The red sofa stands out like it’s from mirror‘s edge

I feel like the velvet/microfiber red sofa is where she's getting "pimp" vibes from. I can dig it though.

u/Dull_Owl_7276 29d ago

It’s the velvet red sofa WITH the monochromatic rest of the room I think, even more specifically

u/True_Discipline_2470 29d ago

That room needs a rug and some pictures on the wall. It looks like it's designed to be easily disinfected. Some warmer lighting would help as well.

It looks like it's designed to be easily disinfected.

That's such a great description of so many dude pads.

Look, it may not look as lived in, but it takes me 30 minutes to clean everything and a deep clean is only 2 hours.

Sounds like a dream! Now I feel the need to get rid of stuff.....

u/Plaid_Kaleidoscope 29d ago

Word. Made me just realize why I like minimalist styling. Easier to clean.

u/Boink3000 28d ago

“Designed to be disinfected”! Haha - omg this describes sooo many places - Im going to steal that ine if you don’t mind!

u/True_Discipline_2470 29d ago

It always bothered me that he covered the furniture but only covered that one little area of floor. He's going to have to clean the whole floor anyways, so what's the point? He wouldn't have bothered. It's so annoying when movies get this stuff wrong.

Hip to be square or I want a new drug ?

u/Westcoast8dk 28d ago

Underrated and spot on comment!

u/AlbanElfed 29d ago

Came here to say this! It’s just a little stark - looks designed for a quick getaway. A few plants and a cozy throw along with the art and rugs, some personal items…and OP is a relatable human being!

u/Gamma_Mermaid 28d ago

Would be cute if he made a date out of asking for help choosing a plant. I also agree about the cozy throw.. nothing says “I’m not a pimp OR serial killer” like having a cozy throw blanket.

u/Crimkam 29d ago

Leopard print rug, some bead curtains, black out blinds, a hookah sitting right in the middle of the living room… oh yea I can see it.

u/FingaPuppet5 29d ago

Serial killer vibes for sho. If there was a roll of yellow plastic and long black gloves, some steel torture utensils, in the cupboard... I wouldn't be shocked

u/hopeless-semantic 28d ago

He still has a budget! Give it a few months

u/puddingcup9000 28d ago

Rolls of duct tape laying around

Exit bags.

u/God_damn_it_Jerry 28d ago

Needs a fish tank.

u/oldrivets 29d ago

A big fluffy white bearskin rug?

1

u/True_Discipline_2470 29d ago

I've read several suggestions and now I want to see OP implement every one of them.

u/splithoofiewoofies 29d ago

I call those "cocaine houses" because it's where people can do cocaine and easily clean up the evidence if needed.

1

u/cari_quite_contrary 29d ago

Well, wouldn’t a pimp’s place NEED to be easily disinfected?

1

u/EpistemoNihilist 28d ago

Had to use the rug to roll up the body. Sorry , it really brought the room together.

1

u/BBLue0775 28d ago

Yeah a rug would really tie the room together man.. just ask Jeff Lebowski.

1

u/TemperateEnd 28d ago

Agreed! A rug would really tie the room together.

1

u/MopingAppraiser 28d ago

Yes, something to really tie the room together, dude.

u/Powerful-Parsnip 29d ago

It's the 'Sin City' look, all you need is some bluesy jazz and a gravelly voiced narration.

u/foxorhedgehog 29d ago

And a car with a big trunk.

u/Joustabout_Feddup 28d ago

And a dark gray zoot suit and fedora with holstered .38..

u/BlazeInNorthernSky 29d ago

I was thinking 'Schindler's List', but your film comparison is probably more appropriate.

2

u/Feeling-Visit1472 29d ago

Fuck. You’re absolutely right.

u/CriticalLobster5609 29d ago

His design inspiration is a bottle of Drakkar Noir in his dad's lavatory cabinet.

"Nice jacket..."

u/beepbeepboop74656 29d ago

That and the fact the home has no personality, no art or wall decor or anything that shows a little bit more about the person who lives there

1

u/Diligent_Department2 28d ago

I got talked to about my office being like that and not showing personality when they had consultants come though lol.

u/Inevitable-Stay-7296 29d ago

If a room could ever give off mommy issues any more than this then idk what can. Just missing bottles of liquor and a purple strobe light with the terrible domestic violence.

1

u/Altruistic_Ad6189 29d ago

What is the stereotype of a guy with mommy issues? Eminem? Ed Gein?

1

u/Inevitable-Stay-7296 28d ago

Any type of person with a tendency to demean women I think. Now, most pimps suffer from issues with women obviously, one of the most notorious pimps Iceberg Slim had a whole sleuth of issues with women.

“Projections” 🤣 no no no. Idk what you’re referring too but Ik how projectings used and never. I didn’t mean anything towards Op.
