This is now a minimalism thread. Post inspo

Minimalism>everything else

w2c that coat hook thing?

>>7635008

Could've just used Google Image Search and did a little detective work.

>>7633941
futons on pallets hell yea

yeah these are totally your rooms lmao

>>7635072

It's just a mattress with a pallet as a bedframe. It doesn't convert into a sofa or anything.

>>7633941
>>7635099

aren't pallets made from lower quality wood?
would you have to finish or lacquer them?

>>7635291

If a pallet can support all the weight of, I dunno, washing machines and drums of cooking oil and whatever they use it for, I'm sure it can support a mattress and your body weight.

As far as finish, if you wanted to do that, you can do whatever you want to it. Spray paint it black. Give it a high lacquer finish. Sand it smooth and stain it. Whatever.

>>7633919
where do I put my tv and beer fridge to keep my shit feng shui niggers?

>>7635315
>doesn't take hardcore pound fucking into account

>>7635315

I mean I used to work with them sometimes and they would splinter like motherfucks and were knotted to shit.
Some we could even rip apart by hand

>>7633352

>buy tall cheap mirror to lean up against my wall
>it's permanently bent convex

shit

This with one nice painting on the wall is ideal.

>>7633935
Maybe in terms of design; particularly engineering, graphics, and web... When it comes to actual rooms and or homes, it's a sign that you're lacking personality. Unless it's part of your culture, like Japanese or Swiss.

>>7635358
i'm mirin

where do you live?

>>7636580
Throwing shit on your walls and floors doesn't give you a personality anymore than collecting a bunch of books makes you well read.

Minimalism allows a rooms to become focused on a small number of things which are important to a person, rather than being filled with distractions. It's like the idea of a simple meal with only a couple of ingredients, where each of the individual parts can be emphasised better than if it had been made with many.

Based on the fact that you excuse the "Japanese and Swiss" because it's "part of" their culture, your definition of cultured seems to be strictly adhering to the culture you were born in to. But what's virtuous about that? I'm not saying it's a bad thing, but adopting elements of other cultures, or just picking out elements that you like in abstract, shouldn't be a negative thing.

It's cold, so I refuse to go in there. Plus I spent $1200 on my couch, so I intend to get my money's worth by sleeping on it.

>>7636514
too woody

>>7636767
cord management bruv then we can talk

>>7636813
I swear I attached the photo.

>>7636875
no such thing.

also it turns out it's a microhome? someone built a japanese tearoom on top of a trailerbed, with a loft bed and a tiny kitchen and bathroom.

>>7637020
oppressive as fuck

plus, the novelty wears off very, very quickly

>>7636810

I want a warehouse. fucken cheapo unappreciative brookyln hipsters I know have one and it looks like shit

>>7637020
That is way too small. People shouldn't have to live in places that small while the wealthy etc etc etc righteous indignation blah blah you know

>>7636810
Imagine FUCKING living there.
>>7637400
Do you know how much it runs them and what they got it for and how.

I find it hard to believe most of these are any of your rooms.

I'd post mine, but I feel like it would be insulted for not being "minimalist" enough. I collect a lot of posters things and nicknacks from yard sales and flea markets.

>>7633352
tfw ordered an ikea couch that took 6 months to get to my place in rural yokohama just so i didn't have to sit on the floor anymore

tfw my uncle gets rid of it when he had the construction crew come in and replace the windows/flooring that pre-date wwII

yes the house survived wwII no it does not look great

$500k house, needs 1.5mil to sold/comfortably liviable

>>7637558
Just post it, dummy.

Also they're not OC, thread was hijacked, see 2nd post

thoughts?

>>7637746
very nice

why the plant though?

>>7637751
>not keeping plants
They look great

>>7635339
They can handle crazy high amounts of weight, especially when landscapers use them for huge outdoor tiles.

>>7637775
W2c pallets

>>7637751
>why the plant though?

Oxygen, nigga.

>>7637751
That's a real stupid question you got there, sonny.

I think this could be cool, because one could make their whole living room surrounded by seats...but then there could be nothing else there.

>>7635046
Thanks anyway.

>>7637046
-Tie cord to hook in roof.
-Climb on chair.
-Tie rope around neck.
-Kick chair from under.

Very /fa/. I promise. All the top artists do it.

>mattress on floor

you're going to regret that so much if you or your city ever gets hit with ants/bedbugs/roaches/etc.

inb4 "i'm a clean person"
it doesn't matter.

i'm shell-shocked. I only use metal bedframes now. metal furniture. all clothes hung. shoes on rack only. no cross-contamination of bed-clothes. if I go to someone else's house and sit on their furniture, my clothes go directly into sealed plastic bags when i get home until they're washed or dried or heated in some way (ironed maybe).

i've seen some shit

>>7637746
tbh this would be as minimalistic as i will get. Its a nice room.

Its just that minimal style is so hard to maintain. If you are really planning to live there, not just board/flat out for uni

>>7637746
that plant is ugly af

also holy hell the captchas are getting hard af

>>7637975
please elaborate. you know, i'm sure there's tons of bugs and shit that we don't even notice, but it's pretty natural. humans were meant to live among bugs just like everything else.

>>7636580
If you dont need it dont buy it

>>7638008
a few years ago i picked up bedbugs from coworkers. we worked in a factory-type setting and would all stash our stuff (jackets, lunches, bags, whatever) in the tiny break area. so anyway a few months into this job i start noticing bloodstains on my mattress/sheets and bites all up and down my arms. i lift my mattress off of my box-spring and there's like hundreds upon hundreds of bedbugs living there. they bore into the wood and fabric of the box-spring. they get INSIDE your blankets and sheets. they feed on your blood in the wee hours of the morning. they get into your clothes, your bags, your shoes, your books, your records so that it's impossible to clean them out. they can each lay up to 5 eggs per day. even if you kill all of them, their eggs will be everywhere and then they'll hatch and your infestation starts all over again. also you'll never kill all of them in the first place.

you can have your apartment chemically treated, in which case you literally have to bag up everything you own, every knick knack in every drawer, every shoe, every book, everything has to go into sealed plastic bags piled in the middle of the room. all furniture has to be pulled away from the walls and disassembled. you have to take out all of your socket-casings because they get into the walls through electrical sockets too. then they come in and spray your whole house and all your furniture and you have to stay out of your house for a day. then when you return, anything that comes out of the sealed bags has to be either thrown away or else washed in hot water or put through the dryer on high to ensure that any bugs/eggs in/on it are killed. you have to do this like 4 times in a span of two months, and even then complete de-infestation is not guaranteed.

or you can get your house heat-treated which is also a ha$$le.

you basically have to move and throw away everything you own to really get rid of them.

>>7638061
holy shit! that's insane. i'm having a slight ladybug infestation right now and i thought i had it rough.

>>7638023
>>7636728
where the fuck do i store all of my clothes or cleaning supplies or towels or sheets in bare ass rooms like these

>>7636514
>Exposed wood paneling
This is my fetish

>>7635358
i love modernist architecture

w2c sick clothes racks?

my closet doesn't have enough space for my jackets & sweaters, etc.

>>7639449
look for retail stores that are going out of business and cop their racks

>>7639451
or alternatively go to /diy/ and ask them to help you make one

that is unless you're a soft-handed frail white moneyboi

>>7639456
i doubt i could make one i'd like

and
>implying all the time & effort into making a rack and gathering supplies doesn't cost you more than spending $30 at your local ikea

>>7638269
It's your house?

>>7639468
I don't think it would cost more, how much can piping really cost?

and your time is obv worthless since you're spending it on 4chan

>>7639476
>implying all time on 4chan is wasted
>implying i didn't get great ideas & inspo from here that have changed my life for the better

should probably hit the gym more tho

>>7639487
those ideas & inspo are rare considering it's usually garbage you have to sift through to find it

Old pic, but I haven't changed my room since

>>7639523

>>7637746

>>7637746
I would hate having my bed next to a window with no curtains how do you know somebody's not watching you sleep?

overall a 7.5/10

How can I save my shitty one-room apartment, with light lamination and white linen curtains? My bed is dark-brown wood, other than that I don't really have any furniture yet.
Kinda want a vintage, rugged, industrial-ish look, none of that clean, minimalistic stuff

>>7641070

>>7641108
are your parents rich?

not /fa in any way

>>7641108
You sure it's you redacted and not your rich auntie?

>>7641108
and a small part of the backyard, patio
that table is like 700 pounds

only pics i have of the place, the other half of the backyard is a pretty sweet junkyard/garden area with planters made from old cars and stuff

My cousin (dad's bro's daughter) pad a few years ago
She's a huge fedora fag

One day I'll have the heart to be rid of my magical things

>>7641117
not really
dad used to make 6 figures with a high up construction job in 05 or so, started a big remodel to make his dream house

housing industry got fucked halfway through and he was like half finished and never got to do the bedrooms or anything like that and now makes like 1/3 of what he used to

so was decently wealthy at one point and has a nice house because of it, now manages to get by comfortably i guess

>>7641121
What's your dad do for a living?

My cousin is kinda hot though, but her ass is bony, she's overly athletic

is my computer setup effay?

>>7641190
Don't do that. you should choose software engineer and learn C, C++, Assembly, Unix

and, more importantly, major in CS (not EE, CE, IT or any other shit)

>EE

>>7641220
>Don't do that. you should choose software engineer and learn C, C++, Assembly, Unix

I'm actually learning C right now (not in pic is K&R's C), and use a Unix OS and learn it a lot. I just wanted to be able to make websites that don't look too bad

>>7641114
cute af though

>>7641246
looks good, but i guess it's only your sleeping room?
Where'd you keep your books, sound system and clothes?

>>7641257
I have a one bedroom apartment to myself, so I have a kitchen and living room as well. Weirdly, the walk-in closet is attached to the living room instead. So, basically everything you mentioned is in there.

>>7641767
I used to work at an industrial warehouse that sold all that stuff (the pipes, 90s, unions, flanges, etc.) so I'm familiar with them, but I have no idea where to get them retail. Home Depot or something? Or would I actually have to go to a supply house?

>>7642220
That's phone mode nigga

My clothes are /fa/. My room is about as far from it as it gets.

>>7641237

What OS.

If you have a mac I will laugh at you for thinking that counts.

>>7638257
closet

or if you have a minimalist room, you also have a minimalist wardrobe

>>7642464
this looks like a richer version of me

what do you play on your g27 bruh

>>7642607
GT5/6 and Race '07 mostly.

Also, not exactly rich, just been collecting stuff for a long time.

>>7642644
you have shit taste in sims

dont talk to me

>>7641654
If its yours, you are retarded to keep your cameras like that.

>>7641108

lol

>>7642652
What are you playing then? I'm on a few year old laptop so old sims are really my only option for PC games, and iRacing is fucking bullshit with garbage physics.

Been meaning to try Asseto Corsa though. Simraceway is kind of fun too.

>>7642686
asseto corsa, LFS, and i play rfactor because easy internet fun

LFS has the best FFB, rfactor physics are shit

i might play RBR in a little while

Where is a good place to shop for non-macy core home decor? I wouldn't really know where to start

>>7642464
post fit

i'm too embarassed to post my room. it's about 12 ft x 8ft, and 2 of the walls are literally made out of plywood. it's in the basement of a houseshare i rent a room for $350.

gonna be moving in with my dad soon doe, will be stylin in a circa 1930's big house in the city built by some old department store magnet. completely remodeled by my

old wood floors are super creaky though, will be weird fuckin girls just down the hallway from my dad trying to sleep :/

>>7642697
I haven't played LFS in a while, pretty good game though. My problem with it is that I mostly want to drive licensed cars.

When I play Race '07 or Simraceway, 90% of my driving is in the classic cars since that's mostly what I'm into, and I mostly do time trials and AI races because my connection is garbage and I don't have enough visibility on one little screen to not bang into people when playing online.

>>7642695
I would but I'm not a gothninja and I'm kinda fat so I'll just get made fun of.

>>7642723
yeah i feel you, i like drifting, so i play LFS because i can edit the cars to have insane stats and customize every suspension setting perfectly, and i can tandem online in rfactor
assetto corsa has a drift mode now, too, which is actually really cool

>>7642755
My big problem with drifting is that my rig, while ok for most racing, is waaaaay too wobbly for constant countersteer.

Pic related btw, old Ikea table and about $30 worth of crap from Home Depot.

TV will be out soon though...

>>7642464

whut

the fuck

>>7642780
yeah, my table is just much much more wide, which can displace the force from the countersteer a lot better. still, my shifter is on the table so it's not realistic at all, and a rig would be really perfect.. but i need a new monitor first lol

gaming rig with 1280x1024 ;_:

>>7642734

>kinda fat

SURPRISE!

>>7639523
would snuggle on/10

does it have window anon?

>>7642842
I think that black scare on the right may be one

>>7637996
You speak the truth. Whenever I see a minimalist room, I just think, "Okay so you don't actually live there, huh?"

People have stuff. You have to put stuff in places.

>>7642851
*square

>inb4 it's a rectangle

I've since replaced the old xbox with a slim black one

>>7642829
I've lost like 35-40lb in six months though, so I'm almost where I want to be. I've gone from "lardass" to "guy with a gut" so yeah.

what the fuck r u doing here on /fa/?

>>7637533
Dude warehouse/studios are fucking drafty as hell. They're cool but I wouldn't live in one.

Been here since it was mostly menswear/dadcore/americana type shit, which is most of what I wear. I mostly come here for watch and shoe threads though.

Aside from that though, I'm actually interested in fashion, even if it's stuff I don't wear. I'm a photographer and I shoot some fashion stuff so I'm also involved through that.

kawaii as /fa/ck.

>>7643853
is that a hospital bed?!?!!?

>>7643859
nope, just a cheap as fuck bunk bed that's as old as my parents.
I live in cheap off campus housing.

>>7643859
i'll put you in one for free bitch

>>7642846
what kind of head board is that?

>>7643853
i would be uncomfortable even being in here for an hr

if u like it its okay tho :)

>>7643892
what seems uncomfortable?

>>7643900
it looks like a cubicle version of my grandmas house except with nerd shit sprayed all over it

>>7643914
haha, I guess "grandma's house with nerd shit sprayed all over it" kind of sums up my taste, although I do wish that my space was less cubicle-like. And I also don't see that much nerd shit in my room other than my Finn and Catbug plushies... both of which were gifts.

>>7641334

I really like Japanese architecture though I'm not too sure I'd want to actually live in a traditional Japanese house.

>>7644027
you probably wouldn't
>lots of bugs
>no central heating during the winter
>no air conditioner during the hot as fuck summer
>etc

although I do agree that they look nice.

>>7641137
that her? mirin

>>7644032
yeah. a professor of mine said he lived in one in Kyoto for a few years. He hated the shit out of it.

In winter you're more or less confined to the ground floor or you'll freeze, but in Summer you'll never leave the 2nd floor and your windows will ALWAYS be open.

He also mentioned that noise was an issue. The traditional houses in Kyoto were built RIGHT next to one another and weren't so good at dampening sound. Not only could you hear your neighbors all the time but you had to be careful of your own noise levels so as not to bother your neighbors. Like living in an apartment with paper walls...

>>7644027
>traditional Japanese house

What period nigga? If you don't know, then don't bother saying this shit.

>>7643853
are dudes allowed to have christmas lights in their room? asking for a friend...

>>7644079
In general. I like the Edo period merchant houses from Kyoto. The unagi no nedoko (though I think that was the name of the neighborhoods, not the houses. I think the houses were called "Machiya?") that had the storefront on the street, a courtyard garden, then the actual living area/house in the back.

The Samurai villas were pretty cool as well though they'd be far too ostentatious if you don't have a staff of servants.

Also, the general lack of furniture would kinda suck. I like to have lots of framed art and such hanging on the walls but that'd look a bit odd in a traditional Japanese house.

>>7644032
If I were super rich I'd build a Japanese house, but have all the screens actually be dual-layer frosted glass (or glass with paper over it) and have hidden central HVAC etc.

>>7644081
I sure think so. They look pretty and add a nice atmosphere, I think. It obviously depends on the type of room. If you're afraid of seeming too girly with it, you could always opt for LED strips instead.

>>7644129
I'm pretty sure people have done that before.

>>7644129
>>7644141
There are modernized Japanese homes nowadays that have central heat/AC, electric lights, etc... they're like a hybrid Western/Japanese thing. Pretty neat, though somewhat cramped. They buildings themselves are small and Japanese homes weren't meant for Western furniture...

>>7644150
I was thinking I'd have it more as a vacation home or maybe if I had a ton of land build it in a nice part of my property. I wouldn't live there full time, I've stayed in Japan in traditional housing and while it's fun, I wouldn't want to do it every day.

>>7642842
ComfyRoom anon here.
Yes, it's an attic room, so it has 2 attic windows.

>>7639497
do you think he wouldn't run into just as much garbage elsewhere?

>>7641137
not hot.

>>7637533

To be honest, it would probably be quite expensive to heat/uncomfortable when it's cold. It does look great, though.

>>7637746
w2c bed frame?

it's perfect
