40d:Bedroom

A bedroom is a room defined from a bed. A dwarf will usually store their belongings in their bedroom when not carrying them. A dwarf will claim an unassigned bedroom after sleeping in it, but they can be manually assigned. Married dwarves will share a bedroom, even sleeping in the same bed; children will also share a bedroom with their mother until they grow up.

Once the economy starts, dwarves will get unhappy thoughts from not having a chest in their bedroom.

Military and bedroom-less dwarves have the option of sleeping in a barracks. Dwarves will sleep in a bed that is not defined as a bedroom if no alternative is available.

It is best to place bedrooms far from workshops and other work areas due to noise.

A group of bedrooms together are commonly called living quarters, or living area. Enterprising players often try to find a design for their living quarter area which is either very space efficient or easy on the eye. This subject haven't been tackled much yet but you can see the different designs most often used by players of older versions ^{vDF 0.23.130.23a and down} here. Most of them are still applicable on the newer versions ^{vDF 0.27.169.32a and up} but could possibly be heavily modified to benefit from the new Z-axis stairs placing.
