Design a Home You Love (Based on Psychology!)
We spend a fortune decorating our homes for aesthetics, but often overlook what truly matters: how it makes us FEEL.
As biological creatures, we are drawn to spaces that make us feel safe and comfortable, responding to environments that align with our deep-seated hunter-gatherer instincts, shaped by millions of years of evolution.
By understanding these psychological needs which we will cover in this video, you can transform your home into a place that not only looks beautiful but also calms your mind, boosts your mood, and makes you truly feel at home.

Scrolling through social media, drowning in a sea of impossibly chic living rooms that look like nobody actually lives in them.

8 Rules For A Timeless Home (According To An Architect)
Great video! 👍
This is fab. I never thought of half of these.
Amazing video, as always! Slowly, I am getting a degree on interior design, lol
Nicely summarised
👏👏👏 You are the first person I have ever heard advocating for separate kitchen and living space. Western cooking is almost always in (at least partially) in the oven. I watch a lot of home Reno or house hunting shows. Every one wants an open plan kitchen. Imagine cutting onions or even frying them in an open plan kitchen everyone’s eyes would be watering and the smell of food would permeate the upholstery and curtains in the house. No matter how powerful the exhaust. 🤷♀️ at least Asians should understand their kitchen needs and not demand open plan kitchens.
I absolutely agreed with everything you said. Thank you.
Thank you so much, you’re such a treasure !! <3
You need a not slip under rug for your ikea rug . Cut the carpet fringes very short . It will not bother you anymore .
yeah, I would feel ripped off if I payed for a "masterclass" and got tips like "play around" and "do what feels good" x)
I'd love to walk into a beige home and see a touch of red in there. I think it would be fabulous.
I agree!!
having the bed on that wall will mean closing the door to enter the bedroom unless your on the near side or climb the bed
I'm going trough similiar things. Congratulations for following your innerself and your passion. I can't wait to quit my job in a few weeks and start my own path! All the best and thank you for sharing your story.
How to apply Feng Shui without talking about it
I love this advice. I’ll add that for color grading, one does need darkness, with 6500K daylight behind the monitor or above the keyboard/control surface.
Such much good information!
As always, good advice, thank you
We cried too.
😭
so interesting!! thank you for breaking this down for the design beginners like myself hehe
ikea cabinet handles are so outdated and overpriced
Your editing is everything ❤ thank you for tips
Can you please do make up tutorial?
👋👋👋

Hi, looks great! What cabinets are these?
LERHYTTAN cabinet fronts from Ikea!
In my personal experience, the command position does not work if your desk setup contains a big wide monitor or there are many devices connected, cables, etc. The best is to bring those cables and big pieces that are over your desk, against a wall, otherwise the first thing that you will see as soon as you open the door y a big wide monitor and some cables, even if they are organized, it’s like seeing the backstage of a theater.
Very helpful video. Drawers for everything didn’t exist in 2008 when wegot our askersund ikea kitchen. If only! Bought in a rush after an extension. What are your views on an island versus dining area?We can’t have both, only one or the other. Which don’t recommend? Thank you
Glad it was helpful! I personally love having a dining table, it feels so much more comfortable, wholesome and family friendly to have everyone seated around a table. Sitting around an island feels more like something only for adults and parties! But that's just my personal preferences, and it very much depends on your lifestyle and the type of social events you want to create at your home :)
Hey Baixu. May i ask the price of this apartment?
Hiya! It’s not my apartment so unfortunately I cannot share the financial details with you, sorry! 😅
@@baixu no worries 😀
I was hoping for this kinda advice and there you come. You are really great at observing little details.
Welcome to this channel 😄 and thanks!! I love sharing all these design knowledge so we can all be obsessed together haha. Hope you’ll stick around!
Love it! I know IKEA sells a deco strip for the bottom of cabinets/ to hide lights. Have you thought about installing one on your picture ledge to camouflage the light?
No I haven't gotten round to fixing my regrets yet! Still so many other DIY projects to work on. It's great to know for the future - thanks!!

Would you recommend building a kitchen away from the sloping ceiling or right under it?
Tricky to say without seeing the room. It really depends on the slope height! Because you will still need to be able to stand underneath it. If you like, you can email me your design troubles with more context and information at hellobaixu@gmail.com! And I can see if I can help 😊
@@baixu I did!
@mrsbryant I’ve seen your email! I will answer tonight! 😊
@@baixu I really want to say thank you again for all your time and effort. Also you are very kind. I really love your channel!!
You owned the cons with grace. Great job on the kitchen!
Thank you! 😊
How did you change the colour of the floor ?
We sanded it, got a wood floor paint/stain in a dark colour and a layer of wax on top!
Amazing, eye smoothing,cool design,Sister.
I purchased £2100 of a token on the app. Its price went up to £2400, but when I go to sell, I can only sell for £2000. The spread is ridiculously high. Even though I made close to 20% profit, I can only sell for £100 less than when I first bought in. That's genuinely insane to me. I would need to make about 30% profit, just to cash out at the same price I bought in at. How is that even legal??? Is it the same on the exchange? Seems a lot cheaper to just send it to coinbase and cash it out there
