I'm buying furniture for my new apartment and want some second opinions. All of it is second hand off of craigslist and I'm trying to narrow down or decide between certain options. I'll start with some picks of the living space empty so you get the style. Pics suck but w/e.
If you have any online recommendations for furniture (ie ikea stuff) link it and I'll take a look.
This is a couch I really think I wanna buy
private entrance to apt

kitchen space (kinda lame imo)
you can see a door that leads to the hallway which connects to entrance and side bedroom
section between kitchen and living room
thinking about putting up something to partition the spaces more.
reverse side of living room
bathroom that connects off of living room
this is the bedroom

Good enough to see the style of the apartment. Now I'm gonna throw on some of the craigslist finds I had

Get this user
everything i see is fucking nice .
would use everything .
love those pillars between kitchen and living room .
seconding.
Do not even buy furniture at all. it's quite unnecessary. All you need is clothes. spend all your money on clothers. Your entire living space should be filled with nothing but clothes and footwear. Sleep on a pile of laundry. Burn clothes that become even a bit out of style and use it to cook. shower in the tears of r/malefashionadvice. Clothes are all you need.
Most everything you posted looks alright, things to consider.
1. bedbugs, be ever watchful with used furniture. They are a fucking nightmare to get rid of. I had them for about 3 weeks years ago and as autistic as it sounds I really do have mild ptsd from them and will bolt awake at night if I think I feel something crawling on me.
2. Don't forget to budget for shit to put up on the walls. I never have had any luck finding cool wall art second hand but ymmv, amazon/ikea have decent wall art for fair prices, avoid places like world market, their prices for mass produced china shit are ridiculous
this with these I also like but maybe for another room or against the bay window to put plants on
Weeding through shit on craigslist is god awful
I have some more stuff I was looking at
think this mirror is worth $125 or should i try to get it lower
...
I will have papers and receipts and other random shit to store
should I use a filing cabinet to store it all? or something else ...
worth $100 though?
that place looks like it smells of mold and humidity
redpill me on this lamp
this would look sick in that space. I'd stick with more industrial/modern furniture. More of the late 40s looking stuff will make the whole space feel to stuffy since the apartment itself is so non-neutral
get this and the chairs with metal legs
it looks kinda small
You should always try to get furniture lower.
Is it brass or some sort of metal? Could see it going for 80-100 but if it's rly good shape then 125 is fine
thinking about buying this, in a little bit of a worse of condition ofc
pic related for a seat in a windowed porch?
how do these 2 dressers look
...
Do it, illuminated gauges are aesthetic as
Absolutely do
All depends on your personal style man, given the average age of Veeky Forums you're going to mostly be recommended modern and mid century furniture by us folk. If you wouldn't mind it would be great if you could post a fit that describes you well, IMO your apartment should complement who you are.
