How do I get my studio apartment more like this?

I'm on a budget but I'm open to a wide range of ideas.

>>12952734
For reference, this is my apartment.

1/3

>>12952734
basically impossible

>>12952735
2/3

>>12952741
way too much shit has to change, I'd assume you rent too, so not like you can start smashing shit down

>>12952741
3/3

>>12952742
That is correct. I'm also kinda stuck with the Ikea furniture. I'm thinking of maybe getting some paintings kinda like pic related.

I'm also looking at getting curtains for the windows.

>>12952741

From what I can see, the flags are the only things you have hanging on the walls, and they're not aesthetically pleasing. At least, not by themselves. Get some framed prints or something.

>>12952734

Just buy antique furniture and fixtures on craigslist.

>>12952760
I sorta stuck them up because they took up a lot of space and were easy to hang up. I had them lying around and it was a quick fix to my bare walls. I'm thinking of getting stuff like >>12952751. I'm also planning to get pic related hung up on my wall.

Would it look ridiculous to have curtains and blinds on the same window? I don't think I'm allowed to take the blinds down. I might try to find curtain rods that I don't have to drill.

>>12952731
This is already thread my b guys :/

dumping...
others please post more aesthetic, somewhat japanese-inspired, dirty city photos like pic and >>12952731

vintage electronics are important

plant life is key

open spaces are good

...but compact spaces feel warmer

>>12953491
feel and actually are

good luck warming any of those "open" spaces

>>12952731
Nice im getting my first appartement in like 2 weeks. Any tips on some plants that look fa ? Or just tips in general

>>12952735
christ please stop; you have zero taste or sense of aesthetics; your flat is ugly

>>12952768
Put them in the trash if they 'took up a lot of space'. You are not stuck with ikea furniture (unless it's the landlords i guess) you lack resourcefulness. Interiors can look amazing on any budget, look into upscaling and minimalism.

>>12952743
>>12952741

everything is hideous, you have the worst taste I have ever seen
I'm really close to puke

I just moved into a new flat
Is it still acceptable to put band posters on the wall when you are in your mid 20s?

>>12952768
>>12952751
Also, don't hang this shit up. It won't look good, trust me, find some drift wood or something, paint the walls and get some floor standing lamps.

>>12953837
No; unless they're aesthetically pleasing framed collectable tour posters or silk screen prints.

>>12953837
I got some prints and framed them, i am quite happy with it. I guess if it fits, go for it.

>>12954367
i always found this overrated. looks like something out of a pier 1 catalogue. a lot of it looks cheap too.

>>12952805
this is probably really nice at night. but that fire with lack of ventilation disturbs me.

>bed on the floor
pls no

>>12952731
Does having a lot of clothes make me /fa/? Or only a good smaller amount?

>>12954367
I mean its all cheap Ikea stuff or self made. The only expressive thing in there is the couch

>>12952731
Mmmm, the Eames Case Study House. So patrician. MidMo is top tier.

>>12954661
quality over quantity in all of life

>>12952731

>>12952735
You always post this and i fail to see how this is /fa/ at all. Ugly floors, shitty ikea furniture. Looks fucking cold and empty not minimalist or even scandavian. Read a fucking book about interior design before you decide to buy the cheapest shit from IKEA and pretend like it's something unique and amazing. I've literally visited college homes that look better than this.

>>12952768
God i fucking hate you so much.

>>12952741
>>12952743
>>12952735
get rid of that bed, your place is more catering to low profile furniture. open up the space by having artwork that matches the coloring of the walls, light colors. anything else and it'll close the space up. most of the furniture is ugly. flags look bad; white sheets on whatever bed you get that is lower would look much better

chars are not bad but get rid of that black shit tier covering, it makes them look bad and intrusive. place them somewhere else.

leave the space of your windows more open to interaction.

>>12954513
the windoes are open bruh

Ayy I'm getting my house renovated. Just had the walls painted sage green and will be getting a light brown/gray wood on the floors. Lights on the ceiling are new!

>>12956042
Looks eclectic. Which is what I’m gonna do with my furniture. Random but quality pieces of furniture brought together. Their total randomness somehow makes the pieces fit together. I’m pretty sure it’s also how they describe Fraiser’s apartment in the first episode and if I’m not mistaken his method was having different high society people pick out one piece of furniture a piece which is a neat concept

>>12956385

Japanese + industrial is goat. A lot of "traditional" Japanese things like paper walls and those little tatami shits are really impractical. Also who wants to sit on the floor all the time?

>>12959230
I'll dump some plantspo real quick but I don't really know the names of the plants. If you look up common houseplants or go to a local nursery you can figure them out quickly.

This is serious, throw out/sell all your furniture and start over once you know what kind of aesthetic you're going for. What you have right now is terrible, and doesn't work at all with the colors of your rooms.

>>12965333
cloth, any kind of cloth be it curtains, rugs or tablecloth.. its the only thing missing from being "comfortable"

>>12965333
invest in a nice area rug if you dont have one already. the tv weirds me out though but im guessing its the best you could do with it.

>>12965333
A couple plants would co a long way to make it feel more comfy, got more angles of the room?

>>12965333
change out the chairs
they're ugly on their own
despite that, they somehow work here but the room would still look much better with something different

also as other anons said some fabric would be nice, either an area rug in front of the tv (obvs away from the fireplace) or maybe a runner cloth under that statue on the left

It looks nice, but that TV is way too far away to be enjoyable.
>>12962219
What do you do for a living? Get some taller stands to put more things in the same small space. Clean up that kitchen. Other than that it looks really comfortable.

>>12965333
Looks like you have a great space, but by the looks of it you think that you are vastly more interesting than you really are...

>get some actual plants, not tiny rose centerpieces you find at a crappy Italian restaurant
>maybe some better lighting that isn't a 12 dollar lamp from target
>get rid of the 2 horrendous modern "art" eyesores hanging up.
>either remove everything off of add to the mantle
>why do you have 2 tables
>can't tell for sure, but that chair looks terrible

>>12954367
This is legitimately a contender for the best space someone on this board actually owns. Anyone who says differently legitimately a pretentious faggit.

I would remove the map print and put a full mirror up instead, but that's just me

>>12952743
Personally I like IKEA and am currently doing a lot of shopping there, but this is how no to do it. If you're inclined, save up some money to make your place more comfy so it doesn't look empty and clinical.
Pick solid linen for your bed, like plain white or light grey, and maybe add one blanket with a pattern or texture. Get an actual sofa or higher quality chairs, and give them some life with pillows and blankets. Get an actual TV stand too, because KALLAX can't fit a DVD player (learned this the hard way). Buy a simple floor lamp for some soft lighting.
Find some decoration too; your flags are cool but sort of stick out like sore thumbs by themselves. You don't have to go crazy, but just adding a few prints, a globe, small tables, more books and a couple of plants would make the place look more like a home. Shit, even my boyfriend's anime figures look okay in our spare room.

The sunken tub is insane. That's a guaranteed broken bone if you accidentally step into it.

I'm moving into a small-ass student room next month. Can you guys post some comfy bedroom inspo? The room is a clean slate really, just a wood floor and white walls and one window.

Can anyone post some good room inspos that don't have that much natural light?

I currently live in the basement of a duplex, and the only entryway for natural light, is a single 4x2 window

:(

>>12969960
I've got a better question. How do you into changing bedsheets? I've been considering a loft bed, but it seems like it would be more hassle than it's worth.

I think some of the newer, more 'high-end' IKEA-stuff is pretty cool but even if you stick to buying the best IKEA has to offer your home will look like shit because it will look like something out of a catalogue. The best route, imo, is thrifting

>>12953648

Monsteras and various fig trees look good and are easy to maintain. I recommend going to your local nursery and picking out plants, most of them are quite easy to maintain as long as you do your research.

>>12960444
I really like these, do you know where i an get them?

>>12952735
Best thing about this room is your headboard. Work with that color of wood, but make it an accent color. Dont fight this floor either. You could get a real cozy vibe going on here if you work with the woods instead of trying to cover them up. That's your word though, "cozy". So google inspos relevant to "cabins", "warm", "comfortable", etc.

>Furs (mixed browns, never solids)
>Minimalist colors (don't overwhelm this space with too much clutter/pattern)
I like to pick two colors, one as the focal point and one as the "pop!" (I've come to call it). I usually pick a very low key neutral as the main so its easier to work around, and a bright pop color for one or two accent items. This approach means the viewers eyes will be drawn to those spots of color so invest in them the most. Maybe even art pieces.

no taxidermy under any circumstances. that shits never cool.

>>12975390
No, then it wouldn't have that classic /fa/ extreme poverty look. In fact, he should slosh a bucket of white paint on the floor and chairs to cover up the natural wood.

there needs to be decent amount of light and you can probably only get plants that can tolerate high humidity environments

post a picture of your bathroom and I might be able to tell you if it will work, but honestly unless you have a huge bathroom it's gonna look weird as fuck

my advice would be to get a few select plants, you can get a couple of dope jungle ones that love humidity and spread em out, put em in the window or hang them from the ceiling

>>12974747

dude spread your shit out, get some shelves and eliminate all that negative space it looks like a fucking junkie den

I like how my new room's coming along. What do you think.

would it be tacky to hang up/ frame art prints? of paintings

my walls are bare and i want to hang up art, my other option is movie posters i guess
but i like the old stuff so im worried it will look tacky

not like i got anyone visiting but still

>>12978448

it's only tacky if you put up shit you think people will like

Just put up what you like anon and you'll be glad you did. I put up this picture and got it framed for a fuckload of money

worth every penny, makes me smile every time I look at it, framing is so worth it

>>12978489
