It is very important to plan the interior space of residential premises in advance. The first place here is the convenient location of residential and utility rooms, a bathroom, corridors, recreation areas. A serious planning approach helps create a comfortable environment for every member of the family.
Guiding principles
The main principles according to which the internal space of a private house should be planned are reasonableness and common sense, analysis of the individual needs of residents, possible prospects for the reorganization of the living space.
An important aspect of planning remains the hospitality of homeowners. It is one thing to lead a measured, calm life away from the bustle of the city. It is quite another thing to regularly accept friends, acquaintances, business partners in your own estate.
In order to translate ideas into reality as soon as possible, experts recommend that they personally perform a small sketch of the future layout. In this case, it is desirable to note the most important points that must be implemented in the future layout.
Among other things, when planning the interior space of a room, it is worth carefully considering any connections that turn out to be convenient when moving from one room to another. The above diagram is called a functional planning program. Its creation is considered the first requirement of most modern architects and interior designers to the owners of the building.
Living room
Many experts believe that the minimum size of the living room should be at least 18 m 2 . The optimal area of this room is considered to be about 30 m 2 . Only in this case there will be enough space in the living room for a convenient arrangement of furniture, organization of feasts, reception of guests and ordinary relaxation in the circle of a large family.
Bedrooms
They plan the interior space of a residential building, taking into account the number, area and location of the bedrooms. A competent layout of the bedrooms contributes to the creation of an individual space in which you can comfortably retire.
Optimal for any bedroom is an area of about 10 m2. The most comfortable area, given the presence of a large sliding wardrobe, a double bed, and walk-in cabinets, is an indicator of 15-16 squares.
Initially, it is recommended to organize separate sleeping rooms for each, even the smallest member of the family, as over time, additional expenses for the reorganization of these premises may be required.
If replenishment is planned in the family in the distant future, in this case, planning the interior space of one of the bedrooms initially stands under the office or other functional room. Having equipped the room taking into account the future redevelopment, after the birth of a child it can be easily converted into a nursery.
A bathroom
It is most convenient to have toilets, bathtubs or shower rooms close to the kitchen and bedrooms. Such premises are defined as the night and day zones in which residents spend the bulk of the day. And so the proximity of the bathrooms becomes very appropriate.
Halls and corridors
If we talk about the halls and corridors, then it is absolutely not recommended to make them too narrow. The internal space of such passage premises should be at least one and a half meters wide. A great idea is to combine the corridors with the living room when the room becomes a walk-through.
Rest zone
The presence in the house of such premises as a games room, a billiard room, a room with a home theater, among other things, becomes advisable only if it is truly justified. Otherwise, due to rare operation, such premises will only take away the extra valuable space of the house.
A great alternative is the organization of gaming and recreation areas as part of the living room. To do this, it is enough to perform competent zoning of the room, using the services of professional interior designers.
