Okay, I am at home with a cold so being my restless self I decided to get starting on fixing up my bedroom.

I am reasonably happy with the rest of the rooms, But I am fresh out of ideas in the bedroom.

Some images, and no I dont sleep on the madress like that, the cover is in the washmacine.

Exluding a new bed for 14.000kr that I will buy soon.

The dimensions are 3,3m * 2,9m

I'd put a desk up against the wall to the left of the window (maybe one with a corner extension so you have a larger workspace around the PC), turn the bed 90° and put it on the far-right side of the windowed wall with the your head against the outer wall, invest in a nice fuzzy carpet, maybe repaint the walls in a soft yellow to give the impression of more space...and you should definitely replace the curtains with shorter, less transparent ones.

Last thing first.

The curtains have a extra set behind them that I can close for almost complete darkness.

It is only at night that I do that, I like light.

Moving the desk and the bed, Think I will do that.

Fuzzy mat... Naa dont like them to much dust.

I'd still consider new ones, though. The current set look like they were made from leftover stockings.

That's what I thought, too, but they do add bit a of homeliness that a hardwood floor just can't replace.

I'm a sucker for cozy rooms, though. If you prefer utilitarian or minimalistic design, ignore me :)

What style are you after, anyway?

I am more of a minemalist, less is more.

What style.. Do not know really perhaps simple elegant and cozy.

Which direction does the window face and what hours of sunlight do you get up in the frozen north?

South-southeast, going by the clock.
