Giving your home a makeover is quite the challenge. You must make many decisions, even if it’s just a trip to IKEA. Luckily, the subreddit ‘Design My Room’ is ready to help.
The “Design My Room” idea is simple: a person submits a picture (or pictures) of their room to the online community, including a layout with measurements, and they share ideas on redesigning it. To get a more personalized plan, you can add other details, such as your location, budget, and the kind of style you want (e.g., minimalist, etc.).
Often, people follow at least some of the advice and are so pleased with the results that they even make a new post on the subreddit “Design My Room” to show how their place looked before and after the redecoration.
So to commemorate these folks for their service, we assembled a collection of some of their best projects. (H/T)
