Many owners will encounter this situation when renovating a new house. It is obvious that the hard decoration is planned to be completed for about 100,000 yuan. Even if they intend to control the cost, it ends up costing nearly 200,000 yuan in the end.
I think this situation is nothing more than the following two points: 1. Frequent changes in local style effects, exceeding the budget; 2. Encountering the price trap of the decoration company, you have to spend more.
In fact, in the hard installation process, you can achieve unexpected effects by spending a small amount of money, mainly focusing on the following four places. The price is not expensive, understand it clearly and don’t encounter decoration assassins.
first: curtain box is really practical.
Along the top of the wall, make a curtain box about 200mm high at the window, which can just hide the top of the curtain. Compared with traditional Roman rod curtains, they are a hundred times more beautiful and practical, and also effectively solve the problem of light leakage. What needs to be paid attention to is the width of the curtain box. For general double-layer curtains, the width needs to be about 150mm. If it is electric curtain , the width needs to be about 250mm.
curtain box does not have much technical content. The material is nothing more than wood board + gypsum board, which saves on materials. The price is cheap, a set of curtain boxes with materials is about 200 yuan.
Second: The double eyelid ceiling is really fragrant.
As an "Internet celebrity decoration" style, the double eyelid style is very popular and very successful at the moment. The double eyelid shape can not only make the indoor space more layered, but also make cleaning later very convenient. If you want double eyelids to be effective, the size ratio is very important. The height is generally 200mm, and the difference between the first layer and the second layer is 30mm. Light slots can be installed on the sides to make the space more atmospheric.
The cost of double eyelid surgery is also very cheap, not much different from the price of laying plaster lines.
Third: Make a small suspended ceiling for the wardrobe.
There are many benefits to the small suspended ceiling of the wardrobe. It not only ensures the overall proportion of the cabinet is coordinated, but also ensures that the top plaster line shape connection is complete. There is no special technical difficulty, and it facilitates the laying of plaster lines. The cost of labor and materials is about 100 yuan per square meter.
Fourth: Do not make embedded skirting.
The biggest function of skirting board is to prevent the wall surface from being damaged or stained. Don’t listen to the scammers and the so-called “Internet celebrity design” to mislead you into choosing embedded skirting board. Not only is the workmanship complicated, but the materials are also expensive. The installed effect is no different from traditional skirting.
choose bamboo skirting or very narrow skirting. The color and style match the door cover. The workmanship is simple. One meter of the material is only about 15 yuan. quietly tells you that the price of materials for bamboo and wood baseboards is relatively high, and "assassins" often appear. You can compare the price of materials quoted by the merchant with the labor price of the materials you choose and ask about it. The difference is at least a thousand yuan less!
Regarding the above four points, friends must be firm in their own ideas when decorating, and do not indulge in "Internet celebrity design". I don't know how many "assassins" there will be in it. Nowadays, the emphasis on decoration is "light on hard decoration, emphasis on soft furnishings". I suggest that you must plan your hard decoration budget reasonably in the early stage, and keep all the money on soft decoration accessories that improve the quality of life and experience. After all, the house is for living, not for living. It’s just for a little fanfare, what do you think?
