Renovation of rental houses: lovely LOFT of girls living alone in pseudo-literature and art
A place where you stay temporarily should also be treated as a writer.
there is still a year to go before graduation, but my heart has already flown out of the campus, and I also want to experience Beijing drifters' life in advance. In the summer of 20, I rented the first house of my life in Beijing, a lovely LOFT.
as a student, renting a whole set of LOFT is a bit extravagant-obviously the internship salary is only 1,000 yuan a month, and I can barely make ends meet by writing fees and some part-time jobs.
the renovation of the rental house spans about a month, from just moving in to assemble furniture, cleaning, wallpaper, and floor, to moving in a little bit. Watching my first home gradually become bright and comfortable, I can't stop the joy in my heart.
fortunately, the process of renovating the rental house has been recorded by me in bits and pieces, and I feel very lucky to look at every corner of the house.
when the landlord showed me the house for the first time, it was like this:
the family was in vain, and because of the lack of furniture, the landlord even worried about my embarrassment at first.
but in fact, this is my ideal first home. Suitable structure 2. Room for freedom.
except for the kitchen and bathroom. I don't have the money to do an overall transformation, but the living room has a lot of potentials.
the days when I first started to transform were hard. As I had to go to work during the day, I couldn't move into the house every day.
I referred to a lot of designs when I first conceived my cabin. Because I didn't like green, the wall replacement was the first plan I decided on. It took me nearly two weeks to put up the beige wallpaper on and off. The light-colored floor was pasted entirely because the tiles that looked like the toilet floor were too ugly. PVC floor stickers are recommended here, which are easy to operate and have a good sense of feet. I remember that after pasting the floor that night, I was so happy that I danced on the floor barefoot all night, getting high on the one hand and keeping the floor firmly on the other.
it's cool to shoot down from the attic.
the most important part: the desk.
this desk can be regarded as my favorite. Considering that the rental time is not long and there will not be many books, I chose this desk with a bookshelf. It was later found that it was really practical and cut off the structure of the room. The hollowed-out structure will not make the space smaller, the space on the left will be used as the dining table, and the workbench on the right is just right. Specially bought glass pots and cups to drink water, usually soaked in lemonade can not be more enjoyable. The tablecloth is just right for food.
I chose the chair with soft cushions, which turns out to be a hundred times better than the classic plastic one. After all, it takes a long time to sit on the workbench and a comfortable chair is very important.
the wall on the right side of my house has ordered a world map of cloth and cork boards. The corkboard is facing the desk, so it is very convenient to hang small objects and paste memos.
the windowsill is just right for lamps and plants, and the mobile phone is just right to charge, so it's very comfortable to lie in bed and read at night.
explain why the bed is downstairs. The bed itself is sofabed, and the table was not used as a partition at first. It was originally planned to be a living room downstairs. It was the initial design:
but because Beijing was too hot in summer to blow the air conditioner into the attic, I decided to sleep below for the time being. Later found that a different structure is also quite good, at least do not have to face a wall to work. Think about it, what kind of living room does it take to live there alone?
put a canvas next to the bed, usually get up in the morning to change pajamas can be thrown inside so that the bed will not appear very messy.
I put a full-length mirror on the door, which saves a lot of space. For girls, the full-body mirror is necessary. The staircase part of the house was taken in, but because the location was too small, I finally had to open up a new area for clothes.
the space to hide the wardrobe is very small, but I am more satisfied with this layout. The horizontal shelf can fold a lot of clothes, but underwear, save the clothes hanger, and the storage bag on the right can hold underwear and socks.

well, the so-called magic of renting, the clothes hanger of Ikea has appeared again.
the structure on this site is unintentional. At first, I ordered a bar table and two bar chairs online. I originally intended to use them as a partition as a dining table, but then I found that the effect was not ideal because the height of the front half of the room was very low, and the width of the table was not measured properly. As a result, the table can only be used for decoration. Two high chairs were scattered elsewhere. The flower rack on the left was originally intended to put flowers, but later, because of the size problem, it became a useless decoration. The storage box can hold small things such as earrings and invoices, but there are no photos in the Ikea photo frame.
the small white table is a classic model of Ikea. Everyone loves 39 yuan. He usually sits on it to change his shoes, and he can put his bag under the table when he gets home. The shoe rack is too small (be sure to look at the size when using Taobao! I hid the other poorly worn shoes in the cupboard and bought the doormat from Ikea.
look at the kitchen and bathroom.
Kitchen I have added practical household appliances such as refrigerator, induction cooker, electric cooker, kettle and egg cooker, as well as several shelves, especially praising the folding table next to the sink, which costs only 20 yuan, but it is very useful. you can put cutting boards and unwashed dishes and chopsticks.
and the faucet water purifier. Because the water quality in Nancheng, Beijing is really. At first, when I boiled water every day, I felt very anxious when I looked at a layer of floating objects, and now with this little thing, a lot of problems can be solved. Yes, about 100 yuan is not expensive, but obviously, feel the improvement in the quality of life.
the toilet has changed a lot. In the first few days of moving in, I not only painted the floor and walls with hydrochloric acid, but also painted the mirror white, and the mobile upright frame was also very practical.
Last look at the balcony.
Yes, I found that it was the same as before, mainly because of this cumbersome wardrobe and folding bed. I really can't move it. So much so that I can't even sell it.
I don't have to work as an intern, and I spend most of my time in the house on weekdays. When my friends see the changes before and after the transformation, they seem to be impressed by me, and they have to have enough love for life. To treat every temporary place as a writer.
