Love the posters, colours and furnishing. You have a great versatile space but I'm not sure that I like the dining/kitchen door looking into the sleeping quarters.

I love furnishing a studio because of the open plan layout and I base it on how well I can hide the sleeping quarters or integrate it fully into the living space. The partition gives the feeling that you are trying to seperate the bed but I find the walkway to the kitchen a bit intrusive.

One way to create some privacy for the sleeping quarters is to add a room divider like Ikea's Expedit shelving unit in the middle of your main room, parallel to the closet and place the bed in between there (the room divider will also act as bed head). Draw your the curtain across this space to hide it (this will also lengthen your entry way into a hall way) and turn the space in front of the window into your living room. Using something like the Expedit will allow light and the breeze to flow into your bedroom too OR you can turn it into your dining room and make the dining room into the living room (I love to have a kitchen flow into the living area - great for entertaining).

Oops, I've said too much - I STILL LOVE IT!
