How to make the apartment comfortable, functional and stylish?
How to pay arising in her pockets irritation?
And what pereplanirovka apartment, not worth doing in any case?
1. Zoning large space
Total fashion free layout, Studio apartments and a combined kitchen-dining has its pitfalls. Any architect will tell you that just to break down the walls is not enough. Not divided into subzones a large area may soon begin to oppress. Remove partitions between rooms, combine them with corridors and kitchen - and you get a completely new place, as soon you find you don't like to live. Why? Because psychologically we need a few different places for different classes.
We need to separate, at least conventionally delimited zone, where we would be able to network and dine without feeling behind twenty meters of empty space that was secluded area, where we could relax with a book, and so on.
The first rule of planning open space - at least visually divide the zones of different functional purposes - cooking, eating, watching TV, work, leisure, communication... It can be done using:
a) different textures of the floor;
b) the drop height of the ceiling or arch between the kitchen and living area;
in several columns;
g) light curtain (usually a dining room is illuminated more brightly, and the kitchen is in the twilight, where are illuminated working surface);
d) "bar" or some other interior items that act as barrier.
2. Cast smells, clip sounds
The Studio is certainly great, but there is one "but". When we cook, we burn burgers, escapes milk, etc. the Situation is as in advertising, only exactly the opposite: "And the smell! This smell!.." We are okay, aired and forgotten. And upholstered furniture? And carpets? And curtains? Tissues absorb odors like a sponge. If you often cook at home, make a sliding wall between the kitchen and living area at any time the kitchen will be cut off. In addition, the partition wall is sound and the screen.
3. We decorate the spacious rooms
In very large areas is not necessary to arrange the furniture exclusively on the perimeter.
Why do you want the room resembled a military parade or dance classes? Fill in the "dining group" or simply the guest sofa.
4. "Extensible" small room
You have a model apartment with a tiny kitchen and very spacious rooms? Visually enlarge the space by using:
a) the longitudinal direction of the floorboards or parquet design;
b) doors with glass, mirror folds wardrobes and simply mirrors;
C) for deck lighting.
There is a widespread opinion that bright colors visually enlarge the room. But in very small rooms, for example, 8 square meters, white Wallpaper will not solve the problem. On the contrary, many small bright room are depressing, causing the Association with the clinic or latrine.
Small room it is better to make bright, like a jewelry box.
And if you are afraid of color "overload" leave one wall bright and monochromatic.
5. "Raises" ceiling
If you want to visually increase the height of the ceiling, you can make it multi-level, for example, in the corridors below, and in the rooms above. Low ceiling at the entrance to the room creates the illusion of higher ceilings in the living area of the apartment.
Another way to visually "lift" the ceiling is to choose a Wallpaper with a vertically running pattern - for example, in classic stripes.
6. Repeatable elements
If you use on the interior plastic elements such as arches, curved walls, curved podium or stand - always somewhere repeat these lines again. The Golden rule of interior designer: all expressive details must find an echo in the adjacent, simultaneously visible elements.
However, you should not build too many arches - you still modern apartment, not a palatial Suite.
7. Select door and window
If you like sliding doors - choose coupe on two rails - top and bottom. The door to one of the upper mount is very unstable: the slightest draught she "walks". With this coupe now and then you will Wake up at night from a nasty rattle.
Whatever you chose, all the doors that are visible at one time, must be in the same style.
"Door discordance" really spoils the overall impression.
The same applies to the Windows. By the way, look best open symmetric covers should not aspire to the asymmetry of the Windows where we can avoid it.
8. What not to do in the kitchen
The kitchen is an arena where you can watch the "unity and struggle" three opposites - plate, sink and refrigerator. Each of these elements must have at least a minimum of space, but at the same time they do not have to stand far away from each other. And do not put between them interfering move obstacles - this will create in your kitchen a source of constant irritation (here she is a frequent cause of "kitchen" family quarrels! ).
If you decide to put on the kitchen set with a separate "island", plan his place so that all four sides remained aisles not less than one meter or they will be uncomfortable to use - and you are guaranteed another source of irritation.
Kitchen walls, you can close the so-called kitchen "apron".
This advice is particularly important for older homes where often visited utilities to change the wiring, batteries, gas pipes... When installing kitchen units are not places tightly accesses to the same communications. Keep in mind that to remove the whole "apron" of plastic is much easier than to break the tile.
9. So whether you need a podium?
This seems to be a beautiful thing as the podium often turns out to dislocated joints and broken children's knees. Many people, who at home "step", complaining that it was very uncomfortable. If it is possible to arrange the space otherwise, the floor is better to leave without changes.
In addition, the floor above, the ceiling below. And, accordingly, the air is so precious in urban areas, less.
10. Struggling with flood
You should not raise the floor in the bathroom and toilets: water tends to flow down. And if in your absence, God forbid, burst pipe or crane may suffer parquet flooring, laminated flooring, furniture, neighbors... to Prevent this problem is easier than to solve it: make a small nut. If the accident is small (for example, a leaky valve), and the seams around the perimeter sealed hermetically, this reservoir will be filled no earlier than 12 hours - the man comes into the tub, on average, every 4-6 hours, so most likely, before the flood will not come.
And last: don't forget that the toilet is not just you.
If you started remodeling, make sure that the bedroom was not next to the neighbor's bathroom. Noise lander water will be for you is hardly the most pleasant tunes. Although one of my friends I consoled myself with the fact that this is the most alive "natural" sound among technical city noises.
