Hah for a while I slept on the floor because I didn’t care enough to get a bed. Furniture is mostly for when you want to impress guests, and so if you never have guests… The one exception is my recliner - it’s the classic kind with a lever on the side to raise the footrest and it is perhaps the most comfortable thing in the world.
I don’t think that (for example) my couch and my TV which are never used are adding beauty to my living room. I don’t like sitting on a couch and watching TV, but for some reason I imagined that my friends would. Turns out that they don’t like that either, so we never do it when we hang out (we don’t hang out inside my house in the first place) and that stuff just costs money and takes up space.
If I were buying furniture all over again, I think I would just get a desk, an office chair, a bed (with a little end table), and my recliner. I eat at my desk, so I never use anything else.
That’s a different matter altogether. The difference in your case would be the quality of the desk, chair, bed and so on that you’d buy. Also people decorate their houses and they do it because humans enjoy pretty things.

One can enjoy beauty just for… Personal enjoyment as well
