Occasional Commenter :

Nothing could have prepared me for the cut to the TV

Mandy Potts :

Reggie :

your problem with the couch may be that there's no rug

Amber Nicole :

Don’t replace the couch. If it’s comfy, keep it. Maybe replace the covers if you want a different color.

Lowe’s :

We love this series! Can’t wait until you make it 🙌

Tia and Clyde 🐾 :

That credenza is huge and handmade. $900-$1,500

KH :

A huge area rug would help pull the space together. Something patterned and vintage

hknvbhj :

It’s the lack of color, texture and plants that are throwing you off. Nothing is bad (even the wall).

Neekz :

You need a rug, curtains and more visual contrast.

suzpeders :

Swap out those wood floors first in all of the rooms. It’ll help make the house start to feel more cohesive and those creative juices will start flowin (with the help of Modelo)

chloe :

I’m feeling rage baited by the tv

Corey Seffernick :

Love the rock wall. It’ll look so much better once the rest of the space is architecturally digested. 👌🏼 it just sticks out rn.

Ben🦆 :

From one Ben to another Ben, you’re doing great.

AlliOop :

I actually like the rock wall and the couch is fine. (Take that rock community) I think bc the door and floors aren’t done it kinda throws off the vibe a little?

hp :

Not the Michael Scott flat screen 😭😂

✨ I’m just a girl ✨ :

The walls are too white compared to the vibe you’re going for and the floor. The couch is fine, maybe add some throw pillows/blankets with warmer tones and rugs etc etc. I love the rock wall. I just think you need to warm the place up a bit more! What if you bring in the painting technique you used in the other rooms? Adding warmth in curtains and furniture will help bring it all into place! Add bits of green too (like in plants) and it’ll help add color and be more organic/Japandi vibe like the rest of the house seems to be.

Sunshine ☀️ :

you can't hate the couch with the wrong flooring, no rug, or throw pillows

The Boyfriends Closet :

You need a rug to ground the sofa in place, and create a “section” for it and it’ll make more sense

Keely Anderson :

Micheal Scott…? Is that you?

Steezytour :

id pay 2k for something like that

Jess Christensen | Architect :

Having no idea what happens to the left of this view, is there enough space to create a foyer 😬?

Ticktacktock :

My brain cannot handle you starting another room 😂😂

Oops :

The credenza is beautiful but the size of it makes me think of the entertainment center from that one friends episode 😂

Matthew Record :

I like the rock wall

ash 🔪 :

BEN I live in Austin and I literally was just cruising your guys profiles to see where the credenza was from. I WOULD LOVE TO BUY IT!!
