Take the living room as example, one corner is divided using a shelf cabinet for storage and to create a small working space.

Tips On Muji-Themed Design:

The important element of a Muji-themed design besides minimalism is the colour tone. To achieve that Zen-living ambiance, earth-toned floorings are essential as they take up almost 60% of the space. Here’s a tip: Vannies spent about RM3000 on her hardwood flooring without demolishing the original floor tiles. She used SPC vinyl click flooring which is glue-free and also easy to remove for future renovations.
