Gone are the days when one house was completely like another. Today, potential owners can not only buy ready-made housing, but also order a modern house project that will fully meet their tastes and wishes. Creation of projects and housing construction involved in many firms and companies. The offers are diverse: from a classic village hut to a hi-tech house or even in an exotic direction. The common thing with such buildings is often only one: a preliminary design of the house. Such a package of documents is required to
obtain a building permit. One of the most popular in Russia today is the American-style house.
What is an American home project?
On the one hand, of course, such a concept is rather vague. America is huge and diverse, the houses in it are all different. What do specialists with that name mean? On the other hand, the term has a specific meaning. The project of an American house is a sketch of a frame building, made taking into account the main American requirement: the functionality of all rooms. Typically, these houses consist of two floors. The first is the hall and living room. Often the latter is integral with the kitchen and dining room. Such a stylistic solution allows you to maximize the use of space and not create unnecessary corridors and transitions from room to room. The design of the American house takes into account the absence of corridors, and the need for a large number of different niches, built-in closets. On the ground floor, in addition to the living room, dining room and kitchen, there is usually a study, a hall in which the whole family gathers, sometimes the master bedroom. Mandatory availability of 1-3 bathrooms. On the second - a bedroom for each family member, guest room, perhaps - a library or an additional room for work. Each bedroom is equipped with its own bathroom and bath, or at least a shower room. The main feature of the American home is functionality, spaciousness, comfort.
The project of the American house in the light of different architectural styles
American homes are being built using frame-shield technology. It is convenient in that the buildings are durable, warm, very inexpensive. Their erection of time takes a minimum. But in architectural terms, such structures can be very, very peculiar.
- Colonial style . It means gently sloping four-pitched roofs, several fake or real gables, massive columns in the corners of the house or on balconies and terraces. The windows in such houses are necessarily with wooden shutters, and the architecture of the building is simple and strict symmetry.
- Popular bungalows around the world. These one-story low buildings are a great option for those who cannot or do not want to climb stairs.
- Ranch In such buildings, the roof is necessarily gable, with one or two gables. The abundance of natural materials perfectly hides the fact that, in fact, one-story buildings in the ranch style belong to the economy class. The houses are cozy, inexpensive, comfortable and beautiful.
- Modern style . He does not have a clear description. It can be a loft and hi-tech, modern and classic. The main thing in such a house is to observe the required number of rooms. Everything is permissible in architecture and decoration: glass and wood, metal cladding and carved decorations, balconies and attics. The project of an American house, no matter in what style it is executed, is an excellent option for building reliable, but inexpensive housing.
