About various pitfalls in buying and decorating a house, Xingzhi has a lot to say~ I have been sorting out related things recently, so let’s have a brief chat together. I have summarized 10 tips in total~

The 5 most regretful things about the previous decoration

1. Follow the trend and adopt popular designs on the Internet without considering the actual situation

<span style=\"color; Thunderous, andI stepped on 8 of them in a row. It’s really a waste of money. .

If you see Just imitate whatever is popular instead of thinking about it first:\”Is this style really suitable for me? ”

Then you are decorating The first step was wrong.

You must start from your own needs and communicate your real needs with the designer instead of blindly following the trend!

▲This is The crooked tricks come up with by home bloggers, for the sake of beauty,Use air vents to wrap up the air conditioner, resulting in slow air return efficiency .

2. I regret not choosing the large single tank, as the small double tank pot cannot be washed

so that it can be washed When cooking the pot, Xiao ShuangThere is no space for it in any slot.

For small area kitchens , a large single slot will be more useful than a small double slot. The length of the sink must be at least 60cm to be useful, and the depth greater than 22cm is less likely to splash water.

For those who want to be more hygienic and install double sinks, it is recommended to install a large sink and a small sink, the large tank can be used for washing pots and dishes, and the small tank can be used for washing vegetables and fruits. The length of the tank should be more than 75cm, and the length of the large tank should be 40cm or more.

3. All spaces There are not enough sockets, so it’s very troublesome to pull them out when you need to use them

ranked first My biggest home decoration regret has to be \”sockets\”, and more than one person complained to YiYi:

The socket next to the bedside is blocked by the bedside table, and I feel uncomfortable when I want to charge itDespair!

I carefully selected the appliances, and only discovered it after they were delivered to my home…There is no socket to plug in…

There are not many sockets reserved in the master bedroom bathroom. Every time I want to blow dry my hair, I justI want to scold the electrician 10,000 times!!

4. I regret not installing a fresh air system, as ventilation is not possible in haze weather

The north is dry, However, the smog is quite serious, and I almost don’t dare to open the windows, so I installed a fresh air system. Filters out all dust particles in smog, making indoor air fresher and preventing dust from accumulating indoors.

In addition, the fresh air systemCan be used all year round, especially in summer and winter, you canAssistantly adjust indoor temperature, making the indoor temperature more moderate.

5. There are too few hiding and storage designs. The result is: it always appears in front of me in a mess

The most common Just forget to reserve a storage cabinet for various daily necessities such as vacuum cleaners, mops, brooms, and washbasins. In fact, as long as there is a cabinet of about 1㎡,Put on a perforated board and you can hang them all up; if you need to charge, leave a socket; for a sweeper, you can leave space at the bottom of the cabinet.

Storage cabinets should also be designed more rationally, with different storage options for different items. For example, the length and height of mats and quilts need to be considered, and whether clothes and pants should be stacked or hung.

I plan to do these 5 things again during my next renovation

1. It is better to keep the ceiling simple. A ceiling that is too complicated will be too depressing unlessThe floor height is very high, you can consider it

Many people choose Complicated ceiling design, but now for more and more people, No main light design, insufficient floor height, I like simple style, let More and more people are choosing ceiling simplification.

▲Flat ceilingNo need for any shape or layer, it does not occupy the height of the living room, while maintaining a simple and neat visual effect;

▲This kind Most suspended ceilings are made ofPure white plaster line, outline the shape on the ceiling, or use your own Finished plaster lines with shapes and patterns are used to complete the perfect transition between the roof and the wall to avoid the visual effect being too single;

▲Use various speciesLinear Lightsto enrich the top surface, beautify the visual space, and also bring people a very fashionable aesthetic experience;

▲The top space exposing pipelines, beams, and air conditioning equipment Standard in industrial retro style.

2. Choose furniture with thin legs to make the space appear larger, especially suitable for small apartments

\”Xiaoxi \”Leg\” furniture pays more attention to user experience in design,Focus on making up for use defects in design,For example, in order to reduce the cleaning burden , design each surface into a smoother curved surface and a flatter plane, so from the appearance, the thin-legged furnitureStronger lines, lighter structure, simple yet textured, refined yet down-to-earth.

The small thin legs do not occupy too much space, reducing the visual obstruction of the furniture, making the space appear more transparent, and the overall lighting becomes much brighter.

3. Is the European-style range hood really fancy but useless, or is the integrated stove both beautiful and practical?

Compared to Chinese style range hood\”Heavy\”, the distinctive feature of European cigarette machines is the appearance design Fashionable and elegant, giving people a more feeling\”Thin, light and compact\”.

But for a long time , European-style range hoods have been criticized\”The oil fume cannot be sucked cleanly\”The problem is actually the embroidered pillow. Good to see but not useful!

So instead of buying a range hood that is \”useless\” to use and takes up space, it is better to actuallyPurchase an integrated stove that integrates many functions into one, is beautiful and practical, and can also save your budget, wouldn’t it be a wiser choice?

4. The faucet can be pulled out, which is convenient for people who wash their hair frequently. It is super convenient

In addition to the normal faucet In addition to washing your hands and face, washing your hair in the basin is also a common need. Here is a faucet: Pull-out retractable faucet.

The pull-out faucet is actually a hand-held function similar to a shower head. It is usually used like an ordinary faucet. When needed, the faucet head can be pulled out. There is a The hose is connected, which is very convenient for washing hair or cleaning basins and countertops.

Kitchen faucets are also available The pull-out style is also very convenient for cleaning the corners of the sink! The water outlet can be moved at will, whether adding water for cooking, washing dishes, or water flow All are easily accessible,You can wash wherever you want,as convenient as you want Convenient, highly recommended to install one!

5. The balcony is not only used for drying clothes, it must be both practical and beautiful,So that the tens of thousands of dollars you spent will not be in vain

The balcony decoration is indeed There are many possibilities, it could beGarden type, or Casual type, or Study type, and can also perform various other functions…

▲ Leisure balcony , a few pots of green plants, a small table and two chairs, and read a book;

▲ Put it aside Zhang XiaoshuThe table can be directly transformed into a study room;

▲ If you usually If you have time to bask in the sun and relax, it would be best to put a lounge chair or a swing chair;

▲ Change to An activity area for children is also good;

▲ Made into a floor or tatami The tea room can also be used as a bed in critical moments.

A balcony can also fulfill multiple functions. As long as you put a little thought into it, it can actually be doneHave both\’s~

mentioned above There are a few things that I personally feel strongly about, and they are not necessarily strictly needed. Owners with higher living requirements can refer to them~

In addition to what I mentioned,What do you think are things that you didn\’t think of or didn\’t have the conditions to use during the decoration, and it was too late by the time you wanted to use them later?
