I don't know if this is a feng shui thing too, but I sleep best in a room with my feet facing the direction of where the sun comes up (unfortunately that is the spare room and not the main bedroom). Agree you should walk in and see the foot of the bed.

we do in guest bedroom,, but not sure will go with colors I have picked out, and the great room is a vaulted ceiling ....I guess we will just have to see...our house is being built and will be very open..not alot of wall space.

If you are a vastu believer, don't make the pooja on the west wall. Pooja should be on east or north wall of the house. Don't cut your store room as you definitely need one , rather shift it on the extreme upper side of the master bedroom. Don't provide an extra door in the bedroom for the safety point of view. As I said, by giving store room space on the upper side you get the symmetry instead of the protruded wall at the entrance of the master bedroom. Bed heard board is the best in South, then East, then West. So go for first two if possible. For further queries, you,re most welcome.

Hi Ashwini, A loft bed in the master bedroom is a good idea when - 1] Your kids are too young (4-10 years) 2] The room has a high ceiling 3] The room is big in size (at least 12' x 15') If all these conditions are met with, you may go for a design like this - In the above picture, the fan is at a reasonable distance from the loft bed. The beds do not eat away the bedroom space. Also later on when the kid's grow up, this space may either be dismantled completely or closed from the front to act as a storage space. On the other hand, kids tend to grow up fast and their needs change accordingly. Hence, investing in a permanent arrangement such as a loft bed might not be such a good idea. Options such as a sofa cum bed might be helpful in such situations - It is extremely functional and useful. 1] Your kids can use it for as long as they want 2] It can be easily shifted to other rooms 3] It can also work as an extra bed in the future (when your kids grow up and there are guests at home) As far as our opinion is concerned, a separate room for the kids is always a better idea - 1] They learn to live independently 2] You maintain your privacy as well as theirs 3] A separate room means more space and less clutter 4] Both the rooms can be designed as per the specific needs of you and your kids to result in better functioning spaces rather than just piling on and cramping one Hope these ideas help you with your design. All the best! Regards, RnD Atelier Nagpur
