"Interior Design" is like 80 percent cleaning and organization is what I'm learning. Only 20 percent is the more fun and interesting bit about "style" and color pallets.
The "design experts" do know things worth learning even if their advice can sound alien. The best advice I've learned is:
* open shelving can look messy, it's good to put things away sometimes
* think about how much furniture you have, in small spaces you may have too much.But also this is hard! Hard but worth it.

A lot of design advice sounds alien and just ... not for me or most people I know, but buried in there are some useful tips. And I really do need ... guidance.

I'm working on making major changes to my apartment. I'm just tired of it always looking the same and it feels cramped and too stuffed with items.
I was very depressed by this process at first. It seemed impossible.
Then I started thinking about what furniture I could get rid of. We are getting rid of:
* a couch (we have two)
* a bed (we have two)
* a bunch of stuff we don't useJust removing these items has made a huge difference. If feels like a whole new space.

@futurebird Being surrounded by a lot of stuff makes me anxious, so my interior design style is minimalist.

I’m the same!
️ However instead of being minimalist, I just go with the always being anxious.
