HOME is more than just the brick and mortar. It is the embodiment of one’s personality, from the choice of furniture, layout to the very colours on the wall.
While people are usually content with a home that looks like everyone else, with the exception of some minor deviations, some people go the extra mile to impress.
Take it from a charming Malay lady who wowed the internet community with her expansive landed home which is designed around the concept of a museum.
The video came to light after being posted by netizen @bckupacc99 who said it looked like a resort from the outside, but a museum from the inside.
Even more astounding was the fact that a good many of the decorations were hand-made by the lady herself.
Cantik rumahnya, estetik tetapi klasik..👏

She even had exhibits composed of an old iron, rotary phone, and a leg-powered sewing machine. Wood made up the floor, and also a good deal of the home, giving the place a warmth that few homes can compare to.
The video, although brief, was a feast for the eyes, as well as serving as an inspiration for others looking to redesign their homes.
On another note, homes revolving around themes of antiquity actually fetch a good price on the market despite their apparent lack of touch with the times.
Take for example, the heritage homes in George Town, Penang, which commands a market rate of about RM1.6 mil.
A pair of adjoining 3-story heritage shophouses on Macalister Lane is further listed for a whopping RM7.3 mil.
Such homes have since been turned into cafes, hotels and even mini-museums which serve as tourist attractions.
No one could tell the value of this very unique museum-home, but from the looks of it, it is bound to fetch a good price on the property market. —June 30, 2025
