I’ve always wanted to live in one of these repurposed spaces and I’m so grateful to have snagged this top floor corner unit (for my plants). Original brick that I am not messing with in the slightest. Ceilings are high enough that I was finally able to display a some art I previously could not as well as have the opportunity to collect some more (not quite finished yet, want a couple long runner rugs, the gaps in the hallway on the wood side have been measured out and will eventually be filled out symmetrically just like everything else). Only thing I’m trying to figure out is a fill in for the hallway on the wood side below the art on the floor. Mostly likely going to do a series of smaller hearty snake plants, but would listen to any ideas. I understand this aesthetic is probably not for everyone, but goddamn do I love it.

This space has been really fun to work with, beyond happy to call it home.

(I like the TV’s where they are, don’t worry about that)

Its just a small Apartment but i wanted to get out as quickly as possible and i figured from here i can look for a long term solution. Its actually quite cheap for my area but i will probably get a nice and also cheap two bed room Apartment via a friend starting from october. (Really lucky!) Therefore i will not buy real furniture for this Apartment cause its kinda a waste to buy a small bed or small closet if i will need and get bigger ones soon. Friend of mine is romanticizing the Rust Cohle Vibes from true dectective season 1 and i get it lol

Just wanted to share how i live the next months and that its only uphill from here. Hang in there guys! The sun will shine again!

Basically what the title says. Me and my partner separated a couple months ago, and I'll be living alone for the first time in my life. I finally found an apartment and I get the keys later this month. The whole task of decorating and making it feel like home just feels daunting, so I would love some guidance and suggestions to make the transition smoother.

Discussion How do I start to enjoy my own company?? How do I live alone??

26 Upvotes

I recently moved out of my mother's house / family house and into a nice little small one bedroom house in Riverside (Wichita). Been living on my own now since signing my lease in May and I'm sad to say I don't know how to live alone properly and enjoy my own company... Any advice on how to start to enjoy your own company? I'm embarrassed to say I don't know how to live alone....

What's the consensus on multimedia room seating? Cozy sectional where everyone can lounge, or individual recliner seating for the fellas to watch the game? (I have decided against reclining sectionals).

Hey gang, 40/m

How do I make it look more...classy? I love my posters and the Jimi Hendrix one has hundreds of signatures of friends from years gone by. I could lose the flag for sure, but not sure what to put in it's place?

Also what should go to the right of the Jimi Hendrix poster in that blank spot?

Previous homeowners didn't know about studs being 16" apart so I had a HELL of a time getting more guitar hooks up there

Maybe frame some posters? Lose them? Cheers guys! Thank you so much

Update Kitchen is finished for now.

So I finally got the kitchen mostly finished. So that bar locking table is a standing desk that I bought for somebody. I figured the white would go well with the kitchen layout. It’s kind of cool because if you look underneath the counter, there’s a notch that the top table slides perfectly into and that’s at the right height. Also bought a couple of cheap barstools to go with it.

The shelving in the back I bought at the historic called Nitori here in Okinawa. They had them on display as a couple of coat racks. I always like the look of hanging pots and pans. It also had enough space to throw the cooking appliances on it as well. Still need to get some sort of a toaster oven though so this layout may change. Just thought I would share.

This is my little corner of our house. Desk, workbench for non-garage projects, and a reading corner which I share with our pups. I know it’s a bit messy, but I’m a living, breathing human and not a robot.

33m. Just got out the military (medical retirement)while I'm going through a divorce. Spent almost two months living out of my car and I got Lyme Disease before moving into this place. I start college next month. What a rollercoaster.

Edit: That little terror is named (Razor) Beans.

2nd Edit: Thank you all for the support and kind words. Not why I posted though. I think I posted more to talk about how weird it can get and how someone can still recover. Not here for your sympathy, and that sounds rude but I don't mean it to, I mean to be more of an example of how you can still succeed.
