The one thing I agree with Franklin Lloyd Wright is that bedrooms should be small, since they are relatively single purpose rooms. Maximum the rest of the house, but minimize the bedroom.

FWIW, ancient Chinese believed the same. Also, don't have mirrors, don't have sharp edges in your bedroom. It harms your "qi,"

In Beijin's Forbidden City, in spite of the huge size and ornamentation of the whole imperial complex, the Emperor slept in a room <10 sq.meters.

I wonder if Wright picked up that notion in Japan?
