Today I will share a home case.

This is a small house in Siloam Springs, Arkansas, USA, although it is only 55 square meters, it is very cosy and comfortable.

This is the home of a young couple, Jesse and Harp. They had long taken a fancy to this house, but the owner at that time did not plan to sell it, and after a few years, they got their wish and bought the house they wanted.

After their renovation, the house has a new look, and every detail reveals the taste and passion of the couple.

Let's take a look at what their transformation secrets are.

PART 01 CHOOSE BROWN TONES

When you enter this house, the first thing that catches your eye is the warm atmosphere of brown tones. Whether it's furniture, carpets, wall decorations, ornaments, etc., all shades of brown are woven into a warm and harmonious space.

Brown belongs to the earth color system, which will be reminiscent of earth, earth, and give people a natural, warm, and rustic feeling.

This color also fits naturally with the retro style, often adding a strong retro touch to the interior design.

In this living room, Harp uses a variety of shades of brown to create a warm and harmonious space.

From the dark brown of solid wood furniture to the coffee tones of carpets, to the light brown of rattan furniture and the orange brown of sofas, the combination of these colors not only gives consistency and hierarchy to the living room, but also visually enhances the comfort of living and creates a warm and pleasant environment.

PART 02 FOCUS ON WALL DECORATION

Jesse and Harp pay special attention to wall decoration, in addition to various vintage decorative paintings, handmade products, greenery, etc., which they use to decorate the walls.

The TV backdrop has become a showcase for their art collection, with paintings of different styles from all over the world hanging on the wall, telling different stories.

In the corner of the living room, the shelves become a small exhibition space, and the pothos hanging from the roof adds life and vitality to the interior.

The adjacent corner is arranged as a cosy office area, and in addition to hanging pictures, a unique display shelf is installed on the wall, filled with their cherished small objects, making the wall also full of stories and emotions.

Even the arch leading to the restaurant has been decorated with ingenuity, simulating the combination of maple leaf and rattan handicrafts, making the whole arch artistic.

Harp still retains her father's hand-painted decorative painting, which now hangs on the wall of the entrance door, becoming a warm memento of the family and a testament to the family's heritage and affection.

On the walls of the bedroom, Jesse and Harp have taken an ingenious approach to showcasing the children's clothes and toys. Using hooks and small wooden frames, they created a wall of childhood memories that was both functional and fun.

Here, children's coats, sweaters, and trousers are hung on conspicuous hooks for everyday wear, while toys, picture books, and handicrafts are arranged in an orderly manner on small wooden shelves.

PART 03 Personalized decorative ornaments

Jesse and Harp love to collect all kinds of interesting decorative ornaments. They bought a delicate sideboard for some interesting dolls, delicate wrought iron, wood carvings of various shapes, and so on.

A retro gramophone on the TV stand, contrasted with a pot of lush greenery, breathes infinite life into a corner of the home.

The ceramic cups in the kitchen come in different shapes, each of which they carefully selected and bought at the market. Not only are these cups easy to use on a day-to-day basis, but their variety of shapes also adds a touch of color to the kitchen space.

In addition, they will also choose some tableware that looks simple but has a texture, and cleverly place them on the display shelves, which is not only convenient for daily use, but also has the effect of beautifying the space.

Even the bathroom, they will decorate it carefully, and the portraits and sculptures of dogs in the corner of the home show their deep affection and warmth for home.

The above is today's sharing, if you want to make a small space into a comfortable, warm and retro residence, you may wish to refer to the above 3 points, with a unified color as the keynote, carefully carve every inch of the wall space, and then embellished with unique ornaments, so that every corner exudes poetry and home warmth.
