Home Editor: Beautiful Home Guide

Many people have spent a lifetime of savings to buy a house. When it comes to decoration, they definitely hope that the decoration effect will be both beautiful and practical. The key is to save money. However, there are so many things to pay attention to when decorating, so many people get into trouble when decorating for the first time.

Actually, when I think about it, when I was decorating, because I hadn’t moved in yet. Go in, so you can\’t rely on experience to test the practicality of the decoration. So this also makes many people have the idea of ​​\”pretending to be good\”. This kind of thinking also prompts us to pay a lot of IQ tax.

In fact, people who have experienced it know that there are many places in decoration that do not need to be installed too well. As long as they meet the basic functional requirements, ordinary installation methods are enough strong>. For example, in the following five places, you can use the \”ordinary installation method\”, which is both economical and practical.

1. Interior door

Interior doors are a major item in building materials. Many people believe that they must buy good, environmentally friendly and high-quality ones. For example, solid wood doors or solid wood composite doors. In fact, after you move in, you will find that most of the indoor doors installed are just decorations. The indoor doors are only closed at night and are left open the rest of the time.

So as long as the environmental protection level can meet the standards, there is no need to choose high-priced solid wood.Doors, solid wood composite doors. The prices of these two types of interior doors are generally over a thousand yuan. The most common paint-free door, also known as \”ecological door\”, is the most cost-effective indoor door.

Because the surface of the ecological door is painted and formed at one time, the production process is relatively simple and the construction period is short, so its cost is relatively low . The price of ecological doors on the general market is generally between six and seven hundred yuan. Calculated based on a house with three bedrooms and one living room, the total cost of three ecological doors is less than 2,000 yuan, which is considered the most economical solution.

2. Kitchen and bathroom ceiling

I don’t know since when, a trend of “kitchen and bathroom gypsum board ceilings” has emerged in the decoration industry. Whether it is the kitchen or the bathroom, many people choose to follow the trend because of the \”appearance\” of gypsum board ceilings. In fact, the gypsum board ceiling only looks good in photos, and its practicality is a mess.

Whether it is a kitchen or a bathroom, the gypsum board ceiling is easily susceptible to moisture and mold, and it is irreversible. Of course, there are some waterproof gypsum boards, but they will still get damp after three to five years of use. Moreover, the gypsum board ceiling in the kitchen is easily yellowed by oil smoke.. The appearance of a discolored gypsum board ceiling will definitely be greatly compromised.

Gypsum board ceiling is not only not practical, but also has high cost. It is not only gypsum board that needs to be installed. Cost, as well as keel, labor and other expenses. Instead of spending tens of thousands of dollars on decorating a gypsum board ceiling, it is better to choose an affordable aluminum gusset ceiling.

Aluminum gusset ceilings are not only cheap, but also very practical. They can be easily wiped even if they are dirty. The more important thing is that it will not mold at all and can be reused.

To be honest, if you choose this pure white matte no-buckle style for the aluminum gusset plate, it will not lose in appearance. Plasterboard suspended ceiling. You must know that the decoration effect is almost the same, but the decoration cost is several times different. Therefore, it is recommended that if you buy a house again, it is wisest to choose this kind of aluminum gusset ceiling for cabinet ceilings.

3. Smash less walls and build fewer walls

Whether it is the balcony of the living room or the bay window of the bedroom, many people like to smash or build walls for the natural purpose. Meet the needs of space. In fact, the residential units designed by the developers can meet the requirements of living even if they do not make any changes. Therefore, if possible, they will not do it.

After all, whether it is smashing or building, it will increase a lot of costs, especially now that Internet celebrity decoration has become popular, smashing bay windows and building niches seems to have become a trend.

Take the installation of a niche in the bathroom as an example. It is understandable if the niche can be built with the help of the location of the sewer pipe. After all, it is Reasonable use of space and reasonable design and planning. However, many people even build false walls for niches, which is unnecessary. Not only will it increase the cost, it will also make the small bathroom more crowded.

4. Sliding door

The sliding door market is also a mixed bag, with many varieties and varying prices. Many people think that kitchen sliding doors and balcony sliding doors must be equipped with \”hanging rails\” or be high-end. Three-linkage and four-linkage sliding doors. In fact, after moving in, you will know that each of these sliding doors has its own shortcomings.

Although the hanging rail door is simple and elegant, it has poor stability, high maintenance rate, and high cost. Just to make the door take up less space, the price has doubled. However, many people never close the balcony sliding door and kitchen sliding door at all.

Compared with the impractical sliding doors above, traditional ground track sliding doors can actually meet basic needs. Especially this kind of minimalist track door with copper strips is not only beautiful, but also very practical. Of course, its price is naturally much lower than that of hanging track doors and linkage doors.

5. Ground

The decoration of the ground is definitely a major item among the hard furnishings. Whether it is laying ceramic tiles or laying wooden floors, it is a lot of expenditure. If you want to save money on decoration, the purchase of floor building materials is very important. If you choose wooden flooring, there is no need to choose pure solid wood flooring. It is not only expensive (generally more than 500 yuan), but also difficult to take care of after moving in and requires regular maintenance. It will also bulge and deform when encountering a floor heating room.

The middle-priced solid wood composite flooring is the wisest choice. Of course, if you’re on a budget, you can even opt for laminate flooring. Just consider that the environmental protection level is not lower than E1 level.

If the interior floor decoration plan chooses ceramic tiles. It is enough to mainly consider the hardness, water absorption, anti-slip and aesthetics of the tiles. Since the ceramic tiles themselves have no technical content, there is no need to choose a big brand. Many people buy branded ceramic tiles at high prices, and at least 30% of the cost is the manufacturer\’s IQ tax, which is better known as \”brand premium fee.\”

Also remind everyone, if you choose ceramic tiles, be careful not to follow the trend and consider gray tiles. Single-piece gray tiles are indeed high-end. But after moving in, you will find that the gray floor tiles will greatly reduce the brightness of the living room, and even need lighting to remedy it during the day.

Said. At the end:

Decoration is a bottomless pit. If you want to achieve the desired effect and save money, you must look at the experiences and lessons learned by those who have experienced it. Some seemingly advanced designs are just gorgeous in appearance and practical. Sex is not guaranteed. So don’t pay IQ tax for appearance.
