Planning a 10×11 Room
10×11 is the 'large second bedroom' of American apartment listings, the bedroom over the front door in Cape Cod houses, and the master bedroom of many 1950s British semis. One hundred and ten square feet is enough for a queen with both nightstands, which is the threshold buyers feel even when they cannot name it.
Nearly square (1:1.1), but the 132-in wall is the one to give the bed: a queen with two 24-in nightstands needs 108 in and leaves 12 in per side to the corners, while the 120-in wall opposite still has room for a dresser and the door.
What this size is best used for
- 1Queen bedroom
Queen (60×80 in) plus two nightstands on the 11-ft wall use 108 in, leaving 12 in per corner, and 120 − 80 = 40 in at the foot, which a 20-in dresser would halve to a 20-in gap, too tight, so the dresser belongs on a side wall.
- 2Bedroom with a full bed and a desk
A full bed on the 11-ft wall (54 in, 39 in per side) and a 48-in desk on the 10-ft wall at the foot leave 120 − 75 − 24 = 21 in between the desk and the footboard, so the desk goes beside the bed instead, in the 39-in strip minus 24 in of depth.
- 3Home office and guest room
A 72-in sofa bed on the 11-ft wall and a 60-in desk on the 10-ft wall leave 132 − 72 = 60 in for a 36-in bookcase, and the sofa opens 60 in into a 120 − 36 = 84 in room.
Queen bedroom in a 10×11 room
Furniture sizes are the same true-to-scale pieces in the RoomSketch3D catalog; clearances are what is left after each step.
- Queen (60×80 in) headboard on the far 11-ft wall, centred; two 24-in nightstands take the wall to within 12 in of each corner.
- The foot zone is 40 in deep across the whole 132-in width. Put nothing on the near 11-ft wall except the door, hung at one end so the 32-in arc stays in that zone.
- On the left 10-ft wall's near end, a 42-in dresser (18 in deep): it sits in the foot zone's corner and leaves 40 − 18 = 22 in to walk past between it and the footboard, so shift it 18 in along the wall toward the door instead, where the bed does not reach.
- The closet on the right 10-ft wall, near end, 24 in deep and 60 in wide; its bifold doors fold flat and never enter the 36-in strip beside the bed.
Mistakes this size invites
- The bed on the 10-ft wall for symmetry: 60 + 48 = 108 in leaves 6 in per corner and 132 − 80 = 52 in at the foot, better for a dresser but the door on that wall then hits the nightstand.
- A dresser on the foot wall: 40 − 18 = 22 in is not a walkway, so in a 10×11 the dresser lives on a side wall or the bed becomes a full.

Lists like this can't tell you if it actually works
"A 3-seater sofa fits" is true — until the door swing eats two feet of wall, the radiator blocks the long wall, or the walkway to the window shrinks to 20 inches. The only way to know your layout works is to see it: draw the 10×11 ft room, place real furniture at true scale, and check the flow.
That's exactly what RoomSketch3D does. Drag-and-drop true-to-scale furniture pieces into your exact room and walk through it in 3D — before you buy, move, or assemble anything.
