How to be a house from now on

My parents' house, which has been built for nearly 50 years, has carried out several major renovations and repeated additions and renovations, but each time we replace the equipment such as the kitchen and bathroom and incorporate the latest ones. However, if you repeat it, you will become more and more concerned about the old part.

In the end, I will consider rebuilding, but I wonder if that way of living is really good... After paying off the mortgage, two generations of parents and children will have to rebuild the mortgage.

I don't remodel or renovate, such as breaking old things and replacing them with new ones, but leaving as many old and good parts (parts with taste) as possible, but only the parts that no longer fit my lifestyle and tastes at that time. We recommend renovations and renovations corresponding to the number of years, such as changing.

If you get a new part as before, you will start to care about the other old parts one after another. If that happens, we will have no choice but to consider rebuilding in the end. It is natural for things to feel old after years, and it can't be helped that it's inconvenient and not easy to use compared to new ones.

However, if you compare the house to a person, it is like a person in his 50s trying to rejuvenate by wearing the fashion of his 20s. However, I don't think it's very attractive. Every time I saw an attractive adult when I was young, I wanted to be like that one day. People who enjoy age-apprenate fashion find it really nice. The mere youthfulness of the appearance only makes you feel the gap with age.

It is inevitable that both people and residences will have scratches, stains, and defects over time. Instead of forcing it to hide it, I think that getting along well will make your life more enjoyable and rich.

If you think about it from that perspective, there are many people who wonder if it is okay to build a house as it is now.

I think there are many people who think that new houses and furniture are good, but by using things carefully, they will become attached to them, and they will be able to tolerate scratches and stains. Also, by repairing it yourself, you can develop memories and memories between things. If that happens, it will be more and more regrettable to let go, and I think it will surely be difficult to change with a new product.

Things like houses and furniture are not just consumables, but also life partners who have spent a long time together. If you think of it as a partner who spends important time together, you will understand how to face them.

The criteria for me to choose things is "a simple design that can be used for a long time. I am attracted to the durable, easy-to-use, and textured goods. And above all, I value the first impression very much.

I try not to buy as many popular styles as that time or things that I only need now, and if I think that the money I spent affects not only the place of purchase, but also the background of the production, who do you vote for in the election? I think it's close to that feeling.

From now on, by shifting from the idea of "buying a house" to "living with a house", you will see a different "way of living" than before.
