Umhlobiso wasekhaya uwuhlobo lobuciko oluhlanganisa ubuhle, ukusebenza, nokuveza komuntu siqu. Umongo wayo usekuhlanganiseni kwendawo, ifenisha, umbala, nezinto zokuhlobisa ngendlela engokwemvelo ngokusebenzisa izindlela zokuqamba zesayensi nezinengqondo ukuze kwakhiwe indawo yokuhlala enethezekile nesitayela.
Okokuqala, ukuhlela indawo kuyisisekelo sokuhlobisa. Isakhiwo somsindo sithuthukisa ukunyakaza futhi sithuthukise ukusebenza kahle kokuphila. Imiklamo yepulani evuliwe-ifanele amafulethi amancane, ukunciphisa ama-partitions futhi ithuthukisa umuzwa womoya. Izakhiwo zendabuko ezinezindawo ezicacile zisiza ukuhlukaniswa okusebenzayo, njengokuhlukaniswa kwezindawo zokuhlala nezokulala. Okwesibili, ukukhethwa kwefenisha kufanele kulinganisele ukusebenza ngesitayela esihlangene. Izingcezu ezinkulu ezifana nosofa namatafula okudlela kufanele zibekwe phambili; impahla yabo, umbala, kanye nokuma kuzobeka ithoni iyonke. Isibonelo, isitayela seNordic sithanda ifenisha yokhuni elula, kuyilapho isitayela sezimboni ngokuvamile sihlanganisa izakhi zensimbi nezesikhumba.
Ukumatanisa umbala kubalulekile ekudaleni umoya. Imibala eyinhloko yenza u-60%, ngokuvamile amathoni aphakathi nendawo (njengokucisha-okumhlophe nokumpunga okukhanyayo) ukuze kube nokunethezeka okubonakalayo; imibala yesibili ibalelwa ku-30%, esetshenziswa ezindongeni nasefenisha enkulu; nemibala yokugcizelela, njengamacushion nemidwebo elengayo, yenza u-10%, okwenza indawo ibe nempilo. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, ukufakwa kwezakhi zokuhlobisa akunakunakwa. Izitshalo zengeza ubungqabavu, umsebenzi wobuciko uthuthukisa okushiwo amasiko, kanye nomklamo wokukhanyisa, ngokuhlanganiswa kokukhanya okuyisisekelo, okwesibili, nokuhlobisa, kulolonga isigqi sokukhanya nobumnyama esikhaleni.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, inkulumo yomuntu siqu ingumphefumulo wokuhlobisa ikhaya. Izikhumbuzo zokuvakasha, imisebenzi yezandla, noma ifa lomndeni lingagcwalisa isikhala ngokubaluleka okuhlukile ngokomzwelo. Ekugcineni, ukuhlobisa ikhaya okuhle kakhulu akukhona nje ukunqwabelana kwezakhi, kodwa inhlanganisela ehlelekile esekelwe ezidingweni zokusebenza nezintandokazi zobuhle, okudala ukuzwakala okuvumelana phakathi komhlali nendawo.
