In Hong Kong, where every inch of land is valuable, many people do not desire spacious mansions, and a space of several dozen square meters is enough to meet their needs. Being able to stay with family and work hard is the most worthwhile thing to look forward to. In this issue, let us go into the home of a 40-year-old Hong Kong woman and take a look at her living space.



The usable area of ​​this house is 36 square meters. Although the area is not large, the hostess still designed it into three bedrooms, one living room, one bathroom and one kitchen. In the mainland, few people design such a small area like this, but it is very common in Hong Kong. Many people even struggle for decades to buy a house of more than 30 square meters. Although the decoration is not luxurious, the hostess still spent nearly 300,000 yuan.

living room



As a home designer, I have to say that this decoration style does look a bit shabby, and is often referred to as "rental housing" or "poor decoration" in the mainland. The walls and ceiling of the living room are very simple, with only one chandelier, and there is almost no other decoration in the space except for the custom storage cabinet and sofa.



Even the curtains are in the traditional Roman rod style. Track curtains or electric curtains have long been popular in the mainland. Although the decoration is simple, it can be seen that the hostess pursues quality of life. The leather sofa and massage chair are proof of this. Even if Hong Kong people live in small houses, they like to install bathtubs, and massage chairs seem to have become standard.



The TV background wall is undoubtedly the highlight of the living room, especially the design of the TV storage cabinet, which shows the mastery of storage. In a small space, storage cabinets are crucial. It is speculated that the custom storage cabinets and wardrobes accounted for a considerable part of the 300,000 yuan spent by the hostess on the decoration. One detail is: the glass cabinet on the right side of the TV cabinet is full of trophies and medals of the hostess and daughters.

Dining room



The dining room is actually part of the living room, and its highlight lies in the design of the cabinet. The sideboard and TV cabinet are in the same style, with reasonable and beautiful partitions. It can not only store shoes, stools, commonly used items and medicine boxes, but also adds a wine cabinet. This design is very worth learning from.

kitchen



The hostess designed another wall cabinet outside the kitchen to make full use of the space. This is a wise move, because the more cabinets there are after moving in, the tidier the home will be and the happier you will feel in life. A three-door refrigerator can be placed under the wall cabinet to meet the needs of a family of four.



The kitchen area is less than 3 square meters, but the layout is reasonable, with L-shaped wall cabinets and floor cabinets, which are very practical for storage. The double-layer wall cabinet on one side has an open bottom layer, which is convenient for placing bottles and cans and reducing the burden on the countertop.

bedroom



The master bedroom is not big, and there is almost no free space after putting a 1.5-meter-wide and 2-meter-long double bed. Although it seems crowded, basic sleeping needs can still be met.





Although the two daughters' small bedrooms are smaller than the master bedroom, as can be seen from the 1-meter-wide small beds, the cabinets are well designed and suitable for little girls to store things. What satisfies the hostess is that each bedroom has a window. In Hong Kong, a house with windows is a luxury. Compared with subdivided flats and cage houses, such conditions are really too happy.



The two daughters' small bedrooms share an air conditioner, which is very common in rental houses in the mainland. Not only the air conditioner, some owners even share the clothes drying rack (directly through the fake wall). As the heroine's husband said: In Hong Kong, it is already very good to have a place to live, it doesn't matter if you wear ordinary clothes, and you have to eat well to be healthy. Many netizens directly said: This idea is great~

bathroom



The bathroom is small, crowded, and not specially designed, but for some people at the bottom of society in Hong Kong, a private bathroom is a luxury, especially for those living in subdivided flats, who even need to share kitchens and bathrooms.
