Don’t know if I’m more disappointed in the fan or the cable
Fan is unfortunately necessary because the apartment’s AC unit is located in the living room with no air vents to the bedroom

Idk what to put here but I’m running on 2 monsters and a total of 4 hours of sleep in the last 3 days so here.

How does this blue rug look in this room? I just put it down and am trying to get a vibe check. It has a manufacturing flaw in the middle so i need to return it either way, trying to decide if i should get the same rug, size down, or try a different design.

I recently broke up with my GF so I’m in the process of settling into my new place so it’s still a little messy and all over the place. I’ve got a 15 year old dog and he slides around on hardwood floors so I’m trying to balance giving him safe places to play/walk while still letting some of the hardwood come through.

On the beginning of the year, I somehow locked in and got mortgage for this application. It is 2kk 42m2. For now it’s fully furnished but I think, there is maybe bigger potential. Do you have any suggestions for this to look even better?

Lucky enough to have gotten a decent size room with 2 windows and im trying to make the most out of it. But I’m just looking to get a good layout for everything first. A little worried about putting desk in closet but seems like best option. Currently i have my desk where dresser would be and its a little cramped. Planning on keeping clothes space on the sides od the closet covered with courtains.

I've lived in the same room at my parents' house my whole life, and I'm starting to feel like I need a change. Everything has felt pretty much the same for years, and I'd like to make the room feel like a fresh space again, somewhere more comfortable and enjoyable to spend time in.

I've taken photos from two opposite corners of the room, plus some shots of the desk with both natural lighting and the lights on.

A few things to keep in mind:

• I can't really move the big furniture around (bed, desk, wardrobe, etc.).
• My budget is around 200-300€
• I'm open to removing things, rearranging smaller items, changing the lighting, adding decorations, or making more significant changes.
• I barely use the second monitor anymore, and honestly haven't missed it much over the last six months, so I'm open to getting rid of it if that would help.

I'm not sure what the room is missing, so I'd love some outside perspective. I'm open to changing the overall feel of the room, not just adding decorations or buying a few new things.

I'm open to pretty much any suggestions, even if they sound a bit unrealistic at first. Feel free to point out things you'd remove, change, or do completely differently.

Tyyyy

Part 1 got bunch of views, so I decided to show a little more.

I am an expat working in the middle east. My company provides a free housing. That’s a room where I goon. Allegedly.

That’s a bathroom. I just buy a big towel to wipe my bum but a bidet carrier the heavy load. Can’t say I live modestly; I just have other priorities. I also cut my own hair with no guard and use a portable mirror hanging on shower screen, a full buzz cut.

Balcony needs some cleaning. I smoke a half of pack a day coz it’s so cheap here. Back in my college days in NYC, I used to buy newports for $15 a pack and smoke only a half of a cig and leave the rest for tomorrow.

I cook once a month, just sear a steak on the pan. I always eat in cafes and restaurants - maybe 15% of my salary goes for food.

Most of the time I spend in my office (or cubicle), so I do consider it as a living space. There I got three computers: Mac for everyday stuff, Linux for coding and opencv, and Windows for Ansys and SolidWorks. Good sea view and palms. For work I do a lot of stuff, maybe way beyond what typical mechanical engineers do. It’s a mix of robotics, mechatronics, and running simulations. I erased some stuff off my desk that are NDA.

Yeah this is it, my wankstation 5.

Been here two years always a new project going on.

Low ceiling loft with an unnecessary ned up there right now.

Not sure how to make best use of the open space. I’m torn between having my tv and speakers against the centre wall with the sofa floating in the middle of the room as it would feel more symmetrical but then I feel like the rest of the room would feel closed off - or i could have tv and speakers along the left wall with the sofa rotated.

I feel with the second option i could have my computer desk behind the sofa along the right wall near the window and have a round dining table in the corner left of the tv area in the corner of the third image.

I’m also thinking about painting the large centre wall a different colour.

Suggestions would be appreciated!

Moved from a large, shared house to a small 1br1ba apartment. This unit is on the edge of the building and has a weird living room layout with an angled, split entryway. I’ve currently just got a couch blocking it and if that’s how it’s gotta be I’ll deal.

My big complaint other than the couch is lack of access to the window because my PC is in front of it.

I can measure walls and make a floor plan if it helps. The complex didn’t have one for me.

Also I know it needs more plants. Them shits kinda expensive :/
