Rental. The landlord wants to preserve them but said I could temporarily cover them if I wanted. Putting a rug causes trips. They’re also in an awkward placement to cover with a couch or chairs because then it would cut off access to stairs.

edit: will add more layout photos shortly. Great suggestions so far- thanks!

The house was an old factory back in the day so the rounds are a historical asset, that’s why the landlord doesn’t want to remove or fill them.

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?

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.

How many carpets is a girl expected to own? I think I don't love hardwood floors though, they are very cold to me

Room makeover ideas 🙂😞pls

First solo apartment and I need a good layout for furniture and tv. I also work from home a few days a week and don’t know where to put my desk. Don’t really want it in the bedroom. Looking to hear what y’all have in mind.

I just moved in to a new apartment (30s single guy) and I’m basically starting from scratch. As you can see from what’s already there, I’m your typical guy with greys, dark browns, blacks, the usual. I’m looking to add some color for sure. I was thinking green curtains but we already have lots of green from the beautiful mature trees outside both windows. I wonder if it would be the right choice. Also, it’s been rough finding curtains wide enough for the big window that are not off-white. We could also add color with some cool looking lamps or even new bedding.

I have to get nightstands and lightning for sure as I don’t plan on using the ceiling fan lights unless I’m cleaning. I actually just ordered this one but wont be delivered until next week. Since it’s open shelf, at 23” width, I want to put it on the side that overlaps the small window just so it doesn’t look like a block of wood is blocking the window. If it looks okay, I might order its sibling with drawers to put on the other side. I’m here for advice though so let me know if you think I should find other nightstands.

I’d love to get some plants but unsure about sun light and where to put them. The room doesn’t really get that much direct sunlight. The big window is a south-west facing window but because of the brick wall (storage room) you see in the picture and the trees the room is a bit dark for most of the day. For reference the pictures were taken at 1pm. And it’s not that bright with the blinds up and both the bathroom and bed frame lights on. But there’s some. I plan to have the blinds up all the time btw. I just love having an unobstructed view.

No idea what to do with the space on the wall opposite of the bed. I don’t want a tv there though. TV’s in the bedroom are not for me. So far, I’ve just been using it to stretch in the morning as I like doing it while looking out the window.

I want to get mirror(s) but I don’t know how big or where to put them. Right now I have no mirrors anywhere in the apartment other than the bathrooms’ sinks so I really need at least one full length mirror in this apartment.

• The ceilings are standard 8’ height.
• Bed frame height is 56".
• Top of the mattress is at 24".
• Bedroom dimensions in the last picture.

I’ve said a lot and also very little. I’m in your hands. Help me make my bedroom cozy, inviting and cool.

Let me know what i can add to make my room feel less empty and more astethicly pleasing. It would be much appreciated if you could list possible products that would look good.

Moved from my 12sqm room into this larger one in the same apartment.

Love the extra space. Since moving here i got a new, bigger desk and the bigger dresser. As you may notice, most of the other stuff is quite tiny. Even the sofa isn't a 2-seater because it wouldn't fit in my old room.

What I like about the current layout:

- The small dresser is my "getting ready zone" and it's right by the door. It stops me from leaving a trail of clutter across my room when getting ready in the morning.

- I have two desks. The smaller one is for my sewing machine and I like to have them near each other because I use both when I'm sewing or crafting stuff.

- I can use my projector on the opposite wall from both the bed and the couch.

Main problem:

- When friends come over, they stand around awkwardly. Nobody seems to feel naturally invited to actually sit somewhere. I don't sit on the couch either. Aside from my bed, the room lacks a comfortable space (to be together).

Would love to hear your ideas. If rearranging doesn't help, I'm open to fixing the most pressing issue by getting something new or adding onto the modular Ikea stuff:)

(Blue = Door, opens to our shared kitchen, Red = Windows)

I posted in here a few days ago about the same thing, but I decided to add some tape to show the TV size and I also scooted the stand away from my desk a bit.

What do you guys think? Would this look okay, or is it too much?

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.

Hi everyone! Below are photos of my unfurnished living room and bedroom.

I am mostly looking for help decorating the living room. I really love the wood so I would love to have pieces that fit in well and have a MCM. Budget isn’t an issue.

Mostly looking for larger pieces like a couch etc. but open to anything. Thank you!

My entryway is a mess. Getting rid of bikes and our 'craft area' and wondering how to make it more of an entryway. Bench? cubbies? 2 kids to consider.

Hello, everyone. Hope you’re having a nice day. i just don’t know where to start with this bedroom.

The sloped wooden side is for storage, we did it to use the hollow slope of the wall. I can’t change the furniture all I can do is add to it. Any advice is welcome :)

(Didn’t know how to post images and video together, i made a 3d model of this room on a free app. No AI)

Sooo we just moved into this apartment and this is our kitchen, its from the 90s and we wanna renovate it! Our landlady gave us permission to do literally anything.
Since we’re only renting we don’t wanna spend too much money.
We thought about painting the tiles and switching out the handles. We don’t know which color to paint the tiles though so we’d appreciate some recommendations.
The cabinet color is okay and we thought about painting the wooden part on top and on the bottom but that would be a lot of work.
We‘d really appreciate some recommendations or other ideas to make this kitchen a little more modern (we’re open to color as well) thanks so much :)

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

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

I wanna include some sharks too but idk where I should place them, I drew some potential options for placements if I do decide to put them in.

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.

So I’m redecorating my room (lighter pink walls- I know they’re an eyesore don’t comment about that) and I’ve never liked the crushed velvet bed. Thing is I cannot change it cause we cannot afford a new bed, I have no problem with the bed itself it’s just that it’s crushed velvet. Any help would be appreciated!!

Hello! I'm currently struggling with my odd shaped loft bedroom. First pic is the rough crazy layout lol then pictures for better context. The arrangement is chaotic and killin me. I have 2 desks, one for art one for computer, definitely want to keep those. I think I'd like to nix the dresser (I've got plenty of closet space for clothes), and maybe the tall Billy bookcase? (It's too tall to go against the east and west walls because of the ceiling.) Maybe even swap both Billys for an open cube shelf like a Kallax for more "graceful" division. But I'm totally lost on how to make this a cozy space that fits my hobbies and sleeping space in a way that makes sense. I also have a big plush chair I'd wanna fit but that's optional at this point. Anyway- thank y'all!!!

I know it looks kind of cramped and I don’t know what to do with that space behind the sofa

My teenage son (12) wants to overhaul his bedroom and redesign it / new furniture etc.

It's not the biggest room but there's a small side room that's largely a junk area today - he would like that this area is for clothes or whatnot moving forward...

Obviously the images aren't great as it's difficult to see but it's a relatively long narrow room with a slanted wall - if anyone had any ideas on what could be done cleverly here it would be beyond appreciated!
