With the experience of decorating for the first time, it seems to be much more comfortable the second time. From design, material selection to construction, you can grasp your needs more accurately, avoid a lot of unnecessary troubles, and reduce the number of pitfalls. At the same time, you can also use your creativity to create a home space that is more in line with your own wishes.

The second renovation, the traditional design was upgraded and replaced. After moving in, I realized how practical it is.

The gap in the refrigerator is too big VS zero built-in refrigerator

I don’t understand the decoration for the first time. I only know how to put the refrigerator into the cabinet. After the cabinet is customized and the cabinet is put into the refrigerator, The gaps on both sides can be used to run trains. Not only is it unsightly, it also easily harbors dirt.

It became smarter after the second time. It has a zero-embedded design. There is almost no gap between the refrigerator and the cabinet. It is neat and beautiful. . To make a built-in refrigerator, you need to do the following:

① In the early stage of water and electricity construction, you must choose a good refrigerator (you don’t need to buy it yet, but you need to get the size first) , the plumber will leave the socket above the cabinet according to the size. Never leave it on the ice.The back of the box;

② In the whole-house customization stage, provide the merchant with the size of the refrigerator that you have predicted in advance, and reserve it according to the size of the refrigerator. The back of the refrigerator does not need to be tiled or used as a back panel. This will not affect the depth of the cabinet;

③When choosing a refrigerator, be sure to choose one with zero built-in and bottom heat dissipation. The depth should be less than or equal to 600MM, so that the cabinet can meet the national standard thickness. There is no need to spend extra on non-standard customization fees, and it can be perfectly matched with the cabinet, neat and beautiful.

Ordinary five-hole socket VS oblique five-hole socket

The first renovation, the whole house is equipped with traditional five-hole sockets, but when two large plugs are inserted at the same time, it will appear It\’s a bit crowded, which means you can\’t use both at the same time.

After learning from this failure, I chose the design of a misaligned five-hole socket for the second time, with two holes and three holes. The staggered arrangement of the eye jacks allows two large plugs to coexist without interfering with each other, and the staggered five-hole socket is more user-friendly in use. The oblique five-hole design makes it easier for fingers to hold the plug and smoother the operation. Imagine that when you urgently need to charge your phone and tablet at the same time, this slanted five-hole design is a great savior!

And suggestions: If it is in the kitchen, It is even more important to choose a slanted five-hole socket with a switch function. The switch can reduce the number of plugging and unplugging of electrical power plugs, making it more practical.

Ordinary downlights VS small hill spotlights

In order to save trouble when decorating for the first time, I didn’t do enough strategies, so I chose an ordinary downlight and mounted it on the wall. Later I realized that it was not the feeling I wanted, but since I was new, I was afraid of wasting money, so I just made do with it.

For the second decoration, I chose small hill spotlights. Once the lights were turned on, the shape of the hill was clean and clear, with no secondary light spots. Even the neighbors next door said it looked good, and the wall-washing atmosphere was full. .

Pipeline is not embedded VS pipe is embedded

Needless to say, there is no pre-buried design. After you move in, put the TV, router and other electrical appliances on top of the TV cabinet. It will definitely be messy. However, the pre-embedded design can hide all the wires and make them clean and tidy. In addition to this pipe, the following pipes must also be pre-buried:

EmptyAdjusting pipes: Pre-bury air-conditioning pipes in advance, and communicate with the plumber on-site how to do it, otherwise errors may easily occur during later installation;

Bathroom cabinet wall pipes: Pre-install When burying pipes, be careful not to choose 45-degree elbows. Use 90-degree elbows, which can effectively prevent water and odor;

Pipeline pipe: The water purifier and the pipe machine are connected with a 2 cm water pipe, which can effectively prevent the water pipe from being exposed and unsightly.

Ordinary ceiling lamp VS fan lamp

I don’t know if you have the same problem as me Feeling, after turning on the air conditioner for a long time in summer, I always want to open the window for ventilation, but when I open the window, there is no wind at all, only a heat wave hits! Also, in April and May, it is wasteful to turn on the air conditioner. If you want to be cool and ventilated, the fan light is really fragrant!

For the second renovation, my wife replaced all the ordinary ceiling lights in the dining room and bedroom with fan lights, which are particularly practical. .

Single-layer wall cabinet VS double-layer wall cabinet

Traditional wall cabinets are useless, so it is better to upgrade to a double-layer wall cabinet. The upper floor is an ordinary deep wall cabinet (for enlarging items that are not commonly used), and the lower floor is shallower and can be easily reached. Commonly used items are not as deep as traditional wall cabinets and are divided into layers. There is no need to stand on tiptoes or move stools. It is very friendly to little girls. All spices are hidden. There is no need to buy various storage supplies for ugly bottles, and they are fully utilized.

Ordinary trouser rail VS pull-out trouser rail

The traditional trouser rail is just one, and it has been upgraded to a pull-out trouser rail, which can maximize the use of the depth of the wardrobe. It can now hang 30 pairs of trousers, and now it can be doubled for storage. The space is quite generous, providing enough space to store pants, and it looks neat and beautiful.

First time installing kitchen VS second time. Secondary kitchen

The first time I decorate, I only know how to decorate the walls. Use large bricks so that there are fewer gaps and are easier to clean. For the second decoration, I upgraded to using a whole slate board between the upper and lower cabinets. There is no gap, which is easier to clean and can be magnetically attached to the back of the cabinets for storage. Tail goods, you can’t see anything if you block them, save a lot of money;

In the first decoration, the base cabinets were made of shelves, which made it troublesome to squat down to find things; in the second decoration, try to make classified drawers underneath so that they are easy to access at a glance

Mu Chen has something to say

The second decoration will be more experienced than before. If conditions permit, do the above 8 wise decoration decisions can make our homes more comfortable.
