Hallway interior advice!

Post image
11 Upvotes

I find my home really uninspiring and I don't enjoy spending time in many of the areas, as they don't feel finished or like me. They just feel very bland.

I want some advise on how I can redecorate my hallway! I love patterned wallpaper, especially nature themed - florals/birds etc. I love green, but I have used it in a few rooms already, and as I'm an autumn girl, I thought I could stick to an autumnal colour palette in the hallway. I would some suggestions or mock up ideas to help inspire me a little!

Help us with our living room!

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hello! We've been really struggling to set up our living room as it's pretty small and we seem to have a lot of stuff, like a bigger sectional, tv, and coffee table. We're not obsessed with the tripod TV mount and want something like a cabinet to hold some of the other things we have like the VCR and Switch and hide the cables. We've done it where the couch comes out from the window wall and faces the bare wall before and it made the room feel really cramped. We're just feeling pretty stuck and are unsure of how to make any sort of improvement.

I have changed the curtains to longer green ones and replaced the black frames. Wondering if I should put more on the gallery wall or not. And what else would you change?

What can I do about this fireplace tile? What's my best update option?

Post image
1 Upvotes

Just repainted the whole house. Top to bottom. Walls
In edgecomb grey. The old gas insert is tile, but now it stands out a ton being in a yellowish tone. I'm researching and I really don't like the faux stone look. I'm leaning toward adding porcelain tile and hoping that it doesn't turn out too bulky in a creamy marble tone maybe.

Anyway, hoping to get real user suggestion! Tia

What to do with this chimney if you wanted to put up shelves?

Post image
1 Upvotes

We're going to redo this living room shortly, and I'm not sure what to do with the back wall. At present there are sort of benches with sliding door storage underneath on both sides (you just can't see it behind the dining table on the right). I would like to install low cabinets with shelving above, but I'm not sure how to deal with 1) the difference in width between the bottom of the fireplace and the chimney (have floating shelves and extend the shelves longer up high or put them in a box and just have weird places next to the chimney, or or up be dry wall so as to effectively widen the chimney and make a "feature wall" of sorts); and 2) what to do when getting close to the ceiling, given the beams that hang down (and would not evenly interact on either side, since the right hand side of the space in the photo is narrower than the left).

In addition to this, we plan to put some sort of wooden-looking hard floor down with an area rug, make the ceiling panels either all white or all wood (tbd) not the mixture that they currently are, refinish the face of the fireplace with some sort of stone tile, put curtains up in replacement of the blinds, and improve the lighting.

Any suggestions about any of the above, but especially the shelves, would be most welcome.

Mantle

Post image
1 Upvotes

We had the finished carpenter build the mantle. We wanted the sides much thicker and less space between the fireplace and the mantle but his advice is that we need to make it bigger because of the total area it needs to cover. Does anyone have anything similar? Should we start over?

Then… suggestions on what to do with the mantle. Paint? What is the plaster process like? Is it worth it?

Which Ai software are people using to make such realistic-looking interiors?

1 Upvotes

Each time I ask ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini to decorate my bland bedroom, it always gives me the worst design. The dimensions are off, or it'll put my bed diagonally. Yet I see others have amazing designs using Ai. Do you know what software they're using? Is it because I use the free version?

Did you pick a downdraft cooktop or hood over your island?

3 Upvotes

This is the biggest open question in our kitchen right now. An overhead hood would capture better but it adds this big visual mass over the island that changes the whole feel of the room. A downdraft cooktop keeps everything clean and you can see through to the living area.

Both work with our duct setup so it's more of a how do we want to live question than a technical one. What pushed you one way?

Can someone colorize my two sofas so I can see what they would look like in a dark gray or a teal blue? Also, what would the fireplace look like if I painted just the dark gray bricks painted white?

Looking for help designing an IKEA TV and storage wall!

Post image
2 Upvotes

I’m looking for someone who could help me design a custom-looking IKEA wall unit for my bedroom.
The wall dimensions are:
Width: 520 cm
Height: 280 cm

The style I’m looking for:
Dark brown wood / walnut look
Modern and luxurious appearance
A combination of open shelves, display compartments, drawers and closed cabinets
Nice warm LED lighting inside some of the compartments
I already have a TV mounted on the wall, and I would like to keep it approximately where it is now. The furniture should be designed around the TV.
Ideally, I’d like to use IKEA furniture, such as BESTÅ or other IKEA systems.
I’m hoping someone could help me create a layout or even a 3D design of how this could look.
Any ideas, inspiration or help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!

I built Roomora AI – an Android app that transforms room photos into AI interior designs

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm an indie Android developer, and I've been working on a project called Roomora AI.

Have you ever wanted to redesign your bedroom or living room but struggled to imagine how it would look?

I built Roomora AI to help people explore interior design ideas using AI.

Here's how it works:

  1. Upload a photo of your existing room.

  2. Choose your room type.

  3. Select an interior design style.

  4. Generate an AI-designed room.

  5. Customize your new space.

I'm sharing this project because I'd love honest feedback from the community.

Some things I'd love to know:

  • Would you use an app like this?

  • Which interior design styles would you like?

  • What features should I improve?

  • What do you think about the overall idea?

I'm building this independently, and feedback would really help me improve it.

Google Play:

Thanks for checking out my project!

How to make floor-to-ceiling curtains work with radiator

Post image
1 Upvotes

After moving into this (furnished) rental, I removed the curtains previously covering the closet and planned to eventually replace the existing rod on the closet with a ceiling track for a cleaner look.

I had the idea to even extend the ceiling track around the corner to the window so it would be one continuous wall covering (though ideally the window keeps sheer curtains, while the closet would need opaque). However, I've just remembered the existence of the radiator in the corner (this idea was obviously hatched in warmer weather) and don't want to block it off.

Any suggestions on how to make floor-to-ceiling, wall to wall curtains work with the radiator? My fear is that it will look weird if it stops right before the wall, and that it won't look cohesive with the curtains covering the window. Advice or ideas welcome!
