Authors comments
The user is extremely satisfied with his bedroom since he has to spend a considerable amount of time in bed. He can see out the large windows. There is plenty of room for him to be able to move and for assistants to be able to help him. There is a place for socializing. Guests have a cozy sitting area with armchairs. Dinner can be served to 4-5 persons.
The user planned four electrical outlets on either side of the bed, though he could use even more.

In use since
