How do I choose the best use for my bedroom alcove?

To choose the best use for your bedroom alcove, first measure its dimensions—the width typically ranges from twenty-eight to forty-eight inches, with depths between eighteen and thirty inches. Consider what function your room lacks most: storage, a vanity, a reading spot, or a beverage bar. Pick one primary use to avoid clutter. Match furniture depth to the space—ten to twelve inch shelves, eighteen to twenty-four inch bench or clothes rods. Also assess lighting and electrical needs. Trying a digital room planner or mockup tools can visualize options before investing.
