Decoration costs money, and more importantly, it takes a lot of thought. If you spend a lot of money and buy everything as expensive, but the result is either ugly here or inappropriate there, it will be a big loss.
For example, a friend just finished the decoration last year, because he bought the first suite, so he was very willing to spend money on the decoration. He bought tens of thousands of sofas, beds, refrigerators, etc., which is also "luxury" for ordinary families.
But later, I encountered many problems. First, I found that the refrigerator was too big to fit in the kitchen and dining room. Finally, I had to put it in the living room. Secondly, the color of the sofa is too deep. The big black sofa looks very cold when placed in the living room that is not a large apartment. In addition, the bed in the bedroom is too big, blocking the jack, and so on.
It is said that the decoration should be light on hard decoration and heavy on soft decoration, because heavy decoration is the foundation and soft decoration is the soul. Whether the combination of soft and hard decoration is well done directly affects the final use comfort and aesthetic feeling. Next, we will introduce some pitfalls that may appear in the design of soft decoration. Please pay attention to them.
Obviously, after measuring the size of the background wall of the master bedroom, I bought a 2-meter bed, but why is the purchased bed wider than the actual one? Not only can the bedside table not fit, but also the jack on the wall cannot be used.
There are also refrigerators, which can't be placed directly after they are bought too large, or they can't be placed. But because the thickness of the box was not considered at the beginning, they were placed on the reserved position of the restaurant wine cabinet, which just protrudes a large part from the cabinet, which is more ugly and more ugly.
How big the furniture is, one is to consider whether it can be put down, the other is to consider whether it is proportional. If you buy too big, you can't put it down directly. If you buy too small, it is not proportionate, and it will also appear petty and ugly.
In order to help people avoid the pit, here are some suggestions on slowing down the purchase size of home decoration:
① Bed: the size of the bed refers to the size of the mattress that can be put down. If the purchased bed type is the type with the backrest or frame extended, the extended size should also be included;
② Sofa: The size of the sofa depends on the width of the background wall, and its length should be about 3/4 of the length of the background wall;
③ Refrigerator: The length, width and height of refrigerators are different due to their different capacities. In order to be beautiful, we should not only consider whether the width and height can fit, but also consider the thickness. Of course, the cooling space of the refrigerator should also be reserved.
④ Television: one of the dimensions of a television is based on the viewing distance, which is calculated by multiplying the diagonal distance by 2, and the other is based on the width of the television cabinet. It is better to keep both ends of the television cabinet at least 10 cm wider than the television;
⑤ Lamps: If the living room is usually 10 to 15 square meters, it is recommended to buy a 60 cm diameter one. If it is too large, it is easy to feel pressured. For the living room about 15 to 20 square meters, you can buy a 70 cm diameter one. If the living room is installed with pendant lamp, the pendant lamp should be 2~2.2m away from the ground.
Indoor color matching is also an important knowledge, especially for soft clothes. The colors are rich, and the materials are diverse. If the matching is not good, it is not only ugly, but also very messy.
Xiaoming also discussed the indoor color matching with Baozi before. Here, Xiaoming will briefly tell you about the principles of color matching:
The overall color should not be more than 3, but different shades in the same color system can be used to create a sense of hierarchy;
The overall tone is mainly light color, and some parts are decorated with dark color;
The curtain color can follow the color of the wall or sofa; ④ Items of the same color and different materials shall not be put together;
Many people may like more than one style. They may like both modern minimalism and Chinese classical beauty. However, unless you are an artist, if you choose to mix and match, the result may be different.
For example, Ming Ming's hard decoration is generally modern and simple. When he bought a sofa, he fell in love with a European style sofa, or he was very simple on the whole. When he bought lamps, he fell in love with the luxury crystal lamps of Blingbling; It is clearly a small house, so we must imitate the artist and hang a large decorative painting on the background wall of the sofa······
It was cool when I bought it, but after it was displayed, the effect was really silly.
So when buying soft clothes, Baozi must not only look good, but also choose items with uniform tonality from the perspective of the overall decoration style, rather than buying whatever they like, and finally make the house messy.
Trap 4: disorderly placing decorations
Some treasures are delicate and like to buy all kinds of decorations and put them at home, such as small sculptures beside TV cabinets, various handicrafts and vases on display cabinets, etc.
Indeed, putting some beautiful small things can really play a role in adding to the icing on the cake. However, there are various types of decorations with different styles. For example, hanging pictures can be classical, abstract, with figures and landscapes. The same is true for decorations, such as feng shui decorations, antique collections, abstract handicrafts, etc.
Some Baozi felt that the decorations were too small to affect the overall style, so they bought a lot of wine cabinets, TV cabinets, bookcases and so on. They put them everywhere, or followed the trend. They bought a lot of online celebrity products with no characteristics on the Internet, which seemed to have no characteristics.
Too much is too little. For such things as decorations, one should still consider the unity of style and overall style. One is that exquisite decorations do not need too many, and you can choose a few different ones as decorations.
If you have a collection hobby, such as blind box dolls and handmade dolls, such small ornaments can be displayed in one area, or they will be very messy.
I have been to the homes of some second-hand house tenants who are ready to sell. I have seen many houses that have been newly renovated for a short time, but the furniture inside is mixed with new and old furniture. For example, there is a large old and black cabinet next to the TV cabinet in a family where other homes are light colored. It feels so ugly. At first sight, it was pulled from my hometown.
Another one directly placed a whole set of old style wooden sofa popular in the 1990s, which was full of "paternity" and a sense of dilapidation. To tell the truth, with such old furniture "supporting the scene", the house may be difficult to sell.
If the old ones don't go and the new ones don't come, the new home will have a new look. The best way to deal with outdated old objects is to dispose of them. Besides, the current home is not very expensive. You can buy beautiful sofas and cabinets for thousands of yuan. Why leave these "heirlooms" at home?
Of course, the parting is not aimed at the untimely old furniture, but also at the treasure who likes to buy, regardless of whether it is practical or not. For example, put a lot of carpets and floor mats at home, buy a lot of impractical small household appliances, place a lot of tableware and tea sets everywhere, and make a good room like a grocery store.
Of course, if you like the feeling of being full everywhere, it is understandable. But if you want to make your home beautiful, tidy and generous, you should never follow the online people who are addicted to "Taobao".
Soft decoration is the last step of the decoration process, and also the key step of the whole home decoration sublimation. In order to enable everyone to have a perfect home, remind everyone to do a good job in budgeting and strategy before soft decoration shopping, and try to avoid the pitfalls mentioned above.
