One wall which is next to the bed can be converted into a large window or not, depending on your needs. This type of arrangement can have much space for storage purposes. You can get a cupboard made inside a wall just to save the area and also add to the look. A velvet carpet can add to the beauty. Such a room must have a very good balance of lights.

Here again, you can fix the cupboard inside the wall just to save some more space. That way, you can manage to hold a small sofa or a couple of bean bags to increase the seating space. While deciding upon the floor plan of your bedroom, you'll also have to think about the size of the bed. if the bed is meant for a single person, then you need not buy a double bed. Also, decide whether you want an attached bathroom. If yes, then some space has to be left for that purpose. I would recommend you to go for an attached bathroom only if you have that much of space available, otherwise it may hamper the look of your bedroom by making it look clustered and messy.

This is a unique plan and can suit your child's bedroom the best. Two single-beds can be arranged at two extremes and the space in the middle can be utilized for a study table.

If you need only one bed, then you can avail the remaining space for some other purpose. You may want to keep that space to place a rack there. You can even utilize that wall to for storage purposes. Fix a couple of shelves one below the other and place some books or decorative items there.

This can be of the best floor plans if you are willing to construct a new bedroom and don't have a properly shaped area. The odd corners in the room can be utilized to hold a triangular seating space. You can place the bed near the wall and carve a window if needed on the other. As you'll have very less area left after this, you can place the cupboard in front of the bed leaving enough space to walk in between.

At times it happens that you feel there's simply nothing you can do with your room. The size of the bed is sometimes very large and hence it is tough to place it somewhere else as may just hamper the entire room. In such a case, you can just push the bed a little to one side and occupy the rest of the space as per your wish. If you have no storage problems, you can place a wooden rack that can hold some good antique pieces or your books. A designer book shelf can also give this room a classic touch. Make sure, you keep some space in the wall for a window, if possible, as it will make the room look bright and full of light. If you want to make the room look even more spacious, you can try placing a folding bed which shall look like a sofa when folded and like a double bed when pulled out.

Budget Management and Some Additional Tips for You

Budget is always a matter of concern for many. And why not, spending a even hundred dollars may trim your budget for the next month. So, it is very important to decide a fixed amount first. Once that is finalized, it will be easier for you to buy things accordingly. My suggestion would be to believe in re-usability so that you don't spend much and yet modify or construct your bedroom. If you have an old wooden cupboard or table, use the same wood and make something new out of it or polish it again to make it look new. But, make sure the wood has retained its quality. Also, for some more choices, you can peep in the nearby houses or look out for architectural design magazines! Once you get an idea of how do design your small bedroom, you can also try out some floor plans for the master bedroom. Once you have decided on the final floor plan, you can think of colors and accessories that can be an icing on the cake for your room. If you have a small bedroom, choose lighter shades while if you have a large area available, choose dark but bright colors that reflect light.

I hope you like the ideas above and implement them soon! And yes, when you finally get your bedroom ready, don't forget to have fresh and lovely flowers there, every day! You'll love the ambiance then!
