how about getting a wall hanger for your guitar.
@patg7590 what is that? I don’t get the site.
to make a painting, furniture or whatever “POP,” your color of the wall or walls around it need to complement the your room or video, as you say. a warm brown background with blacks and whites and colors sets the pace for creativity and cosmopolitan flavors.
am i answering your question? foggy at this point.
find a funky original piece of artwork that says “music.” be careful not to go with commercial prints. it is so ‘90s.
What about a picture that says “Begining” in French. Then a piece of furniture like a small table
I like to see bookcases in a room.
At first I was thinking of some kind of smokey mirror, but when I looked at the video again, the room seems to need another picture. Perhaps a 3 picture set with a small bookcase underneath.
I do think you need something there. Because that wall is so symmetrical with the windows, I think it should be something of a size and continuity with the picture on the lef of the windows, but something that would also work with the desk grouping.
I like that for the room you showed, but is it too big? Would the table you already have, on the right in the video, be in the way?
@chyna maybe, it is too big. I’m searching around online. Need a smaller desk or table.
The room is very beautiful as is. For me, sometimes a little nothing is soothing. The “Fin” poster is nice.
I love the guitar idea. Functional art, FTW.
These are super cool! And they’re removable, so you can change them out when you want a new look. This is my own favorite.
Yeah, wall candles are perfect. I say go for those, they’ll look fantastic. :)
If you are looking to do something functional with the space, why not try a media tower? Otherwise, I like the idea of book shelf or wall candles.
The room’s great as it is. I would think you need a good sized plant in the corner to soften things up just a bit.
I’d get a couple of wall mount shelves and hang them on different spots.
It’s been a lot of fun to decorate and I’m still going at it.
This is what it was like when I first moved in. The (uncomfortable) brown leather futon is gone, obviously. It’s a small space (perfect for me, though), but, I love the amount of light and the whole look of the place.

Jmah: Keep in mind that every possession has to be dusted, repaired or replaced. I am at the point where I’d like to give away half my stuff. Sorry you don’t live around the corner.
A giant portriat of you!!
I vote for a houseplant to break up all the black and white. It screams for green . . .
Perhaps a 5’ palm that you place on the floor. Break up the industrial feeling . . .
I’m getting one of these early 1900’s crank phonograph from my g/f’s Uncle. The one in these pictures here looks exactly like it. I’m wondering if that would work? Cool thing is, I’m getting this for free (it’s worth about $500 as is). :)
Yea I second getting removable wall decals to complement the look of your room and change it when you feel like it
I put an antique saxophone there.
