There are two lamps - where are the sockets?

If the sockets are behind the chest does the chest then sit proud of the wall?

The sockets are behind the dresser. There come out as far as the skirting board. X

Would the plugs necessitate the dresser being pulled away from the wall to accommodate them?

We do need a couple more pictures of your room to see other possibilities for you to place your bed. What you have above it is just far too small. I know you'll get a lot of suggestions to put a sunburst mirror above it. Either that, or a larger piece of art. Maybe two smaller (but still larger than the current one) next to each other. I have a dormer and have the bed opposite of the window. But our dormer is wider, so maybe in your case you won't have enough space to walk around the bed? If you post more photos, use the attach images button that appears when you click on a comment box under here.

Thank you for your comment, The fireplace looks so bare, originally there was a huge surround and I couldn't believe the size of the actual grate when it was all removed. I had wondered if I should have had the piece of granite hearth extended to the wall and built a narrow bookcase by the chair. I will definitely get a mantel. No tv yet, don't know where to put it,? There is a tv point in the corner to the left hand side of the couch, just under the window. Thanks again,

Room layout - ideas?

Take out sofa, use beanbags and those blow up seats for their friends. Coloured rugs for tumbling and crawling on. Supersoft teddy bear blankets so they can curl up. Add in one of those soft blanket boxes for toy storage and so you have somewhere soft to perch when you are with them. Paper half way up the wall in the wall paper that kids can draw on, so they can decorate in whatever colour they like and you won't mind. A childs lift up desk, bookcase and some crazy lamps in weird colours. Then close the door, collapse on the sofa that you have moved, breathe a sigh of relief and thank your lucky stars that you have another room for the kids to go to. (Grab wine and pretend they aren't yours for half an hour! ;-) )

It's tough without photos or plans. I prefer to put outlets in the baseboards they are unobtrusive when not in use. Make sure switches are closer to door frames and not in the middle of a small space of wall. For a floor outlet. Lay out how you would have furniture in the room and plan floor outlets to be under a chair or sofa. Be sure to have switched outlets in areas where you may want a lamp to be turned on easily. Dimmers everywhere. Think where you would want switched lighting. Think about how you would use the entire space...where you would have furniture, electronics, lamp lights. Be sure to have outlets for a major electronic bank (such as TV etc.) (computers, printers, other electronics) in these areas, be sure they are on a separate circuits and nothing else is on these circuits. Put yourself in the house with all its furnishings and see how it all works...this is how it makes it all easier. Be sure cold air returns are not in the middle of ceilings or walls in major rooms, try to have them located to unobtrusive areas (halls & walkways & between spaces). Don't let them tell you they cannot. We designed our home, did the entire electrical plan, and we were the general contractor. Because we planned so well the process went smoothly. And we never had a "why didn't I think to do something different" moment.
