First and foremost, your home should be a place you like to be. That is, everything should be arranged in a way that is functional and pleasing to the eye. Certainly, you can see that most people would probably not be thrilled to live in a “Kahn” style house for the rest of their lives.
However, there is no longer any unanimity about how such a home should be furnished. There never will be. Because we are all different, and we all like different things and dislike different things.
However, there are five basic tips on how to arrange furniture
that make a house just right.
And what does that mean?
1) When furnishing a home, it is said that there is no way to avoid using natural materials. Wood, in particular, does us a great service, not only because it creates a warm atmosphere in our homes, but also because it is an environmentally friendly material. It is a gift from nature and a renewable resource. In addition to wood, long-lasting bamboo is an essential part of our homes.
2) Before throwing something away because it is old, worn out, out of fashion, etc., we should ask ourselves if it is still of any use. For many things can be repaired, and many things can be adapted for another purpose.
3) Use primarily furniture that is sustainably produced, i.e., eco-labeled. This way, one does not have to bother with pollutants, and the quality is guaranteed.
4) It is also desirable to adopt timeless designs. This is not only with regard to furniture. Furthermore, equipping your home with items made from recycled materials is not only good for you, but also for Mother Nature.
5) Also, don\’t forget to take advantage of bazaars and swap exchanges. This is so that if something you no longer need is useful to someone else, you don\’t throw it away, and on the other hand, so that you can look around for something you don\’t have at home.
If we do the above, we will be satisfied, and so will the environment, and perhaps others. So why not do so? There is nothing actually complicated or esoteric about it.
