Thanks momofthree for oyu answer, and the hutch can be attached on top of the desk or it can be taken off. Thakns!
Is the hutch attached to the desk or is it freestanding on top of the desk? I ask because you may want to consider the placement in terms of what may happen if the hutch fell (say in an earthquake) if it is freestanding. You don’t want it in a position where it can land on your bed. That said, if the hutch is attached (or can be attached) to the desk, can you position it so its back is against one side of the bed? Generally the backside of a hutch will not look great, so you’ll need to drape some fabric down the backside and maybe hang a few photos on it to make it look like a wall type room divider. Does that make sense?
Not knowing where your windows are and what type of light you have in the room makes this difficult, but I am just trying to throw out ideas.
The desk with the mirror will likely carry similar weight to the other desk, so you may want to use the two to balance each other in the room. Maybe one on each side of the room.
Another thing to consider is that you may be able to remove the hutch from the desk. Can it stand alone maybe at the end of the bed? Sort of as a foot-board. Desks can look nice as nightstands if you have the space for it. If the bed is too low for a nightstand that high you can get "bed raisers" for like $15 from any Linens N’ Things type store. Maybe even WalMart or Target.
The logical place for the nightstand is next to the bed, but you may be able to use it elsewhere. Perhaps near the door as you enter the room. Again, this is difficult as we do not know the layout or size of the room. Where are the doors? How high are the windows? How tall is your furniture? All of that.
If you use the nightstand but it doesn’t fit into the arrangement in the room, can you use it in your closet?
I may be throwing a lot at you here. If you give any further details, I may add more to these ramblings.
Good luck.
