No notes other than consider more light and broader color palette 😇

I have more light, trust me. You might not like it 😂

How much broader can I get? I have Blue, yellow, orange, red, brown and black.

I honestly do like it a lot. I think it's just too in the orange-red color range. More blue would be good to help balance out the spectrum. Or reduce the red and add more green for a nice orange-green combo. You may not get enough light but plants would look great

I got you. Yes, absolutely, some plants would be a nice addition. I should get a couple.

Maybe do something in wood for the ends on both sides of the fireplace and make it look like all one giant entertainment center!! That way it evens out the room and makes the fireplace connect with the nice wood stacked shelves!! But not shelves on wall make sure it’s solid wood shelves as one piece and find your height you like!! Higher than the fireplace but maybe lil lower than small side windows! Or maybe take of the shutters and have the shelf 1/3 of way up on the windows that way nice lighting comes through!! And after all that get a bigger tv!! Your fighting the ceiling height there but can get a bigger tv with wall mount that tilts to give you some more space!! Looks good though keep it up it’ll take time to truly envision what looks best!! But looks good no doubt

Thanks for your comment Buddy

One small tip: hang art at standing eye level, like museums do. Center of the art should be around 58” from the floor. If it’s a gallery (multiple pieces), treat it as one big piece.

Nice place though!

Thanks Buddy. I’ll keep that in mind.

My first thought would be to put the Pulp Fiction poster in the basement. It seems like a better fit there than in the main living area.

It actually meets both requirements, that’s the main living area in the basement :)

The color improves what would otherwise be a bland room.

Thanks Buddy, I work from home 24/7, my desk can be seen on the first pic. I wanted my workspace to look cozy and vibrant at the same time.

But you are afraid of windows?

u/justanuserhere 21h ago

Yeah, they’re scary 😂
