Xiaobai learns to decorate and design his warm home.

After buying a new house, do you often imagine what your new home will be like in your mind? What style is the living room decorated in? What kind of bed and wardrobe should I buy for my bedroom?

Many people hope that their new home decoration can be as good as the design in the magazine, and the high-end atmosphere is up to grade.

However, each new house has different huxing, different area and different location. If you don't know anything about decoration, give it to the decoration company. In the end, it is very likely that I spent a lot of money that I shouldn't have spent, and I didn't decorate the style I wanted.

"Doing Three Things Well in Decoration is Enough" summarizes the tedious decoration work into three parts: room layout, housing system and decoration style, and explains how to decorate your new home into what you like by reasonably arranging these three parts.

Wang Yilong, the author of this book, graduated from the famous "Old Eight Schools" in China. He traveled all over the world on five continents and four oceans, looking for the true meaning of architecture and feeling the true beauty of living.

He summed up his accumulated knowledge, experience and ideas in the process of building and decoration for more than ten years into a book, so he wrote this book "Three things are enough to do well in decoration".

This book mainly focuses on three aspects: spatial layout, housing system and decoration style. After reading this book, Xiao Bai can also learn how to choose the decoration style that suits him, how to decorate each room, and how to configure the water, electricity, lighting and heating of the new house.

Next, let's walk into this book and learn how to design the porch and living room space, and how to decorate our new home into a modern and simple style.

1. Small entrance, beautiful and practical.

The author believes that "the house, as a carrier of living, provides people with not only shelter from the wind and rain, but also emotional and material sustenance."

I am convinced that after buying a new house, we all look forward to the warm moment when the family eats, plays games, watches movies, reads and studies in their favorite house.

When we decorate a new house, we will first consider how to design the porch space. The so-called porch is a place where many people put shoe cabinets at the door and set clothes hooks on the wall. This is the most frequently used place in the home, and it is also the place to directly show the taste of the home.

When arranging the spatial layout of the entrance, we can imagine first: when we open the door at home, the first thing to do is to put the key in one place and then change shoes. I will also take off my coat and hang it on the hanger, and put down my bag and keys. If it rains, put away your umbrella when you come in. ...

When we go out, we need to check our appearance, so we need to put a mirror at the entrance ... There are many things to put in the porch, but there is not much space, so we should plan the spatial layout of the porch.

The cases provided by the author include the porch design of ultra-thin shoe cabinets with integral mirrors and the square porch of American style, all of which are simple, beautiful and practical.

In the five-star Shangri-La Hotel, the entrance side of the room is designed with a wardrobe, a low shoe cabinet, a hanging rod and a wooden cabinet combined with a locker, while the opposite wall will be equipped with a mirror the size of a whole wall, with a spacious, clean and beautiful view.

We can learn from some designs we have seen and apply them to decorate our new house.

This requires us to collect more renderings, observe more buildings we have been to, inspire and design our favorite porch layout.

2. Exquisite living room, master's taste

The only place where the house can be decorated is the living room, because we think the living room is the facade of outsiders. When guests come, we usually receive them in the living room, and the decoration of the living room reflects the taste of the host.

The author thinks that "the hall designed for guests is flashy." And a really good living room should be a hall built for yourself.

Acquaintances, family communication, spare time and children's play will be held in the living room.

Entertaining guests is only a small part of the function of the living room. Guests don't come often, and most of the time they are used by their families. Therefore, we should design our own living room for ourselves and our families.

The living room is a place to show the master's taste. If there are many books in the living room, then we know that the owner's hobby is reading.

If there is a high-grade stereo in the living room, then we know that the owner's hobby is music.

If there are many tea sets and antiques in the living room, we will know that the host is a lover of tea ceremony and antiques. ...

At present, the living room layout of many families is a wall with a TV and a row of sofas in front of the opposite wall. The living room is used to watch TV.

In fact, this layout makes the living room look impersonal. We just sit together and watch TV, but we don't talk about it, which brings us closer. This kind of companionship is just sitting next to it, and it can't enhance feelings.

In the book, the author provides us with some cases of living room layout, including sitting sofa layout, living room for music lovers and living room for study with warm style. ...

The author advocates that the living room design should be full of human touch, warm and tasteful. After all, "home is the warmest harbor". The correct design idea of living room should be the combination of small sofa and wall hobby.

I really like a living room design case provided in the book. There is a bookshelf with a whole wall in the living room. There is a long table in front of the bookshelf, which can hold three computers, which is convenient for adults and children to study together.

Sitting around the sofa, there is a small round table in the middle with a green vase on it, which is very warm. When the guests came, everyone sat around the small round table, drinking tea and chatting, which was very pleasant.

3. Decoration style, simple and modern

Speaking of decoration, the first thing to consider is what style of decoration. There are European, Jane European, American, Japanese, Chinese, Southeast Asian, Mediterranean and other styles on the market now, and these styles have their own advantages and disadvantages. The author thinks that the modern minimalist style is most suitable for the current aesthetics.

In fact, the decoration style depends on the owner's hobbies. Some people like the elegance of classical European style; Some people like traditional mahogany furniture in China; Some people like the simplicity and simplicity of Japanese style ... everyone has different preferences and different choices.

The modern minimalist style recommended by the author requires modern main materials, modern furniture and modern interior decoration.

Let every detail in the home be fashionable, exquisite and elegant, and the whole home looks exquisite and tasteful.

So how do we make the selected decoration materials modern enough? The author points out that we should pay attention to two points: abandoning small moves and emphasizing design sense.

Many products in the decoration market will have some "small decorations" and "small plots", such as small carvings on door handles and patterns on bathroom tiles ... These small details actually destroy the overall style of the new house.

In addition, the sense of design and art should be emphasized in the selection of materials. There are more artistic things at home, and the character and style will naturally improve. Therefore, the choice of furniture and decorations is particularly important.

Simple modern furniture refers to aesthetic furniture designed by modern designers without too much carving.

Just like buying clothes, if you don't know how to match clothes, experienced people generally suggest buying basic clothes. Because, the basic clothes look very pleasing to the eye.

The same is true of buying furniture. If you don't know what kind of furniture to buy, buy basic furniture. The color can be black, white, gray, brown and beige, and the simpler the shape, the better.

The characteristic of basic furniture is that although every single item is ugly, the overall collocation will make the overall effect of the home more prominent after all the furniture enters the home.

The decoration of the new house should be well designed, such as lights, vases, art paintings, etc.

In addition, when we buy daily necessities, we should replace the rustic packaging we bought with a sense of design. In this way, the overall style of the home will be exquisite, warm and tasteful.

Small porch, integrating storage and beauty; Exquisite living room, anti-customer-oriented, built for yourself; Modern minimalist style, simple and exquisite, warm and comfortable.

"It is enough to do three things well in decoration" teaches us to understand modern aesthetics, lets us choose the one that suits us from a variety of decoration styles, and helps us create our own new aesthetics of home life.
