Problem
When dressing happens right in the bedroom, clothes and belongings spread across the room and unsettle its calm; the bedroom turns into a thoroughfare of wardrobes and laundry baskets.
Solution
Give dressing a small room of its own close to the bed, with clothes stored within easy reach, so the bedroom itself stays free of that clutter and keeps its calm.
