HOW TO DETERMINE THE RIGHT TV SIZE
Start with the Sofa
Measure the distance from the back of the sofa to the TV wall
In this case, the distance is 9' - Determine the depth of the sofa.
Sofa Depth: 36"-42" is recommended. This depth will influence the depth of your media console.
If your sofa is 36"-42" deep, choose a media console depth of
A deeper console will reduce the clearance between the sofa, coffee table, and surrounding space, making it difficult to walk comfortably
TV SIZE RECOMMENDATION
Based on the 9' distance from the sofa to the TV wall, the recommended TV size is 55"-65"
The TV should be mounted at 60" On Center (OC) from the After Finished Floor (AFF) for optimal viewing height

QUEEN BED FRAME SIZE RECOMMENDATIONS
While the room can accommodate Double, Queen, or King mattresses, the bed frame size is key to optimizing space A Queen Bed Frame is the most suitable option for this room
How We Determined the Dimensions
Interior Bedroom Door Clearance
The door swings open 30" into the room. This leaves 30"-36" of space from the door's edge when fully open to the nearest part of the bed.
Space from Wall to Bed
Approximately 36" remains from the exterior wall to the side of the bed
Walking Clearance
At least 30" of clearance is maintained from the foot of the bed to the wall, ensuring comfortable movement around the room
BED FRAME DIMENSIONS
Maximum Queen Bed Frame Length: 84"
Recommended Width Range: 65"–68"
Maximum Bed Frame Size: 68" x 84"
Note: A frame up to 68" x 90" is possible, but this will reduce clearance at the foot of the bed to just 24".
NIGHTSTAND RECOMMENDATIONS
Two Nightstands on either side of the bed
Recommended Sizes: 24"-30" width (maximum) This arrangement provides an ideal balance of functionality and comfort, ensuring easy movement while maintaining a cozy, well-furnished space.
