I'm gonna eventually post some pictures of my tiny beige box and ask for some interior design advice because currently my only conscious design choices have been a painting of a cat and a modern repro of an Edison Electric Light sign (Posted directly underneath a 12v LED lamp). But before that, I'd like some input on terminology. I happen to really like mid-century modern furniture, although what I like is actually the really weird stuff that looks like it rolled off the set of the Jetsons, with the thin columns and semi-organic shapes and disc-shaped accents. Is there a specific term for that style? And does anyone still make it?

...I could afford the $175 magazine holder! Probably should have expected that actual artistic furniture would have an actual artistic price tag attached.

That's how I decorate rooms in the Sims when I'm bored with building and just want a functional space, but still want to remember to go back and decorate later.

I mean, I wouldn't do it with a lovely prefab playplace, but if I could rig it so an upstairs window let out onto a rope bridge to a bitchin' tree fort, hell yes. And I could let kids use it, I guess.

Youth Decay posted:https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/195-Wild-Rose-Ln-Sagle-ID-83860/221492972_zpid/ This, however, wouldn't look incredibly out of place as some rich out-of-towner's weekend getaway up here in Alaska. Of course, unless that's lived in through the winter so the snowload can be managed, they'd be likely to come back to a pile of splintered rubble where their whatever-you-call-it had been.

The edges of the room say "hipster loft." The center says "hunting lodge." I like the idea of that coffee table. In practice I can see several issues.

I'm... actually kind of on board with giraffe-pattern flooring? I could see using it as an element in an entire animal-print room. Zebra-print rug, leopard-print sofa, tiger wall hanging. All fake, of course. Throw in some random shape sculptures and neon for maximum 80s.

I want that... couch? Lounge? Whatever the foreground furnishing is. I'm assuming it costs several thousand dollars. ...If I bought some dowels and a mega pack of paper towels, though...

Metaline posted:That Albuquerque MCM is my dream house, holy bajoli. It would be the appropriate skeleton to hang my theoretical atomic-to-cyber furniture on. I actually don't know if "cyber" is the right descriptor, like the advancement of "space-age" furniture after the 50s atomica and actual space age.

Youth Decay posted:excuse me what the gently caress I can dig it. It's meant to evoke the age and grandeur of a plastered villa that's crumbled a little showing the brickwork underneath. It's not really my aesthetic, I wouldn't mix brick and stone, and I wouldn't do it in the bathroom (Maybe it would be, like, patio accents, pool house, you know, something exterior) but it's well-executed. Not like the tumorous stick-on brickwork you can find for mcmansions. SkyeAuroline posted:You will. I won't. These bathrooms need to be shamed.

Azza Bamboo posted:They're trying to invoke the sublime by challenging what it is to be a sink: playing with its form and materials. It's a cute concept, but it's so heavily focused on the individual's own idea that it's almost masturbatory in its existence. This demonstrates no practical skill like the gaudy rococo sinks of French manors, nor does it demonstrate any consideration to function like the typical porcelain sink. These sinks are merely an idea someone had the funds and the contacts to bring into being. As a work of art it's on the same level as those YouTube videos where chirpy Australians decide what next to throw off a large tower. Valid, but vacuous and self aggrandising no less, much like this post. I sort of like the concept a few of them are going for, but I would appreciate more focus on function. Like that one that's just a kind of natural-looking depression, I could see that as a nice theme piece in a further nature-themed bathroom- wait, shower gravel, abort, abort. But no, if you made it, like, a constant flow and deep/wide enough that you could actually wash your hands in it, it would be like washing your hands in a mountain stream, and if that's an aesthetic you're going for, I can get behind it. Granted, the only constant-flow plumbing I've ever seen was at Evans Plunge, a hot spring water park.

Not the worst use of storage tub lids I've seen. Hell, not the worst use I've perpetrated.
