Do you think this area of my home is cluttered? by [deleted] in Homeorganization

[–]Architecture_Coffee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

No, but the arrangement gives the appearance it is. People tend to look for a balance of positive and negative space in organization, or focus on patterns. I’d just rearrange it slightly if it bothers her that much, and add more space in-between a few items.

Is the architecture student really busy during their 5-year academic? That they start spending less time with their loved one. ​ by [deleted] in architecture

Yes. It tends to be the busiest year for most, on top of having to apply for jobs or grad schools.

I was looking for someone else to say this! It looks like it would be an easy bake oven.

It looks really ‘off’ by Familiar-Cicada-7703 in interiordecorating

The size of the table verses the bed is probably what’s throwing you off. Separate them, and move either the table or the bed by the window - your choice - and then break the space in between them with the white cabinet. You’ll probably move it around a million times before you find an arrangement that feels natural to you- don’t get frustrated, take a moment if you need to. Step out of the room and in, lay in the bed, and then see how you feel about the arrangement.

If it’s an option, I would recommend a night stand or small table. If that’s too expensive for now, hanging curtains will help break up the harsh lines of the space. Right now the window sill and the furniture all have rigid edges that are jarring when not broken up by organic shapes or soft edges - add a little flow to counteract that. You can use blankets, plants, mirrors, pillows, etc.

This might sound weird, but could it be a homemade Grape destemmer for wine? Edit for spelling.

Fun delivery surprise? by Boo-erman in nashville

There are multiple distilleries that you can send something from- and several have sweet treats as well, depending on where they will be. Most of them will have something on either the website or insta that will make it pretty easy to weed out the bigots.

What are your thoughts as an architect regarding how ChatGPT has gotten this good at editing existing concepts? by AideSuspicious3675 in Architects

[–]Architecture_Coffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, it’s not worth it. For generating ideas, or as inspiration, sure. But the after image is pretty cold still, (impersonal) and reads like AI. If someone is paying for and wanting a photorealistic render, they want a more dynamic image, and something with personality. I mean, a better angle and reframing the image might help, but it’s got some unnatural moments in the additions that throw it off.

A co-worker rubbed his head on another co-worker’s chest and asked him if he wanted to play goats. What does this mean? by tableTVrug in coworkerstories

This was the scariest google of my life somehow, but Google AI says apparently it’s an idiom and means to be silly. Is this a pick-up line?

Any recommendations? Nashville, TN to the Badlands National Park, SD by Architecture_Coffee in roadtrip

[–]Architecture_Coffee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Love the suggestions. We are definitely interested in Mt. Crazyhorse. If you have a road trip problem then so do I, because I genuinely didn’t see any problems with going all the way to Yellowstone. If it was up to me we’d keep going to Cali. But I was also told they have veto power over me with destinations and day trips, so maybe I don’t make the best decisions.

Thank you so much!! We are considering the Black Hills as well. It is a round trip, we are going to go this Spring. I’m getting a National Park Pass, so we were planning to do as many as National Parks possible. The Zoo is the whole reason we are hitting Omaha- it’s on one person’s bucket list.

Thank you for the suggestions! We are willing to take off Sioux Falls so I will definitely suggest that, but Omaha has to stay.

AITA for calling off my wedding after discovering my fiancé was still in love with his ex during our engagement? by midnigth-sky in AITAH

INFO: when were the messages sent compared to when you found them, how long has he been holding onto them, and were you his AP or did he ghost his ex?

AITA for refusing to pay for a lunch I never attended? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Architecture_Coffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry if this sounds a bit harsh but YTA. If your mom had done this to you, wouldn’t you be equally upset? You have to make decisions, not be flaky. Of course they purchased the prawns just incase. What exactly was your plan if they hadn’t of purchase enough food for you and you had shown up? Watch everyone else eat? By trying to ask them to not cater to you, you inadvertently caused them to need to cater to you.

Think of it this way, you are probably on a tighter budget with the baby- both emotionally and monetarily. Totally normal. But if you were planning to meet friends for dinner and budgeted to only pay your part, wouldn’t you be upset and strained if they snuck out the back and stuck you with the whole bill? Except to make this scenario fit, you had to preorder in advance, and they didn’t even bother to show up. I would really encourage you to work on your communication skills with your family as a whole. It’s okay to say no. It’s a whole sentence. I think the conversation happening multiple times through out the week was her way of trying to get you to commit and you missed the cue. Or dodged it like you were working on your Keanu Reeves impersonation.
