Characteristics of typical houses
In the time of Khrushchev, construction materials were quite saved on building materials. The goal was to build a house as quickly as possible, and the comfort of future tenants was not taken into account at all. That is why apartments in these houses are small and close. They have several distinctive characteristics that are important to consider.
- Little living area
- Low ceilings
- Adjacent rooms
- Toilet and bathroom are often combined and very small
- Tiny kitchens
- Bad soundproofing characteristics
Standard Planning Treşdis
With a planned redevelopment of the 3-room Khrushchev, you must thoroughly explore all the details of your housing, so as not to make mistakes. In order to assess the amount of work work on them, it is necessary to determine the type to which your apartment belongs.
- One room is big, and 2 are very small.
- All rooms are small, 2 rooms are adjacent.
- Residential rooms are located in different parts of the apartment. Usually they are located in different sides of the corridor. All three rooms have separate entrances and adjacent to one corridor.
It is accepted that in the largest room there is a living room for the general collection of the whole family.
Rooms are smaller in the bedroom and children's bedroom.
There is a pleasant addition to the three living rooms, where you can store both shopping facilities and outerwear with shoes.
Redevelopment options for three-room Khrushchev
When preparing for repair, consider that all the walls that are inside your housing are not carriers - with rare exceptions. Therefore, they can be demolished and again erected in accordance with your idea.There are two main options for these capital work:
- Transform a trend to a large studio, removing all the walls.
- Partially combine the square.
We will tell more.
We combine the kitchen and living room
An option that meets most often is the combination of the kitchen area with the living room. Upon completion of all the works you will be able to accommodate a bar rack or dining table for a large family.
In this case, you need to think about the design in advance so that the kitchen headset is combined with the recreation area. In addition, zoning is still needed. It can be carried out with the help of flooring or ceilings.
It is important to provide for the installation of a powerful exhaust that will help avoid the spread of smell during cooking.
Bathroom expansion
Plus the kitchen and living room also becomes the expansion of the bathroom area due to the already non-functional passage in the dining area. However, it should be borne in mind that at the expense of residential premises this space cannot be increased because it does not meet the declared sanitary standards.
If the combination of the kitchen and the living room did not freed the corridor, or it is not at all, then it can be increased in other ways.
- Replace the shower bath
- Install a narrow sink
- Upon abundance in the kitchen, transfer the washing machine there
Room insulation
If a whole family lives in Treshka, then the rooms associated with each other deprive people of personal space.To make them separate, partitions are completely demolished between them and are re-born, however, taking into account the fact that the side of them will be a corridor with separate entrances.
Increase space using the balcony
You can expand the room not only at the expense of other residential premises, but also at the expense of the balcony. However, it is very important to warm it carefully.
First you need to make brickwork for the base under the windows, if necessary, pave the insulation and sew the wall with plasterboard. Paul can also be insulated with an adjustable electrically heating. Then install reliable double-glazed windows that will not pass the cold air.
It is such a preparation of a living space that will make it not only spacious, but also comfortable for life.
Coordination of Redevelopment
Redevelopment of a 3-bedroom apartment in Khrushchev requires careful preparation of documents. Therefore, before you begin to repair the repair work, we advise you to provide a prepared scheme for changes to the management company for approval and then to other services.When drawing up a plan, you must immediately take into account that it is impossible to combine the kitchen and the living room if you have a gas stove. Here you have to choose one of two: or install the electrical cooking panel, or split the space by a small partition.
It is impossible to transfer the bathroom to another space because it can disrupt waterproofing, as well as cause problems with water supply around the house.
Creating the right interior
How do you place the interior should be thought out on a par with a redevelopment project, because in small apartments each item is of great importance.
Style
The most important parameter in the interior of the residential premises in Khrushchev is a functionality. Baroque or classic styles because of their pompousness here will clearly be inappropriate. Therefore, we advise you to issue your housing in minimalist style.
It is characterized by simplicity, abundance of light shades and scattered light.
High-tech will become another suitable design direction. It is distinguished by the clarity and severity of lines, the abundance of shiny and glass surfaces and restrained tones.
Both styles imply the use of modern technologies, zoning the territory and the installation of transformable furniture, which will not only save space, but will allow it to operate it correctly.
Wall decoration
Warm shades and bright colors always visually bring objects and make them more. This must be considered when buying paint or wallpaper.
We advise you to make a choice in favor of light tones that fill the room with air and visually expand the space. In addition, it is possible to extend the room using mirrors installed on one of the walls.
Flooring
If during the repairs after removing the old coating, you saw the onset of the main floor, then it is worth replacing it, since the service life of such a tree explicitly has expired.
In a large studio, you can use a variety of coatings. The warmest and cozy laminate will be. If the heating system was carried out on the floor, then you can put the tile.
When divided into individual zones, any of these materials will also be appropriate. Choose bright shades that are combined with walls and furniture.
Ceiling design
The choice of ceiling coating is an important part of the repair work. Due to the fact that the height in the Khrushchevka is small, to this case it is necessary to come neatly.
Large attachments and drywall boxes can greatly lower the ceiling and make rooms very close. Therefore, it is better to use the ceiling tile, paint or light wallpaper for finishing. However, if you wish around the ceiling perimeter, you can make a small protrusion, where the lighting is hideing.
In addition, visually increase the space will help the mirror in the center of the ceiling. Its framing can be performed using stucco, which will give the interior an additional highlight.
Lighting
The light always visually expands the space, but the wires will not decorate any room. Therefore, think in advance where you will have lamps to immediately embed them into the wall.
