I hate Ikea so much it's unreal. If you're going to go Scandi at least have the dignity to buy upscale items that will last some time and not the absolute cheapest dogshit you can find.
> b-b-but it's good design at a decent price point!
It's well-designed garbage and it'll look like well-designed garbage in 3 years when it falls apart while looking like every other apartment of a 20-something in the western world.

If it weren't for the near post-apocalyptic look the excessive plants give your room I'd say it's solid.

any solid wood stuff I've bought from them has lasted as long as any other piece of wooden furniture. the particle board shit tends to die with the slightest amount of abuse, though I've even taken one of their shitty wardrobes to 4 different apartments before it started to sag and crumble

Start cultivating a collection of books that you will actually read. Not saying YOU don't, but a lot of people have all these masses of books never read and you can tell when they're fucking idiots with a library

[Anonymous No.17240855]

>>17240841
this. every book i buy and collect has been of peak interest to me, mostly classical, horror, and philosophy. i guess you have to have good taste to have a respectable collection. waiting on a copy of American Prometheus right now actually

[Anonymous No.17240869]

>>17240855
It's fine to keep a small reserve (No more than 15-20 percent of collection) of unread books of interest, but if you don't actively read and you get asked about the books (Because let's be honest, you're on /fa/ asking about how to style your room with literature, it's majorly superficial) you don't want to fuck up by having this nice library and if someone asks about it, you have nothing to say other than "I've been meaning to read this and this" and it be more than half your collection.

So long as you buy a plausibly large amount of shit you can totally get away with forgetting to pay a good bit. Just play totally dumb and pay for it if anyone mentions it. Helps if it's relatively cheap relative to everything else

[Anonymous No.17240893]

what would you call this kind of aesthetic. form-pressed primary-colored sheet metal... white bakelite... and more importantly, what's a way to recreate this feel inside a rented apartment?

i mean, it's all about huge exterior structures, my indoors would be the opposite of that, a small fixed-size room that i can only change the appearance of by cluttering it up

It must be hard to do in an apartment, I think the best you can do is to use large pieces of furniture with multiple functions and have them fit together tightly.

I have no idea where you'd get furniture that looks like that, especially with the angles. Square stuff in white is easy though.

Senior year dorm was comfy as hell, faced west so I got some really nice sunsets. Only downside was that our marching band practiced right across the street, but I guess in a way it adds to the nostalgia four years later.

yeah it borders on architecture, but perhaps it can be alluded to by props. blocky things, sharp angles, limited palette. plants maybe.

Yes. I think you could get that feeling with a large wall unit for storage for the bulk of the actual furniture, and tightly packed multifunctional furniture next to it. I tried to draw it but gave up halfway.

If I were going to do it I'd get that large storage unit and have a desk right next to it, with a hutch or storage unit right above it. On the other side of the storage unit I might put another drawer unit or something with more storage. A few details would make it look a lot better. Personally I'd have my vintage stereo equipment in one of the storage units, and I'd choose furniture that would allow them to fit in pretty snugly. And going for equipment that has more of a futuristic design to it would obviously help.

a TV that fits into a square space snugly, maybe a telephone with a built in answering machine since those are bigger and often have a design that fits in to all this.

Maybe even one of those under-shelf Spacesaver radios they used to make. that would add to the utilitarian look of the room.
