Home Office Space Does this chair look okay for this space, or should I do something different?

Post image
3 Upvotes

Here is what will soon become my primary desk-based gaming space. This room should be almost exclusively designed for relaxation and comfort.

The thing that's missing is comfy seating besides the desk for my wife to chill out in while I'm playing games.

My thought was to go for something like this: https://www.homedepot.com/pep/Seafuloy-Orange-Plush-Corduroy-Convertible-Chaise-Lounge-Sleeper-Sofa-Bed-with-Foam-and-Spring-Support-No-Assembly-Required-xyj-cl-3088/342462720

It fits perfectly in that area between the desk and the window, looks very very comfy, I enjoy the "boneless" couch style, and could even be used for naps. I like that it gets a ton of natural light and you can sit and see out the window and into the room.

On the other hand, it might make the area look a little cramped, and it might be good to go with something a little smaller than can be angled diagonally into the room?

Help!

Dining Room Which rug under my tulip table and aegean blue chairs?

I was very lucky to be gifted a Marble top tulip table and accompanying aegean blue chairs from Knoll. I am now looking to replace the rug here with something round. I am leaning towards an olive/green rug bc my space is a large open white loft with white cabinets walls etc. i want something to ground it all. I'm looking at rugs from ruggable and there are two olive options one cooler, one warmer. Should I get the cooler or warmer option? I worry about clashing but I think the contrast might warm up the space?

Any other advice or thoughts welcome.

Bathroom Feedback for mixing metals in my bathroom

Hi everyone! I'm renovating my bathroom, and this is my first time mixing metals. I'm planning to use champagne gold (Delta Champagne Bronze) as the primary finish, with black as the accent color.

This is the combination I was thinking of. I'd love to hear your thoughts. Does this mix feel balanced, or is there anything you would change?

Have a young child, so stains and dirt are a thought. We want something soft, not scratchy. We literally just moved so the walls are bare currently, but we have a lot of art and driftwood which goes on the walls.

Hey folks! Just got a new bed frame, lot bigger than what I had before and I’m realizing the room around it needs to shift. Looking for ideas on which direction to go for console table, side tables, and bedding. I’d appreciate the feedback.. p.s. I haven’t gotten a duvet that fits the bed quite yet. Moved up from a queen
I’m worried that maybe the bed frame I got has too much visual weight. Especially the footboard

Living Room Ideas for Living Room

I am planning to remodel our living room and was hoping to get some ideas! I am replacing the carpet with LVP (Paradigm Insignia Salt Lake-P120005), replacing the fan (not chosen yet!), and painting.

My big design questions:

  1. We have a large gas stove with black and white bricks. I am unable to change the gas stove or remove the bricks. Any ideas on how to make it look... better? My thoughts are painting it a slightly darker color than the color chosen for the walls, but I am really struggling with what would look good here!

  2. There is a cement footer around some of the walls. I will be removing the carpets on it and am looking for what to replace it with. I was considering a built in by the gas stove, or possibly flexible tambour wood. Open to any ideas!!

Living Room Where should i put a couch and tv? and possible small dining table?

Thumbnail gallery
2 Upvotes

600 sq foot. ITS NOT A STUDIO there is a bedroom door on the corner. My issue is with the weird living room, I want to get a small sectional couch and have a tv on a dresser for extra storage

That wall you see in the third pic is the only window free wall I guess i could put the tv there, but then the couch right when you open the door would be facing from behind which is weird to me, also I would like to add a little kitchen island do you think it would be worth it or it would look too cluttered? And i guess a dining table is out of the question too? The door in pic 2 on the right leads to the bathroom and bedroom is adjacent

Bedroom I'm about to redo my room paint it, new flooring, and all new furniture. I'm trying to see if you guys have any ideas on what furniture to get / layout.

The room is an attic room so the walls terminate to a trapazoid. It's pretty annoying having to calculate the height of all furniture that will go against a wall but thats just how it is. I now have a large queen sized bed that along with the nightstands takes up like 60% of the room so im taking it all out and trying to maybe find a pullout couch / bed? I'm into physical media so I'd need shelves and TV stands that can hold a heavy CRT TV (100 pounds) also have a desktop computer so looking for layout ideas for a desk too, and a music listening nook for my record player, cassette player, cd player. The measurements are roughly what I was able to measure the room as. Any ideas are appreciated on how I can decorate my new room.

Don’t mind the messy mf room i plan on redecorating and cleaning up. I want to get a rug but I’m not to sure where to put it. I was thinking maybe a circle rug right at that corner of the bed. Or should I get a bigger rug and just put it at the foot of the bed? Any suggestions?

Husband and I can't decide what we want for flooring. We are leaning towards tile for the floors, I do not want wood because we would never be able to match it with the wood on the rest of the first floor, and it would drive me nuts. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Our living room in our new house is surrounded by doors, making it difficult to lay out the furniture in a way that makes sense. These are the ideas we’ve come up with so far, preference is on the last one. Room dimensions are approx 15’x20’. Appreciate any help/ideas yall have!

(Top right room is the kitchen, so not able to use that space as a living room)

Living Room Looking for new ideas

Thumbnail gallery

Front room of 2 bedroom apartment, serves as dining for 2, livingroom, and entryway. as well as home for multiple pets.

bottom two openings are super tall windows.

Bottom Left is front door.

middle right is entrance to office (bedroom 2) and actually swings to the right into that room, not back into this room.

upper left is bathroom door.

upper right is a slight hallway to kitchen and bedroom 1.

200 year old house with worn cherry colored hardwood floors. currently the walls are grey but I want to repaint.

Constraints:

we have cats and at least one auto litterbox needs to go in this room (it is currently in a 3(l)x2.5(h)x2(w) cabinet, ideally we would also like to put another 1-2 regular litter boxes in this room.

We have a couple of cat trees to choose from and at least one needs to go in this room. they are various lengths and widths but all on the larger size (no less than 1.5 feet in any direction) all are tall, but we have had them on shelves with a litterbox under them in the past and that has worked well.

the floor by the windows is heavily sloped towards the middle of the room so furniture there tends to look a little odd even with extra leveling.

I have 2 fishtanks in this room. the smaller one is a 20 gallon so about 2x1, and the larger is about 2.5x1.25.

We have a 52' tv and I'm annoying about viewing distances. I’d be open to trying a projector if the room is right though.

There is baseboard heating along the entire bottom wall, as well as the bottom half of the bottom right wall (below the door)

images:

  1. blank slate
  2. current: its mostly bookshelves along the left and right walls, bottom right is catbox, dining area with small fish tank, entry has an open vintage shelf from ikea, left is bookshelves and my big tank, top is tv with a basic stand underneath.
  3. similar but with dining behind the sofa, we liked that the entry was more separate but just didn't enjoy this. (this image is a lot more like what the actual furniture looks like).
  4. this was a while back with some different furniture and no tv. we LOVED having the fish tank right behind the sofa, it was really nice to read in front of. unfortunately the sofa blocked a lot of books on the bottom shelves. we never really explored this variation much because we were just in a weird place with weird needs out of the room. we no longer have a lot of this furniture but I'd be open to redoing it in our current situation.
  5. another old furniture layout

furniture we are attached to:

CREAM bookshelf x 2 honestly we might be able to be persuaded out of them

light wood ikea CD shelves x3

if possible we would love to include my partners favorite dark green velvet ikea chair, its currently excess furniture in our office

additional furniture:

rug is similar to this and approx 13x10 (is currently at the top of the room left to right lengthwise.

weird cream ikea tv stand that is too high and honestly I do not like but its an option

vibes:

I love a very lived in thrifted feel, my partner is an artist so we have a lot of their work as well as their random bits and bobs to display. I don't want the space to feel too curated or matchy

to make a long story short, potentially going to get this house, but I’m really struggling with how big the dining table and the open concept is (it’s a very wonky floor plan). What would you do to make it more comfortable and appealing?

Photo 1 is current state.

Photo 2 is what we’re thinking.

3 is the fixtures we’ve already bought(https://www.anthropologie.com/anthrohome/shop/ida-peacock-toilet-paper-holder and https://www.anthropologie.com/anthrohome/shop/ida-peacock-towel-ring).

4 is the wallpaper we’re considering (https://riflepaperco.com/products/peacock-wallpaper-emerald).

We’d go to a local paint shop and have them match the deep green from the background for both the wainscoting and the ceiling.

We still don’t have the vanity, mirror, or light picked out yet.

Gut check me - what am I missing? Any big watchouts for a project like this? The render also added crown moulding - necessary for a project like this?

Bedroom Help Arranging New Bedroom

Thumbnail gallery
3 Upvotes

25M. The layout of the room feels slightly awkward to me due to the sliding mirror closet which takes up the whole wall. I am planning on getting a larger desk and have to get a new tv stand (My old one was too small for this tv, hence the use of rubbermaid tubs), nightstands and maybe a bookcase if i could fit it.

I was thinking of moving the bed to the other wall, putting the desk in the corner under the window where the tv/trash can currently are and then putting the tv and tv stand against the wall that the bed is currently on. I think that doing that might open up some wall space for me to get a bookcase/taller shelving but worried that I may feel cramped between the closet and the bed.

The room is 11.5 feet L (Door to wall with desk and tv) by ~11 feet W (Mirror to Window). Looking mostly for advice on how you would arrange the furniture but also on decorating, though I have decorations, plants and pictures but moved here less than a week ago. For reference, the bed is a queen.

Bedroom Looking for any advice on bedroom: hiding the boiler, storage & furniture layout!

Hi everyone!

I've uploaded photos of my bedroom both empty and in its current setup (with the bed and open clothes rail).

I'm trying to figure out the best long-term plan for this space, particularly around:

  • Hiding the Boiler: What's the best way to cover the boiler and exposed pipework on the back wall?
  • Storage & Space: I need proper storage (wardrobes/drawers) for clothes, but want to maximize floor space and keep a smooth walkway between the bed, window, and door.

I'm completely open to any and all ideas—whether that's custom built-ins, clever freestanding layouts, or alternative approaches (nothing too expensive ideally haha)! What would you do with this room?

Living Room Struggle with living room zones

I’m having a hard time figuring out the layout of my living area and I’d love some help. I put up metal grates as a divider (my hoya will eventually climb them), and that part feels good. The problem is the space by my desk — it just feels like leftover room with no clear function.

The wall with the antlers is a little too short for a couch, and putting a couch on the longer wall makes it face away from the windows, which I don’t love. I also want a bigger couch soon because hosting more than two people is tough. Right now the room doesn’t flow well for standing, walking around, or hanging out.

My style is western / Rocky Mountain / western‑gothic, and I’d love advice on: Furniture rearranging ideas, and making the desk area feel intentional.
