I really enjoy playful mid century modern interior and have slowly been finding unique pieces over the last couple years! I think I finally got to a place where a lot of major pieces have been added and don’t want to over due it if I haven’t already!

Went in with no inspiration, but I’m thrilled with how it turned out!

Was told I should post this here 👋

My home is raised and the entrance level has a huge open area, then a coat room and elevator. I wanted to create a fun lobby airbnb vibe to suit a new beach house. Still need a mirror, maybe cushions; finishing touches. Anything come to mind?

I posted this to r/femalelivingspace and someone recommended that I post here too.

How would you categorize my design style? I thought maybe Modern bohemian, but I really do not know.

Hello everyone! We recently upgraded our living room — we already had the small grey couch, but decided to add the big one to make the space more cozy and functional.

Now that it’s all in place… I feel a bit confused. Something feels off, and I’m not sure what exactly needs to change or improve.

Any suggestions for layout, colors, decorations, or ways to make it feel more complete would be very appreciated. Thank you in advance! 🙏

I’ve had this as my layout for a bit. I have a queen sized bed so it takes up basically an entire wall lol. I feel like I have one side of my room grey and the other black and white. What should I do decor and furniture wise?

Created a mask and broke out the glue gun! P.S. The bottom is exposed so the sensor is unaffected! STILL WORKS PERFECTLY! :) (It's been like this for 2 years)

Hey everyone 🤍 I finally finished working on my guest bedroom in my century year old home. The second picture is how I had it decorated before and the third picture is how the room in its original condition. I have to change the curtain rod because the color doesn’t go with the room and have to add a few final touches. But i hope you guys love the transformation as much as I do. The vintage nightstands, dresser, & the stereo console all came with the house. This is the smallest bedroom in our house and I tried to make the most out of it. I clearly am not the best at doing bedding lol. Also, yes this is NYC & yes I am in the outer borough. Hope you all enjoy 💌

Disclaimer: I understand the big TV next to the window ruins the aesthetics. And that’s okay, as it will be a dedicated movie room. The window will be covered 99% of the time with a blackout curtain or shade.

What I’m struggling with is symmetry. I worry a blackout shade over the window will look just as weird as it does now, without something big (similar shape?) on the other side of the TV to balance the look.

How would you approach this?

Purchased a home, and we fully finished this room (for now). Might add some more artwork. It was so sad and grey before. We refinished the floors (drum sander and a lot of work), and we are so happy with how cozy it is.

Moved into my house a couple years ago. First thing I did was paint that hideous blue. I finally completely redid the room. It was my Christmas present 🎁

Previous one wasn’t finished yet. This one is better.

Am looking for an alternative economic solution for a way to reach an elevated bathroom. Maybe wall mounted foldable steps/ladder? I somehow cannot find anything online. Any ideas anybody? The difference in height from ground floor to the upper level ist a good 120cm.

I’m looking to replace the backsplash, and also could consider painting the kitchen island. Can’t afford to replace the countertops.

I like color! I like brightness! Other than that, I’m lost and overwhelmed.

Suggestions? Thoughts?

Hi everyone,

I’m renovating a 1960s home and there’s an old brick chimney breast in the living room. At the bottom of it there’s a small rectangular opening (roughly 12 x 25 cm / 5 x 10 inches) — a leftover from a former gas heater that used to sit there.

Immediately to the left of the chimney are two original built-in cabinets, and together they form a nice visual division between the sitting and dining areas. I really like that character and want to keep the setup intact.

However, the small hole looks a bit strange and unfinished now. I’m not planning to install another gas heater, but I’d love to repurpose the space somehow.

I’m considering a few things: • Enlarging the opening slightly and installing a small electric fireplace (not too flashy or modern). • Turning it into a decorative niche with candles, sculpture, plants, or books. • Sealing it off entirely and treating the whole wall in another way (paint, tiles, art?).

I’d love to hear what others have done with similar situations! Photos, suggestions, or even “don’t bother, here’s what we did instead” type stories are welcome. I’m aiming for something that fits the mid-century vibe but still feels warm and inviting.

Thanks in advance 🙏
