I lived like this the first year of my postdoc and couldn't have been happier. I had 4 place settings but only used one and washed it after every meal. Desk, computer, one camp chair, and an inflatable mattress. Stayed that way until my wife joined me my second year and made me get a real apartment.

Two beds1?1?
You gotta stay optimistic

If it means lower rent then hell yeah!
wrote on last edited by [email protected]there are teensy tiny municipally-owned apartments available in a city near me for like 200€ per month and i'm absolutely planning to get one if i ever get an income, they're so smol that the "kitchen" is a recessed wardrobe with a sink and like 2 hotplates, which honestly considering how we have perfectly decent bags of frozen meals that you can just toss in a pot for 10 minutes is perfectly acceptable for a single-person household!

I'm too old to be getting down on the fucking ground like that. Needs a frame of cinder blocks and plywood.

The minimal furniture and a sense of free space are great for my mental health. A cluttered home to me feels like a cluttered mind. I don't want to live in a cage of excess stuff, much like I don't want to carry unhealthy mental baggage with me, pulling me down. You may see a sparse room, but I see freedom from sensory fatigue. I see freedom.

Man, I am too old to sleep on the floor. I also prefer a separate bedroom without electronic distractions. But I do love me some minimalism.

You should do that anyways. Bed frames exost for a reason: it helps to stop moisture building up on the underside of the mattress, and thus prevents mold.

i've been getting help these past few weeks cleaning up my room and my god, it's so nice to just have empty surfaces! It really is like every visible item occupies space in your mind.
though i feel like explicit decorations don't really take up space in the same way, provided they're placed correctly.

I love that you look at this and say "woah, that's way too much, I prefer less"
Not much value in empty space

Pfft. Just buy a new mattress and put it in a different place

You can keep your living space as clean or dirty as you like. With all the open space you can use those big duster mops.
Probably take like 5 minutes. Those are over a meter wide
Five minutes, Jesus Christ. And you prpbably want me to do that every month or something. Ridiculous

I'm sorry, maybe I'm a bit arrogant but, even if I live for PC and a bed, without any window I'd shoot myself
Edit: maybe the picture was taken by night, but it feels like there's no window
I'm thinking it's a basement

Anime pillow gets the mattress.

I don't get why people hate on this. Do all the useless nick-nacks actually add something to their lives?
If this is all you need, what's the problem?
Needs more books. Honestly all these minimal setups are kinda bad if you want something that isn't a computer.

I don't need a bed, but an air mattress is a HARD no.
I'd rather sleep on a clear carpet with a blanket.

It is just missing a cinder block nightstand and a dead plastic plant to tie the place together.
