Walking inside Ted’s apartment, it’s pretty apparent that the people living there are not fussy when it comes to the overall look of their place. Instead, they like adding bits and bobs that show all their hobbies and interests.

So if you’re in it for the personality, then channeling the mismatched look of Ted’s apartment is definitely for you. There’s a lot of ways to go around this!

Ted’s Messy Living Room

Ted’s living room is always full of random stuff, but his brown leather couch with the red throw blanket over it is always present.

The long leather sofa in the middle of Ted’s living room is a center point in the whole apartment. The whole gang gravitates towards it so putting in where everyone can access it is vital. And who wouldn’t want to sit down on such a comfy looking couch, right?

What makes the leather sofa all the more comfortable is the ever present red throw blanket slung over it. If you want an equally cozy couch, you should also put one on yours for a more homey feeling.

With such a big group, they wouldn’t really all fit in the couch so it’s important to have another chair in the living room. This red armchair is a great snuggly option for anyone who needs to sit down.
