Renovation is like jumping into a bottomless pit, and even though you've done your homework ahead of time, you can still fall into all sorts of pitfalls.
I remember when I renovated my first house, I didn't know anything about decoration, I just blindly chased the trend, thinking that design on the Internet was synonymous with practicality.
However, when I followed the trend and completed the renovation, I found that many of the designs were beautiful but not very practical. Therefore, we should all pay more attention to the practicality of design.
In my experience of renovating three houses, I finally understand five "advanced designs" that are truly practical and worth learning from each of us!
When decorating a house, we must pay attention to the importance of detailed design, otherwise it will affect our experience of use.
For example, many people ignore the hidden wires in the design of the TV background wall in the living room, and as a result, the wires are a mess, which is not only unsightly, but also prone to danger.
To solve this problem, we had to make sure that the socket was lower than the TV cabinet when designing the TV backdrop, so that the design was hidden.
By reserving a 50mm pipe inside the wall, you can thread the wires from above, hiding the wires perfectly and keeping the whole neat and tidy.
When decorating an entryway, don't just consider the traditional floor-to-ceiling entryway cabinet, which is beautiful but not practical.
As an experienced person, I would like to really advise everyone: the entryway cabinet should be reserved for about 20 cm. This small change will greatly facilitate your life.
In the past, when we came home, our shoes were always piled up at the door, which not only looked messy, but also caused odors.
And if you design a suspended shoe cabinet in advance, you can easily solve these problems and make storage more convenient:
(1) When you get home, you can put the shoes you wore that day in the empty space of the shoe cabinet, and the shoes you didn't wear can be neatly stored to keep the entrance area clean and tidy.
(2) Because the shoe cabinet adopts a suspended design, it is also very convenient to clean, whether it is sweeping or mopping the floor, it can be easily completed, and the entrance area is always clean and tidy.
Previous cabinets were usually designed with handles, mainly for easy opening and closing.
However, over time, you will find that this design is actually quite frivolous, not only taking up space, but also affecting the overall aesthetics of the cabinet.
Therefore, if there is an opportunity to redecorate, I recommend that all cabinets can be designed without handles, so that the design looks more uniform and simpler!
Especially for minimalist families, the handle-free design can better ensure the cleanliness and unity of the home environment, avoiding the risk of accidentally colliding with the handle.
Nowadays, handle-free cabinet designs are very popular and can be implemented in a variety of ways:
For example, the rebounder, the built-in door opening, the door panel extension, etc., you can choose the most suitable door opening method according to your own needs when customizing the cabinet.
No matter how big your bathroom is, storage issues are always one of the headaches!
The countertop is full of various items, which look cluttered and inconvenient to use, such as toiletries, cleaning products, and various miscellaneous items.
The main reason why the bathroom looks cluttered is because you don't have the right way to store it.
We should use space wisely and use the right storage tools to ensure that your restroom is always clean and tidy.
For example, you can make the most of the space under the sink and install tools such as shelves and boxes.
With a multi-layered design, you can keep all your frequently used items neatly organized without taking up too much space and making them easy to access.
We can't ignore the spatial potential of the balcony, which can be transformed into a fully functional area if used wisely.
My house has now turned the balcony into a laundry area, and it is very convenient to put the washing machine and dryer here.
Considering that many homes are now relatively small, placing a washing machine in the bathroom may take up too much space. Placing the washing machine on the balcony can effectively solve this problem.
Creating a laundry cabinet for your balcony will not only make it easier for you to use the washing machine, but it will also protect the washing machine from direct exposure to sunlight and add extra storage space.
If you plan to do this, you should reserve the required dimensions and wiring in advance when renovating.
You can also consider a built-in washer and dryer with storage next to it for your usual cleaning tools and products.
The built-in and sealed cabinet design is not only easy to use, but also prevents dust accumulation. You might as well give this design a try.
Write at the end:
The decoration designs introduced above are very practical solutions, and you can choose according to your actual needs to create a more comfortable home living environment.
