/fa/ - Fashion

Moving in to this bedroom. Any ideas about what I could do to it?

>>10269852
depends what you want. something cozy? somethig more minimalist or modern? colorful? monochromatic?
if you will be keeping the carpet you might wanna do something more cozy.

>>10269852
get rid of the carpet, done.

>>10269869
>>10269870
I'm not sure what is beneath the carpets, I guess i'll find out when i get the keys.

I like minimal and industrial style interiors. I don't know if it would look right though with industrial style furniture on top of carpet.

>>10269870
carpet can be made to work if he has no other option. (see pic) if you can though remove it

>>10269918
try to keep things minimal then. for sure get rid of the carpet. keep the colors neutral remove clutter although some clutter can be industrial like wires. dont have too many pillows and blankets. not sure what else im not very experienced with industrial interior.

Anyone got any room plant inspo? One anon here had a pretty sweet window setup

>>10271762

thanks m8
Grew up in Europe, so I've traveled a bit.
I used to move a lot, so I never had a permanent sense of "home" (the longest I ever lived somewhere was 5 years, and that's when I was really young). The way I create my sense of home now is by putting pictures up. It just adds a sense of intimacy to the room/house/dorm that makes it feel more personal. Pictures help remove the "temporary" feeling of wherever I live.

>>10273137
I agree. Lots of pillows

I have no idea what the reputable brands, magazines, etc. are when it comes to interior design. I want to furnish my new room but don't know where to look beyond Ikea.

I picked up a nice desk from Wayfair. Best price I could find for something like this at $250. (even though it's particle board fug)

Try thrift shops fam.

Where should I keep my socks, underwear, and knits? Should I just pick up a set of plastic drawers and put them in my closet? Or should I get a set of dresser drawers from Walmart?

Poor college student fyi

>>10273531
plastic drawers inside closet, thats cheaper. plus its only you who is going to see it anyway

Desk at my current dorm

>>10273703
lol. you don't know what you're talking about. bedbugs will hide in any furniture, and they will get in places that are nearly impossible to inspect.

and they're not the only parasites and infestations that can come with used furniture.

they can all come in new furniture too but the chances are exponentially lower.

>>10273711

wow for a dorm you actually made it look pretty nice. good work.

that indicative yellow pine furniture gives it away though.

>>10273716
Any furiture including a solid wood table for instance?

>>10273732

unless it's some ultra-hardwood like hickory, and unless it was carved from single piece of wood, and unless you sprayed that shit down before you brought it into your home, then yes.

you need all three of those conditionals met.

if it has any joinery at all, it's susceptible. if it's not a hardwood, it's susceptible to burrowing. it only takes 1 egg attached to the furniture somewhere to potentially wreck your shit.

>>10273746
so what you're saying is that a used desk is guaranteed be infested?

>>10273150
im sure you do ;) and thats a great house, didnt realize there are 2 exact copies

>>10273856

Funny he even has the same kitchen cabinets as I do.

>>10273150
busted!

>>10273082
Yeah that's not yours

>>10273755

no, what i'm saying is that there is a much higher risk that a used desk is infested than a new desk.

and having lived through that shit, let me tell you: you should take every precaution to avoid it

So what cars would you guys consider effay? I've never really seem this particular topic come up here much (if at all), so I was curious to ask. Pic related, I myself have a 2007 Toyota Camry. It's a basic bitch car, I know, but it looks pretty nice regardless imo.

>>10274661

I picked up this ikea bed frame already for like 180 because I'm moving for college and needed a frame. I'm mattress shopping and I'm wondering if I should just take it back and get a metal base instead? It would only be like 50 - 60 bucks instead, but of course no headboard.

>>10273711

but thats a pretty shit pic

if u can find them in furniture then why r they called BED bugs huh??????

>not buying used furniture

I bought this 1940s arctander chair for like 6k it's worth around 20-30k

>>10275660
>>10275827
you already bought it, stick with it. metal frames with no headnoard will come off as a try hard trust fund babby. it's college, everyone is in the same shitty boat as you are, so trying to look high class will be a turn off

and something about headboards is great for a man, as you hear the loud knock against the wall as you plow a girl in bed. kevin hart did a bit on that

Arrange them in a square and fill it with books. Put a comfy emerald armchair and a lamp, and you've got yourself a comfy reading nook.

Is this supposed to be negative criticism? Minimalism is a bold design statement.

>>10281233
looks like design chairs though, you can probably find chairs like that at designer furniture outlets

it'll still cost you a few hundred a piece

>Is this supposed to be negative criticism?
Obviously

>>10281593
I think reducing clutter is a good thing, both in a decorative standpoint and in your life in general, but the stark, empty rooms that are posted here feel so cold and uninviting, which to me is not what a home should feel like.

>>10269852

black paint makes your room look small
thats the reason so much white paint is used, it makes your room look bigger
nice room though

>>10282763
Just remember that you are possibly (likely?) arguing with a 15 year old about fashion and decoration.

And even when you're out of college you realize all the dumb college students who you argue with

Good movie

>>10281387
friends?

Hey fags, I'm shopping for sheets and a comforter, but I'm not sure how to go about it.

Basically
>metal bed base
>light wood floor
>dark espresso desk and bookshelf

What color sheets and comforter should I go with? I'm thinking a light grey would look good and wouldn't get as dirty as white.

Any recs where to get this stuff? I figure the bed skirt needs to match the sheets, but it seems like a lot of the nicer budget options for sheets don't have a bed skirt option.

>>10282753
But then again, you don't want it to look like

White white white. Comfy white bedding is the only answer unless you're cosy shabby chic. Everything else will only take away.

>>10282764
Why take such a risk? Most furniture such as tables you can make yourself, thanks to the Internet.

>>10282756
Hm, I think too claustrophobic for me. Was thinking of putting an armchair in that corner and a coffee table in front of the large bay windows.

This is the new kitchen. Suggestions? Design it /fa/

>>10283689
What about a grey comforter and white sheets? Just feel white might be hard to get clean.

yeah ok

how the fuck has this not been posted yet

>>10284335
I think the most obvious thing it needs is a really, really bold color on the walls. The white is awful. Something bright and summer-y, but that goes with the slate floor. Yellow might be an okay choice, though it might be a bit girly. Same with a lighter green.

Part of me thinks a gray would go well, but it'd be VERY dependent on the gray.

You definitely need a small table and two chairs in the nook on the left. I'd do something black and iron or MAYBE a wood that matches your cabinets.

Also, get window treatments.

>>10284576
>yellow
>green
Disgusting.

>>10284335
Go with a warm toned gray that's slightly darker than the gray tiling for some contrast. A cool toned gray also works if you want something to contrast against the wooden cabinets.
Maybe put a slim bar-style table in front of the windows so you can stare out creepily at your neighbors as you sip your morning coffee.

>>10284571
I'm kind of amazed I could recognize that space.

Unless it's Modernica since those are still made from fibreglass using the original Herman Miller moulds and they are more expensive then modern vitra/HM eames chairs.

no its fucking cancer. you have 3 options

>>10287164
Been thinking about it and sorry I think I will go ahead and buy one anyway. I simply can't find a nicer chair for 30 bucks and my circle of friends won't know/care enough to judge me. They claim lifetime warranty so hoping the quality won't be too bad.

I also have little sympathy for rich designers.

Heck I might get the rocker too while i'm at it.

>>10289163

Okay, Go for it, but like I warned, they have some shoddy construction, the legs tend to be very uneven/unstable and you'll be screwing it all back together often until it gets stripped.

>>10289299
Maybe.. I guess i'll look in to the warranty.

I'll post some of my favorites.

Is it possible to be /fa/ without endlessly acquiring objects? I feel I should get a nice house, nice room, good wardrobe and then be happy with that. Seriously when does it all stop? Are you ever satisfied? if not then this is a fool errand tbh

>>10289963
and a nice car, and yard

>>10289973
And nice art, and nice furniture.

And nice wood floors. And a nice bathroom.

>>10289987
And a nice TV and a nice surround sound, and nice sheets, and nice cabinets, and nice tools that I'll never use, and nice light fixtures that are subtly post-modern because the box said so and I've heard that word before, and nice candles and a nice bonsai and a nice incense holder because I want to demonstrate to all the people I have over (current count: 0) that I am a very spiritual person, and a nice lay-z-boy, and a nice home gym that I'll totally use all the time, and nice lotion

>>10289963

In my opinion it isn't a good to be "fashionable". Fashion is a fleeting thing, with styles changing over decades, and trends changing by tomorrow.

I was discussing what it means to be timeless with a friend, and I think to be timeless is to ignore all trends and look to design aspects that have survived the decades in regards to shape, form, outline, colour, etc.

To be timeless also means there isn't a need for the endless acquiring of objects as the things you buy 2 years ago will still be aesthetically relevant today.

I feel like I am en route to achieving this, as I have only felt the need to buy only a few items of clothing the past year and half.

Pictured is my wardrobe.

Are there similar style buildings within driving distance of your new place? If so, just go to thrift or other second hand stores and scavenge old pieces that fit both your style and the style of the building.

>>10273292
this is awesome tbh

>>10271044
that is a fucking gutted school bus. i'm nauseous.

>>10290405
To be timeless you need to create your own style, which is not influenced by any trends. You just wear the stuff you like and don't depend on shit like "style guides" or "basics".

>>10292749
I would think basics are important for building a foundation on which you can build.

>>10293107

>>10293090
I meant basics for a certain style. There are no basics for everybody. You create your own style which will depend on certain basics, which are defined by your style. Meaning you create your basics yourself.

>>10274745
That's what i'm in college for. Almost everyone dresses basic but it's been fun so far. I can tell there are some people here that would love to slap a "Live Laugh Love" poster in some shitty "Southern Chic" style interior but that's probably just because I'm in my freshman year in a slightly southern state.
