Owner's story
"I used to live in meilan lake, that is, the subway line 7 goes to the end, and everyone knows the distance. My wife thought it was too far away from her parents, and at that time she was also working in the city, so the traffic was very inconvenient. So we decided to sell the house in meilan lake and choose Yixian Road in Baoshan, which is also convenient for our parents to take care of each other in the future.
My wife gets off work early now and will be home around two o'clock in the afternoon. And I am in the car wash industry, but my working hours are just from the afternoon until the early hours of the morning. In this way, my wife will feel lonely when she is alone at home, so we came up with the idea of raising small animals. At first, it was Schnauzer's barking, and then it was the puppet cat's sister. Once it was raised, it couldn't be stopped. Now it has three cats and a dog. Therefore, making people and small animals live comfortably is the biggest demand of my decoration.
when it comes to decorating together, there will always be differences. But I am "noisy" but my wife, so I often listen to her in the end, haha ~ ~ ~ I have food to eat if I listen to my wife. " (Applause here)
Apartment: two bedrooms and one living room
Area: 86㎡
Location: Yixian Road, Shanghai
House plan before renovation
House plan after renovation
Before renovation, I often look at renovation cases on some platforms to find my own inspiration. Coincidentally, We like simple design, so the designer recommended Nordic simple style, and we decided the general direction of decoration in one afternoon.
living room
The layout of the living room is actually not complicated. It is still a three-piece suit of Nordic style: coffee table, fabric sofa and carpet. Next to it, put red and green plants on the internet to decorate it. It seems that there is nothing special. But I really like the design of the main light in the living room, which makes the space more open. Using spotlights for lighting, the light source is enough. In particular, it is the three-story cat apartment next to the sofa. This is my masterpiece! I especially saw the style and structure on the internet, and dragged my friend to make it specially, which cost 3 thousand yuan! How's that? My three cat owners, the treatment of cats is not bad!
The TV background wall seems to be simple without any decoration, but it leaves me more room to expand. You will find that there is not much wall decoration in my home. Why? Because I want to install some things that cats like to use later. There is also a special introduction, that is, this little paradise for cats next to the TV. As soon as the dog barks, it will run after the cat, and there will be a "cat-dog fight" at home, which makes the cat feel bad, so this cat rack is specially installed, and the cat also likes to hide in a small space.
Dining room
The dining room is arranged between the aisle of the kitchen and the living room. In fact, it seems to be relatively narrow here, but there is enough room for the whole family to eat. On the other side is the floor-to-ceiling window, which just communicates with the balcony at the other end, and the north and south are transparent! A pattern that Shanghai Ningdu prefers. See the stairs next to it? This is the top floor of my heart. When I bought this house, a large part of the reason was because of this rooftop.
Rooftop
I'm a native of Shanghai, so I like climbing stairs. The sixth floor is a little high for many people, but it's a dream for me. Plus the sixth floor of this house, the rooftop of the top floor is attached. There is a small house on the roof, which we just intend to use for washing and drying, so we transformed it into a laundry room. Go up the stairs here, and that's the rooftop!
In this way, we don't have to dry clothes in our own house, and we can also let the dogs run away. That's good!
Kitchen
My wife cooks a lot at home at ordinary times. She likes to cook by herself, and I am responsible for washing dishes. The kitchen area itself is not big, about four or five square meters, which is a standard small kitchen. As far as the two of us are concerned, the L-shaped cooking table is enough. There are small square bricks on the wall. I don't know why, I always feel that this small brick is very family life, exquisite and not too eye-catching.
The refrigerator is just put down in the corner of the kitchen, and the apron is hung on the refrigerator door, which is also very convenient to use.
The master bedroom
The most important thing in the bedroom is comfort. The warm wooden furniture makes us feel very intimate. The colors of the designers always match well, and almost all the furniture is selected by them. Walnut-colored bedside tables, gray-green curtains and gray-yellow pillows are all just right, and the visual effects are relatively harmonious.
Second bedroom
We want more storage space, so we have a tatami room, where we can put a lot of things. Originally, the designer recommended a half tatami room, half tatami room and half study room, taking into account the study and sleeping, but later I suggested making tatami for the whole house, because it can hold a lot of things. Secondly, I put the desk area on the balcony, which is the best place for lighting in the whole house.
"Sister" sometimes likes to stay in this room, lying on the tatami and basking in the sun, while my wife likes to lean on the couch and read books, or have afternoon tea with her little sister here. It's really pleasant ~ ~
This porch table at the entrance of the bathroom was originally placed in the living room, which is now the location of herding cats apartment. Tianma has done this very well, and many places can allow me to adjust according to my needs later, rather than being fixed.
The original apartment is basically good, except for one thing: the toilet door and the room door are hedged, which is unfavorable in geomantic omen, so the designer made adjustments, but other patterns did not move.
Changhong Glass is matched with folding doors with black frames, and I especially like this "online celebrity" collocation. It feels very atmospheric and exquisite. But considering the privacy, I feel that the glass will still be a little transparent. I specially installed a honeycomb curtain on the upper part of the door, so just pull it down when I go to the toilet!
Balcony
Most of the work I'm doing now needs to be done through the Internet, so I made part of the balcony into an office area. The glass window of the north balcony is one of my most satisfactory designs. Originally, I wanted to achieve full landing, but later, because of the high floor height, we split in two, but increased lighting. There is a train passing by the neighborhood, so we don't have to move the window, but push the window, so the sound insulation effect will be better. The window is made of double glass, which is not only sound insulation but also heat preservation.
Tell me about this family.
Dogs' paws will scratch the floor and furniture, and the floor heating is also done below, so we specially chose a high-hardness floor when shopping. In addition, we didn't make any ceiling, because we had to put some supplies for small animals, and we didn't want the floors to be short. It turned out that it was true. Later, I made a three-story cat apartment, and my home space was completely unaffected. I am very grateful to the designers for taking these details into account in advance, so that we hardly have to worry about them.
