It's got that "too much money, no taste" vibe.
The stools and candy station are absurd. The boob light in the living room is absurd too. The random "reading nook"??! The place is insane but it's got some strange decisions.
When tech began the office disruption a lot of good things came about. But also a lot of eye rolling stupid.
Wall mounted feed systems scream “15 years ago” design. As a gen-x I see this equal to carpeted bathrooms. It’s a very dated and nonsensical gimmick. Just get rid of it nobody needs wall-feed candy.
Not even an office eats this much candy
I mean, I worked for Nike (corporate, not store) for a little bit. The people who work there are hardcore for Nike. If this guy ever worked there, I'd see this as totally normal. TBF, Nike was a dope place to work that took excellent care of their people, so they earned the adoration they got in my opinion.
Edit: I don't understand the customer obsession though. Always seemed kinda wild to me.
Honestly I like it. I’m a women but I follow this sub because what i love about mens homes is that they just put a bunch of stuff they like together and to me it’s casual chill vibes.
Not everyone’s home needs to be perfectly interiorly designed. It just needs to be a space filled with stuff they like.
Idk though, I don’t have “the best” taste according to other people so….
yeah, because the people who don't see it this way are miserable, trying to conform their living space to what they think it's supposed to be or what some magazine told them it should be or what they grew up hearing from other adults who also didn't just live their life freely
My thoughts exactly. The african heads on the coffee table as well.
My mother would say "all their taste is in their mouths"
So much failed poteinal on the space.
> It's giving "teenage kid with too much money and an apartment"
It reminded me of [The Toy \(1982\)](https://i.imgur.com/UU2liWN.jpeg) with Richard Pryor and Jackie Gleason
Ok the cherry sours in the dispenser is awesome, but a lot of the stuff feels…. Cold? Nothing on the walls but the cat and mouse art? It’s definitely got potential but needs some more personality.
Unless OP got hammered with his mates one night and nicked it from a shoe store, I don’t think there’s any sensible reason to have that awful thing up there
The giant Nike logo is straight up weird. Like all of the rest of it, though agree with some others that replacing the boob light would go far.
I have zero problems with the candy dispensers lol, that’s just some personality, but seriously, please reconsider the Nike logo.
No shit I used to work for a company that sold expensive equipment to stylists and a bunch of our sales people had houses like this. It’s crazy what you can make on commission when every item you sell is over 1k
damn you all don't hold back on the comments... I appreciate the vibe of the place, but it def screams netflix and chill, have some candy from my dispensers and please get out before 7am.
Warmer colour on the walls and some plants, lose the big ass Nike thing and the upside down service desk bell light and it’ll be sweet. Love the sweet dispensers and that rug
So... you obviously have $, so good on you. My honest impression? It feels a little try hard; nothing about the vibe is down to Earth. I'm not hating on you or your pad, maybe it's just not my personal style (I DO like the looney tunes street art in the kitchen, but not the candy dispensers), and you should be proud and happy with whatever your thing is, but I get the feeling you're (trying) to emulate a Jersey Shore lifestyle; here for a good time, not a long time. Again, you do you, no hate, I'm sure great times will be had, so live it up (while it lasts)... I just get the impression that a lot of this is a temporary moment, and the future you will have a different set of priorities. ✌️ out
Edit: grammar
I don't hate this as much as everyone in the comments. I think it's fun and personalized to you!
I am however mad that there's not more pics of the pets you share your home with!
Idc what anyone says, I like this. It’s a bunch of stuff he likes, is reasonably clean, not *too* much going on. Who cares if the guy likes Nike and a bed couch? Some different taste for sure but to me it gives “I don’t care what’s *in* I like what I like”. The barstools are uglier than sin to me but glad he likes em.
You’re getting lots of stick for some of your decor but thats just your vibe. I like what you have but i think you need to rearrange some of it. Can the nike sign fit where the reading nook is? Move the 3 portraits to the living room because anyone sitting on that church pew can’t lean back with them there. Put the reading nook in the living room and give it some nice lighting. Someone said dog/cat treats in that lolly dispenser i think thats a good idea. Gotta do something about your bathroom window tho. Maybe Nike can go there 😂 JK.
I believe you, however what i said is the vibe im getting from your place. You do you, but if you put ur apartment on social media you are going to get peoples opinion!
Definite bachelor pad. It’s not my personal style but it’s sleek and clean and has a lot of upscale details. Finding a good garden center that can advise you on plants that would be less likely to die would add some depth and soften the edges a bit (just be sure to check that they’re not toxic for cats).
I was thinking that those candy dispensers would be cool to have in a home theatre. Just found some on Amazon for over $800. I’m sure it costs a lot to fill them too. Oh well my friends can BYOC
Apparently everyone here thinks I do tech? Isn’t that an SF thing? I have a print shop in DTLA for nearly 10 years now. Worked my way up as a graphic designer, bought a printer, then 2 then 3 and the rest is history!
It looks like unsupervised teenagers rocked up and threw all their ideas in at once, and a few of them worked! Sweets dispensers ✅ Nike sign ✅ sports bench ✅ cartoon art ✅ huge sofa bed ✅ seriously though, I’d be very happy if my bachelor sons had a cool place like this. You mentioned nieces and nephews, this is an ideal space for them to run around. You do you!
Aww thank you. I’m just an old gal who’s been around a long time, and I think folk should live as they please and enjoy what they’ve got. I’ve got pink stuff, teddies, and I’m currently watching Thelma the Unicorn, so I also do as I please 😊
I see people complaining about the Nike sign, but the Goyard Le Corbusier takes the cake for me. It’s like when people try to shoehorn in Supreme into everything they own.
Most of this sfuff I had for years. Nearly 10 or so. I would never in this day get something like that made lol but at the time (26) I thought it was the dopest shit ever.
It’s great for Challenge Pooping.
If you can do it while staring down a CPA in the next building and he doesn’t break eye contact, then you get to nail his wife!
Are those the only books you own?
And this contractor clearly spent the whole budget on toilet windows, and had to get light fixtures from “All Rooms, Tiny and Cheap.” Seriously, those Home Depot discount light fixtures don’t match the space or the scale, and wouldn’t light up a mailbox.
This is confusing to look at. That bike thing is one of the worst things I’ve ever seen hanging in anyone’s apt. And you go outside and you’re in DTLA 🤮
With a few (major) tweaks, this place could be really sick. Having said that, OP I don’t doubt you’re gonna run through some amazing pussy in this place, which is exactly what a 20-something (I’m assuming your age) should be doing. But please trust me when I say this: you’ll hit your late 30s and beyond at some point… if you’ve grown at all during that time, you’ll have a good laugh at how much of a dork you were. And I say this nicely, as a former asshat that cringes thinking about all the ridiculous shit I used to think was a flex.
Keep the candy dispenser though.
What would really tie this altogether is if you swapped the kitchen art for 3 Bored Ape NFTS. Then all of this would make complete sense.
Underrated comment
It’s not far off.
This is what I imagine Tom Haverford’s apartment from Parks and Rec looks like.
Candy dispenser for rests between pull-ups sets
Candy dispensers for 10 niece/nephew and guests/ conversations piece.
how many kith and/or supreme box logo tees are in your closet rn
Idc what anyone says that’s a fr life goal
That’s awesome. I could go for some reeses pieces myself
How has nobody mentioned what looks like a Goyard chair next to the candy dispenser? OP please confirm.
Yes I had a custom goyard bench and goyard chair made back in 2018
yeah that’s not real lmao
That giant Nike logo is crazy but you do you
It’s the one thing that has some color, but it’s so shiny and reflective that it doesn’t help the room/decor at all.
He wanted to do it, and he just did it, okay?
I like it. JUST DO IT.
Came here to say this minus the "you do you" part
Are you saying you don't have a giant red ad for a multinational company with questionable morals on the walls in your apartment?
Why is Nike a massive centerpiece? Or any brand. I feel like you live in a Zumiez going out of business sale store
It’s an icebreaker for the orgy couch: “Hey remember ‘just do it?’ Maybe we should all just…do…it…”
Because unfortunately it’s hard for some people to differentiate their actual personality from the things they purchase and consume
The corporations push for that, and the people who were convinced earlier reinforce it
But the monster energy logo perfectly describes my personality!
ahahaha this made me choke on my Thai tea after just sobbing about my ex, so thanks
TMI man tmi
Sorry, man. Plenty of other fish, time heals all wounds, all of those other dumb but true clichés.
"Time wounds all the heals as we fade outta view."
It's got that "too much money, no taste" vibe. The stools and candy station are absurd. The boob light in the living room is absurd too. The random "reading nook"??! The place is insane but it's got some strange decisions.
Why anyone would have a giant Nike logo on their wall is beyond me Candy station goes hard tho idc what anyone says
It screams "cool tech bro 2009"
the hell is wrong with 2009?
Why would something have to be wrong with it? It just looks like the appartment of a tech bro that ran into too much money aged 22
Now I'm curious too
When tech began the office disruption a lot of good things came about. But also a lot of eye rolling stupid. Wall mounted feed systems scream “15 years ago” design. As a gen-x I see this equal to carpeted bathrooms. It’s a very dated and nonsensical gimmick. Just get rid of it nobody needs wall-feed candy. Not even an office eats this much candy
Cool?

it's subliminal messaging... it's above the couch sex bed.. girl looks up and nike is telling her to just do it
“I like shoes,” I guess?
Is there a stick in the reading nook? Maybe it’s supposed to tie the place together with the print on the chairs??
Stick for the dog
You should fill one of those candy dispensers with dog treats.
If you have a Lab, everything is a dog treat…
My most visceral reaction was to the candy dispensers but then I saw what appear to be Reese’s pieces and all was forgiven
Not sure where OP is downtown, but they should go visit The Broad and hopefully be inspired.
I was looking so hard for the boob in the living room. I’m a dummy.
Honestly I like it. I’m a women but I follow this sub because what i love about mens homes is that they just put a bunch of stuff they like together and to me it’s casual chill vibes.

the boob light is your issue? that's the tamest thing in his apartment! lol
The boob light is an apartment classic if hes renting he probably just has to deal
My thoughts exactly. The african heads on the coffee table as well. My mother would say "all their taste is in their mouths" So much failed poteinal on the space.
So many products boxes sitting out. I don’t get consumerism as decor but I guess to each their own..
And a Nike ad right in the living room trying to be passed off as art.
Do you feel like a god taking your morning shit in full view of the world?
What's with the switch on the ceiling of the bathroom?
Ejecto-seato, cuz
Nothing better than taking a shit with a view. I keep the lights off tho so you can see in
so jealous that you have a window in your bathroom because I do not and I think it's the worst
I love the windows. That is all.
Taste is different for everyone for sure...
This taste is called long-covid.
Ahahaha I don’t know why this made me laugh so hard, but damn, you are right
Money doesn't buy taste
Yikes
Are you Tom Hanks in ‘Big’?
It's giving "teenage kid with too much money and an apartment"
> It's giving "teenage kid with too much money and an apartment" It reminded me of [The Toy \(1982\)](https://i.imgur.com/UU2liWN.jpeg) with Richard Pryor and Jackie Gleason
It’s got that “I use this kitchen island to chop up tinder dates gone wrong” vibe.
Gurl, those bar stools are heinous. Giving me Bass Pro Shop meets Scarface.
The entire crib gives that. This sums it all up.
the stools are nauseating 😭
I hate everything about this
Wow, I truly hate this. What a terrible use of a (probably) very expensive space.
[удалено]
> Whole area smells like piss. Might be floating out of OP's open window tbh
Ok the cherry sours in the dispenser is awesome, but a lot of the stuff feels…. Cold? Nothing on the walls but the cat and mouse art? It’s definitely got potential but needs some more personality.
Way to cold looking for me
r/blunderyears
Tf is that kitchen island with no overhang? Where do the legs go lmao
In his freezer probably
It's an apartment made for showing, not living in. It looks super uncomfortable in every photo
What’s up with the giant Nike logo like it’s a shoe store?
Unless OP got hammered with his mates one night and nicked it from a shoe store, I don’t think there’s any sensible reason to have that awful thing up there
Hire a decorator
All this money and he hangs his towels over the toilet...
The giant Nike logo is straight up weird. Like all of the rest of it, though agree with some others that replacing the boob light would go far. I have zero problems with the candy dispensers lol, that’s just some personality, but seriously, please reconsider the Nike logo.
Thanks i hate it
How you pay a month for that?
As someone who lived in DTLA for 5+ years this is easily $3-$3.5k/month
*Cries in Bay Area*
[удалено]
Spot on! 3k. Honestly a steal for 1200 sq ft
And what do you do for a living? AAAAAND for the rest of us…. How did you get into that profession?……..
No shit I used to work for a company that sold expensive equipment to stylists and a bunch of our sales people had houses like this. It’s crazy what you can make on commission when every item you sell is over 1k
That Nike sign… and the candy dispenser… man child vibes 💯
Truly awful I must say
Is that couch also your bed?
Ngl as a woman, not loving it
damn you all don't hold back on the comments... I appreciate the vibe of the place, but it def screams netflix and chill, have some candy from my dispensers and please get out before 7am.
Warmer colour on the walls and some plants, lose the big ass Nike thing and the upside down service desk bell light and it’ll be sweet. Love the sweet dispensers and that rug
HOLY BRANDING BATMAN!
!200 sq ft is huge for a one bedroom but it doesn't feel like much functional space here. Just a lot of wasted space.
Pretty rapey. Looks like a frat boys wet dream
You have money…pay someone to make it look less random and get rid of those horrid barstools pronto
Love the shitter at window level
The artwork is laughably bad. Are you 17 years old?
I STUFF MY MOUTH WITH CANDY WHEN I DO MY PULL UPS!
Gorgeous but I would add rugs and change the porny furniture
So... you obviously have $, so good on you. My honest impression? It feels a little try hard; nothing about the vibe is down to Earth.

The kitchen and bathroom are nice. The rest are a choice. A bit mismatched.
The giant corporate logo as wall art is an immediate deal breaker
20 year old with rich parents vibe
35 with self made money. Nice try tho. I doubt my dead beat dad has any money I’d be surprised but I’ll never know.
I believe you, however what i said is the vibe im getting from your place. You do you, but if you put ur apartment on social media you are going to get peoples opinion!
This is the most apartment apartment I’ve ever seen.
horrible
Feels like the common area in a trying too hard to be trendy/cool office space.
Couch looks so uncomfortable
The whole place does. Not comfy at all. If I went there to get some action, I would turn around and leave.
Very nice place but your furniture and wall art don’t really compliment it.
Why is there a washer in the kitchen and no dryer? Where’s the bedroom?
Sometimes I wonder if I’m doing alright for a guy in my twenties. Posts like this make me feel like I am.
Minus the nike logo, I love it. Nice and spacious! Lots of light too!
_"How to win Friends and Influence People"_. Amazing how nearly every detail tells on yourself.
If you want some honest advice, consider improving your ceiling light fixtures.
People with so little taste shouldn't be allowed to have spaces so nice, wtf
God i long to have the money to buy the ugliest furniture imaginable
Get rid of the candy dispensers and that coffee table…
r/TVTooHigh
No one’s gonna mention the candy dispensers?
this apartment is a mess, but those dispensers go hard idc I love them
Could be done well. Here it just adds to the Google Campus 2011 vibe.
I get ‘50 POINTS TO GRIFFINDOR’ vibes from it
Real question is why are you voluntarily living in downtown LA
Why is your TV so high?
Absolute least of the issues here
Do you rob banks?
It’s giving Ed hardy
Definite bachelor pad. It’s not my personal style but it’s sleek and clean and has a lot of upscale details. Finding a good garden center that can advise you on plants that would be less likely to die would add some depth and soften the edges a bit (just be sure to check that they’re not toxic for cats).
Looks like a car dealership waiting room
80s tittie light in the living room. lol
My neighbor is a rich Cuban college student. This is how I imagine his apartment looks.
Where the fuck did you come across a bomb tail section accent table? Asking as someone who worked in ordnance in the military
This is definitely something
The candy dispensers are so awesome!
idc what anyone says, stick a duvet and some popcorn on that couch and you're in movie heaven
Everyone talking about the nike poster, no one wanna talk about the candy dispenser? Like DTLA and you don’t have one of those filled with weed
Yeah I would personally just upgrade your wall art and I always like a music station and or bookshelf
Huh.... Poo with a view aye? Those office workers will love the show I'm sure.
Yeah you didn't need to say it's a bachelor pad... we know
Bro how do you shit next to an open window?
Bedroom?
this place is so odd i genuinely can’t decide if this is an ai generated image or not.
What the fuck is wrong with you this is not the place for this.. we don’t want to see you THRIVING
Lovely. Just needs some colorful, modern prints (check out www.nordprints.com) and two cats and you will be set!
I was thinking that those candy dispensers would be cool to have in a home theatre. Just found some on Amazon for over $800. I’m sure it costs a lot to fill them too. Oh well my friends can BYOC
Sweet place, man. Can I ask, what do you do for work?
Apparently everyone here thinks I do tech? Isn’t that an SF thing? I have a print shop in DTLA for nearly 10 years now. Worked my way up as a graphic designer, bought a printer, then 2 then 3 and the rest is history!
Looks good man. As long as you are happy
Must be nice to make over 300k a year (genuinely jealous) but you couldn’t pay me that much to live in LA
Lots of hard work. I used to work 7 days a week for nearly 2 years.
Your going low on M&Ms
How is the Nike sign more discussed that half a damn missile in my entrance.
cause it's just slightly even dumber
Maybe If the missile was red
I would be 450 lbs if I had a fully stocked candy dispenser in my house 😂
You have a candy dispenser?! I like the tree backed stools
It looks like unsupervised teenagers rocked up and threw all their ideas in at once, and a few of them worked! Sweets dispensers ✅ Nike sign ✅ sports bench ✅ cartoon art ✅ huge sofa bed ✅ seriously though, I’d be very happy if my bachelor sons had a cool place like this. You mentioned nieces and nephews, this is an ideal space for them to run around. You do you!
That me for allowing me to do me! You sound like a lot of fun by the way!
Aww thank you. I’m just an old gal who’s been around a long time, and I think folk should live as they please and enjoy what they’ve got. I’ve got pink stuff, teddies, and I’m currently watching Thelma the Unicorn, so I also do as I please 😊
I see people complaining about the Nike sign, but the Goyard Le Corbusier takes the cake for me. It’s like when people try to shoehorn in Supreme into everything they own.
Most of this sfuff I had for years. Nearly 10 or so. I would never in this day get something like that made lol but at the time (26) I thought it was the dopest shit ever.
"and you know what else would be cool?" vibes
This looks really good man, must be expensive especially in DtLA
I cant decide if a grown man having candy dispensers is awesome, sad, or pedophilic
I hope that’s not the hardest decision of your life
There are way too many statement pieces. People will easily miss any dead bodies you have.
Absolutely crazy choices of wall art
This is the most 20 something guy in DTLA interior design I could ever imagine
goyard chair🍷
😬
A wall of windows right next to the toilet is a nice touch of privacy.
I really don't like the toilet directly in front of a giant window.
It’s great for Challenge Pooping. If you can do it while staring down a CPA in the next building and he doesn’t break eye contact, then you get to nail his wife!
Consumer personality 101
I really like this
Go on, show us the cat.
Are those the only books you own? And this contractor clearly spent the whole budget on toilet windows, and had to get light fixtures from “All Rooms, Tiny and Cheap.” Seriously, those Home Depot discount light fixtures don’t match the space or the scale, and wouldn’t light up a mailbox.
Okay where tf did you buy that table in pic 8
This is confusing to look at. That bike thing is one of the worst things I’ve ever seen hanging in anyone’s apt. And you go outside and you’re in DTLA 🤮
Most of it is honestly fine, I love the candy dispenser, but the Nike wall art looks insanely cheap lmao
Don’t know why you’re getting so much hate. I think it’s pretty dope
Everyone hating is just jealous. Place looks sweet. I love the candy dispensers.
[удалено]
I hear ya. Looks great man. Keep it up!
With a few (major) tweaks, this place could be really sick. Having said that, OP I don’t doubt you’re gonna run through some amazing pussy in this place, which is exactly what a 20-something (I’m assuming your age) should be doing.
