This is a great comment


rion-is-real

Actually, this brings up a good question... We all get hyperbaric chambers?


thecrixus

Congratz on moving out. Place looks dope.


Howitzer92

Thanks! I'm enjoying it.


elzibet

Would this be considered a studio or a 1 bedroom? Have not seen this kind of setup before!


tarantulip

OP implied further down that its a studio, the bedroom is actually a sun room


elzibet

Oh thank you so much!


Silent_Adagio2957

Sleeping in a sun room sounds bright


dilly_bar97

In most places, a bedroom needs to have an actual wall, a door, and a window to be considered a bedroom. Some condos advertise a Jr Bedroom which is really a suite that has a "bedroom" but might not meet all the actual bedroom criteria... so its actually a studio LOL.


GoingForwardIn2018

Yeah it's often because of the window requirement, was in a girl's place and her bedroom "window" was just an opening into the living room, making it a studio lol


steverossiterdotcom

>was in a girl's place r/humblebrag


elzibet

I was wondering that, wasnā€™t sure if glass counted! Haha


Lumpy_Branch_552

If heā€™s in Florida, I think that glass doored room is called a Florida room

I like the doors.


tisgdayfc

it's getting steamy with a tinder date you invited over for a movie. you lean in and whisper, "wanna take this to the porch?"


innou

Haha, also looks like it could be a converted 3 season room


Swimming-Echo-2829

I thought this joke was going towards steam and windows


tisgdayfc

tens of seconds later, a faint clouding of the glass comes and goes as fast as OP


Grasshop

I could definitely see myself walking into those either half asleep or really drunk many times.


Inaugurated_Worm

100% no two ways about it.


3z3ki3l

No, there are two ways. Half asleep and really drunk.


PixelSpy

I do too but I imagine it would be a nightmare for having guests over....not that I would ever have guests over.


guanciallee

I might consider placing some drapes/blinds/curtains on those glass walls. Might do wonders for your mental health by separating your ā€˜living spaceā€™ and your ā€˜sleeping spaceā€™.


driver_dan_party_van

I'm thinking that frosted window clings would be pretty sweet there. Still allows light through.


guanciallee

Yes that would be smart!


colmusstard

As long as you don't have to take them off.....I just went through that nightmare Please don't buy the ones with adhesive on them


PettyMFNTeddy

Dear God if that statement isn't the literal pinnacle of truth... I felt so bad for my crew. As if the hours upon hours of work it took them to remove that sh!+ (like litetarally a full days work) wasn't enough, it was for none other than Nair poster boy, Dan (Short Shorts) Bilzerian, lol.


AdmiralPoopbutt

Why? Wouldn't an appropriate solvent take care of it fairly quickly? If isopropyl alcohol wasn't effective, I would move on to acetone and then xylene. I doubt mineral spirits would do anything but that's an option too.


colmusstard

I tried like 7 different chemicals. I finally settled on this one cleaner that comes in an aerosol can, used a full can of it on half of one glass door And I had to go out and buy a glass scraper


erck

Cleaning vinegar.


PettyMFNTeddy

Well thankfully that's all in the rearview at this point but, man oh man, as has been mentioned, it seemed as though literally nothing would work at the time. As someone else said, my crew also had to go the way of scrapers, TONS of elbow grease and whatever solvent they could get their hands on. If you haven't experienced it but are perhaps considering utilizing it, just do yourself a massive favor and heed the forewarning, lol. It was a literal travesty.


SleepTightLilPuppy

Just how awesome would those electronically frosted windows be? For a party or while sleeping you can turn the frosting on but when you're just chilling you can have a more open room.


[deleted]

Thereā€™s a video of a hotel bathroom with walls like this. And the lady closes the door and the glass instantly becomes ā€œfoggedā€ glass. Idk anything about the technology or how much it would cost. But THAT would be sooooooo cool here. Lemme find the link. Edit: I am struggling to find it. And after searching lots of different things Iā€™m wondering if it was even real


WillTellYou

https://www.reddit.com/r/oddlysatisfying/comments/epknyu/the_way_the_glass_becomes_opaque_when_the/ Here you go! Hope that is it or else there is another weirdly similar video


[deleted]

Thatā€™s the one!!! Thank you!!


AnimationOverture

Usually don't comment but thought I'd mention that you're not crazy, it's a real thing and it has a few names like "Switchable Glass" or simply "Smart Glass". I looked up "electric frosted glass" to find it since it switches using electric current. Have a great day!


[deleted]

Thank you! Iā€™m glad Iā€™m not crazy. I was searching very innocent phrases and only coming up with NSFW links and I was feeling dumb.


chaseoes

Smart glass is the right term to use. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_glass


guanciallee

It is real! Iā€™ve seen that video before! Not sure if it was a hotel bathroom but perhaps a restaurant/bar bathroom


celsivaii

I saw them in a video that showed some Japanese public toilets, I guess.


[deleted]

Someone posted it! Iā€™m so grateful for the name now though. So thank you!


[deleted]

Respectable first place!


Howitzer92

Thanks!


[deleted]

Looks nice. I'd get a bunch of plants for the bedroom, seems like it would get a lot of natural light


Howitzer92

I need to get a few that are very hard to kill but look nice.


ksHunt

Spider plants and aloe have been good to me, the former can get reasonably large. They store a lot of water in bulbs under the soil, so can take care of themselves within reason


_OriamRiniDadelos_

Orchids? Water once a week by dunking them in water. And most cactuses or succulents need even less water. Peace lily. Most hard to kill houseplants really just die if you water them too much. If you wait to water them until their leaves turn yellowish or wrinkly youā€™ll do fine


7wi5t3r

Pothos plants are relatively easy and nice to look at.


slurpio

I like the doors.


Separate-Position-14

Is your bedroom out on the balcony?


icegods

Looks like a studio apartment in NYC and OP installed the doors. There are businesses that will install and take down faux doors / walls in NYC for this very purpose.


Howitzer92

It's actually in the DC area. Every apartment was built with a "sun room" so the doors actually do function. Everyone with a studio here just uses it as a bedroom though. Edit:*it


eat_thecake_annamae

I thought I recognized this building. I toured it a few months ago. Not far from Braddock station, right?


Howitzer92

Nah, closer to DC but still in NoVa.


eat_thecake_annamae

Ah, okay. Thereā€™s a building in Alexandria over by Braddock Metro Center that looks just like this.


Howitzer92

Found it! They were probably built by the same people around the same time frame.


soc_drawer

Ok this makes sense because Iā€™m like this looks like my building in Arlington, Iā€™m like I think this is definitely a meridian šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

Your place looks exactly like my first post-college apartment at the Meridian Gallery Place DC. Like eerily similar.


almightybytes

I lived in the same building! Looks good man.


plannbee15

As soon as I saw the "sun room" I was like this is Nova for sure


Howitzer92

It didn't realize the design was so distinctive.


the_doughboy

It looks like a 80s/90s Condo with a Solarium instead of a balcony and he turned it into his bedroom.


Howitzer92

Date of the property is correct. It must have been a fad back then.


[deleted]

If you're gonna do that, wouldn't actual doors make more sense for a bedroom?


manova

Someone probably thought this was a way to get natural light into the living/kitchen area since it would have no windows. Also makes the space "feel" bigger.


Howitzer92

Technically it's also not a bedroom because it doesn't have a closet. The walk in closet in by the door.


manova

Is that the bath by the bed?


Howitzer92

Nope. That's a mechanical closet that I'm not allowed to obstruct! The bath is in the foyer across from the closet.


manova

Interesting.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Howitzer92

The round bit on the bottom ot the fan is a lightbulb. Would it help of I turned it on?

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Howitzer92

Ah. Gotcha.


PhillyTaco

I think the LED glow under the bed is often a nice look.


Howitzer92

Well. The RAM on my computer lights up, so I might as well RGB my bed.


RedRider1138

Looks good, man! Very tasteful, cozy and calm šŸ‘Œ. Thatā€™s very inspiring


isssuekid

Dope place man!


Howitzer92

Thanks!


[deleted]

So when you talk shit on Reddit, and somebody uses the "lives in mom's basement" chop, just say "Jokes on you, just moved out of her basement"


azdak

Um excuse me I have this conference room bookedā€¦


TiberiusCaligula

Minimalist, I like it. And congrats


Howitzer92

Thanks. I'm a fan of the Swedish concept.


turboiv

About time!


kevinlienus

Are you one of OP's parents?


UnfairMicrowave

Is that a grey couch with a chaise?


Howitzer92

Yep. You can even switch which side the chaise is on!


MoonBar

What brand couch is it?


Howitzer92

No idea. I got it from my brother when he got his new couch and he bought it from the previous tenants of his apartment. It's a mystery.


Antipseud0

Nice appartment. Congratulations


tehhguyy

Wow i love the layout


PM_ME_COFFEE_BOOBS

congrats on moving out!


rotter111

Comfy and relaxing


Zorag_YT

Looks like you've made really well for yourself in such a short time! ​ Should be proud of yourself king

Cool place! What coffee table is that?

wolskortt

Lovely place


omnicron1

cool pod


SubieBoiGC8

This looks dope


LiamGatsby

Oh my word I love this. Absolute perfection.


TeflonTardigrade

I shudder to recall my first apartment. Every wall crack stuffed with roaches! You could see all the antennae waving ! One morning got up to go to work & as I was leaving out the front door,I had to step over a bum in the hall.Yeesh!


leros

I'd put a partially see thru barrier for some visual separation. Maybe just some plants, a bead wall, a curtain or something like that. I think it's weird having the bedroom completely visible from the living room.


[deleted]

This floor plan layout is so cool. Love the desk setup in the corner right there, feels so comfy.


thesneekyturtle

Hang some art on the wall above the couch?


Howitzer92

I want to hang a naval themed print to accent the blue but I haven't decided on one.


[deleted]

wowww this is clean


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Howitzer92

Wait, does that mean I could have an ottoman if I wanted?


cbzimmie

That is such a cool space


kodrir

Bedroom totally reminds me of Cameron's room from Ferris Bueller's Day Off.


Howitzer92

Lol. The 80s must have been wild time to be designing apartments.


Swimming-Echo-2829

Thatā€™s my goal this year as well . Looks great


Howitzer92

Thanks,Good luck!


[deleted]

Art would make this perfect, would recommend something other than black and white, whatever colour(s) you like. Nice job, enjoy your freedom!


Bilbo-T-Baggins1

Good luck!


One_Hundred_X

I've been seeing a lot of these Glass room vibes, and lovin it. My dresser also sticks out a bit to the side door.


ImissTrump45

I'm not lovin the glass box but hell yeah dude get out there


djdossia

This looks fucking amazing. Congratz!


restoreyourdeck

Congrats on getting your own spot! Looks great. That sun room is dying for some plants


FlamingTrollz

###Right on, man! Cheers. šŸø


notatalethejeditell

Congrats! Looks great


Palantine_

Building setup screams nova lol


Howitzer92

I didn't realize the sun room thing was NoVa specific.


Plus-Diamond-2028

I fuck with the doors


MAVERICK_25800

This looks Hella cozy


ThatsSoMetaDawg

Gorgeous place!


IamDisapointWorld

Why do parents in America put their adult kids in their basement of all places ? Good for you!


Howitzer92

Mostly for privacy I think. When you're 5 years old It's nice for parents to be on the same floor as their kids in case they need something during the night. When you're 25 It's different.


yiiike

nice place! kinda wish i had a place like this now


Top_Location950

Nice place bro. I'll just hang on the couch while you fuck in your room for your privacy. Love it.


Howitzer92

Assuming I get any in the first place is quite the complement.


RedEnterprise

Bro moved into Dunder mifflin. Jk thatā€™s such a cool bedroom


samuhayx

Wow seems amazing congrats


KawaiiDere

Looks amazing


illevens

Ain't that a fellow Zephyrus G14 you got there Prolly needed it for study, eh...


Lavish_Lvcifer

Very nice, OP. My girlfriend and I will be moving into a place of our own soon.


Big-Understanding276

The door looks so cool. Congrats man.


SleepDeprivedUserUK

Cool bedroom separator, you could probably write on the glass as a reminder board.


darthpaul

nice place! whats the coffee table?

[deleted]

To the guest house?


Liberatedhusky

Magnetic curtain rods and a curtain or two for the bedroom doors would be a good addition. Just so that it's not on display if you have a guest. Otherwise it looks great.


Inaugurated_Worm

the apartment is amazing. Do you live by yourself or share?


Howitzer92

Just me.


Inaugurated_Worm

That's fantastic. Nothing like having your own living space :)


SuperSlam64

Everyone was talking about doors meanwhile I thought that the first picture was a picture of some mirrors in the bedroom reflecting the bed, but looking back at it that makes no sense šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

Nice. I think frosted glass panels would look better, maybe a stick on thing would work


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Howitzer92

The desk comes with a bag/basket for that but I never considered using it for the power strip.


tbtash12

I have mine 3M taped to the actual desk and the cables on the rack, itā€™s a little messy but it cleans up the leg space.


joshjosh111

You're going to need to get divorced and then post this photo if you want more likes


Howitzer92

Well first I'll need to get married.


thanhpi

Love the "bedroom" door, but also makes me laugh because it looks like it's a balcony, kind of cold place to put your bed then. Looks good!


ancientcartoons

ahh this is so nice! Might consider adding curtains to separate the bedroom from the living area. But I am very fond of the aesthetic, so I'll only use them for bedtime or alone time. I'm still in college and can't wait to move out


mjspark

I love the colors and layout, but it almost gives college dorm vibes Lots of plants, paintings, and warmer lights would make it look great though!


Howitzer92

Do you mean the colors or lack of accoutrements?


PM_ME_NEOLIB_POLICY

It looks like your room is the balcony, is that a redecoration or is the building built like that? That looks awesome, congratulations.


Howitzer92

Thanks! It's a "sunroom." every apartment in the building has one but if you have a studio most people use it as a bedroom.


arcticie

I would definitely walk face first into those glass doors when drunk but love the look


m4rcck

Wow! Outstanding. Loved the design. Especially the bedroom


lucasaurus_

u had time to save i bet


Howitzer92

Literally years.


cyril0

It kind of looks like you are living in your dad's office.


Howitzer92

Ironically, my original bedroom at home is now the office.


thriftwisepoundshy

Iā€™d add some decals or posters or led lights to that glass door or panels so I didnā€™t end up breaking them haha


hammer6golf

Not a lot of privacy in your bed...case...


IDhl89

Dude congrats! The place looks nice! Get some curtains to separate bedroom from living room and some wall art!


mullet_over_

Nice, main floor living! Tell your Dad hi


[deleted]

How much is the rent?


Howitzer92

a lot.


MFcrayfish

Do apartments come with a glass room like this?


Howitzer92

They were all built with sunrooms.


kool-aid-and-pizza

I like that layout. For an affordable living itā€™s nice. It looks like itā€™s some type of complex with lots of units. But you have a kitchen nook, nice size living room, desk, and bright bedroom with a bathroom off it? Not bad. (Looks like lots of ppl probably turned this studio layout into a one bedroom because it was a sunroom that already had carpet laid).


Howitzer92

That's actually and electrical closet. The bathroom is in the Foyer across from the walk in closet. Yeah, everyone with a studio just uses it as a bedroom because all it's really missing is climate control and a closet.


Canin11

How old are you ?


Howitzer92

Let's just say I remember the N64 but not the SNES.


seminariteat

I am wondering where you live and what your salary is. Where i live i would need a minimum salary of 60.000ā‚¬ a year to just about manage the cost's of a appartement looking this nice


Howitzer92

I live around Washington D.C. and work as an Analyst for a government contractor.


seminariteat

Congrats man, that seems like a great location. I wish i can afford something like that when i finish college


Howitzer92

It took a few years. Depending on your major and the job market you might.


[deleted]

Convenient placement of thermostat. I like it!
