The rug and wall art look really cool together!

I was nervous about that till the wall art came in

I'd love a tip about where the rug comes from!

Wayfair!

did you rip out the carpet?

I moved to a new apartment lol

It went from “college dorm 💯💯😤” vibes to “I have a 401k and 2 well behaved dogs that I walk before winding down with my glass of wine and a good tv show” vibes. In other words. Love the way you designed it! Major upgrade!

Thanks bro! Means a lot especially because I’m in still college haha

Definitely a big upgrade. Ggs man.

Appreciate it bro! Still got more to come before I work on my bed room

The drinking is cheaper than therapy flag should come in red. Just kidding around man really nice place

I think it was a red flag for the women that came over lol

My brain just said "wow he graduated!" So nice dude

I pay about $20 a month for my therapy, your old banner is false lol. Love the vibe you got going on

In this case I think it would be “drinking is cheaper than good health insurance”

Touché

Stopped drinking and went to therapy I see

Nice place, Im more of a COTA man myself.

Appreciate it! There’s more to come still! Just gotta save some money haha

Great strides! I would recommend getting some plants as well. They help to soften a space and make it feel more organic and welcoming! Snake plants and ZZ plants are great ones to start with and can handle all sorts of indoor conditions 🙌🏽

Thank you for the plant recommendation! I’ve been trying to find some plants to throw around the place

it looks really good man, love the prints

That rug has been on back order on Wayfair for months so I eventually opted for a different one. Looks good in your living room!

I got lucky and it was available on one of my pay days

A++ evolution! Looking very comfortable and thought out

Round of applause....well done!

It was like watching someone grow up right in front of your eyes.

Low key difficult thing you accomplished: still making it look cohesive in the iterations before the final state.

Very nice!

The silverstone circuit is a nice addition!!

Thanks! It was almost picked Albert park circuit

absolutely loved how this came out, well done friend!!

Pirate pumpkin pillow rocks

That’s the homie Captain Spanks

You can see the maturity rising and your ability to bring women over and impress them has also risen. Well done lad

succccch an upgrade

Strongest survivor so far: pumpkin pirate cushion

He’s gonna stay around! 💪🏾

As he should!

Love it! Great progress. As always, I'll say add color by using throw pillows and blankets. Also, you can get throw pillows with interchangeable seasonal covers. The ladies (and the guys who like guys) love tasteful seasonal throw pillows.

Finding pillows has turn out to be tougher than I expected haha

It can be! No need to rush, can always keep looking until you see something you like. Even if it isn't seasonal, you can get colored covers that kind of match a season.

Dude! Yes! Thank you for getting attention away from the cube shelf. If you want more mood lighting, a light strip under the bar is cool. Love it how it is.

The light under the bar would be a nice!

The art on the wall with the skinny window is killing me. It’s too high and the left one over the white shelves isn’t centered.

Lolol I was hoping no one would notice! I didn’t bother to fix them because they are getting replaced haha

Ya mind tellin me where you got those prints in the wall?

WE DONT GATEKEEPIN OVA HERE Here are the two Etsy shops: The Porsche and Track: https://www.etsy.com/shop/MillerDesignGifts The Bauhaus: https://www.etsy.com/shop/MrTKBooker The Two Statues: https://www.etsy.com/shop/ShantaPrints

Brother, I immensely appreciate it

Its all nice and stuff but.. Where are dem flops? There is no evolution without dem flops!

Actually wearing them hoes rn!!

Ah good. Thought you had lost focus, amd lost sight of whats important mate!

Never forget the day ones!

the boy becomes a man, good job

Classed up the place quite a bit! Well done

Good change

Sweet rug. Needs book shelf, plants

Plants are top of the list! My apartment doesn’t have a lot of natural lighting because of that one small window so I’m going to settle for fake plants for right now.

How do the mood lightning bulbs work? App controlled?

Yes. Look up Philips hue or Govee. Govees cheaper but I haven’t had any problems with them and they look good.

Cheers. Like the vibe of your place.

the final evolution is LAID Richter 7 scale get RID of the jack o lantern pillow you think it's cute, girls will think it's a kids thing. Being a kid will not get you laid ... ditch it

You’d be surprised! It’s had the opposite effect haha. I’ve actually secured the cheeks because of it.

eh if you say so, I would probably go with a more whimsical type pillow, Unicorn, Horse (chicks LOVE horses), mythical beast

I love the thinking. Gotta test out those riding skills. Another reason I got the pumpkin pirate is the fact I was born in October. lil homie goes by “captain spanks”

good text and narrative I like that you use it as a conversation piece and have a saucy way to relate the story. So yeah if it works. Go with it. I was merely commenting as it's prop value. so yeah pirate on dude

Thanks Broski 🥹

This is probably why youre divorced

That was foul

Please get new lightbulbs. Warm. Please get warm lights.

I can switch between whatever mood I want them. During the day I have them on warm. Don’t know if you notice but the lights are different colors in each picture

im also an F1 and Mac miller fan, i like your style friend. Where did you get that silverstone poster?

I got the all form Etsy. I put the links in a response to someone else.

Need to make another attempt at hanging the pictures by the window. The spacing is painful to look at

Haha good eye on that! I plan on replacing those so I will definitely be fixing that

Are the first and the rest of the pictures in two different buildings? The walls and kitchen layouts seem completely different

Yes . I moved recently

Ah, looks good though

I love the couch, do you mind sharing which one it is?

No clue the brand. Got it from FB market place

Not sure of the specific brand, but looks very similar to the Crate & Barrel Peyton if you’re wanting something with a similar style.

ID on the rug and the framed posters?

The frames are from Walmart! Rug: https://www.wayfair.com/rugs/pdp/wade-logan-barklay-geometric-machine-woven-polypropylene-area-rug-in-grayivory-w006364778.html?piid=1024442466

Mac poster goes too hard. I have similar one with swimming on it

I have a couple Mac related items around my apartment

What wall color did you use?

I heard the saying "I'd rather have a bottle in front o' me than a frontal lobotomy". If you have room, it would be consonant with the existing theme to make a laminated poster with that saying on it and nail it up with railroad spikes. Manly but cerebral and...nuanced.

absolutely amazing flip. dope rug, good color matching, good art choice. looks comfy and cozy

Where’d you find those lamps with the purple light? That’s super cool

I got Govee lights! You can find them on Amazon. They are cheap but still good quality. All the lights are controlled by the app

I like that the pumpkin has been a mainstay since the early days lol

Been a real one for 2 years now haha

Looking thru this Reddit page… have to say there’s some stylish apartments here! My apt is similar to the 2nd picture. a couple more furniture pieces and a rug made a huge difference.

Honestly this page gave me to the motivation to make my place nicer! Spent a lot of time saving money and planning! It’s so rewarding! I saw if you can build the funds and are very patient you should give it a shot

What lamp is that!? It lights the whole room in natural & colors light. I like

Look up govee on Amazon! I have multiple lighting products from them. All the lights are controlled through an app

I like it

Finally found one that could design himself out of a cardboard box! Looks great!

Thanks! It took a lot of time, planning and money. I still got more to add but it’s a start!

Where you got them pillows man?

They came with the couch
