Confirm mattress size
Allow for the actual frame dimensions, which may be wider or longer than the mattress.
Plan Around the Bed
The bed usually determines the rest of the bedroom layout.
Protect clearances
Keep usable walking space and make sure drawers, closet doors and bedroom doors can open.
Balance both sides
Matching pieces are optional, but practical lighting and surfaces should be available where they are needed.
Storage Without Clutter
Storage should reduce visual noise rather than consume every available wall.
Dressers
Measure drawer extension and avoid blocking the route between the bed and doorway.
Wardrobes
Check ceiling height, door swing and anchoring requirements before delivery.
Under-bed storage
Useful for occasional items when access is easy and ventilation is not restricted.
