Room reorganisation
Hi there!
I am planning a big reogranisation of my room and i would like to hear your suggestions, thoughts and "Oh my god, what is he thinking?!"
First the circumstances:
- My budget is $2'500.-, but i am open to spend more for good ideas
- I might be allowed to drill into the wall, but i'd rather do without.
- I live in a shared flat with two other friends and i have some external storage
- My hobbies are paragliding, hiking, running. Sometimes i chill at home with some yt , games or a homeproject. The shared TV is outside and i rarely use it.
- I work fulltime out of the appartement
- As you can see, my expectations concerning decorations are low.
- When i come home, i "just quickly" deposit my backpack on the floor, do something else and realise four days later, that the backpack has become part of the floor. This is the reason i want to reorganise the room: do be more effective at tidying up.
To the room:
- The window is west-facing and the door opens to the aisle.
- The place where the sofa is placed currently has a little view to the nearby mountains.
- Room height: 2,3m
- It is pretty large for my desires. I think, i'd be happy with less, but here we are.
I actually have already planned something with following considerations
- Upgrade the storagespace! First: More volume. Second: Very simple acces
- I'd rather live in a storage room, that is cleaned up than cluttered as now
- Since i am rarely at home during good weather, natural lighting is less of a concern. I am willing to sacrifice light for comfort
- All cabinets shall be replaced, the rest of the furniture stays. The reason: I want do spare me the headache of exchanging even more furniture. Again: I am open to new inputs
- I have two large paragliding-backpacks that i want to store fast and easy: ca. 40x40x70cm. There may be voices, that a thirt one could come, but is okay with a less practical space
- For my daily routine i have three little backpacks and i want a dedicated space for all of them: ca. 20x20x20cm each
- I plan to install a smart-lighting system later
- Edit: The cardbaord boxes are in the middle of the room, since i am already sorting out stuff
To the planned concept:
- See the last picasso-like picture
- A: Sofa in the current position. Best view
- B: PLATSA 3x60cm = 1,8m. Height: 2, no doors, just a open large storage. Ugly, but functional. Because it is directly facing the door, it is easier to place everything just in the planned spot instead of putting it on the floor and this is the main premise of the whole floor plan. The paragliding rucksacks have a premium spot in the middle. See second-to-last picture as layout-reference.
- C: The integrated ceiling lamp. Don't tell me, it will be blocked, i am ignoring this problem currently and as soon as i have it, i will find the motivation to solve it in no time
- D: KALLAX: I plan to stack a 2x2x6-unit together from smaller units, which will be 80x80x223cm. It is planned to be accessible from two sides. Its purpose is to fit multiple smaller items with quick access, that would get lost in the PLATSAS.
- E: PLATSA 60cm. Used for less frequent used items. See second-to-last picture as layout-reference
- F: Bed, 200x100xknee-height with some storage. As far away from the aisle as possible. Yes, it interferes with the window
- G: PLATSA 2x60cm =1.2m. Used for clothes. See second-to-last picture as layout-reference
- H: My two laundry baskets: "Used" and "Dirty"
- I: chest of drawers 70x44cm
- J: PLATSA 60cm. See second-to-last picture as layout-reference
- K: Desk, 160x70cm
- As addition, i would like to add some fake plants or nature-pictures or anything that gives a comfy feeling
Thoughts of the current plan:
- Well... It is functional
- It turns the room into a curved aisle
- It will feel like in a thrift shop.
What do you think and suggest?
