I’m moving soon and I’ve 0 instinct for that, so looking for help and ideas :)

Joke aside, look into Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing : New Horizons home decor tutorials. They give you great ideas and the most important part: they don’t try to shill some brand/furniture/home decor course
Also, you should put practicality over everything else, function is the most important. You need a big desk for you hobbies but it looks kinda goofy in your small room ? Not a problem it is functional.
For arranging your furniture check out Dear Modern’s videos. The things he says sound kinda like spiritual stuff (idk if you are into that, it doesn’t matter tbh), however the advice is solid and it will prevent you from feeling bad in your room due to the furniture arrangement.
Good luck with creating a room that will fit you !
2nd person recommending that channel. I know what to watch tonight.
Didn’t expect a stardew valley recommendation, but will give it a try too. Can’t hurt!
Thanks, wise Owl!
You’re welcome ! (I’d say that ACNH is better in this case because of the 3D)
“guys really live in apartments like this and don’t see any issue”
Nosy people who can’t mind their own damn business really judge people for things as benign as this and don’t see any issue.

Have a woman do it, or end up in a man cave like me.
Men will see this and go ‘hell yeah’

Prioritize having it fit your needs best instead of pleasing other people who don’t even live in your home. Don’t fret if it might look bad to someone else as long as it looks good to you, and don’t forget that functionality should come first. There’s so much BS styling for the sake of styling that make homes more difficult to actually live in and use the amenities of.
Also, I find that you get used to your home to the point where any decorations fade into the background so fast that it’s rarely worth it to spend a ton of effort to make it look pretty. You’re not going to appreciate or even notice it just a month or two after you redecorate.
“Single with 3 roommates at a crap job just moved in” style.

If you’re working on a budget like I was when starting out on my own, I recommend your first purchase to be a bed frame. You can use Ceaigslist / FB marketplace to find some really cheap used options. From there, you can start buying (used) furniture that matches the bed frame. Personally, I needed a nightstand immediately after the bed frame because I wanted to put my glasses somewhere.
You should get a wall mount for the TV. Lot of people in the room? Need more space? Voila! Pushes right into the wall!
Impressive :D Could just do that for the joke 🤔😄
I’d suggest a bed frame and unblocking any vents or outlets.
Yes, a lot of people view the lack of a bed frame as negative. If you’re dating or otherwise having folks in your room besides a single long term partner you may want to get one so people don’t view it as a problem.
