RE: Minimalism, Aestheticism, and the Pursuit of a Home That Reflects Me

in The MINIMALIST2 months ago

Someone commented to me that these perfectly curated influencer homes look like galleries or show house, not places where people live and definitely not cosy. Me, I'm working to get as many things off the floor as possible so I can have one of those robot cleaners. Carts are great, I love the little trolly things you can get from IKEA and other places and, in the short term, while I'm saving up, I will probably stick everything behind floor to ceiling curtains. I have a large bolt of calico that I can see a future for (I have been carrying it around for about twenty-five years, it's time it earned its living)!

I like the idea of the broken canvas house and gently bringing it together as you want. It reminds me of kintsugi. Looking forward to seeing how you create your home.

They are definitely like a show house or they just have this strictly routine and habit to maintain the state of their house. I mean, I have cats and you can imagine how messy it can be with their furs and them scratching the sofas haha.

I wish by next year they're more livable. I'd love to invite friends over and have a room ready for them 😊. I am an only child in this family and I always love having people enliven the house. Thank you for checking this one out, I really appreciated it 😊

strictly routine and habit

I think they are often rich enough to have help 😂

Haha ... just imagining the cats! Pets definitely bring you down to earth 😍.

I'm sure that little by little you'll get things how you want, I'm enjoying reading about you creating your home. It inspires me.
