Word-of-mouth case - Makeland Design
Fay, the homeowner, is a woman who combines beauty and talent
She's petite, but knows how to live and enjoy life
"The most important thing she wanted for the house was to be able to live in the city," she said.
"Everything is about comfort"
The two-bedroom apartment was originally furnished with a hardcover unit.
For example, Fay wanted a bathtub
But the bathroom was really small, and the layout was basically set
It was a good thing that we could borrow the bathtub.
Designing in a small home is really a matter of inches!

Project location: Liwan District, Guangzhou
Project style: Scandinavian retro
Project style: Scandinavian retro
Area: 87 square meters
Main Project: Makeland Space Design
Foyer Foyer shoe cupboard to do to the top, will not waste space, handy The area to put things and hang clothes and bags is also convenient for homeowners to use. Put slippers shoes stool place, also a well-considered. The owners found in the actual use, this design is really very humane.
As with the kitchen, the entrance with light gray marble , with white seams, very good-looking and very well taken care of, is a very high-level and low-key color scheme.
Living room Blue color velvet sofa but the living room of the "value of the bear", the original green is very retro, with other furniture with the metal elements. The green color is already very retro, and with the metal elements in other furniture, it looks more advanced. This is a single product especially recommended by the designer.
The wall paintings on the back wall of the sofa echo the overall retro style of the living room, and the size is also pre-planned, staggered.
▲White single reading sofa and large sofa complement each other, this is the owner's family often stay in the afternoon leisure time. A cup of coffee, a book, and the warmth and coziness of the sunshine are just a few of the things you can do to make your life easier!
▲ The overall lighting in the living room is very good, and the soft furnishings such as carpets and other options are light gray, which highlights the brightness and transparency of the entire space. For a small home, the color scheme should never make the space feel depressing.
Dining room This wall of the dining room is the focus of the transformation, the original owners wanted to customize a row of bookshelves, but the designers felt that it would bring a sense of depression. Therefore, the owner finally chose to place a finished bookshelf against the wall, and the bookshelf is also the first piece of furniture she selected, Fay said she needed a large capacity, practical and display space, but also not depressing bookshelf.
▲ dining cabinet also took the owners a lot of thought. fay long rainbow glass love, and finally picked this long rainbow glass also with drawers dining cabinet. The width of one meter and a half is good, the wood is also thicker, there is a kind of solid fireworks.
▲ Designer advice, sideboard and bookshelf best in a brand purchase , to avoid color differences. But Fay didn't end up picking one. The good thing is that the color difference between the two is not very big, and overall it's quite harmonious.
Kitchen The kitchen two non-bearing walls knocked down, made an island , into an open kitchen. The kitchen is paved with the popular small white tiles, which is very delicate and refreshing. The choice of floor tiles and seams, and the entrance is the same.
The kitchen countertop is not large, in addition to the sink and gas stove, only a small piece of place to cut vegetables, so the island can also be done at the same time as the operating table and dining table. And the owners of the dishwasher demand is higher than the disinfection cabinet, decisively chose the embedded. The lower part of the island table has a single door and a double door of its own design. Together with the large drawers and the upper row of hanging cabinets, the storage capacity is great.
Bedroom The master bedroom features a single blue backdrop with white feather lights, giving a sense of heartfelt pleasure and uncommon taste.
▲The closet style chosen for the master bedroom and the second bedroom is the same, starting from the height of the owner's height to consider the height of the hanging rod, taking into account the long clothes and short clothes require different space, but also made three pull-out drawers.
The style of the bed is very simple, but the metal headrest is very elegant and delicate.
▲ The dresser is made of black walnut wood, just like the rest of the furniture in the house. Although the color is a little darker, it highlights the vintage feel of the space.
Second bedroom In order to save space, in the smaller second bedroom, we chose a sofa bed from IKEA, which Fay loves every time she goes to IKEA. Once you have people over, you can pull it out and turn it into a double bed. If you don't have people coming over, it's great to do some storage on your own.
Balcony The balcony is a space full of imagination. The sunlight that pours in through the shutters is fine and fragmented with a bit of hazy dreaminess.
The original outdoor corrosion-resistant wood is with a keel, so reserved a certain depth, and ultimately changed his mind to other corrosion-resistant wood. Fay said she would like to buy a rattan chair and string lights, and then installed two curtains to cover the privacy.
Bathroom The corridor was partitioned off for a sink, which also completed the wet/dry separation. In order to ensure the coherence of the space, the shower room is not fully enclosed, made a hotel-style half glass partition.
▲ washstand countertop put a simple toiletries, the owners do not like to open and close the door of the mirror cabinet, so chose this round bathroom mirror . The following cabinet solves the owner's storage needs. The wall on one side of the sink is relatively thin, the other side of the buried wires, can not do niches. So the storage mainly depends on the bathroom cabinet.
I wanted to do a wall lamp, but considering that this light source is not suitable for makeup, so I still bought a mirror with a light, or a cold light color.
▲Simple white marble tiles, in a small space looks particularly simple and generous.
The most satisfactory place for the owner of this case
- Large dining table
Initially, the designer suggested that the owner should not buy a large dining table, which would take up a lot of space. And the dining table is diagonally opposite to the island table, you need to consider reserving the location of the channel. But the owners just want a dining table like Starbucks, you can eat and still be able to code.
Fay finally chose a large 165*85 long table, a pair of Windsor chairs and a bench. Considering that the channel on the side of the island table should be enough space, the island table is not made too long, and a little bit of space is left to put a small cart. The homeowner can happily brush the hot pot to eat in the future!
- island
The kitchen countertop is not big, in addition to the sink and gas stove, there is only a small piece of place to cut vegetables, so the island can also be done at the same time as the operating table and dining table. And the owners of the dishwasher demand is higher than the disinfection cabinet, decisively chose the embedded. The lower part of the island table has a single door and a double door of its own design. Together with the large drawers and the upper row of hanging cabinets, the storage capacity is great.
Fay says:
After 16 years, I can finally live with my family properly!
