My University room layout. Help Plz.

Thomas. PLease. · 9 Oct 2007 at 14:35

Hi there, around a 6 weeks ago, me and 5 other people moved into a nice three story town house in Plymouth where i am at university.

I have kept the room arranged as i found it but i don't like the layout, and i can't see any real way of changing it as there isn't a whole lot of space.

Would people be able to suggest some ideas to me? i've drawn a plan and taken some pictures, any advice is greatly appreciated. thanks. tom.

I think:

is going to be your best friend at this time, measure all the stuff in your room - recreate it in sketchup, and start arranging

I'd put the bed under the window in the middle and the desk over by the plugs.

Just watch your head

yeah I realise that but a shortage of good quality speaker cable prevents them moving far from the amp.

WOW!

them speakers big enough??? lol.

Would the desk fit under the window? Leave bed as it is!

That floor plan makes it look bigger than it seems in the pictures.

Can you cope with cold? Put bed by the window, desk where the bed is so the light from the windo falls behind you. I find beds take up far too much room in bedrooms so I usually shove it in any corner I can find.

LOL, mad at speakers crew

Looks like you are stuck with that kind of layout, due to the size of the bed and desk............... unless you blocked the door up and used the window to get in and out

Gaz1988 · 9 Oct 2007 at 15:42

can you turn the bed the other way ?( so its running parrarel with the radiator) then move ** desk along a bit

your chair doesnt look comfy also*

In your drawing whats the orange box in the lower right corner, as you can't see it in the pictures. Can it be moved what ever it is?

Hi there, its a small chest of drawers, which can easily be moved.

In the fridge :rolleyes:

Put an industrial sized fridge in the middle of your room and fill it with cans of beer.

Then you are a bona fide student.

personally id put the bed in the corner next to the window and the desk against the wall with either speaker at the sides. The speakers look crud how they are now and wont fill the room with sound

nice speakers though
