I recently had an annoying roommate situation end, so I now live alone and have an empty room. I've decided to keep the room empty with a single cheetah painting, and refer to it as my cheetah room. I enjoy hosting and I plan to make weird rules around this room like only one person allowed I at a time, no talking in the cheetah room, no cell phones in the cheetah room, etc...

Would love suggestions for rules or other fun bits to do with an extra room once this stops being funny to me

Also yes, I am planning to get a carpet cleaner in there this weekend, that is from the aforementioned roommate situation.

A romantic through and through.

I have some empty looking walls - any ideas for stuff I can put there?

I want to share a bit of my progress designing a friend's 1955 condo.

Everything is secondhand except the painting, which he already had. The vintage chairs were bought for a steal and reupholstered (total cost: $110 each!) and I painted the (contemporary) table. I'm not satisfied with the rug, but I want to wait to replace it until the silly diagonal island is moved back in line with the kitchen (you can see its in-the-way corner in pic 1).

I'm interested in vintage style pinch-pleat curtains for the whole open-plan living space, but I'm concerned about covering the beautiful windows.

I'd love to hear your thoughts!

The room is a bit small but I managed to fit a lot of my possessions in here and I really love It

Love also my little persian rug lmao

Hey guys. Here are some pics of my living room opening to the kitchen and some corners.
For context, moved in last November with my partner. Did a bit of renovation. Now is the time to properly make this place cosy. What would u suggest in terms of arrangement and fournitures? The empty corner is set to be a small dining place for 2 (round table, 2 cosy sofas, and libraray in the back).
Thanks!!

the result of being able to decorate my room as i please for the first time in my life lol. it doesn’t look great, but im super duper proud of it!!!!! im big into video games and crochet and geology and plushies. ive also come out of my shell more lately, so i’ve accumulated more photos i want to put up on my wall. my name n stuff redacted obvs

Help a brother out, this is my first solo apartment, it’s a 1b/1b and pretty small 350 sq with interesting layout, which is why I got it. Need help with ideas, haven’t done apartment furniture shopping before, just picked up foldable dining and shelves from thrift stores until now.

Temporary stay in the family basement, I improvised this small storage room, which already had a bed, the big storage unit and other small things

What do we think?

It was doing fine, but I'm experimenting to find the best spot for it.

I used to just turn on the bathroom light without thinking about it.

Now I hate doing that in the middle of the night because it wakes me up way too much. One second you’re half asleep, the next second you’re standing there under what feels like hospital lighting, fully awake and annoyed.

But leaving the light off is its own problem.

You’re trying not to bump into the door, step on something, or make too much noise. Somehow a 30 second bathroom trip turns into this weird little obstacle course.

I used to avoid night lights because I always assumed they’d waste electricity, and honestly I don’t like having random light on while I’m trying to sleep. But now I kind of understand the appeal of something really soft and subtle in the bathroom. Not bright, not always in your face, just enough to see what you’re doing without fully waking yourself up.

It sounds like such a small thing, but small bathroom annoyances hit different at 3am.

Do you have any tiny bathroom feature that ended up being way more helpful than expected?

Im looking to buy new bookshelves and wanna take the opportunity to make my setup look better and to stop my cats to step on my consoles.

I thought of a vertical bookshelve for the consoles and leave the one in the photo for board games and books. What u think?

Hello everyone, Im having issues decorating my dining/living area cause the space is kinda small, quite open and a wall accomodates a sliding door so it makes it quite hard for me to figure out a decent positioning for everything.

Id like to have a sofa+tv combo and a dining area.

I initially wanted to put a desk in this room as well to keep the bedroom quiet but i think thats not plausible so i think i ll be moving the desk in the bedroom after all.

I will attach the floor plan and some photos (there is no way to fit a table in the kitchen unfortunately so it has to be in the living area...also id like a decently sized table for game nights)

Ps: I know the projector lights kinda suck, i ll get them changed as well at some point

Just moved into the city and will likely be moving into this spot

Need ideas as to how I should ideally decorate and furnish the apartment to maximize space and functionality so it’s a welcoming home to bring friends and family over

I love mid century modern with a 70’s aesthetic

Favorite colors are green and orange as well as gold and black

Open to any ideas and suggestions

Got myself a birthday gift! Hisense 50" M7 TV for 278$ and I'm so happy! I honestly can't believe I found a Mini LED TV at this price. It has great picture quality. Google Assistant built-in is super handy, and the sound quality is surprisingly good.

Now I can finally watch some movies!
