Is it possible to make europery in ordinary apartment
What is EuroVushka and what are the planning
The kitchen-living room form can be different: with a pocket-dock for cooking, in the form of a rectangle, with two or one large window. There is usually no separate corridor or it is very small. In particular, due to this, an increase in area is achieved. The bathroom can be both separate and combined.
There are projects with loggia and pantry. Such housing is quite convenient and becomes a profitable acquisition, if there is not enough money for the purchase of doubles. The photo is an example of the combined kitchen-living room.
Now that you know what Evrodvushka is, let's talk more about its advantages.
Pluses of Eurodwok and to whom they fit
Such planning has three indisputable advantages.
- The cost is lower than that of full-fledged two-bedroom apartments by 10-30%, depending on the class of real estate (than it is higher, the smaller the difference with the usual housing). The price reduction is achieved by reducing the area. But since the space is well thought out, this minus is often impaired.
- The kitchen-living room usually occupies most of the room, which means it can make an interesting design with original zoning.
- The room is greater than the standard odnushka. The whole family will fit the spacious living room and no one will interfere with each other. It is easy to organize a personal space for a stupid child or his parents.
Such modern housing will be convenient for people of any age, not interested in a separate kitchen (a little space is usually allocated under this zone). It is suitable for couples with very young children. Under the nursery can be left the bedroom, and in the living room there is a folding bed with a niche under things, or to extinguish the corner for a bed of shirma. We picked up a few photos for example.
Cons Evrodvushki
One of the advantages of layout becomes its main minus.
- Fragrances from cooked food can be absorbed into upholstered furniture. It will take a good extract.
- Most often, the kitchen area is located on the far from the window of the corner. This means that there will be only artificial lighting. From him can be tired of vision, you will have to install additional backlight.
- Full, isolated the second room is difficult to do - usually it turns out only zoning space. Another output is a plasterboard wall, but it takes a lot of space, and the square is not always large.
- The work of the washing machine, blender or other household appliances will interfere with a good rest. You need to either come up with this, or choose the most silent technique.
- There may be problems with the search for a single style for all functional zones.
- The bedroom is usually very small and only a bed, a wardrobe and a dressing table fit in it.
- It is necessary to carefully refer to the purity of the working table and dining table. The slightest disorder will create an impression of an unobed apartment as a whole.
The layout will not suit people who are important or a large kitchen, a spacious bedroom, the presence of a corridor. Otherwise, this format is more functional than the usual oddness, as you can make a second living room - albeit not completely closed.
Planning and Design Options
We have already found out what Evodvushka is, and now we will tell about planks with the photo and how best to equip such an apartment to correct its disadvantages.How to organize space in the kitchen-living room
The classic form and placement of furniture is not always relevant in a similar room. For example, in a small space of 20-30 m, it is desirable to choose a compact kitchen set, and the recreation area and cooking to distinguish between the bar. It can be combined with a dining table. Pay attention to G- and P-shaped countertops, sofas and cabinets.
The island rack is suitable only for squares from 40 sq.m. Convenient when there are shelves under the kitchenware and products. If you position all the wall standard lockers, there will be almost no free space. The room will seem cluttered.
Save the area will help suspended shelves, built-in household appliances. For visual expansion of space, designers advise to use light shades, mirrors, glossy ceiling, light partitions.
If in one of the rooms there is a warmed balcony, it can be adapted under the office or lounge zone. Even 3 square meters are easily transformed into a cozy corner with an angular furniture, a low table, shelves and indoor plants. A bedroom or game children is placed on a large loggia.
How to zonail the kitchen-living room
- Small stands, sofa, racks.
- Beautiful curtains.
- Sliding doors.
- Narrow shelves with books or different trifles.
- Selected by color or wall material. For example, in the Loft style one of the walls are separated by brick or "under the brick".
- Lighting. In suspended and stretch ceilings embedding lamps at different levels. Over the bar stand and dining table you can hang chandeliers on long cords.
- Podium. The kitchen is lifted over the rest of the room or hide the drawing beds into it.
- Flooring. The floor next to the kitchen head, the washing is separated by a more wear-resistant material.
- Glass opaque or carved wooden screen. They look beautiful and do not occupy a lot of space.
Often the owners want to separate the deaf wall of the living room area from the kitchen. Theoretically, it is possible, but then the apartment will become less convenient. Lost Spacious, which is inherent in the layout of the Eurodwok, in the kitchen zone there will be very little light and air. Therefore, the listed examples are the optimal version of zoning.
How to organize space in the bedroom
Here you will have to be content with a small - bed or sofa, a mirror with a toilet table, a wardrobe, hinged shelves, bedside tables with lamps. If you need to fit two or more children, pick up convenient two-storey or corner beds with niches under things, sofa. Save place folding tables or countertops combined with windowsill.
What style of choose
Avoid elements of the classics (stucco, dear furniture upholstery, gilding) - It does not tolerate cramped premises. Also not always appropriate interiors fusion, eclecticism. Owners of small apartments designers recommend paying attention to several styles:
- Minimalism. Key elements - transformer furniture, many glass and plastic, simple forms, monochrome coloring with the addition of blue, brown.
- High tech. Glossy surfaces, abundance of white, cream, beige, dairy colors helps to expand the space. Usually there are no or very few decorations in such housing. One or two posters on the walls, hours or small indoor plants on the tables.
- Provence. If the soul requires romance and rustic interior. The only one of the listed interiors is implied by the mandatory use of the decor.
- Scand. Open storage systems, uncomplicated patterns, abundance of white, gray, beige, blue, comfortable trivia, visual lightness, small loss, natural materials.
- Vabi Sabi, Japanda. Such interiors characterizes simplicity, a large amount of empty space, natural textiles, ordered storage, soft scattered light, minimalist household items and natural imperfections of furniture (coarse stone, rubbing, rust, chips).
Is it possible to make an eurodow from ordinary apartment
Remove the walls will be far from every housing. This desire often arises from the owners of Khrushchev, where the living room goes into the kitchen. To find out whether the redevelopment is possible in your case, you need to contact the BTI for the technical plan of the room and to the local self-government body with a sketch of what you want to remake. The demolition of the septum between the room and the balcony also needs to be coordinated, and the transfer of the bathroom and the sinks in the kitchen over long distances is not possible by safety.
