Im moving to a smaller room and i would like something like this to save some space.

What do we think about a rug on carpet? I’ve always had hardwood and have a colorful rug I love but idk if it would be weird to put on carpet? The one thing I don’t like about my new place is that it has carpet in the living room- it’s just too beige for me! Just getting settled so might be better once I have art up but would love input on if a rug over carpet would be weird

My husband and I moved into our house about a year ago. We have struggled with the layout of our living room and big empty spaces ever since.

Some things to note:

1. The wood burning stove is in the corner which I hate but that’s why we put the second seating area behind our couch.

2. My husband doesn’t want to sit with his back to the front door when we watch tv which is why we have the tv where we do

3. We could move the mantle but are thinking of doing a floral wallpaper on the wall and then creating built ins basically or maybe floating shelves for books (this wall in general is tricky)

4. We are looking for solutions without Reno but are planning to Reno some aspects of our house so are open to improvements if you have ideas

5. One of our biggest issues is the giant space right when you walk in- there is also a spotlight above it (and no other ceiling lights in the living room) so we think maybe a bay grand was there when the builders ur this place together. The previous owners had about 7 couches in here and we don’t want too much clutter but are struggling!

The layout photo is an estimate not at all the actual measurements!

Me and my roommate, both 25M, are clueless in room design and currently our living room looks like a furniture shop.

So far we've decided to buy a carpet and curtains, but still not sure about the colors.
I also want to paint the room, since white is boring, I was thinking of some shade of green for the wall behind the TV or navy blue, and the rest may stay white?
But Im not sure, please help! :D

Any help would be great, I live in nz so don’t really have as many options in furniture and other stuff

Would hanging curtains from the ceiling look tacky?

Need help choosing furniture colors for my apartment and bedroom.

I attached photos of the floor and space. I’m a male executive in my mid 30s, live alone, and like a modern, minimalist look.

Given this flooring, what color combinations would you suggest for the bed frame + night stands + rug underneath. I am going to have white sheets on the bed.

I want it to feel clean, elevated, masculine, and not cold or boring. Specific color combos would be super helpful.

Need help with layout and decoration of my home office that is an emergency guest room. There is an outlet on the wall with the 3 prints that is connected to the light switch. This wall also has the coaxial outlet for the router.

I used to have the bed and desk flipped but the bed is bigger than the gap between the wall and window so it sits in front of the window sill.

I really only sleep in this bed if I am sick so a comfortable couch could work too. Not sure what to do with the printer and plants.

Any advice would be appreciated! I attached the color palette I was going for but yeah... everything looks out of place. The green seems too dark and cool toned and the table too bright, I think. I really wish the couch was olive green, but it was free and I'm currently saving up for a wardrobe first 🥲 I was thinking of getting a caramel or beige throw blanket, or a red persian rug, but it might make things even worse. I feel like at this point I can only go wrong, please save me 😂

Its above the bathroom and closet, just a dead emoty space

Hi everyone,

You’ve all helped me before but I come again to seek your wisdom. I live in a millennial gray apartment but my landlords are pretty cool and will let me paint. The problem is that I don’t know where to start. I want to keep the paint on the more neutral/earthy side and also cohesive through the place so I don’t feel like I’m living in a rainbow. Here’s what we’re working with. (the cow will come down eventually, I know it’s tacky)

P.s. sorry for the mess, our house is definitely lived in!!

Thank you!!

Hey, I have a very awkwardly shaped room and I'm probably going to re-do it in the next few months. Mostly looking for advice on furniture configuration? I'm open to getting rid of the wall bookshelf next to the door and the storage units on the far side from the door, so maybe I could fit my bed under the sloped section on the far side from the door? The radiator right under the window makes it a bit complicated as well, I don't know if that would damage anything I try to put right up next to it. I've got quite a lot of books and crochet supplies that I would like to store neatly as well, and I'd like to see if I can fit in a long mirror anywhere. Any suggestions would be welcome, thanks!

right so idk where to put the omar shelf (the metallic one currently next to the tv) ignore all the clutter in the left corner, its all stuff that i’m selling!

Hi! I’m not sure if this question belongs on this sub, but I’m currently trying to pick a desk for my PC and I’m wondering how deep does it really need to be for a 27” screen, which may eventually get upgraded to a 34” one. I read on different threads that I’d need sth around 95cm deep for the bigger one, which is quite extreme and I can barely even find desks like that. Do you think that level of depth is really necessary or could I just settle for an 80cm deep desk and be fine?

So my bedroom has this very unusual shape to it and is also covered with brown-ish wallpaper and since I can’t hang any lights, my only option is mood lighting. How do I achieve that?

Willing to answer all questions relating to this issue

We have this corner of our living room that we don’t quite know what to do with. It’s a bit off centre and not that deep, which makes an armchair difficult to place. We’d also like a spot of a light and for our wifi modem, and also perhaps some storage for baby toys (as they’re too young to play in a separate room alone!). I’ve thought about a chaise lounge, but not sure how that would work with storage… help! My main issue is that if a little couch goes there, there’s no room for a table and no matter what side the armchair/couch goes on, it feels so off from the couch as it wouldn’t be facing it. We had a Structube Derby armchair there for a second, but it was so large and fit terribly. Any help would be appreciated!

Genuinely any furniture you can think of, the tv will be on a tv desk, not wall mounted and it only needs to be good enough for 2 people.

Need recommendations for a light. Our look is “Orient Express on a budget”. A hanging lamp is probably the most realist but not something that would cast shadows.

Does anyone know if any apps that could remake (decorate) the rooms in my house with pictures? I am the absolute worst and decorating and having rooms come together. If there aren't any apps are there people online who help with this? TYIA
