Monday, 25/08/2025, 15:10 GMT+7

A true home is not only a place to rest after a long day, but also a place to express your personal identity, your favorite things and your perspective on life. However, among the myriad of interior styles, materials, colors, trends, many people wonder: How to create a house that is "yours" but still beautiful over time, not getting old or outdated after a few years?

The answer is actually simpler than you think. The important thing is not to choose a "hot trend" style, but to choose one that suits your lifestyle, personal values ​​and is sustainable over time.

Unique design

1. Understanding yourself – the first step to a home with personality

Before you start designing any space, take the time to ask yourself:
What do you really like?
What do you want in your home?
Are you a minimalist, nature-loving person, or do you prefer a cozy, nostalgic feel?

The answers to these questions are the foundation for creating a living space that truly reflects your personality. A house may not be too elaborate, not ostentatious, but every little corner makes you feel “belonging”.

2. Choose a core design style – and personalize it

One of the secrets to keeping your living space from becoming outdated is to choose a design style that has lasting value. Styles like Modern Rustic, Japandi (a combination of Japanese and Nordic spirit), or Indochine (ancient Indochinese beauty) always maintain elegance, gentleness and are timeless.

However, you do not need to "copy" a certain design. Choose the elements that you really love and transform them according to your actual needs. It could be the way you arrange a reading corner, the way you mix colors according to your preferences, or keeping an old piece of furniture that you really cherish.

3. Subtle combination of natural materials and light

One of the factors that helps a house to be both unique and durable over time is the use of natural materials: wood, stone, rattan, linen, terracotta... These materials are not only environmentally friendly, but also bring a feeling of closeness, warmth and depth.

Light - especially natural light - also plays an extremely important role. Prioritize open design, take advantage of natural light, combine with ceiling lights and table lamps with soft yellow light to bring a feeling of relaxation and comfort. A bright and airy space is not only beautiful but also good for physical and mental health.

4. Decorate selectively, avoid over-displaying

Many people mistakenly think that the more decor, the more "cool" the space. But in fact, the less but the right, the more outstanding.

You can choose a few highlights such as:

  • A painting that evokes beautiful memories
  • A vase of fresh flowers that changes every week
  • A small bookcase by the window
  • Or a favorite chair in the corner of the house

Moderate restraint will help the house maintain its long-term aesthetics, avoiding a messy or old feeling after a few years.

5.Function is an inseparable factor.

A beautiful house is not enough, it needs to serve your living needs. From the layout of the kitchen - dining - common living area, to the working area, children's play area, relaxation space... Everything should be carefully considered from the beginning, avoiding having to renovate it later. For example: if you work at home, invest in a bright and quiet working corner. If you love nature, make space for green trees or a small balcony corner. These details seem small, but they add great value to daily life.

Relaxation space

6. No need to be "magazine-like", just be true to yourself

The truth is, every home is best when it tells a story.

A story that is imperfect, but true – like the way you love an old piece of furniture because it has memories attached to it. Like the way you keep your kitchen no matter how unfashionable it is, because it’s where you and your loved ones gather every night.

Your home is you – not a copy-paste from Pinterest or Instagram.
