Continuation of a story

Five-bedroom apartment with an area of 98.2 m2: as a result of repair work, the facade of the house built over the century ago, the historical appearance was returned

When laying parquet on large areas, it includes a compensation gap, without which the wooden floor, even with a minor change in linear dimensions as a result of temperature fluctuations, can not do

Through bivalve doors from the Spark collection (Longhi) with a silk cloth inside the glass inserts, sunlight across a small living room penetrates into a deaf corridor. The door in the bearing wall opposite the small living room leads to the guest bathroom. Permission to transfer the doorway in this place was obtained after long coordination

In the bedroom dark furniture colors wenge harmoniously combines with a large elegant pattern of silk curtains

The composition of ceiling and wall lamps Luceplan made an initially boring corridor light and friendly

Cabinet, designed for work and business meetings, is located next to the entrance door. The wishes of the owner regarding the decoration were to make this room comfortable and concise. Instead of a regular desktop, a countertop made by designer sketches was used. It rests on the slope, and on the other - on the lower shelves of the rack

Installation of dot luminaires Luceplan Square form caused serious problems. After all, the stretch canvas is too sensitive and when cutting holes with corners for embedded elements can be deformed. Therefore, I had to purchase lining under the color of the stretch, which allowed to cut "safe" round holes and keep the square shape of the lamps

The owners dreamed of a tropical soul. In order not to expose the floors with moisture, it was installed in an individually designed shower. There was no difficulty to sum up communication. In addition, the shower needed curtains and pallet

Plan before reorganization

Plan after reorganization

In the houses built more than a century ago, minuses from the point of view of living room more than the advantages. As a rule, in old apartments it is impossible to make a serious redevelopment. Anbor and the state of engineering communications cause problems with the installation of modern plumbing and electrical appliances. Advantages - in the location of such a house that gives rise to a sense of involvement in history not only specific square meters, but also the city as a whole.

Buy an apartment in the historic center of the city is not only prestigious, but sometimes quite exciting. Street repair, the owners did not expect them to study the history of the house in which the apartment is located. Analyzed the story of any little a century ago. During this time, the house was periodically rebuilt. Instead of the initial four floors, six. Sometime, respectable apartments turned into densely populated communals. Oleg and Svetlana's spouses acquired one of these seasured communal. To create accommodation with modern realities from the old apartment, I had to work hard. The first thing was developed redevelopment, taking into account the interests of all family members. The hostess wanted to have a comfortable ergonomic kitchen and a spacious living room. The owner was needed. Audate, living in another city, but from time to time visiting parents, it was necessary to allocate the room, which the rest of the time could serve as a small living room, and a guest room. But the weakness of interhesive floors and the presence of a carrier wall with a thickness of 0.6 m, separating the apartment into two unequal parts, did not allow radically to change the layout.

The representative area was distinguished by the long part of the apartment, where there were two tiny rooms and a kitchen. Surprisingly, for some reason the window in the kitchen was laid with bricks. Moreover, such a barbaric intervention in the layout, a long time has long been deprived of the kitchen of daylight, was approved in BTI plans! In essence, the owners had to ask the authorities to return the historical appearance to the facade of the house. The window was abandoned again, and now in the kitchen can be prepared with natural light. Its new space is designed in modern ergonomically. To the left of the window is the "Island" window, which performs the functions of the working surface, dining table and the decorative element, which provides separation of zones.

Ceiling as mirror

Over the zone of rest - dark brown gloss stretch ceiling. Due to the effect of reflection, the size of the room has become more complex and completed. The rich color is harmony with the tone of furniture, complementing the sophisticated cozy atmosphere. The stretch canvas were built into the liner design from plasterboard on a metal frame. To visually divide the zones, over the kitchen, the level of the ceiling is lowered by 25cm and has a cornese backlight. In addition to performing the decorative function, the ceiling plays the role of screen, behind which the air ducts of the supply and exhaust ventilation system, electrical wires and cables, curtain curtains are hidden.

Mysterious circumstances

In the house where the apartment is located, there are gas plates and an autonomous system of hot water supply from gas speakers. But during the time of utility life, the tenants of the apartment for some reason from gas refused and moved to electric plates and electric water heating. The current owners of the apartment quite arranged. Boilers responsible for heating water are installed in both bathrooms. The cooking panel is also electrical.

Interestingly, "riddles" remained not only from the former owners. So, at the end of the repair work, the hosts asked why in the opening leading from the corridor in the living room, between the parquet layers, a cork compensator passes, which is usually placed in the place of docking various properties of floor coverings, for example, parquet and porcelain stoneware- to prevent floor strain during seasonal Drops of temperature and humidity.

To shed light to an inexplicable fact, the architect contacted parquets, and they explained the situation. Always, when the parquet coating combines several rooms without separation by the impressions, the seam serves to compensate for technological errors. That is, when laying the parquet from the outer wall of the living room in the corridor and then in the bedroom, the laying line could well devale relative to the wall line. Therefore, the parquet began to lay at the same time in two rooms and, having come in the opening, the compensator was paced.

Symmetric living room

The area of the small living room increased due to the area of the adjoining office. Due to the location of the window openings, this simple intervention in the layout turned out to be problematic. A results in a small living room turned out to be two windows in the corners. To beat this moment, the emphasis was made on the symmetry: intensive in the center, and the wall oppositely accentuated by a pair of lamps.

Clean wallpaper

The walls of the corridor and bedrooms are estimated by ELITIS textile wallpaper (France) from the Fusion collection. Vih-fiber is a natural viscose, possessing good vapor permeability. The surface of the fibers is treated with a special coating that prevents pollution.

Fucked Indiana Jones

The door at the end of the corridor leads to the bedroom. Interestingly, during dismantling work, when numerous layers of old wallpaper and plaster removed from the walls, it was found that in the bearing wall, separating the bedroom and the kitchen-living room, before was the opening. It, as well as the window in the kitchen, in one time laid bricks. When the laying was disassembled, a shallow niche formed on the side of the bedroom, in which the dressing table and the reflex mirror (Italy) were perfect. So the "historical justice" was restored. Sleeping headset Veneran (Italy), consisting of a built-in wardrobe, a double bed and a pair of bedside tables, took the main part of the room.

The corridor was divided into sectors using decorative plasterboard arches on a metal frame. The thickness of the partitions was picked up so that the end of the openings could be cut niches for lamps.

As before, wood frames

The windows in the entire apartment were replaced with modern wooden with double-glazed windows. Ancient window openings did not differ in perfect forms. In order for the windows lines to be parallel facade lines (but not opening), a laser level was used. The accuracy of the device is 0.2-0.5mm / m, which is significantly higher than accuracy

Conventional construction level. Using the roulette, the laser level was placed the mounting points on the left and right. The frames fastened in the opening with metal plates and frame dowels. Speaks were flying.

Non-standard format

Entrance to the master bathroom is both from the bedroom and from a small living room, which is convenient not so much to the owners, how many of their guests. The room is decorated in contrasting dark and bright colors. The walls are posted by a ceramic tile of Nautilus (Emil Ceramica, Italy) of various formats, textures and colors. The multiplicity of the size of the tile (the length of all tiles is the same, and the width differs exactly 2 times) made it easy to make a layout. The essential task was concluded in the accuracy of the "betting" of the level, so that the rows of tiles are compared to the vertical line in the corners. Used tiled adhesive "Unice Plus" (Russia), designed to work on complex and old surfaces. The glue was imposed on the walls, and on the tile so that there was no emptiness.
