What furniture actually fits in a cabin (without overcrowding it)
Aug 20, 2025
You might be surprised at just how much you can comfortably fit inside a RoomMate Cabin. With sizes ranging from our Standard (3.6m x 2.4m) to our Extra Large (4.8m x 2.7m), there’s plenty of flexibility to create a practical, inviting space.
From cosy essentials to clever layouts, here’s a look at how you can style and furnish your RoomMate Cabin without it ever feeling cramped.
Standard Cabin (3.6m x 2.4m)
Our standard cabin is a versatile space that works well as an extra bedroom, a home office, or even a rumpus room.
- Extra Bedroom: A queen-size bed and small dresser fit comfortably, making it the perfect spot for a teenager who needs their own space.
- Home Office: There’s plenty of room for a desk and chair, plus storage like a filing cabinet and still space left to personalise with a plant, rug, or artwork.
- Rumpus Room: Whether it’s a lounge area with a TV and gaming setup for tamariki, or a calming yoga studio just for you, this cabin gives you the freedom to make it your own.
Large Cabin (4.2m x 2.4m)
Our large cabin gives you more room to work with than you might expect!
- Extra Bedroom: Easily fit a queen-size bed, two side tables and a dresser – ideal for hosting whanau or guests.
- Workspace: A great option for a small team of 2–3, with enough space for desks, chairs and even a mini snacks fridge!
- Business Space: If you’re starting out or don’t want the overheads of a big commercial lease, a large cabin can be just right to bring your business or entrepreneurial dream to life. Depending on the type of business, we’ve often seen a large cabin fit a table, 2 chairs, and storage space.
Extra Large Cabin (4.8m x 2.7m)
Our extra large cabin gives you the most space to work with, offering endless possibilities for how you use it.
- Full Bedroom: Comfortably fit a queen-size bed, desk, lounge area with a couch, plus plenty of storage – everything you’d need for a self-contained, cosy space.
- Spacious Workspace: Perfect for larger teams or those needing more flexibility, with room for multiple desks and even a meeting table.
- Multi-Purpose Hub: Combine work and relaxation in one space, set up an office during the day and a lounge area for winding down at night.
