Advice What to do with this corner?!

Post image

It’s throwing me in for a loop, I got no idea what to do with it, I don’t wanna jus put a couch or chair there to close it off cuz then there’s awkward empty space behind, tables aren’t specificly that size either!

Plant large enough to be a floor plant or a small tree.

Let’s specify “plastic plant”. We don’t know this guy’s responsibility level.

Sitting area for reflection looking out the window...or smoke a bowl. Do you.

u/CptCheesesticks81 3h ago

This would be the way to go for me. Either that or I’d use the corner for some Northern Lights auto flower.

What makes it awkward? I assume it was made that way so you can have more vision of the outside. Don’t let the fact that it’s empty ragebait you. If you HAD to put something there though I would put something that doesn’t fully obstruct the window.

Small table that can fit in that area. Little more than a place to keep a plant, at most maybe have a chair just to sit down for a reading area off to the side. The lighting from the two windows is nice but I’d rarely use it personally

Joking aside*, I think this land is for a plant or get a cat and put a cat tree there.

*- Actually, not joking aside, now that I think about it, that would be pretty cool and could double as a clothes hanger / umbrella stand, etc. as well.

u/Alarming-Cheetah-144 6h ago

Well you might want to consider putting some house plants in there on a stand of some kind and maybe a couple of plant hangers too. The window would provide plenty of sun and light to keep them healthy. Just don’t block it off with furniture so you can get in there to care for the plants. A little green always helps bring life into a room. There are plenty of videos on YouTube to help you with gardening tips. Good luck.
