The first second you get home, darkness swallows you up.
I fumbled for the switch and almost dropped the key.
At that moment, the warmth and sense of belonging were all fucking bullshit.
Just irritability, real irritability.
The entrance, which is as small as a palm, is actually a switch device in the home that can trigger emotions. No one will stay in this place for a long time, but your mood every day has been "adjusted" in this place in some way. It is the last place you look at before stepping out of the house, and the first place you look at after returning home. Therefore, don’t tell me about the style, features and atmosphere. The most critical core content of the entrance area design is only two words: it looks and feels comfortable, and it is convenient and easy to use. .
Today, I don’t want to talk about those flashy and superficial design concepts, but I want to carefully analyze the seven key details that are real and can determine success or failure. As long as these points are firmly grasped, it will be really difficult to use the entrance hall of your home.
Don't let the light betray your fatigue
Imagine working overtime until late at night, dragging your body that is about to fall apart and pushing the door open.
What greets you is a cold room and darkness that makes you unable to see your fingers.
Are you more tired?
Entrance lights are not just for lighting.
The moment you enter the door, its role is to allow you to smoothly switch from "outside mode" to "home mode", presenting a gentle scene in front of your eyes.
Don’t just install a pale ceiling light. There must be layers.
Install a sensor light on the ceiling of the entrance. It will light up once the door is opened. You no longer have to change your shoes in the dark, and you don’t need to free one hand to turn on the light when you are carrying items. This is the first embrace that technology has given you.
The middle and bottom of the shoe cabinet must be left empty, and light strips must be added.
You can find the keys and the knife used to open express delivery in the middle.
Put your usual shoes underneath, and you can put your feet in them accurately without bending down.
That ray of light shines on your shoes and also on your unguarded heart.
Liberating the waist means liberating happiness
The old-fashioned shoe cabinets from the past were simply anti-human designs.
Open the door, squat down, take your shoes, and stand up.
Open the door, squat down, put your shoes on, and stand up.
Change your heels and do a set of squats, your knees are protesting.
What a smart thing to do now.
Leave 15-20 centimeters empty at the bottom of the shoe cabinet .
When I came home, I rubbed my feet and my shoes were kicked in. When you step outside, you can hook it out by stretching your feet.
Leave a countertop in the middle of the cabinet, put your bag on it, throw the key away, and everything goes smoothly.
Don't underestimate this movement. This is a very rare feeling of smoothness in life. The body can achieve it by itself without using your brain.
Resistance to dirt is a compromise in life and wisdom
I know that many people are obsessed with the warmth of wooden floors and would like to have them throughout the house.
But for the entrance hall, I really advise you to lay tiles.
It’s not that I don’t love wood, I just love it so much that I can’t bear to let it suffer.
Think about it, the soles of the shoes you wear outside are stained with dust, mud, and even water.
On a rainy day, the wet umbrella is leaning against the entrance.
The place where the child's feet have just stepped through the puddle and stepped in with the first step.
Ceramic tiles are wear-resistant, durable, and easy to take care of . They can be cleaned with just a mop.
Don't compete with life. In the "battlefield" of the entrance, ceramic tiles are much more decent than wooden floors.
The row of "hands" on the wall catches your embarrassment
The first thing you do after entering the door is to take off all your "accessories".
Bag, where to hang it?
Jacket, where to throw it?
Hat, where to put it?
If there is no convenient place, a mountain of clothes will slowly grow on the sofa or dining chair.
There must be a row of hangers and hooks on the entrance wall, or simply a perforated board .
It's like many hands stretching out to steadily catch the moment of fatigue when you enter.
Hang up your bag, hang up your keys, take off your coat and hang it up.
With these things that fix your "home", your entrance will not be cluttered, and your heart will also not be cluttered.
Give the butt an explanation and give the old man some consideration
Before getting married and having children, I thought the shoe-changing stool was dispensable.
Isn’t it neat to change shoes while standing?
When my back is sore, when I am wearing a tight skirt or trousers and it is inconvenient to bend down, when I am holding the express delivery in my hand, when I am watching my parents tremblingly holding on to the wall to change their shoes, waiting.
You will realize that a stool is the most gentle organ in the entrance hall .
It doesn’t have to be big and luxurious, even if it’s just a small stool with storage function, or a board extending from the shoe cabinet.
Sit down and take your time changing your shoes.
This is a form of decency and a kindness to yourself.
The last confirmation, the confidence to go out
Before going out, stand in front of the mirror and take a look at yourself.
Is the collar turned up, is the lipstick applied evenly and unevenly, is there a feeling of getting out of bed on the face, is the mental state appropriate?
This is not just stinky, this is a kind of psychological construction .
Arrange your clothes as if you are putting on today's armor, then open the door and face the world.
If you don’t have room to hang a mirror on the wall, make the cabinet doors mirrored .
It doesn't take up much space, and it has the function of a full-length mirror out of thin air, killing two birds with one stone.
Give your eyes a pause, don't look through them at a glance
In some apartment types, once the door is opened, you can directly see the end of the living room or even the toilet.
This feeling of "seeing through" can make people psychologically insecure.
At this time, a partition is needed.
But never make a solid, blocked wall.
Choose hollow ones or glass ones.
Why?
Because light needs to pass through and air needs to circulate.
It seems to be there and not there, and it is hazy, which not only protects privacy, but also retains the breathing feeling of space. As soon as you step into the door, your eyes will have a place to fall, and the home will have a different feeling.
These points are nothing profound.
They are all words that come from the bottom of my heart and are summed up by opening and closing doors countless times, bending down and getting up.
They are like a silent housekeeper at home, quietly, but they arrange everything for you neatly and properly.
Next time open the door and feel it.
Whatever is comfortable is right.
