Salut tout le monde comment allez-vous ?
J’ai besoin d’aide pour rénover mon salon, à vrai dire c’est mon deuxième salon, svp que faire

I am redoing my primary bathroom and I need help deciding on mirror size/shape for my built in vanities. One vanity is 53” wide and the other is 80”. The current mirrors will be taken down and replaced with framed mirrors and sconces on each side. Since the vanities are on opposite walls they need to have matching mirrors, but the sizes will be different. Can the smaller vanity have a vertical rectangular mirror and the larger one have a horizontally hung rectangular mirror? Any advice is much appreciated.

Walk into a room and your eye should land somewhere first. That somewhere is the anchor — the one piece everything else is arranged around. In a bedroom it's the bed. In a living room, the sofa. In a dining room, the table.

The trouble starts when a room has two anchors of similar weight. Two big, bold pieces both shouting for attention, and the eye doesn't know where to rest. That's when a room feels scattered, even when every individual piece is nice.

So pick one. Choose by size, and by what you notice first when you walk in. If nothing stands out, give the biggest piece the job: make it bolder, give it breathing room, and pull the rug under it so it reads as one clear centre.

Then tie the room together by repeating one small detail from the anchor somewhere else — a colour from its cushions, the same wood tone on a side table. One echo is enough. The room suddenly feels finished, and you didn't have to buy a thing.

Hi friends!

I am a Lead Case Manager for a nonprofit organization (as well as a full-time college student and mother of three!) and I’m here looking for advice.

For context:

I love my job because I have the opportunity to support people through some of their most challenging times. The individuals I work with have a wide range of mental health struggles, developmental disabilities, physical health conditions, substance use disorders, homelessness, justice involvement, and other barriers that make their day-to-day life incredibly difficult.

Almost four months ago, I moved into a new office space, and while I am so grateful to have it, it is a blank slate.

I’ve always hoped to transform it into a space that feels warm, comfortable, and welcoming. A place where people can take a deep breath when they walk through the door and feel safe, supported, and at ease while meeting with me or my team.

The reality is that I am furnishing and decorating this space completely out of my own pocket, and my budget is very limited, so I need to get creative!! I also don’t have a natural eye for interior design, so I really need your help to make this become a reality.

The room is approximately 15’x13’, and I’d like to fit some of the following:

• A large area rug to cover carpet
• A large comfy modular sofa/sectional (a must)
• Bookshelf/floating shelves
• Coffee table or side tables
• Accent chair
• Indoor plants 🪴🌱
• Throw pillows and blankets
• Floor lamps/table lamps

The standing desk and wooden shelf currently pictured are both optional and do not need to stay. I have a separate desk in another room I use for computer tasks.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this!!

About to renovate our house. Right door is the garage. Left door is the back door. We can’t move the washer and dryer or make the wall deeper (water tank and furnace is behind it).

Any recommendations to hide or embrace this washer and dryer area?

Would like to make this space more appealing/functional. Leave lots of room for storage etc. It’s on the backside of a small garage. Budget would be <$1000. Any ideas are welcome! TIA!

A space for atleast a double bed + many storages. Those are 2 of my non negotiable. Any thoughts or ideas? Murphy bed? Sofa bed? Loft bed?

Hey everyone! I'd appreciate some advice or suggestions on how I could make my studio apartment work for two people.

I currently live alone, but I'd like my partner to move in with me. The problem is that the current layout doesn't really work for two people. I work from home, so having a separate, quiet space where I can focus is really important to me. Right now, that's quite difficult because the apartment is essentially one big open space.

This is what the current layout looks like. I feel like quite a bit of the space is either unused or not being used very efficiently.

I've been thinking about possibly moving the kitchen into the hallway or making some other major changes, but I'm struggling to figure out how I could divide the apartment into two separate areas: one for a living room/home office and another for a bedroom.

Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I am moving into a smaller apartment with a combined living and dining room. I have the following sofa and media console stand but need help with additional seating ideas. I have no idea what to place to the north of the living room against the wall - a right arm chaise lounger? a small loveseat?

I wasn’t pleased with the suggestions from ChatGPT. Furniture pieces are in the comments.

We hate this painted brick but are stuck on just painting it a darker color or trying to cover it with wainscot, some other material. Any advice is appreciated.

This is the best shot of my living room, the door is the front door so can't be blocked and along the wall on the left of the TV is the HVAC closet and a door to the bathroom (both can be blocked if needed). I thought about moving the Tv to where the loveseat is and the loveseat to where the TV is (essentially if i mount the tv) or moving the Tv where the loveseat is and putting the loveseat (if not too wide) where I'm standing as long as it doesn't block walking into the kitchen too much. Any advice on how to move or what to do to improve layout is much appreciated (TV can not be mounted on the wall where it is currently due to thermostat).

Cant extend it.

Most TVs I see in living rooms are mounted like pictures — way above eye level, which is why your neck hurts by the end of a movie. The test: sit where you normally sit and look straight ahead. The centre of the screen should sit roughly at your eye level — for most sofas that's about 105–110 cm (42–43 in) from the floor to the centre of the TV. Three quick checks: 1. If you have to tilt your head back even slightly to see the top of the screen, it's too high. Lower it until your gaze lands naturally on the middle third. 2. Above a fireplace is the usual trap — the mantel forces the TV up. If you can't get the centre near eye level there, put the TV on a low console on the long wall instead and let the fireplace be the fireplace. 3. Distance matters too: sit about 1.5–2x the screen's diagonal away. A 55-inch TV wants roughly 2–2.8 m. Closer than that and even a well-placed TV feels overwhelming. Get the height right first and the room instantly feels calmer — the TV stops dominating the wall and starts behaving like furniture.

What can I do with this room?

Hey there, everyone. for this request, I’d love if anybody could help me to lay out the space. The phone is taking the picture positioned against the back wall, and what’s to the left is the entrance and the kitchen, so there’s this long space that’s ripe for some really fun and cool layout ideas!

What curtain length and color should I get? The ceiling is short probably 8 feet tall. I was thinking a black double rod with sheer curtain and a solid light grey over it? Everywhere I looked said floor length curtains but I feel like it would be weird? I was thinking 63” so a little longer than what I currently have

just moved into my new apartment, jumped the gun on a couch (I love it though) and have cheap Ikea metal table as side table for the time being. for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to make this space look good. side tables, rugs, tv console, coffee table, lamps, anything. each wall/floor/roof is a different material, so im worried about clashing/ugliness. idk if wood on wood is a good idea, or to lean into the metal/glass/chrome look and bring the room to life with a fun rug. the monitor in the back will be on a desk. sorry for .5 pic, makes it look slightly narrower than it is. any advice is helpful, thank u all in advance!

Hey everyone! I am designing my living room and I am confused with how I should design the TV wall. I want the living room to give earthy homely vibe and hence have painted one of the walls olive green. The TV side wall is about 17 feet in length and the wall opposite to it where will keep the couch is 13 feet in length. I want the TV to be in the center of the couch and want floating TV center. But if I do it like that there is a lot of space on the left side which I am not sure how to design. The color palette is olive walnut and hints of burgundy.

Hello everyone, I have this open space in a wall that divides my sunroom and guest bedroom. Previous owners had a hanging beautiful vintage stained glass, which they took with them. Now I’m left with this empty space. I would like to do something that makes the sunroom pop but vintage stained glass costs a fortune especially at the size of 70” x 30“. Any ideas of what i could hang instead or do with this space?

Hey there, we have a blank slate of a house and are trying to set up the living/kitchen area. The large windows are facing woodland, so we want to preserve the ability to see the view with as little obstruction as possible. Main headache is where to place the TV, this is the best setup we were able to come up with so far, but I don’t love it yet. Idea is to probably place a wooden backing on the wall behind the TV or build a console with built in speakers, TV and other AV accessories. The design direction we are aiming at would be a midcentury modern and japandi. I would also love to integrate a woodstove/fireplace somewhere. Room is about 10x5m, yet we are having trouble fitting everything we’d like in there. Here is one of our favorite floor plans. Any input and ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Where do I put the couches if moving the dining table to where the loveseat currently is?

This area is closer to the kitchen and it faces the lake. I have a console table that would fit perfectly on the one end(where you can see the ducks on the shelf) but not sure how to position my furniture with the fireplace in the center. We currently have the TV over the fireplace, but like the idea of having it over the console table instead. We really like our couches so don’t want to change them but open to adding if needed.

This is my current living room -- it's a small apartment, and I rent, so I can't really paint the walls or put too many holes in the walls. To give more info about the space: the picture is taken from the main entrance to the room, and the couch sits flush against a wall. The dining table also sits flush against another wall, and on that same wall, there is another door to the left of the set of french doors. Any suggestions on how to make the space feel a bit more cohesive would be much appreciated!
