If you are thinking about moving to a new home or about significant changes in the same place, then questions such as the layout of the room, kitchen, bathroom and other premises will be especially relevant for you.
The ability to think over and change the configuration of the premises gives an additional degree of freedom and room for creative flight. This option can be in two cases: when it comes to a new apartment with an open layout, or when there is an opportunity and need to change the old layout. If you are a happy owner of an apartment, at the time of delivery of which there are only load-bearing and self-supporting structures, then the entire responsibility for the layout, and, consequently, for the convenience of subsequent operation, lies with you. Everything needs to be thought out in the smallest details and details. It is necessary to make a design project, and for this it is easiest to contact a specialist. The following are general guidelines.
Planning a room is a responsible matter, starting from the configuration itself and ending with the choice and arrangement of furniture. The room can be of complex shape - it is not necessary to be tied to the generally accepted rectangle and square. But in general, the figure should tend to be equilateral. That is, the width is approximately equal to the length. A square-shaped room is perceived much more pleasant than an elongated one. Furnishing it is much easier than a room resembling a wagon. The layout of the room is considered unsuccessful if the sharp corners of the walls “look” inside the room. If you want to get the original configuration, then avoid angles less than 90%. In this case, it is better to resort to rounded shapes of walls and other building envelopes.
If we are talking about a room with a fixed wall configuration, but the task may become somewhat more complicated. This is especially true for small-sized or uncomfortable-shaped rooms. Often the stumbling block is the layout of a small bathroom. These premises, designed in Soviet times, and we are often talking about "Khrushchev", do not meet modern requirements and standards. How to solve the issue? Most often they resort to combining a bathroom, which somewhat increases the usable area. Sometimes the bathroom is expanded due to the kitchen or even the corridor. If you do not dream of a jacuzzi and intend to leave the bathroom in the same framework, then there are options too. First, don't try to fit everything in it. Install the washing machine in the kitchen, do not clutter up the already cramped bathroom with additional sanitary appliances, equipment, etc. In addition, you can use visual effects to expand the space - install a large mirror,use light colors in the design, do not hang bulky shelves - narrow and long ones are better.
A separate topic is the layout of a dorm room. Here the main goal is to achieve functional zoning. To do this, you can use not only furniture, screens, false walls, etc., but also use the color and texture of finishing materials.
Designing a room is a fun and creative activity. Approach this issue with all responsibility - and the result will give you real pleasure!
