1. Keep the original structure and elements as much as possible. For example, wooden beams and stone walls can be used to increase the texture and characteristics of a room. Keeping old doors, windows and floor tiles can also add a lot of color to the house.
2. Improve infrastructure Many old rural houses lack infrastructure, such as electricity, running water and toilets. Improving these is one of the necessary steps in the regeneration of old houses.
3. Improve lighting and ventilation. Improving indoor lighting and ventilation requires a high budget, but it will bring good living experience to residents. You can replace larger windows, increase skylights and increase natural light.
4. Wall decoration can keep the original stone wall or bare brick wall as the wall, or brush natural and environmentally friendly wallpaper or paint.
Choosing suitable materials such as wood will make the atmosphere of the room warmer, but it is not easy to maintain. Ceramic tiles and cement walls have different tastes, but they are both sanitary and durable.
6. The popular Chinese decoration style is also very suitable for old houses in rural areas. Changing windows into Chinese-style folding fan windows, adopting bucket arch structure in eaves, laying sanitary bricks on the ground and weaving walls can inject new vitality into old houses.
In a word, it takes more details and patience to decorate old houses in rural areas, maintain their characteristics and improve facilities moderately, which will bring about a qualitative improvement in our lives.
