why do people want to sit on animals are you kidding me? Think of the constant making GBS threads, the piss, the honking of tiny hedgehogs. Then you sit on the loving thing and you'd have to get it reupholstered because a bunch of hedgehogs died because of your loving mass.

 I want to make a joke about Prada's love of white walls, but they have a stated a preference for owning furniture.

I have had enough of these motherfucking words on these motherfucking walls    lol look how small the bedrooms are though.   Is that an old window frame with teeny tiny shutters?  It's all lipstick on a pig though as the other half of the duplex is falling apart. Which is why the house is listed as 2472sf when only ~1000 is actually habitable.. quote:Due to a job transfer only half the house has been renovated. Foundation repairs were only finished on half the property and repairs are still needed on the other side. Demo work has already been started and groundwork for plumbing has already been inspected. Foundation still needs poured on other half or possibly torn down and build a garage? So much opportunity and rare 1 acre lot in town on a beautiful piece of property.

Also, blame instagram/Pinterest for convincing people that they ~*need*~ words on every loving thing. I think it’s another element in the class of decorations people put up just to show to other people, except they can easily take a picture of it to deliver a very explicit message. It’s like reading a dating profile for a house.

Dunno if this is necessarily interior design, but I'm looking for input. Working on converting what has been the office to a den/guestroom. I have a vintage couch in the space already, it's 78" long x 36" deep. My house is old (built in 1926) so the room is pretty small, 9.5x11'. I want to put a sleeper sofa (54" wide) in there, plus a TV. To complicate matters this is a bedroom so there's a closet taking up a 3' section of one wall. Now I can get the 2 couches in there, but due to the layout then the tv ends up in a position where there's no good viewing angle. I'm mentally jigsawing pieces around but I can't get a logical layout going. The couch is from the 40's and while it needs a good cleaning and some new foam in the cushions it's a really nice piece and I'd prefer not to ditch it, but it's such a behemoth for the space. I don't have anywhere else to put it - I've only got 816 SF. The TV is sort of mandatory as well, I'm moving it out of my bedroom to free up some space. So, get rid of the land mass couch? Keep rejiggering everything until it fits even if it's a suboptimal layout? What would you, random goon, do?

A) Forget about the sleeper sofa and make guests sleep on the old, dirty, uncomfortable couch B) Accept that you'll never have the old couch cleaned, restuffed, and reupholstered, and sell it to some other sap who believes he'll definitely have it done any day now

If you actually will have the old couch cleaned and redone, that's great, keep it and use it as a daybed for guests, forgetting the sleeper sofa.

Get rid of the land mass couch, put something of a sensible size in. If t doesn’t fit the space, it doesn’t fit the space. No cleaning or upholstery changes that.

Air mattresses are pretty chilly to sleep on compared to a mattress, so be prepared to provide extra blankets, or put a topper on the air mattress.

Mine’s 3 years so far, and I routinely have guests tell me it’s more comfortable than hotel beds they’ve slept on. American Leather, middle-tier topping. It also feels like a couch to sit on, without sagging. (No coil springs.)

peanut posted:They deflate and fold up, ya know (I'd probably store it under the couch). Basically anything I do with my house is like a jigsaw puzzle trying to make pieces fit. Due to its age I'm limited on where the outlets are, space available, and having a minimum amount of furniture to actually have a living space and not some sort of "sit on a milk crate" poo poo. It's a small place but pretty dang nice and my mortgage is only $485 since I bought it 15 years ago before the market went nuts. I ain't moving until I die

If you're sure you're not moving outside of some extreme duress, then probably lean towards ditching the couch that's too big for your house. It's never going to really fit and you'll spend years just shuffling it from room to room trying to force it. 40's probably means some late art-deco behemoth? Those aren't that uncommon, so I'd sell the one you have now and go look for a smaller one in that style instead.

Fill the air mattress with helium and glue it to the ceiling between uses. You've got cubics of feet up there you aren't even using.

I guess it's just weird to me that a giant fuckoff couch crowding the room is somehow fine, but a one-square-foot inflatable mattress in the closet is out of the question. You also need to evaluate how often you actually have people over. Like if someone is over every weekend, it might make sense to buy a fold-out, but if this is one of those "a few times a year" instances, just do the air mattress. e: I'd also evaluate if you actually need a TV in the guest room. Like do you imagine people visiting will feel like something is missing if they can't sit in their room and watch TV? I wouldn't put a TV in there if it means sacrificing some superior furniture layout, just because you think you "should", or just because you got a new one and you're trying to repurpose old junk. You can always sell/donate the TV PRADA SLUT fucked around with this message at 01:25 on Jan 19, 2018 |

I think what I'll do is make some footprints out of cardboard or whatever for the intended furniture. If I can't make things work I'll get rid of the old sofa, spending the money I would have used for the restuffing on a new piece.

If you can’t store an inflatable air mattress you have too much poo poo. I’m not convinced you even need the TV. It sounds like you’re just looking for an excuse for something to do with it. I’d sell/donate it. If you do the air mattress you can keep the couch, assuming the couch looks fine in there as-is.
