Picnic at Hanging Rock is literally THE embodiment of Light Academia for me, especially the eerie and atmospheric movie. I always get inspired by it when it comes to LA. Don't care about the show tho. The book and the 70s movie are where it's at.👌🏻
Light academia is by far my favorite aesthetic. I look at dark academia as being relatively specific, but light academia seems to have a little more room for interpretation; it's broader. I love what you did with your rental space! Bravo! One of my favorite elements is the map 🤩
Some of your newer pieces like the statues can be aged out with antiqueing wax or watered down black paint. Also you can age your book pages with steeped tea. I love your space. SO PRETTY
3:19 If I had to pick inspiration from a book for Light Academia, I would choose A room with a view by E.M. Forster (also the 1980s film version with Helena Bonham Carter would be a great visual inspiration!). When I think in Dark Academia vs. Light Academia, the first seems to draw inspiration on British manors and colleges (also New England colleges), while the second one seems more classical Mediterranean inspired, something along the lines of taking the Grand Tour to Italy to expand your education visiting the Galleria dell'Accademia in Florence or strolling around Villa Borghese in Rome.
You did a beautiful job of the transformation from dark to light. The favorite elements are how you stacked the books to elevate the mirror! Great idea! Also your LA shirts are lovely and capture that look really well! Congratulations on your new space!
I loved that book stacking too!!! It made the desk look so much cooler but I definitely need to get the perfect mirror still. Thanks so much for the lovely feedback 🥰🥰🥰
Beautiful job. I always like dark academia. Even thought I am a light spirit person. I am going to try this for my bedroom. Thanks for the inspiration.
I didn't think I could love your room even more after the Dark Academia room makeover but you've done it. The map with the bust is absolutely gorgeous!
Omg thank you!!!! I’m so happy you like it!! I was honestly unsure what people would say but it warms my heart it speaks to you🥰🥰 p.s. that’s a Harry potter wizarding map 😂
My sitting room is decorated with a William Morris wallpaper and dark green paint but I also change things in summer to lighten it by using cream curtains instead of burgundy lighter throws and cushions and decor pieces etc inspired a lon time ago by my late mother in law who had green velvet curtains in winter and floral ones in summer ( 50 year ago ! ) 🥰
Totally agree with you, thrifting is the way to go! It feels extra special decorating your space with already loved items and giving them a second life. Affordable and good for the environment too 💗 your room turned out beautifully!
Perfect timing for this video! I have been itching to change out my room to something lighter for spring. I love the idea of using a patterned sheet to cover a wall. Thanks for all the great ideas!
Es increíble como cambió la atmósfera y la energía de un estilo a otro🤎ambos maravillosos por supuesto🥰🤍estoy encantada tanto con D.A y L.A🤎🤍Querida Lanchen debes saber que tú hermosa energía es la esencia de cada remodelacion🤎eres realmente una inspiración🤍
Everything is quite lovely, and well put together. The paper doilies, on the other hand, r aesthetically deficient because they appear quite harsh at a simple glance. They clash with yer otherwise superb taste in yer overall decor. The placing of books facing forward rather than with the spines on display, or even music pages scattered around, implies profound studying. The fact that u chose 2 put the sheet on the wall in reverse really accentuates texture and interest as well as a conversational piece. U have done quite well. Congrats.
Every time I see one of your videos, I discover you have this incredible ability to transport me into a new realm. I see you enchanting us, the viewers of your channel, like if you were the protagonist of this amazing world full of mystery, poetry, beauty and adventure. You are the epitome of a “walking human-poem” in this pollute and mundane world because you fill us with such a magic only you own. I admire you so much Lanch, ❤
Can you please do something of the Shire themed in future? Like the Hobbiton? I'd love to see that. If only you are comfortable with that of course. At this point, your decoration is the only decoration that matches exactly to how I imagine things so I'd love to see something of the Shire themed. P. S. And this decoration is amazing might I add!!
I WOULD TOTALLY DO THIS! It would be an absolute dream to have a room or a house like that 😍😱 I’ll start making a Pinterest board and see what I can come up with. I wonder if anyone has done that before
I loved your dark academia makeover gave me so much ideas to help transform the rooms I'm doing in our house. You did a great job on this one as well. I might have to change our during the spring and summer time. Thank you so much for sharing.
Loved it!!!! Who knows! We probably, as God’s children have different needs or tendencies, according to what we were created for. This should have to see the tendency we have in our tastes and which ambiances cradle us better. So pretty your room! Congrats! Enjoy!
Nice to see you gain subs , basically the way to explain everything makes it all so much pleasant and even attracts people to your channel who don't have much idea about your content 😀, keep posting good content 😀
I really like that the somber lighting from candles being placed around the room brought. but at the same time watching them so close to fabrics made me nervous thinking they might catch on fire. also, its just a preference, but i would only keep books that you have read or have genuine interest interest in reading. it would speak about your personality more, even if they are not vintage, or have beautifull hard cover, or have pictures of places you haven't really been to. It just ended up being too "costumey" and less purposeful/ authentic. one tip I would give is actually use everything in your room, that includes reading those books, using those fountain pens to write letters regularly so they naturally fall where they be based on how convenient and practical they are to your every day use. or else it just ends up feeling like they are just knickknacks collecting dust, and honestly they will become boring and would loose interest to you cause they only serve as novelty items you bought off amazon. Then again, I can't blame you, you have this lay out to showcase and present this as a form to showcase to your youtube audience. Live the "light-dark-academia" life style, not just show it, you will naturally add purpose and authenticity to those things around you.
Another stellar video! I especially love that mirror, accent wall, and Harry Potter map. You’ve given me so much inspo! Sending love, light, and all the positive vibes your way❤️✨☺️
this video was just what i needed! saw your dark academia room makeover and loved it and started to incorporate elements in my my room but wanted it to be lighter and more airy like light academia
I'm really enjoying your videos. I like that you hung a sheet on the wall. I hung a lace tablecloth above my bed. The use of book pages is subline. Yes, the right music really sets the scene. I like to play Gregorian chants.
I just purchased my Forever Home and Light Academia as an aesthetic is the definition of allI yearn to be surrounded by. Thank you for this highly motivating video. An Academic cottagecore look is my ultimate goal. 📚
Love it! Great watching you evolve! #lightacadamia is perfect for #spring and #summer! Loved how you flipped the books! Great idea! The sheet was a great way to change an entire wall color too! So, much easier than painting and not committal! Bravo! #🙌
Since you said you didn’t have anything specific to reference when coming up with a light academia themed room, I always envision some take on Leonardo da Vinci’s studio. Very bright and warm, with the workspace element making the organized chaos actually work. Good vid!
The wall is stunning and I wouldn't have thought that a construction like this with the tape holds so well 😊. And I love the white blouse with the lace 😍 somebody having a tip where to get one like this?
So glad I found your channel. I'm having way too much fun catching up on your videos. You have encouraged me to look around and change things to fully enjoy my surroundings. Thank you!
You've probably changed your room again by now as this vid is a year old but I wanted to tell you that 1, it looks amaze & 2, to knock that bright white look out of the paper doilies you can soak them in tea then let dry & it gives them an aged effect (like old book pages) ♥
Just a tip. You can make fabric adhere to a wall temporarily by applying liquid starch to the fabric and pasting it in the wall. It is removable and doesn't damage walls
So creative hanging the sheet in place of wallpaper. I believe those were Safety pins not Bobby pins but definitely easy to get the names mixed up. Great job!
Haha yea I’ve been corrected 😅 Aw welllll but yea I’ve done it in multiple rooms and it’s a great way to not ruin your walls and switch up the feel of it
I like what you did. I really like the sheet as wallpaper. I also have a king size sheet as wall paper. Please Turn The Books Around to show the spines. It is simply not necessary to hide them. Many antique academic books are dark. That's OK.
Thank you so much for this beautiful video. I loved the hanging sheet so much. I wonder if you could briefly explain how you used the safety pin and the Alien tape to hang the sheet? I am guessing the pin goes through the sheet and then is taped to the wall but it wasn't close up enough to see exactly how. Thanks!
Loved this! ❤ I watched it because my daughter told me that my bedroom is light academia and I didn’t know what that meant ☺️ but I do have lots of battery-operated timbered candles to keep me on track time wise, hardbound books, pa paperblanks journals, beige walls, raw silk curtains with sheets underneath. The only thing I don’t get is the books being reversed because I just have to have the spines visible. It would drive me nuts to not see the book titles or the lovely ornate spines of my journals. Okay now I have to check out your dark academia video because I know nothing about it either.
Hi, Quick question, would you mind sharing the width of your desk. It looks perfect but every time I look for one they all seem too wide. I’m looking for something thinner like yours. Please let me know if possible. Thank you!
Mine is 15 inches wide and 51 inches in length. It’s called a console table, you can also look up writing desks as well, they are the same size. They are the perfect option in small spaces and look so aesthetic 🥰🥰
I really love this!! And by the way your really pretty but I actually wanted to ask where you got your books from. Are they from a thrift store, did you just buy it on amazon or just from a book store?
For my opinion it is very important to actually LIVE in this space and using all the items instead of staging it to look great....like in a museum or theatre, You know what I mean. I live such a sort of "light academia" long before there was a term for it. (I frankly do not understand why nobody speaks about this very english and european old style which was long before an aestethic!?) Maybe it os worth a video? ;-) Nice regards!
I think I just want to feel like I’m living in a theme park surrounded by sets 😅 I have a problem haha But you are right! It very much traditional and classic interiors which are timeless. A video on that might be a good idea!
So apparently cornstarch mix with water will allow fabric to stick to walls without ruining the sheet or the wall. Create the mixture then soak your sheet in the solution. Spread the sheet out over the wall and using the same solution dip your wide paint brush in the cornstarch/water mixture and smooth out the sheet, as it dries it will stick to the wall. I believe this is an old technique military wives would use that moved from place to place and didn’t have time or permission to make changes to rentals.
oh yes they were right! In my old apartment I had 4, 8ft mirrors that I lined in my living room to make it feel larger and bring it more light! I wish I still had them 😭
Oh putting books with pages out would drive me insane..sorry. We’ve so many books, one room a dedicated library and music room, but the study and other rooms still have bookcases. Over the years it’s become one of the things that drives me crazy when I can’t find a given text. There’s just something about real books collected over time. Computing resources and microscopes are great but sort of intrusive. Yeah Im a long time university academic! Love some of your ideas, some really take me back. I still miss the old college university library and stacks at work, they now sometimes seem too clinical having lost a traditional atmosphere! Though there are still unique time capsules in the older U.K. universities. if you know where they are.
Ugh I wish. I moved awhile ago and at the time I only had a portrait lens. I shot in this room for sometime though and got a wide lens later, in my DA day writing video you see a lot more of it. th-cam.com/video/lflFt-zb0Z0/w-d-xo.html
Just wanted to add a quick PSA about the use of candles in this video. I am in no way advising anyone to light candles in the way I choose to in my video. Candles were lit strictly for my shots and were blown out after. If you do choose to have candles in your home opt for flameless candles (this is what I use day to day) and if you do choose to have real candles, Please use with caution, do not leave candles unattended at anytime and keep them away from anything flammable.
Picnic at Hanging Rock is literally THE embodiment of Light Academia for me, especially the eerie and atmospheric movie. I always get inspired by it when it comes to LA. Don't care about the show tho. The book and the 70s movie are where it's at.👌🏻
I’m looking this up!!!
Thanks for the recommendation!!
@@justlanchen You're very welcome. Coincidentally the director Peter Weir directed both this movie and Dead Poets Society.
Creepy movie!
Very creepy movie.

Aside: I have those sheets! They've been in the family since the mid 1980s! So fun to see them on a wall and without the 80s connotation.

THE CANDLES NEXT TO THE SHEET ARE GIVING ME SO MUCH ANXIETY LMAO
Honestly same! Hahah I had them decently far away from the wall though I swear
WOW, I love how it turned out. I just noticed that in the candlelight it looks more like dark academia than light academia. Still love it!🥰🥰

Very lovely! 🤩
Just a tip. You can make fabric adhere to a wall temporarily by applying liquid starch to the fabric and pasting it in the wall. It is removable and doesn't damage walls
wait what! I did not know this. does it wash out of the fabric afterwards?
im TOTALLY DOING THIS. thank you for that awesome tip
@@justlanchen it does wash off
Thank you for pronouncing "academia" correctly! ❤
When you started cutting your book my brain went Michael Scott and started yelling “please God no God please no… NOOOOOOOO”
Very beautiful.
Brilliant!
So creative hanging the sheet in place of wallpaper. I believe those were Safety pins not Bobby pins but definitely easy to get the names mixed up. Great job!
Haha yea I’ve been corrected 😅 Aw welllll but yea I’ve done it in multiple rooms and it’s a great way to not ruin your walls and switch up the feel of it
I like what you did. I really like the sheet as wallpaper. I also have a king size sheet as wall paper. Please Turn The Books Around to show the spines. It is simply not necessary to hide them. Many antique academic books are dark. That's OK.
Next time you could iron the wall sheet for a neater appearance. You know our light academians like to be neat
I only had a steamer :(
Thank you so much for this beautiful video. I loved the hanging sheet so much. I wonder if you could briefly explain how you used the safety pin and the Alien tape to hang the sheet? I am guessing the pin goes through the sheet and then is taped to the wall but it wasn't close up enough to see exactly how. Thanks!
Loved this! ❤ I watched it because my daughter told me that my bedroom is light academia and I didn’t know what that meant ☺️ but I do have lots of battery-operated timbered candles to keep me on track time wise, hardbound books, pa paperblanks journals, beige walls, raw silk curtains with sheets underneath. The only thing I don’t get is the books being reversed because I just have to have the spines visible. It would drive me nuts to not see the book titles or the lovely ornate spines of my journals.

Didn’t you just make a British country cottage style with candles? Loved your explanations here.
She holds dearly just did an academia video.
Can you show the whole room instead of closeups of different areas?
Ugh I wish. I moved awhile ago and at the time I only had a portrait lens.
I shot in this room for sometime though and got a wide lens later, in my DA day writing video you see a lot more of it.
th-cam.com/video/lflFt-zb0Z0/w-d-xo.html
this is set design
That is the highest compliment. I’ve always wanted to do set design
Your room looks gorgeous, but the sheet on the wall can produce mold. If I was you, I would look for removable wallpaper and do only one accent wall.
Just wanted to add a quick PSA about the use of candles in this video.
I am in no way advising anyone to light candles in the way I choose to in my video. Candles were lit strictly for my shots and were blown out after.
If you do choose to have candles in your home opt for flameless candles (this is what I use day to day) and if you do choose to have real candles, Please use with caution, do not leave candles unattended at anytime and keep them away from anything flammable.
Gold rub n buff. It will change your life.
I want to do this but I am addicted to having lamps. Do you think it would look ok? I love love your makeover!!!
Yes of course!
where did you get your steamer from?
For dark or light, I don't get why the books are turned so you can't see the titles. Otherwise, I like the rooms.
Its just to keep all the colors in my space cohesive in my space
I LOVE your Victorian shirt!Did you thrift it or did you make it yourself?
