If you've ever wondered how to arrange furniture in a square bedroom, I got you covered with five different bedroom layout ideas!
These floor plans are based on a 12' x 12' square bedroom, but they could easily be modified slightly for a larger or smaller bedroom.
And I know…there are a ton of different bedroom scenarios – maybe your closet is huge, maybe you don't have a closet at all… whatever the case, I hope to give you some insight and ideas on how to layout your own bedroom.
Before I go into detail about the five floor plan scenarios, I thought it'd be good to give you a couple of quick tips beforehand-

Tips for arranging furniture in a square bedroom
- Start with the scale of the furniture. First, figure out what size bed would be best. I think this is where most people go wrong, and they automatically assume they can fit a king-sized bed in every room. Unless that's the only piece of furniture you want in the room, you gotta be honest… what size bed will actually fit?
- Leave at least 3' of room between the bed and a wall or closet. If there's less than 3' of space, then you might want to think about a smaller bed.
- If you don't have room for a nightstand, think about putting a simple end table next to your bed. This could be a glass table or even a small stool.
Ok, ready to see some floor plan ideas for a square bedroom?
12×12 bedroom with wall of closets
In this scenario, there's a closet wall and multiple windows, so I placed a queen-size bed in between the two windows to center it in the room. I placed a round bedside table to the left of the bed, just to break up all the straight lines. And on the other side of the bed, I opted for a small plant so the closet could be accessible. Plus, a pop of greenery is always a nice touch.
And on the shortest wall, I placed a dresser. If you don't need the extra storage, you could opt for a chair and table for a cute reading corner.
12×12 bedroom with a wall of windows
In this scenario, there's a full wall of windows and the client requested a king-size bed. There are two empty walls, which you'd think would be great for placing a bed…. but since it's a king-size bed, I placed it on the window wall. This made the room feel larger since you wouldn't be walking directly into a bed as you entered the room.
12×12 bedroom with one small window
In this bedroom, there's only one window, so looking at the plan, it's pretty easy to figure out where the bed should go. Hint: the biggest, most unobstructed wall!
To balance it out, I added two nightstands on both sides of the bed and a dresser by the door. If you need more storage, you could nix the plant and opt for a longer dresser, instead.
12×12 bedroom with two doorways + a closet
Just like the other scenarios, I placed a queen-size bed on the largest, most unobstructed wall, and balanced it with two bedside tables. In between the two doors there is a small window, which is perfect for a dresser or console table.
12×12 bedroom with one window wall + a wall of closets
Can you guess where the bed should go in this scenario?
You got it! I placed the bed on the biggest, most unobstructed wall. Are you seeing a theme yet?! The bed should always go on the biggest, most unobstructed wall.
After the large pieces were in, I filled the small void in the corner (by the closets) with a small plant. You could also do a display pedestal, or even put a bench under the window.
There you have it- five bedroom layout ideas for a square room. Pretty simple, right?
