The secret to reviving a gloomy, lifeless house

(Dan Tri) - You can easily change your living space to become fresher just by rearranging the light, green plants, and adding a little natural essential oil scent.

Do you feel your home is cramped and lifeless? Feeling lethargic and lacking in energy at home can have a huge impact on your mood and productivity. So how can you renovate your home to make it fresh, full of life and help you find inspiration again?

Here are five simple yet effective tips to help you revitalize your living space yourself.

Enter the house feeling refreshed

Interior architects often use the impact of touch to change people's psychology before entering a space. A little cold feeling will help people's minds become alert. Therefore, the floor in the lobby area, where shoes are removed, should be tiled, with metal or stone handles to help wake up the homeowner before entering the space inside.

Spatial psychology says that the human body and mind have the ability to synchronize with the surrounding space. Waking up early helps the human body quickly integrate and adjust when entering the house. You will quickly feel comfortable and relaxed when lying down in the living room with many natural materials after a long day of work.

Change the light

Lighting plays an important role in interior design as well as affecting human psychology.

If you do not have enough budget to hire professional interior design companies, you can hire units that specialize in lighting. These units will help measure and check the quality of light and lighting equipment in the house. They can even design and rearrange the lighting based on your preferences.

Instead of using just one type of light, combining different light sources will bring unexpected visual and emotional effects. Layering light is an important technique in interior design, helping to create diverse living spaces that meet many different needs.

Awaken the sense of smell

To make a space less dull and more lively, scent is one of the key things. When entering a space with a musty, old smell, your mood will quickly become unpleasant and uncomfortable.

Therefore, the simple secret to a cozy and lively home that few people pay attention to is using fragrance. You can use natural essential oils or scented candles with the scent of orange, lemon or cinnamon.

Highlights of vitality

Another simple way to make a space more lively is to bring nature into the house. If you do not have time to take care of it, you can use artificial plants. The human brain processes emotions when looking at fake plants and real plants in the same way. When we look at green plants, we immediately feel comfortable compared to a space full of artificial concrete.

In addition to trees, you can arrange pictures of natural landscapes. Even, if possible, raising pets such as dogs and cats will quickly infuse strong life energy into the house.

Cleanliness factor

If you come home to a messy, dimly lit house, you won’t have the motivation to get up and clean it. So, if you have applied the 4 tips above, you will have enough energy to clean your house.

Cleanliness is the number one factor in adding vitality to a space. Psychologists also confirm that cleaning up your living space has the same effect as cleaning up your mind. From there, you will feel everything healed and refreshed.
