Need help doing a Small Bedroom with attached Bathroom

Hi. I will be moving into a new house and my bedroom is small, with an attached bathroom. The entrance door and the bathroom door face each other on opposite walls, and the third wall is entirely occupied by a big window. This leaves only the fourth wall empty.
I need help with the layout of this room, as I want it to look spacious, but will definitely be needing a bed (single) and a big wardrobe (too many clothes!). Please suggest on the layout, I am attaching snaps of the room. Moving in this week, need to start planning ASAP.

Thanks in advance! :)

    Hi, Cornerstone Studio. I will be staying alone, so a single bed should be fine. Length would have to be 6 feet, at least. Width-wise it can be a typical single bed, or slightly wider.

    you can fix cot towards window side it means head should be east side breath 36" length 78" in both sides cot there will be 36" then no problem you can move here and there in opposite side near main door you can develop wadrobe and loft with dressing and study table also you can proceed with L shape wadrobe pls share your location if possible I will arrange to do your complete wood work

    Hi Prasath. Thanks for the suggestions, however I would understand better if you could please sketch and explain about the cot position and the L shaped wardrobe.
    I am renting this flat, so not really looking for permanent installations, but ideas that will help me accomodate my luggage better and have a spacious room.
    However, I would still be glad to have your help. I am based out of Mumbai, please let me know how you can help me out.

    Hi Cornerstone Studio. Thanks for the suggestions. I feel the room will get a little crowded if I place a bed (say, 36"*72") that way. What do you think?

    Wardrobe position is absolutely perfect. What are your suggestions for a mirror/dresser/study table placement?

    Hi Sec Architects. Thanks for the recommendations. I really love the window arrangement, but not sure how to execute that with my window. Is it possible? You can refer to my pictures and tell better.

    And do you think the room will look crowded if I place a bed (say 36"*72") in that direction?

    Hi Prasath. Thanks for suggesting, even I think East-West cot is a good option.

    What do you suggest for a mirror/dresser/study table? Where should I place it? What else could I do to make the room bigger?

    Hello Mohar, You must remember few things while implementing,

    1) Never have a wardrobe depth less then 24" ,especially for men

    2) Always have a little bigger bed rather then standard 3' width,

    3) The planning should have a clear passage for round the corner approach in the room.

    Sending you a rough plan image, if needs further guidance you can surely ask for it.

    Hi Rupal! Thanks for the recommendations, they were very helpful.

    Though I didn't understand, what do you mean by round the corner approach? Also, I will be using a single bed. It will be wider than the standard 3 inches, but in that case should I place it the way you have drawn?

    If you follow a little bit of sun direction, then you will not place the bed in North direction and that limits you with only two sides. The wall where I placed the bed or the one with the bathroom door. You can opt with the bathroom door wall with the bed size 3'6"X6'6" and a side unit.

    Hi Mohar!


    The room is definitely small in space but here are a few tips:

    - Instead of a single bed, you can go for a queen size bed.

    - Placing the bed against the blank wall can help ample amount of natural light in the room.

    - You can also create an interesting headboard canopy with some curtains and fairy lights if you place the bed against the window.

    -To make the room look spacious, add adhesive-backed mirror panels on the washroom door.


    Contact us for any further queries :)

    Best,
