Austin is a very cool dude (and a reporter at BuzzFeed!), but he's moved around so much that his NYC apartment wasn't quite finished (or furnished at all!). So we decided to give him some help.
The Problem: Austin didn't have any furniture or anything on the walls.

The Inspiration: Austin took our quiz and learned that his style was minimal and modern.

The Result: A colorful, functional space!

Instead of a nighstand, we used this awesome (and cheap) Ikea stool which tucked perfectly into the space.

To save money, we DIY'd these pillow cases from (unused) dish towels.

Since we didn't have the budget or space for a headboard, we used this perforated metal sheet from the hardware store.
