By replacing the walls that separate the bedroom from the en-suite bathroom with glass you make the room feel more spacious and more airy. If you’re worried about privacy you can install curtains.

An Original Headboard Design.
In the case of the bedroom, there’s not much you can do in terms of customization. The headboard, however, is a piece which you can personalize. So choose an unusual material, an interesting shape or come up with your own ideas for its design.
