I know nothing about feng shui or any rules regarding placement of furniture. To me it's just about utilizing space and avoiding empty areas that can't be used for anything. The room itself is pretty big, big enough for a bed and some kind of desk or bedroom vanity, so you should try and incorporate both in your plans. The way you have it laid out now seems to result in a large open space in front of the closet which seems like it can't be used for anything without blocking the closet doors, maybe this isn't the case but it looks that way to me.

If the closet could be moved under the stairs (not sure if it can or not) then the bed could fit where the closet is. This leaves a great area for a desk or other bedroom furniture while keeping things a little more open.

In regard to window over the bed, just seems like a waste to me. Basement windows are ground level so people outside can view in quite easily and with the way the sun never seems to go away in the summer in this country you're going to have to block the window with blinds anyway. Just don't see any advantage for natural light over a bed. Would be better to have the window over the desk/vanity area where natural light is more useful and privacy is less of a concern.

Can't, not enough room there

Thanks for your input about saving space. So i came up with 3 layouts so canreefer can help me pick out what would be your favorite

That could be a fantastic view from the porcelain throne =)

lol, well there will be a screen door there but sure you can view from porcelain throne if no one around :-)

Here's my take on your bedroom given your options.

It's your option 1 but I moved the closet into the next room. That's your post in red. You loose a little space in the living room but I think it works better. The extra space in the wall could be used as a linen closet or some sort of built in cabinet or bookshelf.

Queen size bed with headboard and side table. Plus a dresses, L shaped desk and bookshelf seem to fit and work nicely. A wall light on a three way by the bed would be a nice addition as well.

Here is what I would do... http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...54243_0001.jpg

Leaves a decent closet size, room for a desk & dresser. Be a good kids room, I would use a double bed, even for a guest room.

Interesting idea, unfortunately, the other room is my home theatre which i want to have 14' from the screen to sofa. Also i may not have good location for a TV for this bedroom. What about option 2? what do you think?

Thanks, hmm two closet instead of one. Interesting idea as well

Option 2 is ok but it's a bit awkward to move around the bed to get to the closet. Maybe with a double bed it's OK as you'll have 24" but a queen would be too tight. That's also provided the measurements are right, if you have to add 4" of wall to either side it makes even tighter. It also just looks strange IMO, I don't think you should ever have to walk around furniture to get to key locations within a room.

Is there a reason you need 14' rather than say 12' for the projection? I'm putting in a 92" screen and I think I'll be sitting around 10' from it in my basement. In any case I'd still do option 1 but move the closet a little further from the window so it's not right up against it.
