    Default *Need Help with Small room 6 x 17*

    Hey guys...I'm new here and I figured I could ask for some help in furniture placement.
    I provided a sketch of the room here below:


    Basically, I need your help in deciding what I need to fit, what would look nice, and if there is anyway I can make it appear not as tight as it is...

    This is what I mainly need in the room:
    1. Bed (I'm thinking Full Size would do well?)
    2. Computer Desk for laptop, printer, maybe even a for a bigger display (26" monitor)
    3. Small/Mid size bookshelf
    4. Small size couch (maybe a 2-3 seater if possible?)
    5. Small round table -> optional

    As far as TV display goes, I was thinking of mounting it from the ceiling...but I don't know if that would be smart at all or from what angle would be good..

    I was also thinking of turning the door into a sliding door, so that when the door is open, it doesn't waste interior space...

    If you guys could provide a layout of what furniture would go nicely within the room, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks a lot.

    Its 6' wide? Seriously? What you have there to work with is a more of a bowling alley than a room. Is it Aprils' Fool day? How about an actual photo of this 'room'?

    sigh...yes not joking...6' wide. It was actually meant as an extension to the dining area i guess..idk what the previous home owners were thinking but..i have to deal with it.

    I don't have a picture with me now..but maybe I can get one over the weekend. But for now, that sketch will have to do...

    any suggestions? furniture? nice computer desk?...

    * Bed over by the radiator on the wall with (2) windows
    * Nightstand with lamp in the cubby by the closet
    * Loveseat to the left of the doorway - keep it compact
    * TV wall mounted or in conjunction with a bookcase across from the loveseat
    * Small desk in front of the window to the far left.

    Good luck!
