How do Japanese tidy up their homes, put things in order and make their homes simple and refreshing?

Anyone who has traveled to Japan knows that the streets and alleys in Japan are generally clean and tidy. Even in some areas of Japan, there are no garbage bins at home, but they are placed in a unified garbage disposal site, and the items at home are very orderly and simple. How did they do it?

First of all, Japanese families have a subtle influence, that is, women at home will be better at tidying up. Most places in Japan are relatively small, so the use of space is particularly important. There are generally several principles.

The first is classified storage. Japanese people really like to classify things, such as plates, dishes and ingredients, and put them in different containers, usually safety boxes and glass bottles. Many of the compartments and classified things we saw on Taobao are common in Japanese home storage, which looks very simple. Because of the small space, Japanese furniture has storage functions, such as storage stools and storage mats. Japanese furniture often has the function of multi-purpose, and in color matching, the Japanese will choose the same color or simple but elegant color for interval storage, which will look cleaner and fresher.

Articles are always used in classified storage. Generally, Japanese people will put things back where they were taken, which not only ensures that things will not be littered and placed in an orderly manner, but also avoids the confusion caused by rummaging through the boxes when things cannot be found. When dealing with old things, the Japanese will be more decisive in home storage, and will be clear about their needs, throw away things that will not be used in time, and make the home look more exquisite and clean.
