The simple and practical planning and layout can best reflect the scientific consumption concept of modern people who pay attention to life taste, pay attention to health and fashion, and pay attention to reasonable and economical consumption. American, European, and neoclassical styles with many lines are more suitable for large-space residences. These styles have complex shapes, sophisticated materials, and high requirements for later matching soft furnishings, so the owners need to prepare more budget< /p>
3. Minimize demolition and modification as much as possible: In decoration, there is a famous saying "It is cheap to tear down a wall, but it is expensive to build a wall"
Wall demolition is really not expensive, as long as you pay some workers' wages. However, in addition to the cost of workers when building walls, the owner also has to bear the cost of bricks, cement, paint and other materials, transportation costs, and moving costs upstairs
The same is true for wall renovation
