In this fast-paced urban life, we can always hear or see various stories about the house. Some are warm and touching, while others are extremely inspirational. And today, I want to tell the story of a girl, a girl who has a world of her own at the age of thirty. Her name is Lisa, and her story is unusual. Thirty years old is a number that carries countless expectations and pressures. For many people, this age means settlement and stability, but Lisa has chosen a different path. She was not in a hurry to find the other half of her life, but put all her love and energy into chasing her dreams. After years of hard work, Lisa finally bought her first house at the age of 30, as a single person. This is not only a place to live, but also a strong statement of her self-reliance and independence. The house is located in a corner of the bustling city, and although the floors are not high, this does not affect Lisa's joy and pride.
Last year, she started her renovation journey, stumbling along the way, and now she can enjoy her own little world while sitting in her own hand-designed home. During the renovation process, what she particularly liked was the open-air balcony. This balcony, for her, is not only a place to drink coffee and read a book, but also a runway for dreams to take off. Here, she can let go of the tiredness of the day and feel the beauty of life just by sitting quietly. The house doesn't have an entryway, which can be a problem for a lot of people. But Lisa deftly solves this dilemma. She custom-made a partition shoe cabinet that not only blocks the view from rushing into the room, but also makes full use of the space to meet the storage needs. The hollow carved decoration on the cabinet adds beauty while being practical. A few steps ahead is the restaurant area. It's a small space, but it's just right. A small square dining table with two dining chairs of different colors is simple but warm. The design of the wine cabinet on the wall subtly expands the storage space, showing her delicate and meticulous approach to home.
The kitchen is located next to the dining room and is small but functional. Her custom-made "L" shaped cabinets make effective use of every inch of kitchen space, and even in this small space, you can make delicious food with both color and flavor. The colour palette of grey and blue is chosen throughout the home, which is both modern and comfortable. The configuration of the square chandelier, light strip and downlight on the top surface makes the whole area well-lit, warm and bright. When I first saw Lisa's new home, I was intrigued. This is not just due to the fact that her décor style is pleasing to the eye, but also because it is all the result of her own efforts. Her story made me think deeply that maybe there is no set template for success, no having to rely on another person, or even a set timeline. Lisa proves that one can have a wonderful life and a warm home. She told us with her own actions: no matter age, whether you are single or not, as long as you have dreams and pursuits, then your life can be what you want.
And her story is not only a story about a house, but also a story about independence and chasing dreams. Therefore, no matter what stage of life you are in now, no matter what difficulties you are facing, don't give up pursuing the small world in your heart, the home of your dreams. Just like Lisa, use your hands, heart, and action to create your own wonderful! In the busy and compact urban life, having a favorite residence is undoubtedly the happiness that many people dream of. Imagine a space with simple décor yet sophistication, a haven where you can find a moment of peace in the hustle and bustle of the world. Today, let's walk into such a home together and feel its comfort and comfort. As soon as I opened the door, I saw a panoramic view of the living room. In the TV wall area, the designer did not adopt complicated shapes, but chose to retain the simplicity of the original wall. This design not only makes the space look more open, but also eliminates the oppressive feeling of excessive decoration.
The TV hangs on the wall and is highly accurate and ergonomically designed, ensuring that you can enjoy the most comfortable viewing angle while sitting on the sofa. Diverting your gaze, you can see the use of the TV countertop. There is no clutter here, just a few carefully selected decorations, which are simple and functional. The greenery in the corner seems to inject vitality and vitality into this space. When I go home every day and see those green plants, my tired heart is soothed. Off the living room is a well-planned dining and kitchen area. There's a clever design here – there's a refrigerator in just the right place behind the partition shoe cabinet. This layout avoids placing the refrigerator in a fume-filled environment, and also makes it easier to access ingredients. Step out onto the balcony, which has been cleverly transformed into a living area by the owner. A washing machine is fitted aside, next to which is a practical laundry cabinet. At the top of the balcony, the addition of wall cabinets greatly improves the storage space. Washing your clothes here, whether by hand or machine, is much easier.
What's even more refreshing is the oversized open-air balcony. Here, you can enjoy the outdoors, plant greenery, and even gather with friends and family on days when the sun is not shining. Above the open-air balcony, a transparent glass canopy is installed, which can not only block the rain, but also not hinder the lighting, which is both practical and beautiful. Standing here, you will find that whether it is the sun during the day or the starry sky at night, it has become a unique scenery of home. Next, we move on to the master bedroom. Here, the bay window is preserved, and the bay window mat makes people sit on it and don't want to leave. The dresser next to the bedside is just the right size, making the hostess's daily beauty ritual more convenient. Despite the small space, the warm and cozy atmosphere is fully reflected here. What about the second bedroom? Here, the owner opted for custom-made tatami mats. Tatami mats not only make efficient use of space, but also provide plenty of storage space. The wood-colored cabinet with white doors looks particularly fresh.
The blue hue of the curtains complements the overall style, which is both simple and has a good shading function. Finally, we came to the bathroom. There is a standard separation of wet and dry, so even if the water splashes during the shower, it will not affect the use of other areas. Convenient and clean, every detail shows the owner's care in this small space. In such a home, every corner reveals comfort and practicality, and each design is full of the owner's pursuit of quality of life. It is not only a pile of bricks and tiles, but also a sustenance of emotions and memories. Isn't that the reason why we strive for happiness to feel happiness every day here? You know what? Not long ago, I finally got the keys to my first new house, and the excitement in my heart is beyond words. At the age of 30, I finally have my own little world, and every detail is carefully selected by myself. Until one day, one of the small changes made my new home glow with a different brilliance.
I remember it was a sunny afternoon, I was busy at home, and it occurred to me that the bathroom was always messy, and the toothpaste and toothbrush didn't fit well. I rummaged through the online decoration inspiration, and suddenly my eyes lit up and I saw an unusual storage artifact - a self-disinfecting toothpaste toothbrush storage box. This is no ordinary storage box, it can be hung on the wall, it does not take up space, and it has a built-in intelligent disinfection function. You can imagine how good I would feel when I woke up every morning and saw that the brushing tools were neatly laid out and shining with the fresh luster of the disinfectant! As soon as the goods arrived, I couldn't wait to pick up the tools and start the installation. Although it is said to be a house that I decorate, I am really a novice to decoration tools. After fiddling with it for a while, I hung the storage box on the wall securely, and the sense of accomplishment at that moment is estimated to not even be shared by people who have climbed Mount Everest. Once installed, I couldn't wait to get started.
I put the toothpaste and toothbrush in, put the transparent lid on, and saw the blue disinfection light on, everything was like high-tech in the movie, which made me feel like I was living in a future world. Every time my friends come to my house as a guest and see this gadget, they are all amazed, saying that my small home is decorated with style and taste. But that's just the tip of the iceberg in my new home. The highlight of the new house is the oversized open-air balcony. You know what a luxury it is to have your own little terrace in the city. I laid wooden floors on it, set up a few chairs and a coffee table, and sat on the balcony in the spring season, sipping tea while looking at the city skyline. As for the decoration of the whole space, I put a lot of effort into it. The walls are warm off-white, and the furniture is mostly in the Nordic minimalist style, each of which is both beautiful and practical. The layout of the whole room is based on the key words of "simplicity, comfort, and individuality". In addition, I also deliberately left a lot of wall space to hang my favorite paintings, or photo walls in the future.
I think that home is not about the size, but about the comfort and warmth that belongs to you. I want every corner to leave my footprints, and every detail to reflect my taste. Nowadays, I often receive compliments from friends and relatives that my new home is not as beautiful as it can be, and there will be people who come to "learn from me" and want to refer to my decoration style. Looking at their envious eyes, my heart was actually secretly happy. Finally, let's leave a little suspense for everyone. Are there any other surprising designs and ideas in this new home that I have poured most of my energy and emotions into? How has it played an integral role in my life? Stay tuned, maybe next time, I'll bring more stories about my new home.
