ᐅ Dividing Bedrooms: Efficient Planning of a Children's Room and a New Bedroom with a Hallway
Created on: 29 Dec 2025 16:07

CarlottaOur former bedroom is going to be divided. However, we are uncertain about the best approach. The children’s room (with access to the balcony) will be on the left, and a bedroom on the right. Both rooms should be accessed independently, without one being a walk-through room. We will probably need to create a hallway to provide two new doors/entries. We would like to make the children’s room as large as possible. We were thinking the bedroom could be about 2.70 meters (8 feet 10 inches) wide to fit the bed—is that reasonable? Would it make sense to make the new hallway slightly larger to accommodate a closet (e.g., 100 cm (39 inches)) there as well? What would be a good and modern layout; what are your ideas? The room has a ceiling height of over 3 meters (10 feet).
Thank you very much for your help.

Well, isn’t something missing from the original floor plan to make adjustments to the hallway?
Maybe you should try sketching your idea instead of just describing it, so it’s easier to see how you envision placing the bed, closet, and access.
If the floor plan in post 1 is supposed to be sufficient, then go ahead and sketch your idea.
... and please don’t post random 3D renderings without a dimensioned floor plan as a demonstration of whatever. Sometimes all you can do is shake your head. 🙄

Is it practical to fit the bed in there? What are the bed dimensions?

What about the bathroom? Should the door be bricked up? Or is it meant to be the child’s private bathroom?
If all family members are going to use this bathroom, you should share the whole floor plan.
Otherwise, I assume this door is not important and would separate the rooms like this:
This is the floor plan of the level – however, I don’t understand how this relates to or is needed for my question @kbt09 ...
And number 2, my "idea," without any "3-dimensional pattern pictures without a dimensioned floor plan." These should only help answer the question "Where should which furniture be placed." Bed 2 x 2 meters (6.6 x 6.6 feet), the rest will be newly purchased and custom-made by a carpenter. The idea: A wardrobe in the hallway would, for example, store towels and bed linen, accessible to all family members.
