A text post for interior general:
I remember first seeing these thread like 1.5 year ago. For some reason I really enjoyed them and after a while got some architecture book at college to read. I write fiction then I started a short history about construction.
Next I had the good idea to change white bulbs for 3W warm leds (interior got 500% better).
Next I remembered my passion for plants I started sprouting lemons seeds to one day have pots that I've started.
Today I'm reading pic related, improving my CAD skill before moving to ray tracing in Blender to render ideas and learning about gardening since I had too much problem with sprout shit that seemed easy.
After my learning I say that without changing the building you can't do much to make rooms looks better. When you are stuck with fixed proportions then you focus on balancing the free space. Don't put to much on small rooms.
Play with lighting since it changes the room completely. Standard in my country is middle of ceiling 20W white cold lamp. First try using a 3W led (assuming you not making any surgery in your living room) and try playing with 2 or 3 sources. REMOVE the single source in the middle of the room because this sucks.
The room needs to stay as clean as possible for as long as possible. This make or break a room.
If you like me and love plants then I recommend reading plant phisiology 101 and geo 101 to undertand a bit about nature and biomes.

These threads are simply escapism for me
I'm completely redoing my basement mancave, going for something like this
Post bedroom inspo. Need to buy a new duvet cover and sheets
>>12437026
&this
>>12437026
Fuck I wish had higher ceilings in my basement.
>>12437035
I like going with white sheets and a patterned duvet. Or vice versa I guess. My dog shreds sheets so I don't really spend much money on them.
>>12437094
nah my basements low, I like the colours and spacing, and the lighting solutions have a nice diversity. I'm not going to buy all new matching furniture/lighting so seeing different types of products working together is informative
>>12437023
this complete site is about escapism desu
>>12437023
Are you in a small room? Remove shit you dont use until you have some free space. Put a plant pot. Done.
I don't have any pics, but does anyone have ideas for a bedroom that has a shitty mauve carpet and a tiny window? Luckily the bed fills most of the space. Is there an accent color that could work - like for a wall?
>>12437006
>>12439137
sick view but this is such a meh space / layout
every time the same pics from pinterest...

>>12439308
Have you seen the photos from posters rooms? It's a fucking embarrassment, save a select few. I'd rather see some interesting shit to get ideas from.
>>12437006
Right on with the lighting. I decent lamp shade works wonders on even the shittiest lightbulbs. The only places a bulb should be uncovered is when you really need a light, like in a desk lamp, kitchen or bathroom. Otherwise keep it diffuse or you house ends up looking like an overilluminated shop.
>>12437038
>>12437026
you have tall windows in your basement?
>>12439483
read the thread
>>12439363
All of these aren't even bedrooms, and if they are they're either really small or really big.
Is there a board on 4chan where i can get more interior inspo or what ?
>>12439496
So what? Most people aren't confined to a single room.
>>12439379
what is that record player
>>12439483
No, but I have a short West facing window, so light isnt a [problem in the hours of the day that count to me having a great room.
I know light is one of the most important elements but im talking furniture and the use of space/colour. Going minimal like most fags itt
OC, thoughts?
>>12439824
tv doesnt match with the windows, fix that it's just hard to watch, your room's not a hospital ward. tvs goes on desks, not walls, change the tv and glass table and put them where the mirror is and viceversa
ps4 next to books really?
put some shelves for those books and add plants on it
replace that clock elsewhere
get rid of that fish tank asap
the rest is fine, i guess, would need another pic from opposite angle in order to appreciate and judge more the room, anyways it's a solid 6/10
>>12438918

Hello Rams Museum.

Where in the UK do you live? I agree the standard of housing and taste in housing in this country is fucking terrible but its not impossible to make a nice place.
Anyone have some advice on where to put a mirror specifically placed for sex, but not incredibly obvious in a bedroom?

Never bring dates home....if they think they're your gf they'll bust into your place trying to "surprise you", if they leave upset they could send beta orbiters to do some passive aggressive shit like fuck with your car, or might be drugged out looking to scope your place while her boyfriend breaks in while you're working.
Get a room, their place or car. Never your place of residence..

Not sure if this is the right place for this, but does anyone know if you can replace the housings speakers come in? I have these shitty 2000s looking eyesore speakers that I picked up that sound pretty good, but they stick out like a sore thumb in my room.

Check my bedroom.
Just moved in after flat overhaul. Didnt even finish unpacking yet.
Excuse me for mess and bags.
Chandelier has a dimmer control for comfiness. Spotlights on edges of the ceiling for when i need a lot of lighting.
Maybe ill post the other room (flat is a studio) when kitchen and sofa finally arrive.
Also what sofa type would you recommend ?

Holy shit these sucks. "Minimalism" is pure fucking cancer.
>>12447370
There's a lot of be said for minimalism, but it's not for all the time. Spending a great deal of time in a mostly empty room, well, there's very little to do and very little to look at. That's great for a bedroom, but for a living room it comes off as impersonal. Like a hotel room.
Plus there's the tendency for people to go overboard and go past uncluttered into stark. Mid century modern hit a good balance, things were clean and simple without being too severe. But they weren't afraid of color or pattern. I've never been a fan of this all-white trend. Which is fortunately starting to lose popularity. Turns out, old people have real trouble with it. A white toilet disappears into the white tile wall behind it.
>>12444288
firstly, tidy your room, we cant rate and criticise it if it's an utter mess.
second, plant placement is too fucking contrived, it's quite noticeable you want to be fashion, but its condition fails terribly because of its position and try harding
lastly, fuck off and go show off your shit elsewhere you cunt
Is it possible to incorporate a gun safe into a room, without it looking like shit?

>without changing the building you can't do much to make rooms looks better.
I disagree with this.
In my opinion space doesn't matter in so much as perception of space matters. Things like decluttering, using cooler lower energy lighting and multiple light sources, serve to increase perception of space.
To me the single most important thing is lighting. Space is perceived through light, using lighter colors, having empty space, reducing clutter, these increase perception of space.
I think through your tips alone you can make a huge change to a room!
>>12449589
When I said that I was thinking more about exterior. Where I live the norm is ugly cement box with weird roofs. I see hipsters trying to improve the exterior but it ends ugly anyway.

not bad considering that this is obviously your parent's house. just get the tv off the windows.
>>12448018
>comes off as impersonal. Like a hotel room.
this is my problem with almost all the images itt
like nigga did you just walk into the room for the first time with a plant and a bed and a chair?
Most of these places have such high ceilings, or at the very least very clean and flat ceilings.
Almost all the fucking condos in my city were built by cheap idiots who couldn't pay the extra few bucks to hide the venting above the ceiling - instead they drywalled/boxed in the edges of almost every room. It looks absolutely retarded. See picture.
>>12451377
Not a good look, but I'm sure there are plenty of places where you live with super high studs, at least you don't have a leaky building epidemic like my country does
>>12437006
I really enjoyed this, any other basic reading for interior design? Thank you.
Serious question, are all the chairs in these pictures there to look good? For me if I need to sit in my room then I would just sit on the bed.
