Many modern people pay attention to home decoration and atmosphere, but sometimes there are many miscellaneous objects and collections in the home, which will make the space appear chaotic. Japanese home resident Nabe shared on the Benesse website how he balances the collection of items and maintains integrity.

Transformed from a simplified person into a beloved item

Nabe said that about eight years ago, he was influenced by the simplified person, throwing away all the clothes, objects and even unnecessary furniture in his home, and living in an empty room.

Although the living space was indeed refreshing, he gradually felt that "it seemed to be missing something". Later, he realized that some items actually could be spiritual, so he started to leave the things he liked a little bit behind.

Last year, Nabe inherited the old house where his grandparents lived. The space included tableware, cooking utensils, messengers and various antiques he carefully selected, which not only made home life richer, but also showed the taste of the owner of the house.

The key to relaxing the space sanitation

1. The color matching and material of a unified space

The secret to putting things at home without any confusion is "the color and material of a unified object".

Nabe space looks almost white and wood in color, with cups, bowls, plates, and utensils placed in racks or stored in rattan sacks or aluminum containers.

For example, white ceramic or glass is used for tableware, so even if it is not put into the cabinet, it will be clean and clean.

2. Open storage of daily necessities

Nabe is used to put the things you need every day in an open space that you can hold, rather than in a drawer or cabinet.

They built their homes into open storage space, used doorless sinks, and removed the locker doors. This not only facilitates the pick-up and placement of items, but also prevents moisture from gathering and causing growth.

And some more life-like items such as clothes, toothbrushes, etc., Nabe will hide them in a candle or paper bag.

3. The quantity of items should be controlled at about 60% of the space. Although I like to collect goods and antiques, Nabe still has some regulations on the quantity of clothes and daily necessities. Clothes only retain fixed styles and maintain the same quantity.

In addition, Nabe will also use existing things to store items, such as using wooden sticks as clothes racks and using used clean paper bags to store clothes.

He suggested that the quantity of items should be controlled at about 60% of the venue, so that enough comfortable living space can be left.
