How do I get into interior design? My room looks like absolute shit and I haven't changed it from when I was like 11. What do I do? I might post pics but I'm pretty embarrassed of it

>>11036112
please post
everyone will give you suggestions on what you could change
it can't be that bad

>>11035940
one of the best ones I have seen so far

>>11036120
Eh its pretty bad, but whatever. Teddys for sentimental reasons. http://m.imgur.com/a/AlUnQ

I need more shelves.
About to move from an apartment into a house, so I'll be able to spread out and things will look neater and more organized.

>>11035554
I-Is that one of those capsules in that crazy building in Tokyo?

>>11035554

>>11036291
I love the bookcase in the back but the couch and whatever that glass thing at the back is looks pretty tacky imo

>>11036330

What the fuck, are you trying to pick up chicks or not giving a duck?

>>11036331
I'll never give up the couch (at least, not until it's old and worn out).
It's the most comfy couch I've ever had, and I love the leather, it's so buttery soft.
Won't give up the wall hanging, either, just because I collect mid century decor and that came straight out of an estate that basically hadn't changed since the sixties. I'd take a picture of some of my other mid century furniture, but it's either already wrapped for moving, or has boxes piled in front of it. That's why I only took a pic of that corner of the living room, because the other side is piled with packed boxes and wrapped items.

>>11036246

I thought it would be way worse xD
just paint that white blotch and buy white cabinets or something instead of the orange hideous ones

>>11036330
o kurwa stary
bierzesz potem te kaczki do lozka zeby ci grzaly siusiorka??

>>11036365
Just curious, is it the cabinets themselves you dislike? Or just the colour? I can easily get them painted if that's the case.

>>11036361
I respect that. Also that sounds like a fun hobby

>>11036371
Ya ne razumeu pa polsky, ebana kurva.

>>11036390
It is! And hopfully, once everything is in a bigger space, I'll be able to arrange everything better to really show it's design, instead of all jumbled up in an apartment like it has been.

>>11036385
just the colour but it's weird a bit that they are so tall and slim and the rest of the wall is totally empty
also throw away the black tribal guy figure and organize books better maybe yellow books first then orange like a rainbow since you have so many colourful ones

>>11036330
It must smell like shit there

>>11036484
Sounds like a plan. Been thinking about throwing up some art or movie posters since the walls are that bare. Any ideas what colours would go with the room? Its a shade or two darker than in the photos, I can't get it to come our properly on photo though

>>11036601
you already have a splash of colour with those small yellow things and that's really cool
maybe just something black and white, bright with a black frame, no need to throw more colours there
or some other muted colours the picture could be, pick something you like at the same time though

>>11036673
Yeah, I was thinking the cover art from F#a#infinty by gy!be or a love supreme by john Coltrane, I really like both and there not to bright.

here's my living room

>>11035554
Reminds me of the shithole apartment from the Sega CD game "Rise of the Dragon" for some reason.

>>11035940
I had a cozy room like this in Germany when I was a kid. Rocked except I kept wanging my head on the ceiling.

Why not hang the mirror?

>>11036051
I will never understand why some people still collect CDs.

>>11036361
I respect your thoughts on the couch - comfy couches are hard to beat.

>>11036579
Unquestionably.

>>11035940
w2c those posters??

>>11035940
I wish I had this room

>>11036039
I'm not really sure what i'm looking at

>>11036051
I want a room like this except vinyl instead of CDs and musical instruments around the room

>>11036056
I couldn't do the clothes like that they'd have to be in a closet or something

>>11036291
Nice set up, glass thing looks tacky though

>>11036330
nope

>>11036877

>>11037676
IKEA rocker. They're comfy and cheap, like $60 IIRC.

>>11037691
Thanks man!

Here's a recent one of my room. Just moved into a place with wood floors finally, feels good.

>>11037700
A bit too cluttered because of the TV and game console, but it'll do for now

>>11037702
wtc wood speakers

>>11037719
Pioneer CS-G303
Cheap 90's speakers but they were $5 and still sound pretty good.

my room as of right now
things i know about:
shit taste in art
gaymer keyboard
wire management

does anyone know anything about plants and could recommend me specific low light floor plants i could put on the wood next to my bed?

>>11035554
Nagakin Capsule Tower. It's at 20% capacity and falling apart.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakagin_Capsule_Tower

>>11037777
Checked

Reminds me of the Brutalist architecture in A Clockwork Orange

>>11037751
w2c that exact clothing rack and bookshelf?

in return i recommend peace lily and chamaedorea elegans (though i cant confirm whether or not they'll thrive, they're just what i was planning on trying out at some point)

>>11037793
for the rack i bought a bunch of pipes, elbows, screws and a piece of plywood from home depot, it all came out to be ~70 dollars and about 20 minutes of building time. you could probably get cheaper if you use a different metal. i used cast iron.

the bookshelf is just elbows from home depot for like $2 each, and the piece of wood is from a storage room my landlord had.

thank you for the reccs, i'll check em out

>>11037810
danke bb, sounds neat

>>11035940
i like. good use of space, simple, nice combo of furniture. not too show offy but also modest enough for the size. whats the opposite wall look like? maybe get some plants in there too senpai

>>11037751
Pothos, aloe, elephant bush, spider plant and some kinds of ferns if humid enough.

>>11038163

>>11038267
ideally i would have it a rectangular slab of wood but since that'd be way too expensive, it'll do.

>>11040482

Caribou - Our Love is the colourful one. I've also got Marvin Gaye Greatest over there and Joy Division - Substance

>>11037751

What directions do your windows face? like east-west, or north south? that plays a big role in what plants you should get

>>11044444
>quints

>>11036343
Kek

>>11044444
east/west fortunately

>>11044549
that gives you the most versatility, just about any house plant should do fine in that space. I'd probably just go with the basics other people have mentioned before (spider plant, pothos, aloe vera...) other than that, just walk around hardware and garden stores and look at plants you like. my personal suggestions would be a snake plant and a dragon tree (Dracaena marginata)

>>11036709
why is /fa/ always /mu/

I'm moving into my first apartment soon, and I have absolutely zero furniture/decor. I left from mommy and daddy's house to join the Army and for the past year and change have been in training/schools/selection/deployment. I have a sparse room in the barracks but I am marrying in April and will therefore be moving out soon after. Waifu has a job contract through November so she won't be moving up until then so I will have approximately six months to find and decorate a place from the ground up. I am in Tacoma, WA which is probably the most /fa/ CONUS duty station.

TL;DR what would you do if you had to interior design a fashionable living space from nothing, with a small budgrt?

>>11039555
what.

>>11044948

ignore him. pallets look sick dude, was thinking of doing a similar thing but sanding the pallets down and painting them white. i'm too pussy to do it as it could turn out shit

bad photo, the lighting sucks because i live the basement but yeah

>>11045477

While the aesthetics here are nice, the problem with this is insulation.. Those windows are probably old as hell, and have plenty of cracks to let heat out and cold air in.

I suppose for summer it's ok, but in winter and I assume it's in the northeast United States, it's going to get real shitty real fast.

>>11044948

This is nice on first glance, but it's oh-so-sad. Probably will start to feel like a jail cell after a few weeks of living there. Needs more personality.

>>11037793

check out zitto

They make nice racks and shelves.

since your room is rather small paint it in white or get some bright coloured furniture in it.
Get white short curtains or at least white blinders, paint the window frames white and remove whatever is on the windowsill for a nc plant. Also open it some more, it's an important light source. remove those yellow drawers they look lost.

it's fine for being an ikea dorm, but I'd lose the tumblr-tier lights and the tech magnets/stickers
I've personally got an aversion to pine (especially composing your shoerack/bookcases) and think it goes against the cleaner white/cream/shades of black/metal colorscheme you're closest to, but I don't think there's much to pragmatically be done in this case beyond putting up some good art

Test

I have about a one foot space between the foot of my bed and the wall, what can I do with it?

Doesn't matter how I orient my bed, there will be about an extra foot.

>>11056219
fishtank spanning the width of the bed

>>11056231
Would be cool but I'd be afraid of kicking it/maintenance.

>>11056219
Build a little L shaped shelf/table to put books and shit on. Even if you don't want stuff at by your feet, you can put things on the side of it. If you have the room, you can put it on casters and pull it out for extra storage.

Alternatively maybe shelves up the wall. Better than wasting the space.

Advice highly welcome, but I can't really move the rack of the desk that stands against the wall

>>11058041

Hi Beetlejuice

>>11058046
Id move anything out that isn't completely necessary. Some green colours or indoor plants would look nice too. More storage if possible. Dont hang much on the wall unless its black and white, as it will clash with the wallpaper.

>>11058046
>>11058041
Change the wallpaper for starters, maybe even the doors. fill the walls with things you like, not just wallpaper, yeh know? you can maybe keep the pinstripes below the map, but the map and stripes look a mess together. get some better lighting, it looks like you only have the one in the ceiling. make more room for your windows, looks like good light is coming through but it's kinda covered by the rack and stripes and curtains. make something out of that table, right now you're just using it as a coat rack... put it somewhere you really want to sit, with something on it you really want to sit and work on or whatever. you'll use it a lot more. get some covers for your bed. get some plants!
Don't have to hide the power rack. it would just seem like you're hiding something, it has a hospital vibe to it with a curtain
and it'll close the room even more.

>>11058041
>>11058046
Oh, and the wood floors look nice. use that as like a baseline for a color scheme

>>11058102
Man, I can't change the wallpaper either. It sucks, I know.

Can you actually buy this persons work?

My private office and my dog

>>11055834
generally yes, but not the one on your related picture. Go for something more oriental looking like a blue Nain or red Hamadan Carpet. Quite expensive if you want quality though

>>11058111
Why not?

>>11058383
I am renting the room, I'm not allowed to change everything in it. Besides, the cost would be too big.
