood-cushioned headboard. My window is not necessarily on the ground floor but a slightly elevated position as I have a few steps to enter into my home. Did I choose the right position?
Where would I put my bed in a room like the first example. But the one window is two windows and the middle window section you have drawn in is wall between two windows. There is also a closet on the rest of the wall with the door?
Hi, my bedroom is small around 3m x 3m. In a room there are 4 sides, say a, b, c and d. The door is on the corner of side A along with a solid wall. On side B wall there is a two-door closet. On side C, there is a window. On side D, there is a door in the middle for the toilet and shower. Where is the best place to put my bed? Thank you. RJ
Thank you so much for this excellent video. In the best position for the bed I have a solid wall. I also have a solid headrest. But it is a victorian house and inside the wall is a chimney space. Can I still put my bed there? Thankyou!
So I finding it very hard to know where to place my bed, I have low curve roof on one side and opposite is the door, with balcony door and open cupboard
The first example is very close to my bedroom space except that my bathroom door is just further beside to my bedroom door. My bed is currently located on where you recommended it however, I really want to place my bed in the wall with the bedroom door :((
For the first room, I did arrange my bed in that position as it feels best but I'm still stuck with how I should put my desk. Since I like to do art, I need a lot of sunlight but if to put the desk near the window facing the wall, the positions are kind of vulnerable to the door. (The desk has to face the wall because I have a desktop.)😢
Is it the same for a kids bedroom? The rooms are really small in my appartment and, in the kids rooms, I put the bed against the wall to leave more room to play. Is that bad?
Could you tell me the best place to put a twin bed and a large L desk in the first room if there was a closet near the door on the bottom line? I currently have my bed in the top right corner facing left (head is on the same wall as the door) and I have my desk in the bottom left (both outter parts of the L are against the wall and the one on the wall with the door just barely doesn't touch the closet.
I'm thinknig about putting the head of the bed flush with the wall on the top side and turning the desk so the L is in the top left but rotated right so the majority of the desk wouldn't be touching the wall but instead it would only touch the edge of desk to the wall. The only problem with this would be not being able to get into the small corner in which the desk sits. The desk would also have its back against the window so the back of your head would be open to the outside (though I'm on the second floor and no one can see me with the blackout blinds).
We have a bedroom like the first one, sort of. The window is on the same wall as the diagram but centered and not that wide. There is a second door at the top-left of the diagram leaving 4 feet between door and the top left corner of the room; this door leads to a bathroom. This door creates a diagonal pathway to the main door. Can't figure out a good bed placement at all.
Hi ! I did compass on my room the first image is example of my room that u illustrate. but my headboard is facing at north is that okay? Or i can put the headboard at the window which facing at south ?
I have trapezoid shaped bedroom. Gaashh i cant do anything with it!! . Would you please help me ;) it has a large window + toilet . I'll send you a pics of it if you required. Thank you so much + I'm such a big fan of what you do mate 😆
Does the door's direction of opening matter to having the bed against the door's wall? The only solid backing (not in a corner) I have is the wall with the door (both accross and diagonal walls have center windows and the wall in front is a make-shift open closet). But the door is in the bottom right of the room and opens towards the rest of the room instead of away towards a wall like these. What do?? 😅 Recreation: ------🪟------ I I I 🪟 I _I I I ---------🚪--
wow, i gotta compromise my bedroon then!! XD details: french window on south wall (full width), toilet to north wall with its door on NE corner facing southside, and entry door on north-west wall, facing east. so only option seems to be the west wall or east wall but the catch : catch 1- bed head board on west wall means entry door is just to the left side of my head catch 2- bed head board on east wall means entry door is towards my feet side (which is better) but the toilet door is couple of feet to right side of my head
