Although traditional decoration design can help reduce unnecessary risks, it also brings certain limitations, resulting in spaces that are too patterned to truly improve practicality and comfort.

Therefore, some seemingly "non-traditional" decoration design ideas may not only bring more surprises, but also greatly enhance our sense of well-being.

In this article, we'll share seven amazing design ideas that break the mold of thinking but greatly increase the comfort and practicality of living.

1. Vertical wall tiles

As we all know, the common specifications of wall tiles on the market are mainly 800*0mm and 0*0mm.

Traditionally, no matter which size of wall tile is chosen, the mason usually uses a "horizontal" approach to paving.

However, if you change your mindset and adopt a "vertical" paving method, the whole effect will be very different.

The former is bland, while the latter is more three-dimensional and visually elevates the height of the room. If the wall-to-floor jointing is further realized, it can also strengthen the overall sense of space.

Netizen @ Firefly Hook who doesn't like to talk said:

The most regrettable decoration decision is to stick wall tiles vertically, the whole space looks more atmospheric, and I must praise my mason master.

Second, the door suction is installed to the top

When installing a wooden door at home, if there are no special instructions, the master usually installs the door suctor at the bottom.

There are no complicated technical requirements to do so, and it doesn't seem wrong to do so in most households.

But in fact, after moving in, you will find two problems: one is the inconvenience of daily mopping, and the other is that the door suction is easy to accumulate dust and the magnetic is weakened.

Therefore, it is better to change the installation position and install the door suction on top of the wooden door, so that the above problems can be avoided.

Netizens @cream圓子 shared:

Since I installed the door suction on it, I found that it can also hang clothes and store it, which is really witty.

3. The main bathroom was changed to a laundry room

Many homes now include two bathrooms, which provides more convenience, but when there are not many family members, it can be a bit wasteful to have two bathrooms.

Many people struggle with whether to keep two bathrooms when renovating, or worry that a single bathroom may not be enough in the future.

In fact, we can consider this from another angle: on the basis of retaining the function of the main bathroom, if the bathroom area is smaller, the shower area can be eliminated and replaced with a laundry room.

Although the bathing function is sacrificed, it is exchanged for the best lighting and view, and the best balcony space is used without affecting daily life at all.

Netizen @爱食的熊熊 said:

A family of three doesn't really need two shower areas, wouldn't it be more fragrant to set up the laundry room in the master bathroom and then transform the balcony into a garden?

In addition, the bath bomb in the main bathroom also has a drying function, so even if you don't use the dryer, your clothes won't smell when you hang here, which is very practical.

Fourth, the cloakroom does not have to be independent

For families with a larger master bedroom, many people may choose to design a separate cloakroom to increase storage space.

However, people often fall into the misconception that the cloakroom should be located in a separate area inside the master bedroom.

In fact, the core function of the cloakroom is storage, and insisting on a separate cloakroom in the master bedroom may not be practical due to space constraints.

Therefore, we should think outside the box and explore new ways of designing. For example:

A set of bedside tables at the foot of the bed in the master bedroom can not only increase the storage space, but also avoid making the master bedroom look crowded, and the storage function of this design is not inferior to that of a small cloakroom.

The use of corridor space to design a built-in wardrobe not only reduces the sense of narrowness of the corridor, but also improves the overall functionality.

Or transform the idle guest room into a multi-functional room integrating a cloakroom and a study, which can not only work and study but also store clothes, which greatly increases the practicality.

5. Set up a niche at the head of the bed

Bedside tables are almost standard furniture in the bedroom, but if the bedroom has a bed and a set of wardrobes, there is not enough space for the bedside tables.

What can we do about this situation?

In fact, the solution is very simple, that is, to solve the problem of placing bedside tables by using the design of bedside half wall + alcove + backless bed.

In addition, for smaller bedrooms, this design can make the space appear more open.

If you don't like the design of the half-wall of the bedside, you can also use part of the wardrobe space to design a pull-out compartment to replace the function of the bedside table.

Sixth, the aisle arch angle treatment

The entrances in the home, such as the aisle, balcony door opening, etc., are generally wrapped with door covers or corner protectors to prevent collision injuries in daily life.

Whether it is a door sleeve or a corner protector, the appearance may appear a little abrupt and lack a sense of simplicity, and the cost is at least thousands of yuan.

So, we can try to approach these details in a different way of thinking. For example, adding a small half-arc modification treatment to the pass makes it more rounded and textured, and also avoids the discomfort caused by sharp corners. The construction process is also not complicated.

Finished foam corners and arc corner protectors are available on the market, and master oilers are usually able to complete this kind of construction.

7. Add a rib frame to the tatami mat

There is a lot of controversy about the use of tatami mats. On the one hand, it is considered an "artifact" of small spaces; On the other hand, there are many shortcomings, such as difficult storage, poor ventilation, and easy to get damp and mildew.

In fact, these problems can be solved by changing the design thinking, provided that your home really needs to use tatami mats as beds. Otherwise, there is no need to design tatami mats.

Solutions include adding slatted bed slats to tatami mats to improve ventilation and humidity, and designing oversized drawers on the side to solve storage problems.

Summary: That's all for this issue.

Ultimately, the design of a new home should be tailored to the actual needs of the homeowner. Only the best design is the one that suits you. I hope you can refer to these ideas, but don't blindly follow the trend.
