2mx2m room help

8 months ago

Can anyone share what they've done with a 2mx2m room to give me an idea as to how it could look?
I have this space downstairs and would like to use it as a music room with an upright piano or a reading room but I can't work out if it'll be too small.
The below is an idea of what I like but I have no idea how big these rooms are.

http://houzz.com/photos/3642990 This link kind of demonstrates the use of mosaics and the mirror idea I thought may be cool. Obviously they are vertical but I think it would work either way. Any pics of your tiles? I have seen your other post and know your suite is 'traditional' but another thing to consider I guess is the cost of the mosaics. £££ using lots may mean a big dent in your budget.

Melissa, when I said footboard, I meant this. It has a portion of the bed that extends beyond the mattress edge. You posted a bed that had something at the foot section of the bed. By platform, I mean a bed that has a hard area and only a mattress on it. Like this. It does not extend beyond the edge of the mattress, but does not have a box spring. It is also lower to the ground. The picture you posted was a high profile bed and box spring. It was not on a typical bed frame. A standard bed frame, used with box spring and mattress looks like this. Virtually invisible and does not extend out beyond the mattress/box spring set. That being said, I'd recommend you get a headboard that is not too big for your space. Neither in height or depth (distance from the wall). I would also not get a mattress frame that extends beyond the size of the mattress. Sorry to have not been clear before.

I think the only place you could put a tv is probably the corner by the window...over the fireplace is probably too high. a walnut floor and new fresher paint colour would be lovely, would you consider painting the skirting boards and fireplace white or off white to modernise them a bit? we've painted the skirting in our living room (also a walnut floor) and it looks so much better than before. (Have yet to get around to the rest of the house!!)

Thanks Sarah! At the moment the room doesn't exist, but I'm looking at all options to convert our garage. Utopia would be to steal 40cm or so to make the entrance way wider and then used the remaining space for a utility, small WC and then this small music/reading room. I think I'm trying to squeeze too much in, but I want to make maximum use of space.

You could also have the piano somewhere more sociable (if you or someone in your family plays) and shelve one side of the room and have a comfy armchair and a floorlamp for reading. I would keep it very open (i.e. underfurnished) and use it as a sort of retreat.

i like the idea of using the garage for a utility space but are you sure you don’t need part of the garage for storage? Is the conservatory a useable space all year round?

We're going to get a shed for storage and also try to convert one of the side alleyways into storage too. The conservatory is pretty useless. Our plan here is to extend across the whole of the back, replacing the conservatory, but everything is so very expensive at the moment so that's not going to happen for a while.

I'd love a little secret room which, as Isla mentioned, we could use as a little retreat.
