Bedroom What to do with this bedroom?

With my bed stuck in the corner, my back wall feels split down the middle, and I can’t figure out how to make the room feel put together.

Any wall layout ideas for frames, wall hangings, etc for both walls? I can’t drill any holes or paint, so I’m working on command strips only.

Thank you for your help! Also open to ideas for the nightstand/complementary furniture pieces.

Bedroom Nyc bedroom brain fried

Trying so hard to figure out a cohesive design and art style of color themes. I was thinking burgundy, but I'm not really sure whether to incorporate that into the bed sheets, rug, or something else. A bed that lifts up with some storage, or a bed that has a high frame with risers. The storage one is a bit ugly, but I was thinking maybe I can add some upholstery over it or that darker leather headboard. Overall, I feel like I'm really struggling to figure out a cohesive art design texture direction for this. I don't really have one style. I like whatever looks cohesive together would work with the floors and the walls without painting.

I'm trying to design my small (~10x10 ft) bedroom and would love some ideas!

Functionality-wise, I need:

  • Sleeping area with a comfortable bed.
  • Dedicated home office for working and video calls. Ideally, I'd like it to feel separate from my sleeping area, possibly with a divider or acoustic panels.
  • Closed storage for clothing, shoes, and personal belongings.
  • Full-length mirror and somewhere to get ready.
  • Ideally, a small seating area near the window.
  • Separate lighting for working versus relaxing.

Design-wise: I want something bright and focused during the day, but cozy and warm at night. I love textured furniture, chocolate-brown leather, burgundy, and slightly retro pieces.

My biggest challenge is figuring out how to make everything look cohesive with my existing orange-toned wood floors and white walls, without overcrowding the room.

I'd especially appreciate suggestions on the overall design direction, color palette, and furniture styles!

Bathroom Tiles - yay or nay?

Thumbnail gallery
429 Upvotes

Hey all, trying to get some opinions on this bathroom. We have a small budget (around 1000 euros) to renovate/change up some things to make it look cohesive and a bit more modern.

We're not sure if we should keep the white sink and remove the tiles (or paint over them), and have a modern look - or keep the tiles and change the color of the fixtures to have a upgraded vintage look. The floor tiles cannot be changed :(

Do you have any ideas? What are your opinions?

Living Room Couch, rugs, curtains

Renovating my parents lower level in their split level home, since I moved back a few months ago. Now that paint and flooring are done, I’m taking a break from finishing the trim and am wanted to start ordering a couch, rugs (one main, one runner for the hallway and a circle rug for my easel/yoga mat area) and figuring out what color curtains I should have. I’m really struggling to figure out what I want ! I love jewel tones, natural earth tones and would love to stick with cream, dark brown, green and burnt orange. I’ve thought about a purple couch or curtains, which would be fun. I just don’t know what items should be what color. I find myself to be good at designing around things I already have but buying all new stuff together my brain is swirling with possibilities. I love DnD, the renaissance fair, and all sorts of fantasy. I’d like the room to reflect that and feel natural, cozy, and subtly whimsical I guess. Not like in your face but the vibes are magical 🧙‍♂️
Please give me ideas, I know I want three rugs and I know my curtains will be track mounted to the ceiling. The dog crate had to stay but I’m sanding and staining a piece of wood to sit on top as a side table for the couch that will eventually go next to it.
Thanks in advance :)

Kitchen Please help with this kitchen wall

I have this big, plain white kitchen wall that looks quite bare and washed out, and I’d love to make it feel warmer and cosier. I have four items I’d like to incorporate: a framed botanical print, a wooden spoon holder, a small wall-mounted shelf and a hanging wooden shelf with rope detailing. I have absolutely no eye for interior design and can’t figure out how to arrange them so everything looks cohesive and natural rather than forced. I’m thinking of adding some trailing ivy and changing the lighting to warm white, too. How would you arrange these items, and would you use all four or leave something out?

Living Room Help! Awkward living room layout — how would you arrange the furniture?

Thumbnail gallery
1 Upvotes

Trying to help my daughter furnish her 17' × 16' living room. The staircase, bedroom doorway, and fireplace make furniture placement surprisingly difficult! It's a rental so she can't change anything.

The TV will likely go above the fireplace (possibly on a pull-down/swivel mount). We need to maintain a 30–36" walkway around the stairs to the bedroom and access to the patio.

How would you arrange this room? I'd love to see layout suggestions. We are really struggling because nothing seems to work.

Photos and scaled floor plan attached (2 squares = 1 foot). Walls and openings must remain as they are.

Bedroom What color rug would you add?

Thumbnail gallery

Excuse the mess, Ive just moved in but just had surgery (hence the pregnancy pillow) so I cant move anything until a friend comes over and helps move things for me.

Im really not a fan of the colour of the carpet in this room and am looking for a rug - probably one that covers the whole floor of the sleeping area.

However, Ive been told that the colour of rugs Im looking at will make the room look cluttered. Im inclined to these rugs because they are much cheaper than any other rug I can find for the size Im looking for.

Though Im horrendous at interior design so if you have any recommendations on colour, texture, size etc., Im all ears!

Please note the placement of furniture may not be final , open to suggestions on that too. I also usually stick to neutral bedding sets.

My husband and I have been living in this house for two ish years now. When we moved in, we chose this wall color and immediately hated it. Didn't have the time or money to mess with fixing it then, but we do now. We are over it lol.

I am TERRIBLE at picking colors, furniture, etc..

We are open to new everything except the floor. This floor was here when we moved in, but it's too nice and still in good shape. We can't pay the money to replace it right now (even though it's not my favorite).

I need help from people who know what they are doing lol! I am attaching a picture of the living room with our overhead lights off and on. Doesn't make much of a difference, but it does change the floor color a tiny bit!

Bathroom Need help with bathroom renovation

Thumbnail gallery
3 Upvotes

I have a terrible 1970s bathroom in my rented apartment. I’m sort of on the fence about the blue tiles, I feel moody bathrooms are sort of having a moment right now, but as it currently stands, those tiles with the current cabinets do look very dated.

The bathroom also isn’t particularly large, it measures just 140cmx240cm, meaning there isn’t much space to put up any storage or shelving on the floor. Going darker or keeping the current tiles might make the room even smaller, and since the window isn’t particularly big, it does swallow daylight.

I have free rein from my landlord to paint the tiles, plaster over the tiles in non-wet areas where tiles aren’t really needed, change the cabinets and sink etc - provided I foot the bill (ofc… 😒). My budget is around 100-500€. I’ll spend as much as is needed to transform the space, but I refuse to unnecessarily upgrade someone’s property.

So I’m not sure whether to keep the tiles and perhaps change to golden fixtures, paint the tiles and add one accent colour (the rest of the apartment has a japandi style theme with lots of natural fibres and oak and olive green, while the kitchen has been through a lighter birch wood makeover, pink backsplash tiles and an apricot wall colour. If we could make the bathroom either echo those, or at least cohesively carry on the overall vibe, that would be nice.

The heating is floor heating, so I was thinking either some wood design linoleum floor on top of the tiles but I’m not sure how compatible that is, or to have stick-on tiles, although I’ve had rather poor experience with those in my kitchen (steam from nearby pots made them shrivel up, grease remover took down the colour…).

I’d be grateful for your ideas, colour scheme suggestions etc.

I didn’t want to commit to color drenching this room green as it doesn’t get a ton of light. But wanted a pop of color so I paired the lower portion. This room used to be floor to ceiling grey. Trim is the white that came with the house and was used with the Grey. This white trim is all over the house. New colors are evergreen fog and shoji white. I feel like this white trim is not right to keep, but most people say to keep it? Would love any advice on how to optimize this room. 8 ft ceiling! Thank you!!

Bathroom Bathroom tile selection??

Hey all. Need some help choosing bathroom tiles for our new apartment.

We've chosen to go with the slide 1 tiles for the whole house, which I'm so happy with. But the problem is with the bathrooms. I'm tossing up between slides 2 and 3. I really love 2 but I'm worried it might clash with the rest of the house, while 3 is also quite nice and maybe more cohesive?? Idk what to do. Maybe neither of them are suitable?

We won't be living in it full-time, just when we head overseas to visit family. Thanks in advance.

Other Interior Room Help with this weird little corner in studio apartment

Post image
2 Upvotes

I'm about to move into a little studio by myself after years living in a larger space with my now ex partner- very much preparing to have a "more stuff than space" problem so I need to make use of every square inch.

The new place has this odd shaped between the front door and the bathroom door that I'm not quite sure what to do with. If it was an actual corner I'd put in something like a locker for coats, shoes, bags etc but the shape makes it awkward.

Anyone have any ideas for what to do here- or even just some keywords that would help me find furniture that would fit the angles? I doubt i could afford anything completely custom built but I am a pretty confident DIYer so suggestions for that would also be useful.
