Private houses can belong to various categories - from modest budget cottages to luxury villas in elite villages. If the first option gives priority to rationality and simplicity, then as income increases, the main focus is more on status and luxury. However, the main requirement for a house, regardless of its value, is always comfort.
House layout
Among all amenities, the main place is the arrangement of rooms. They are distributed according to their purpose. And their location in the house, size, connection with other rooms, verandas, corridors will depend on how rational the use of space will be.
The layout, which is the basis of the structure of the house, is laid at the design stage. Today you can choose a ready-made standard project among pre-developed options. This will significantly speed up and reduce the cost of the design process and will make it possible in the shortest possible time to implement ideas that are very close to the needs of the main part of customers of private homes.
Consider some recommendations for the location and layout of the house.
- It is recommended to position the house so that the wind blows into the slopes of the roof. This with a strong wind will reduce the resistance. In addition, rains will not flood the pediment. It is also necessary to take into account the terrain so that the house does not stand at the lowest and highest points. And you definitely need to know the direction of water movement, the type of soil and other features.
- When laying communications, it should be borne in mind that the drainage should take place under natural gravity and be discharged to a place permitted for this.
- Combine internal communications. The bathroom and kitchen are located in the adjacent rooms. This eliminates the need for additional pipes. Also take care to ensure a good outflow of water so that the sewage system can take such a quantity that it will fall into it when the dishwasher and washing machine are at the same time, as well as using a shower and bathtub.
Let's look at some examples of designing small, but very comfortable houses.
House plan 6 on 8
A very rational solution for suburban cottage construction and for conditions of very dense urban development. The house is freely located in small or narrow areas. Due to the small area such projects very in demand and have a relatively low construction cost. Inexpensive and simply built house allows you to relax comfortably in all seasons. A small family can live here permanently, for which you need to take care of a reliable connection of electricity and good communications. The plan of the house 6 on 8 can be implemented based on individual preferences.
In a small area you can place a kitchen, a large dining room and a bedroom. If the house is two-story, then on the second floor there is a dressing room, two large bedrooms, a balcony and a fireplace. In the plan of the house 6 by 8, you can include a bathroom with an area of 2.8 m 2 , which will be located under the stairs. The total area of the space will be 48 m 2 , and residential - 30.5 m 2 .
Another layout option: on the second floor to place two bedrooms, and on the first - only a very spacious living room, kitchen, bathroom, sauna. The construction of a house on this project is suitable for small families. The specified plan of the house 6 by 8 has a living area of 31.4 m 2 and a total area of 48 m 2 .
Layout of the house 6 x 9
The plan of the house 6 on 9 can be designed very rationally so that it has everything necessary for life. Design is more freedom. The rooms here are slightly larger than in the 6 x 8 house; a second floor or attic can be provided, which significantly increases the usable area. The plan of the house 6 to 9 can include a terrace or a veranda. The total area is 54 m 2 .
We give an example of the layout of a two-story house.
On the ground floor there is a terrace, a kitchen, a living room, a dining room and a bathroom. The combination and adjoining of rooms can be different. Alternatively, consider adjoining the kitchen to the living room or dining room.
On the second floor - 2 bedrooms and a hall.
Layout of the house 6 x 10
The 6 x 10 house is an excellent solution for all people who prefer not only to relax away from the bustle of the city, but also to settle here on an ongoing basis.
The plan of the house 6 to 10 may be as follows. On the attic floor to equip two comfortable bedrooms and one large room. From the porch there is an entrance to the veranda, to the left is a bathroom and a bathroom. In the center there is a hall from which a door leads to a spacious living room. To the right of the hall is the kitchen and dining room. The layout of the rooms is quite practical and does not contain unnecessary corridor rooms.
House plan 5 to 6
Despite the very modest dimensions of the house, on the ground floor you can arrange a fairly large kitchen area, necessary for every modern housewife, a living room, which, if desired, can be adapted to a living room or personal office. On the 2nd floor there are two bedrooms and 2 spacious rooms.
