Minimalist Decor and Aesthetics
Take inspiration from the aesthetics of tiny houses to make your home feel simple and cozy. Living Scented gives lot of unique ideas on this topic. Some styles many tiny houses have in common are:
- Modular furniture: Modular furniture is multipurpose and easily rearranged, which is perfect when you want to change up your space.
- Reading nook: A reading nook is a space that makes the area feel cozy and productive. Tiny houses are famous for combining a luxurious yet rustic look that allows for ultimate comfort.
- Simple color scheme: It’s best to keep the colors simple. A neutral or black-and-white color scheme applies minimalist principles to make a space easier to decorate; it also helps the space feel cleaner. Cleanliness and minimalism can both help with being mindful.
- Clutter-free space: A tidy space helps put the mind at ease. To make your home a restful place, declutter and donate items that don’t bring you joy.
Eco-friendly and Sustainable Practices
Tiny houses also focus on being sustainably designed and eco-friendly. Read on for some ideas on how to make your home more sustainable.
- Rainwater collection: Collecting rainwater is a great way to make your home more sustainable and cut back on water consumption. You only need a couple bins!
