Possible room

[telophase]

I've been monkeying around with room arrangement all day off and on, and this is the best one I've come up with so far.





I really like the Wall o'Books concept, and I'd find or make some sort of artwork that would go above the TV to fill in that space. rachelmanija got me a child's kimono and vest when she was in Japan last April, and I think they can go on that wall with the light switch, or they can go on the wall above the dresser.

This also solves the problem I had with so much of my furniture being waist-high or lower, and the walls all being empty.

The art table would have one of the pices of fabric I've got lying around thrown on it, to transfer it into a side table/place to hide stuff.

Hm. Have to think on it.

Very interesting. You might be able to move the loveseat a smidge closer to the futon (in the direction of the porch) and use the file cabinet as an end table, if you don't want it in front of the door. Or stick it next to the microwave.

How about turning the awkward wall into an art gallery? And frame the light switch. ;)

:D I think something for sure will go up on the awkward wall, even if I have to paint it myself. Currently, there's a big (3.5' tall) picture of Manji from Blade of the Immortal gracing the wall right next to the kitchen, because I had an awkward space in the last apartment. And there's a big painting of Anotsu from the same manga over my bed, for the same reason.

Wait - new camera - I can have pics online in two minutes! Manji picture next to kitchen (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v280/telophase14/manji.jpg). (I'm in the stage of completely overhauling the apartmetn that involves me throwing everything I own on the floor. :) Anotsu in the bedroom (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v280/telophase14/anotsu.jpg).

COme to think of it, I have this small storage bench (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v280/telophase14/bench.jpg) in the bedroom that's not doing anything now that I have the tall curtains up there which can be moved into the living room to help fill awkward spaces... (that pile of clothes on the floor in front of it is destined for Goodwill - I just have to take them there.)
