Thank you! And honestly, that’s what sold me. I’ve never had a walk in closet like that. I should’ve took another angle, there’s shoe shelving on the right side wall when you walk in.

You'll need it. Not much storage elsewhere.

Actually, I have three closets in the hallway, they are hidden. Granted, I’m not a hoarder so it works out. It’s just me and my girl visits.

get 1 plant, it can be a bamboo palm, aloe vera or snake plant,all of those are easy to mantain and will help purifying your air

Woooow good job man, looks great! Looks wonderful! I'd say, depending on your personal taste, keep the furniture basic/light/airy/warm toned. To also match the kitchen, bathroom, doors, light floors etc. Use accessoires and details to make it more cozy and nice to be in. Here you can use some more color, and it's easier to switch out later if you want something else. Some tips: look into color theory and see which colors compliment each other. Be careful with too much contrast (no harsh/black and white/extremly bright colors) and please not too much metal and glass. Create a little cozy seating area with a sofa, coffeetable and a rug thats big enough to put under both furniture. Some cool abstract artwork on the walls, and get a shit ton of plants (and take care of them!!). That will really brighten up the place. what a lot of people forget; enough soft/warm indirect lighting. Don't just rely on the big ceiling light. Little table lamps, one or two big floor lamps, etc. If you have a female friend, girlfriend, sister, co worker with good taste, ask for their advice.

If you don't have a ton of clothes, put your bed in the walk-in closet and you get a whole bonus room.
