- Place a low dark-oak queen bed with a charcoal upholstered headboard nearly centered on the head wall.
- Keep a compact walking band beside the window and an open path across the bed foot; add no bench or rug.
- Place a nearly handleless full-height dark-oak wardrobe on the entry wall and keep its front and the door clear.
- Use an ivory linen roller shade at the oak-framed window, with sconces and one ceiling spot for evening support light.
