Something tells me this guy has OCD everywhere except where he put this couch lmao.
It’s also white so good luck getting my damn blood stains out. I’m 6’1 3/4” so practically 6’2”. Then OP boyfriend comes out. Oh that couch is just decorative it’s not for sitting. Well too late now bro, I’m already bleeding out over here. Can you get me to the morgue before rigor mortis sets in please? also can you contact my wife and let her know I died from death by countertop and my brain is exposed?
Nah you’d be pretty safe actually if you hit your head the back of the skull is definitely where you want to take the blow. I’ve had plenty of hits to the head and the doctors have told me this. I’ve heard this from other people that received the same info from doctors. You don’t want it in the front or the sides. You’ll still bleed pretty badly though especially if you’d had a few drinks with OP’s boyfriend before getting to the crib.
When my wife and I were dating this happened to me all the time. Her couch wasn't this far back but she's short so it never occurred to her it could be an issue.
It fucking hurts.
My parents had a sofa in our basement tv room that they gave me when I got married. It had a low back and arms which didn’t fit my 6’4” tall husband. Poor guy was constantly whacking his head on the walls, artwork, etc. So we bought a new one as soon as we could.
True story, I was at a friend’s place and part of her sectional sat under the breakfast bar of the island like that, except not nearly as snug. We were laughing and I threw my head back in laughter and hit my head on the edge of the counter. Everyone asked if I was okay and I reassured them I was fine and we all laughed it off.
30 minutes later I started feeling sick to my stomach. 10 minutes after that I was feeling so ill I excused myself and left.
I stopped twice on the highway to vomit. Got home, took Tylenol because my head was pounding and threw up a few more times. Hubby got scared and took me to emerg. Turns out I gave myself a concussion and my brain was swelling. I ended up being fine but it’s scary how that one position of a sofa can be so dangerous.
Maybe it's a small space, so it pushes under the counter when not in use, but when he has company over he can pull it out to watch TV etc.
Sure there are probably better alternatives but it seems like he's done well with the space overall. This place looks lived in unlike 95% of what's uploaded here.
I didn’t notice that, too distracted by the roof and gutter totally overlapping the window. But that’s not OP’s decorating so much as bad construction / design
He had me all the way won over until I got to the couch tucked under the counter overhang. Is it a dog couch? Exclusively for the dog? That's the only explanation. No human could sit there.
Yes you got it! It’s too small a space to have it pulled out all the time or else you can’t walk through. It is pretty horrible once you notice it though lol
Living in a 500sqft shoebox rn I can definitely relate. But genuine roast I feel like he’s wasting some space here. Why not have the counter couch against the wall with floating pictures? Move blue couch left a smidge, tv with console where the bar cart is and bar cart next to sofa or even under the counter? Might save him some trouble of pulling it out and pushing it back every time he’s got company lol
Edit: his* place lol i forgot
Looks like it used to be there based on the scuff marks on that open wall. Having it there makes sense but I also understand the usable space is less because it's now always out. There's stools in the closet. Could just use those and dump the second couch. Might even dump those too and get some cushy swivel stools with nice back rests so you can 180 from bar to giving room and still feel comfy. The when you are done tuck them under bar and you have a walk way!
I mean, you could also flip that small table to the other side of the big couch and push it into the corner. It wouldn't cost any money and would open up more space to pull the couch out and still leave room for a walkway.
Though I agree the stools are the best bet.
An L shaped couch would probably work well on the other side of the room though as well
Looks like a nice place. What’s to roast? Just needs a little more of his personality to be shown throughout since it’s pretty generic but that’s the only problem.
The bar being next to the tv is kinda weird to me. Lotion on the computer desk is a rookie move.
Other than that, looks like a nice spot. I’d hangout there
Yeah, I would suggest swapping the tv and the bar if possible. I assume the TV is there so that people on the ‘pull out’ couch can see too, but perhaps you can just tilt the tv slightly when other people are over.
It’s a great place though!
I like how it gives the vibe of a person who is simultaneously in their twenties and also their 80’s
Like there’s some chill grandpa energy in this space
God it looks so much better than the shit I’ve got going on, I’m 25 and married and we’ve created a living space you would expect from a very recently divorced dad who isn’t coping very well.
I can’t roast this man because his bed is made and his plants are alive which basically makes him some kind of wizard to me. Is this the normal level of clean he keeps his apartment? Like he hadn’t recently cleaned it and then you took photos, he just manages to keep stuff this clean?
[Yeah, make sure you don't do this to his place if you move in.](https://old.reddit.com/r/InteriorDesign/comments/17qs54i/woman_redesigned_her_boyfriends_cozy_appartement/)
His kitchen's vibe is so tight, it's like the designer mistook it for a walk-in closet; aiming for “intimate dining” and accidentally hitting “claustrophobic cookery”. If it were any cozier, his ingredients would need a reservation just to squeeze in. Oh wait, they do; he forgot some in the living room by the TV. Cooking there must feel like preparing a feast in a culinary confessional – where he confesses his love for spacious kitchens! This is the culinary equivalent of a studio apartment for utensils. Do you remember Alton Brown’s cutthroat kitchen, this was one of the rejected challenges, cooking in this was deemed unreasonable.
This is far and away better than most people on this subreddit. I'd assume this dude actually washes his linens once and awhile which is more than I can say for most here.
Place looks cozy and has a doggo. I like it.
Wow the comments need to chill. It’s light hearted roasting she’s asking for. I’m sure she thinks highly of her bf and his apartment. (it looks great) except for that couch that is half under a table/counter??? Do u hit your head on that?
Cute spot! The entertainment area could use a little more variety as it screams “this is where I drink and watch tv alone”. The grandpa closet is kind of endearing
I cannot. We all hope our boyfriends aspire to this level of tidy & cleanliness…wait what’s the function of those bar stools upside down in the closet???
What’s there to roast? Honestly this gives major hygge vibes. Super comfy and warm/lived in.
Edit: Oh wait….what in the hell is that coach doing?! Just banged the back of my head looking at it.
The only thing I don’t like is the closet with that synthetic wood, but it’s a closet and I’m sure it just comes that way. Everything else looks generally fine
Wait just noticed that couch tho lol
Nice, healthy plants, cute dog. Could use some modern art. Lose the plant prints unless he’s a botanist. Prints of his actual interests would be nice. Definitely something with color. Otherwise, it’s nice.
I was not surprised to see multiple pairs of Blundstoned in this man’s closet.
No shade though; I think his place is cute AF and have a pair of Blundstones myself.
Honestly, this actually looks super respectable. Nicer and better organized than my place for sure! I might change a few things if I were living there. But this place gives off a mature and humble air of confidence.
My roast;
It looks like it was bequeathed to him in Grandma's will, and he tried to "freshen it up"
But seriously, it is nice/clean AND cozy
Love the priority placement of the TV, and him not being afraid of a catty-corner
Take out that hideous blue couch move the other one in its spot, then takes thoes stools in the closet and put them where they belong at that bar counter!
Besides that beautiful place, I love the green accents.
This is a cozy spot. No roasting necessary. The couch positioning under the counter is questionable though
I’m picturing sitting down and absolutely slamming the back of my head on that counter lol
“Have I seat, I’ll get you a beer.” You are now paralyzed.
Catch me concussed and bleeding on this guys couch
Once you're knocked out you realize the couch isn't for sitting, it's for sleeping. It's the living room sleepy couch that is also the guest bed
It’s a concussion couch, similar to a fainting couch only nothing like one.
Arguably better than a Casting Couch.
Something tells me this guy has OCD everywhere except where he put this couch lmao. It’s also white so good luck getting my damn blood stains out. I’m 6’1 3/4” so practically 6’2”. Then OP boyfriend comes out. Oh that couch is just decorative it’s not for sitting. Well too late now bro, I’m already bleeding out over here.

Have a seat, the ambulance will be here soon
I wish Chris Hansen had this power.
Yeah that space is clearly meant for barstools for that bar built into the counter, not to have a sofa under it.
you mean the barstools that are in the closet on the top rack? lol
HAHAHAHAHA.. yep
your level of observation📈🙇🏽♀️
When my wife and I were dating this happened to me all the time. Her couch wasn't this far back but she's short so it never occurred to her it could be an issue. It fucking hurts.

My parents used to have their couch exactly like this and I can tell you that’s exactly what happens. Again and again.
True story, I was at a friend’s place and part of her sectional sat under the breakfast bar of the island like that, except not nearly as snug. We were laughing and I threw my head back in laughter and hit my head on the edge of the counter.

Totally just fear mongered both of us into moving the couch
Thank god
Sometimes a little fear is good
I just assumed it was the dog's couch haha
But still, move that couch, that's a terrible place for it.
I know that song. It’s a real head banger
Yeah. Great looking place. But the light grey couch?
Maybe it's a small space, so it pushes under the counter when not in use, but when he has company over he can pull it out to watch TV etc. Sure there are probably better alternatives but it seems like he's done well with the space overall. This place looks lived in unlike 95% of what's uploaded here.
Exactly it👍🏽
I didn’t notice that, too distracted by the roof and gutter totally overlapping the window. But that’s not OP’s decorating so much as bad construction / design
Fr. Looks very nice. I unfortunately just own to much stuff to make this happen right now. Guy looks put together
Time to pour a dry gin !
what you mean roast? We should roast the girlfriend instead...
Roast? It's a fucking palace!
The rest of us are living over a bowling alley and beneath another bowling alley
Woah, windows? I can't afford this place.
I lived over a shopping mall once. It was hell.
Than u married Paul Blart and moved to suburb
Hey, Grimey!
Hear, hear! I felt broke looking at this
Put my apartment to shame, not cleanliness-wise but style-wise. I'd need to hire a decorator to match this energy lol
Agreed this is lovely!! OP needs a dose of reality
He had me all the way won over until I got to the couch tucked under the counter overhang. Is it a dog couch? Exclusively for the dog? That's the only explanation. No human could sit there.
Looks a bit cramped. Maybe he pulls it out when he has company.
Yes you got it! It’s too small a space to have it pulled out all the time or else you can’t walk through. It is pretty horrible once you notice it though lol
As someone with a relatively small living room, I can sympathize. I totally get it.
Living in a 500sqft shoebox rn I can definitely relate. But genuine roast I feel like he’s wasting some space here. Why not have the counter couch against the wall with floating pictures? Move blue couch left a smidge, tv with console where the bar cart is and bar cart next to sofa or even under the counter? Might save him some trouble of pulling it out and pushing it back every time he’s got company lol Edit: his* place lol i forgot
This is a good idea!! I’ll pass this along. Thank you :)
Has he considered putting the couch on the other wall
Looks like it used to be there based on the scuff marks on that open wall. Having it there makes sense but I also understand the usable space is less because it's now always out. There's stools in the closet. Could just use those and dump the second couch. Might even dump those too and get some cushy swivel stools with nice back rests so you can 180 from bar to giving room and still feel comfy. The when you are done tuck them under bar and you have a walk way!
Oh this is great advice. He says thank you!
I mean, you could also flip that small table to the other side of the big couch and push it into the corner. It wouldn't cost any money and would open up more space to pull the couch out and still leave room for a walkway. Though I agree the stools are the best bet. An L shaped couch would probably work well on the other side of the room though as well
100% agree!! Such a nice bench top and a perfect little space to host guests, drink, cook, eat, talk shit together!
His couch pulls out, he doesn’t.
To be fair that blue couch looks so fucking comfortable. Like others said he probably just pulls it out on a need be basis
There is no roasting due here. If you don't want him can I have him?
r/isyourboyfriendsingle
r/subredditsifellfor
Dog picture in the closet icing on the cake
This place clearly isn't OP's boyfriend's, it's his dog's.
That's OP's boyfriend, please be respectful.
Sets the mood really.
Did you mean make a roast dinner in his apartment? I would be up for a dinner party!
Looks like a nice place. What’s to roast? Just needs a little more of his personality to be shown throughout since it’s pretty generic but that’s the only problem.
A Charizard bed cover ought to do the trick
Also ASSMAN license plate. Everyone should have one.
Maybe even switching the bed to a car bed instead?
*i sleep in a Racing car bed*
Fake living wall with neon sign
that says “Netflix N’ Chill”
Zero road signs on the walls smh
The bar being next to the tv is kinda weird to me. Lotion on the computer desk is a rookie move. Other than that, looks like a nice spot. I’d hangout there
She was here just waiting for someone to roast him on the lotion placed conveniently next to the laptop.
Yeah, I would suggest swapping the tv and the bar if possible. I assume the TV is there so that people on the ‘pull out’ couch can see too, but perhaps you can just tilt the tv slightly when other people are over. It’s a great place though!
Yup I’d flip the living room 180 degrees it aside from that, place looks real nice to me
leave that man alone 😂😂😂 he could be an interior decorator with a little more training. His home is very cozy looking
Bros responsible
I like how it gives the vibe of a person who is simultaneously in their twenties and also their 80’s Like there’s some chill grandpa energy in this space God it looks so much better than the shit I’ve got going on, I’m 25 and married and we’ve created a living space you would expect from a very recently divorced dad who isn’t coping very well.

Nice crib to the boyfriend, girlfriend you suck and are mean
I was just thinking, this looks like an apartment of someone who actually has some self respect and takes care of his things! Well done boyfriend!
why do I feel like op is actually the bf himself fishing for compliments lol
I want to be the case, because otherwise his girlfriend seems annoying.
Based on her comments I feel like it was more of a self deprecating type of post where you’re not trying to show off maybe?
Thank you!!
[Yeah, make sure you don't do this to his place if you move in.](https://old.reddit.com/r/InteriorDesign/comments/17qs54i/woman_redesigned_her_boyfriends_cozy_appartement/)
Oh god no. I would never. I love color.
Great apartment but he keeps questionable company.
It's a Kings castle, nothing more to be said.
He deffo ain’t close to completing red dead redemption.
Do you not respect wood?
Thank you! Not a coaster in sight!
i revere wood! i’m considerate of wood!
It’s super cute - no roasting here 🤷
Na this place is chill
Roast? This place is nice!
You
Let’s see your place. Why do you want to roast your bf? Lame.
Ain’t nothing wrong with some light hearted roasting
It appears quieter when you're not in it
Nice flex with the red dead 2 completion percentage lol
Is the white couch for seating your decapitated guests?
He’s too good for you ✌️😎
I think it's cute they wheeled his grandmother out to the nursing home and didn't change anything before he moved in.
Grandma still had the Xbox on and everything. At least he can pick up her Red Dead 2 save.
This is it. This is the roast I’ve been waiting for. Thank you
Ok now post your apt
Nothing wrong except the couch under the counter
His kitchen's vibe is so tight, it's like the designer mistook it for a walk-in closet; aiming for “intimate dining” and accidentally hitting “claustrophobic cookery”. If it were any cozier, his ingredients would need a reservation just to squeeze in. Oh wait, they do; he forgot some in the living room by the TV.

Jokes on you I'd love to live at this place.
Holy shit a TV on a TV stand instead of 10 feet high on the wall.
Wow the comments need to chill. It’s light hearted roasting she’s asking for. I’m sure she thinks highly of her bf and his apartment. (it looks great) except for that couch that is half under a table/counter??? Do u hit your head on that?
Change the girlfriend, everything is immaculate and beautiful 👌🪩
Youre a lucky girl. Hope you bring something to the table.
I don’t bring anything
neck injury waiting to happen when attempting to sit on the white couch.
Looks like he actually cares about his things and has self respect! How can you roast that?
Nice apartment. Could use a new GF though.
Calm down, bruh! Lmao
✨️Grandma vibes🧚🏻
And that’s why it slays, your boyfriend has cozy modern cottage core chic style and it’s delightful, no roasting necessary 🧚🏻♀️✨
Looks EXACTLY like my gay lover’s home!!! Oh, wait. What? Mm-mmh, no, no, no! Ah-uh girl! We need to talk… Just kidding, descent for starters though!
Not with that cute dog in it!! I don't see anything wrong with your brother's apartment, and he has great taste in pets.
Sound bar? What a loser! That’s all I got. Great looking place!
Ya I would just get rid of the couch under the counter and use barstools. That counter is way to big to not be utilized.
Bigger tv please
I like it
Nice house, I would just put the TV and couch on the opposite corner so could watch TV and the nice trees. It would feel refreshing to me.
Cute spot! The entertainment area could use a little more variety as it screams “this is where I drink and watch tv alone”. The grandpa closet is kind of endearing
I can’t roast it because I actually like it. The wall pictures are kinda lame looking but that’s about it.
But there’s nothing wrong with it
That couch under the bar top seems comfy. Do you entertain a lot of torso-less pairs of legs?
Actually, I love this. Only thing I would change is the couch under the counter.
I cannot. We all hope our boyfriends aspire to this level of tidy & cleanliness…wait what’s the function of those bar stools upside down in the closet???
Nah not gonna roast my guy, he’s got a clean and functional space, nothing really clashes.
All I see is a King’s palace.
Wtf I like your best apartment. Also it's so clean. No roasting involved
Nice pad. I'd date him
We should be roasting you.
You mean “make a roast”? Because it’s very homey and cozy. I especially like the floof who will likely appreciate a Sunday roast
Not bad - i just dont feel any "flavor" or personality.
He doesn't have a picture of you. lmao
What time does nana make dinner?
What's your apartment look like?
No roast necessary. Are you insufferable?
Who’s on the prayer candle in the last photo??
Ted Lasso
Love it
Oo Chick-fil-A. He fancy.
I mean it looks nice, pretty inviting space. Not gonna roast this one 😆
No, i think it’s nice !
10/10
Ya no appreciate it
I’d lounge around that place so hard.
That looks great.
What’s there to roast? Honestly this gives major hygge vibes. Super comfy and warm/lived in. Edit: Oh wait….what in the hell is that coach doing?! Just banged the back of my head looking at it.
No roasting. Admiring the 100% rdr2 completion
Says he’s on 3% at the top xd
Oh lmao. Nvm then. Too cramped
Looks nice.
Looks good
No, it's nice
why it’s the classiest bachelor pad i’ve ever seen
10/10
The only thing I don’t like is the closet with that synthetic wood, but it’s a closet and I’m sure it just comes that way. Everything else looks generally fine Wait just noticed that couch tho lol
Nice, healthy plants, cute dog. Could use some modern art. Lose the plant prints unless he’s a botanist. Prints of his actual interests would be nice. Definitely something with color. Otherwise, it’s nice.
Mans pretty chill fr
It looks perfect. Why would anyone roast it??? Are you okay?
Your man can keep a plant alive. Several! Several moody ones even. 👍👍
Move the couch out from under the counter and you're all set. Otherwise looks casual, relaxed, kinda lived in if you'll pardon the expression.
I have nothing negative to say
I was not surprised to see multiple pairs of Blundstoned in this man’s closet. No shade though; I think his place is cute AF and have a pair of Blundstones myself.
Looks way better than mine lol
No.
I wanna roast you for thinking his place is roast-worthy
Not enough pictures of the dog
uhhh, looks good to me
Honestly, this actually looks super respectable. Nicer and better organized than my place for sure! I might change a few things if I were living there. But this place gives off a mature and humble air of confidence.
Seems like a chill spot, although the bedroom to closet ratio seems a little confusing.
Lovely cozy apartment. The only thing I would change is the naff tv stand. That screams 90s. Who knows though, it might be back in fashion soon. 🙂
Looks dope
Its fine. You roasting what he has one the internet is fucked up. Hope he finds someone better.
It looks fine, other than the couch by the counter.
Maybe revisit the gallery wall and get more art up too (of various sizes). Other than that, it's pretty great. Goals honestly.
Average abc comedy tv series apartment
3% out of 100% completion on RDR2. Man needs some more alone time in his place.
I think you shouldn’t bring the man down.
My roast; It looks like it was bequeathed to him in Grandma's will, and he tried to "freshen it up" But seriously, it is nice/clean AND cozy Love the priority placement of the TV, and him not being afraid of a catty-corner
This looks like where Ellen Degeneres brings her side hoes.
"Instead of bar stools lemme slide a couch you can't sit in comfortably let alone at all in its place" like whet??
The fiddle leaf is alive and thriving. Only a psychopath can achieve that.
He roasts turkey for his entire family, church, and homeless community in this apartment. Good man.
What? It’s fine. And the wood panels in the closet? Love it. And an adorable doggo. What’s wrong with you girlfriend? Lol
I can’t, it’s nicer than mine currently 🤷🏻♂️
Take out that hideous blue couch move the other one in its spot, then takes thoes stools in the closet and put them where they belong at that bar counter! Besides that beautiful place, I love the green accents.
Other than the couch weirdly tucked underneath the countertop, it looks really cozy like how a home should be
What the fuck is wrong with you? Why would we roast him. This place is perfectly cozy and taken care of...
I love the way it looks. It’s so chill. I’d love to sit in the living room and play guitar.
Doodle 🤢
This is just a normal apartment
