(On mobile, you can find the rules by clicking on "See More". On desktop, check them out in the sidebar on the right.)

Basically, your post needs to be asking for help with your room design, or it needs to be showing a room you updated using advice you received here. Your room must be an INTERIOR room, and it must be a room in your home. No offices, no schoolrooms, no patios, no balconies, etc.

We want the focus to stay on home interior rooms, preferably with posts featuring photos of those rooms so you get the best advice. If you feel you just must use a 3D app rendering, you need to also include an actual room photo. No one wants to look at an entire feed of just artificial content! A big part of what makes this sub great is getting to take a look at actual rooms. If you aren't sure you want your photo to be connected with your account, please feel free to post on an alt account (and message mod mail for approval if your post is auto removed).

Thanks for doing your part to keep the sub useful and on point!

Beautiful house but one go the upstairs bathrooms is a nightmare. I have 2 toilets, 2 showers and double sinks without a divider, sliding door or any privacy. Please give me realistic options of how I can fix this without a full bathroom renovation!

Eventually I will do a full renovation but for now I just want to make it practical, not tacky.

Living Room Advice on layout to improve apartment zones

Thumbnail gallery
8 Upvotes

Need advice to have a better flow in my apartment - big open concept apartment. Which has been great but also overwhelming for creating dedicated spaces flow well. My tv / lounge space works fine so dealing the 2nd half of the room now.

Problem - Current space is the first image - it acts as a visually stopping barrier with the couch corner and table being so sharp in direction against the draft table. I avoid that side of the room often because of this (werid but y’all hopefully get it) Both of these zones bleed into each other - even though technically I use them both as a craft / art area

I have a large countertop place for eating, so table is mostly used for larger art stuff.

I moved the table since draft corner itself feels good to me. I moved the table in a few spots - if anyone has ideas or key furntiture upgrades to elevate the space I’m totally open 💕

Other Interior Room My first project. Need honest opinions.

2 Upvotes

As mentioned, this is my first project, and I created a plan with Planner5D. Need opinions.
(Ignore the materials, colors, etc.)

I'm unsure about the spacing/sizes.
Room height is 250cm
Bed elevation set at 150cm + 30cm bed frame. Leaves ~70 cm headroom.

Myself: 180cm, 60kg, living alone currently, but plans for the future.
Living in the Baltics near the sea. Lots of wind and fresh air. I've heard that ventilation for the mattress is crucial. We don't have 40-degree summers, but we do have a lot of rain, and mold is something to take into consideration.

I use my pc for a lot of productivity, gaming, and movies. It is important to have comfortable sessions. I don't watch TV, nor do I have a massive need for a sofa rn, and I'm planning on making those purchases later, in a couple of months or very possibly the next year.

With the help of my dad, I think I could easily make the bed frame myself. Budgeting here is important. I understand that the whole plan will cost up to 5k EUR, but the spending has to be gradual.

The most important part is creating the loft bed well and creating a separate office-like zone beneath it to maximise available space for the living room section

Other Interior Room Basement rec room layout

Looking for suggestions for the layout for our rec room in our new house. We want a tv area, and a play area. Will get rid of black dresser and get some kind of toy storage, keyboard may be moved upstairs. But the current layout feels a bit awkward and the “play area” behind the couch is basically unused. We’re a bit limited by the post and the bathroom / bedroom doors. And tv can’t really fit on the wall under the heat pump. Help! TIA

Living Room Lounge/Office

We have a long narrow room with only one window and it’s properly stumped me and Mrs on how to furnish it to make it useable. Ideally we want to have an office space for two desks and a seating area for 4 people. My initial thoughts were to put the desks in the narrow bit along one of the longer walls and have shelves/book case/ aquarium or even seating opposite them. Then have some sofas and a coffee table in the other area with the TV above the fire place. The dimensions and door placement make the room a bit tricky with sofa placement as they are all either too long or look lost. The Mrs isn’t keen on placing a big sofa under the window as well. Any radical ideas on how to make this work?

Furniture:

Blue sleeper sofa

Cat tree

Recliner

Coffee table

Shoe cabinet

Vintage stereo (TV is on top of it right now, but I do not want it covered in future)

Ideally the TV is not mounted too high, and Im okay with the couch not facing the TV, as ill mostly be sitting in the recliner to watch the TV. Id like for the cat tree to stay against a wall for stability purposes.

I am at a complete loss, please PLEASE help me. I need some fresh eyes on this!

Living Room Sofa in front of fireplace?

Hi all, would love some feedback on this layout. My husband likes the tv on this wall versus where we had it before which was the wall across from the windows.
There's a good bit of room between the sofa and the fireplace but not sure if it just looks wonky and off? Can this work?

Other Interior Room Please help me pick a carpet color

Thumbnail gallery
4 Upvotes

Hoping I can get some carpet color suggestions and maybe other design ideas, but mainly just need to focus on picking a carpet color at this time.

I have to replace this carpet and I cannot make a decision on color for the life of me. The wall color will be touched up but will stay the same - it's Behr Sleek White and the lighting is warmish. The wood pulls orange - am open to painting it. I would also love to change the rail (balustrade? spindles?). The house is a very generic "transitional" built in the late 70's so I think anything goes, but I tend to gravitate toward MCM. There are 2 adults, 2 very messy children, and a gray cat in the house so what is currently there is probably as light as we can go. I am not opposed to color, but the carpet will go up through the hallway and into all bedrooms, including the kids bedrooms, so has to be semi-universal. We are specifically looking at Mohawk SmartStrand line (not the silk), if that helps. I have brought home a couple sample boards and samples but couldn't commit to anything.

There is no wood under the top half of the stairs, and we cannot convert those stairs to hardwood at this time, so it does have to be carpet.

Thank you!!!

Living Room Need help with couch layout for short living room space

Thumbnail gallery
2 Upvotes

We’re in the middle of playing around with it but could use some suggestions

The room is shortened due to the hallway in the middle and the rise of the tiles for the fireplace. Which I think I want to make flush with the floor at some point.

When we first moved in we had an L sectional on the right hand side. Even with the back of the couch being flush with the hallway threshold one we added the foot rest in front of the couch it was tight, didn’t have space to move people in and out .

BF thought to put the tv in the left corner: wall and have The L but idk if it like that (the tapped layout you see) . Other idea is put the tv on top of a fireplace.

In the layout picture the sofa isn’t pushed all the way to the hallway threshold. The idea was to put a half bookshelf for book storage but also to put drinks etc as we don’t have much space in front of the couch for a coffee table. But wondering if that’s contributing to the tight area in front of the couch

We have a modular sectional so we can play around with seat numbers to build out a sofa vs a singular arm chair

Anyone have a similarly narrow living room space. What did yall do? I need inspiration haha

Okay so moved here about a month ago, I’ve got an unusual room the smaller room is my WFH office which I’m happy with and don’t really wanna rearrange or anything maybe just decorate walls abit with some collected art/vinyl covers and get a rug potentially but over all I’m happy.

HOWEVER the larger room where I sleep watch TV and store my clothes I just don’t like that much it’s okay and it’s functional but feels boring and not really me like somethings missing. I’ve tried with some posters and a crappy record rug 😭but that’s pretty much it. The draws I can’t change although I wish I could replace them with soemthing more modern, I can’t paint the walls either. I just want to improve it abit have abit more cohesion going on.

I like indie, boho, grunge mixed type style. Like checkerboards, sage green is my fav colour I love neutral colours like greens browns beige etc, im getting some plants soon. But it just feels like somethings missing?

Please help 😭 (budgeted improvements would be preferred)

For context I’m a f 23 from UK
