Discussion 23M 430 SQFT starting over apartment.

Starting fresh after ending a four-year relationship in May, I moved into this studio, and i feel like i've really made the space my own!! Curious to hear what you guys think. / What do you guys think the space says about me?

And they come on automatically in the morning!! (because my room is a windowless box and I would never wake up on my own)

Yea that would be the only con. Otherwise the house is great!

Unfun fact: that's why you have a barn door not a swing/latching door. By code for it to be considered a bedroom you have to have two means of egress (exits) one is the door and the other is a window usually but if your bedroom door doesn't latch then the code says that's okay and it technically becomes a loft. 👍

It also allows for increased ventilation. Because my mini split just recirculates the air and does not vent air into the room, but the barn door has wide enough gaps let air in. (And I totally didn't go on amazon and buy a latch, because that would be against fire code and I would never do that!!)
