SOS!
We centered the bed against a long wall of the bedroom. On one side of the bed is a shuttered window, and on the other is a blank wall. What should I do to achieve a balanced look?
The room is approximately 11' x 13' with 8' ceilings. The rug is cream-colored with a light brown, gray, and blue design.
As you can see, the room is bare. The bedding is just old blankets.

One of our favorite fixes for window designs such as this, is a wall of drapery.

If a wall of drapery is not your thing, try compensating the space with art and Roman shade.

I would move the bed to the right, leaving about a 36" walkway. Then add bedside tables to either side (I'm not much one for matching, but matching or not will do.)

Similar to Carrie B…center the bed on the wall space.

Is there a dresser or other pieces that need a space? Is the wall opposite the bed a full wall (the one wall we don’t see)? Is the doorway on closet wall entrance into room? I agree with @Susan - If bed stays on current wall, center it between window & corner.

I would play with centering it between the window and the right wall, so the window sets the width of the open space in front of the closet. At the least move it to the right enough that the nightstand is not in front of the window at all. Hang a big piece of art over the headboard.

Here is the layout of the room. The other issue is that the shutters swing inward. The headboard can't clear the shutters.

Do you not like the idea of moving to the bed to the long, window less wall? That seems like such a natural solution! You've got plenty of room on that long wall to move the bed/tables down a foot or so to clear the shutters.

Like this, but moved down a foot or so to make way for shutters. You'll have to walk to get to the other side of the bed, but it leaves windows and closet with plenty of room.

Of course, if you don't like it on the window-less wall, you could keep it where it is, but, as suggested above, just center it between the window and the wall on the right.

You might consider trying the bed on the wall to the right under the window. That could work, or if you decide to leave it where it currently is, you might consider hanging drapery panels along the whole wall to make it look uniform.
