What is on your wall
Finishing up undergrad this semester and moving to nyc. I live in a fraternity house so decorations are as you imagine (flags, posters, etc.). Looking to get some ideas from you guys on how a recent grad's apartment should be decorated. Im guessing that my college decorations wont fly, but I'm also not ready to decorate super formal with expensive art or anything like that.
artcanvas pieces on Amazon are good for tasteful yet low-rent. better than a poster, but not the kinda investment you need for framing a nice piece of art
I think you get a piece or two of art, maybe a framed folded American flag, and a couple of low maintenance plants (succulents, air plants, spider plants). enough so that people don't think you're using it as a trap house, but not so much that if you need to move you've got a ton of shit to carry with you
Apart from Post-its, nothing
My fave which I've had since like 15 is is this:
I also have like a 12' American flag covering most of the ceiling in my office
Notable other things: A Putin-satire-themed bathroom, Mona Lisa shooting up painting, Madonna giving a dead baby a bottle, vinyl collection... my wife's steadily putting up photo walls, lots of paintings my wife and I both painted, the biggest old school world map I could find, some of those horizontal tapestry thingies from Japan, some cool 3D heads. I also like my Churchill holding a tommy gun framed photo thingie. Lot of random shit.
Get some clocks. Cool clocks are like $20 on Target.com. Also IKEA has cool wall clocks.
What I think my wall looks like
What is really on my wall
But seriously, I have a giant mirror full of equations and diagrams for my work and research.
Besides that I have a small multi-colored wolf painting I got as a gift. I love animals, especially wolves so I actually like it. The wolf is staring right at you and sometimes at night it feels like the eyes look like they're glowing. Kinda looks like this but more visceral.
American Flag
Nothing else.
What in the white. Do people actually have American flags on their wall. Tf
yeah sure they do. I was too lazy to buy art or posters and that was the only thing I had.
Looks good to me.
ps: I haven't even unpacked yet. all my stuff remains in boxes until I move out. haha.
I keep a picture of a boat and plane hanging on the ceiling above my bed to remind me why I'm getting up out of bed in the morning.

I have a pair of old used jeans hanging on my wall. If somebody asks about it which is a lot of the time; I say it is a contemporary sculpture. They then nod their heads in approval for my artistic taste.
I am looking to pick up some Roy Lichtenstein prints, an original David Choe piece, and maybe some George Condo although his art freaks me out.
respect for the david choe
I have large paintings on the walls. Most of them are mine, but there are a few other artists as well.
A banana taped on
remember to replace every 3 days to keep it fresh
white paint
Flag of my country, papers with motivational sentences on them, pictures of my family, you name it. Back at home I have two art posters that I really like.
You can find some good canvas art prints with a quick google search if you are into that kind of thing.
Besides that, I’d say an American flag is a good call. I’m also partial to those vintage ski posters, but that’s personal taste
eBay has a ton of cool antique print ads for pretty cheap. I bought some vintage print ads / magazine covers for things I'm interested in and some vintage travel posters in a neat art deco style advertising my city. The best part is there's a pretty standard 8.5x11 size, so you can get a bunch of cheap frames off Amazon and it looks more coordinated than it is
