Hello,

My partner (32) and I (31) are moving into a semi-detached house this summer. The semi-detached house was inherited.
We are now considering how to arrange the bedroom. I took a photo of the floor plan along with our current ideas. We think that a corner wardrobe solution would be best to maximize the available space in this room. For the wardrobe system, we want to use Sinfonie Plus with sliding doors from Staud – maybe someone here has experience with that? The floor is beech laminate, which we plan to keep for now.

The bed is a solid wood bed in white, with a country style. There are pine trim boards at both the foot and head ends in natural pine. We have two white bedside tables from Ikea’s Hemnes series, also made of real wood, and a Hemnes dresser which currently doesn’t have a place yet (W 57cm (22 inches), D 39cm (15 inches), H 130cm (51 inches)). My partner would ideally like to have the two dressers I currently have placed in the hallway moved into the bedroom, but I don’t think that will be possible.

Does anyone have ideas on how we could arrange the room cleverly?

Why is the bed 225 cm (89 inches) long? Is that due to the mattress, or is there a large headboard? Is it possible to reduce the length? Because having about 70 to 80 cm (28 to 31 inches) of space between the bed and the partition wall is important.

And yes, I can definitely imagine the room much better this way compared to the wardrobe positions you have considered so far.

The mattress is the standard size of 180cm x 200cm (71 inches x 79 inches). It is a solid wood bed, with slightly curved headboard and footboard.

Perhaps also something like this:

3D kitchen with wooden furniture on the right, countertop, window on the left

Floor plan of a room: work surfaces on the left, shelves on the right, door at the top, green partition wall in the middle.


The window position on the right is somewhat inconvenient.

Hello, we are now favoring the following solution: On the right side against the wall, a 336 x 221 x 68 cm (11 x 7.3 x 2.2 ft) wardrobe with 3 surface-mounted lights, one for each sliding door. The other wardrobe would then be 223 x 221 x 48 cm (7.3 x 7.3 x 1.6 ft) with 2 surface-mounted lights. Our idea is to reinforce the back panel of this wardrobe with, for example, an 8 mm (0.3 inch) wood or chipboard sheet from the hardware store and then paint it. Possibly add a wall decal as well. The room already has laminate flooring installed, and we are concerned that building an additional wall might permanently damage the floor covering. Since the floor is level, a good wardrobe should be able to stand freely in the room. If necessary, it could be fixed to the side next to the window on the wall. A large wardrobe should never stand directly in contact with the wall anyway, right?

Yes, you can do the countertop like that. And yes, the countertop can also bridge the gap between the cabinet and the wall on the side closer to the wall.

Is the second cabinet with a depth of 48 cm (19 inches) enough for you? I would split it up as follows:


About 120 to 150 cm (47 to 59 inches) deep for the first part, and then the last 100 cm (39 inches) deep so that the window can still open.

This way, you definitely have enough storage and still a calm, nicely designed sleeping area.

Is it possible to move the window in the dressing room a bit further to the right, so that it is centered between the rows of wardrobes?
That way, you could also place 60cm (24 inches) wide wardrobes on both sides.

I would also position the door centered between the rows of wardrobes.
