Get rid of the triangular shaped closet by the bathroom. Then at about 8 feet from that wall between bathroom and living room to about 8 feet towards the window create a new wall lining up with the bathroom wall. It will meet the black square wall thingy by the balcony in the lower right corner. The closed of room can be the baby room. To allow light from seeping through maybe put in glass in the top end of the walls at above door height. You now have a separete sitting area by the bathroom door, and a large dining area still in the kitchen.

Runwithscissors was on to something. Would the long end of the bed fit the wall of the closet space opposite the bathroom door? You'd likely still have enough room to get in the bathroom. Alternatively; splash out a little and have somebody move the sink to the opposite wall and create a door where the sink is now. The bed then goes in the nook where the bathroom door is. By putting three identical bookshelves on either side of the new bathroom door, and on the short bit of wall where now is the short cabinet, you make that entire wall flow as one, acting as an architectural structure between living room and bathroom and bedroom. Make sure they are high, as far to the ceiling as possible or budget allows (Billy's from Ikea are great for this) You now have the entire kitchen and living room to go wild with a small table (not just a bar) and a sofa. You might even consider putting the fridge by the actual kitchen and then restoring the closet to it's once full glory. This will also allow you to get a bigger table as the wall where the fridge is now, will be closed off again. Good luck! The space has great bones!

Oh oh... am I the only one who doesn't like it that much? It looks great, don't get me wrong. But I feel it no longer has the class it had before.....

what a shame of that old dresser! Not sure I like this too much.....

That bassin/sink (sorry, English is not my first language) is very nice! And I really like the clean white look. Maybe I would've left a bath in though, but that's because I myself love baths.....

Too much to mention. Our narrow stairway and front door in Amsterdam meant I had to put my mums old kitchen cupboard/shelves in storage. In Amsterdam one sometimes finds houses with windows that come out to allow bigger items being pulled up and moved through there. The shelves didn't fit though....

Oh, and I hope me mentioning two sites won´t get me blocked? Just realised it can be considered spam?

Loving this!! Love American houses anyway. So clever with space. But not quite getting the garden....
