Plus, if you’re hoping to invite a partner into your life, you'll want to make sure there is space for both of you. In any case, a bedroom should be a place of rest, not work, and you shouldn’t have a desk in your bedroom if you want to optimise the space for good chi. If you find yourself sleeping directly opposite the door, you can add a footboard to your bed to increase safety and security.

In a Brooklyn apartment reimagined for a single mother and young daughter, Brett Masterson was left with limited space when he divided the original bedroom to create separate rooms for each family member.
