50 ideas for repair: how to equip an apartment and a house in the photo

Each of us has his own understanding of comfort, and this feeling is absolutely independent of square meters. But nevertheless, specific recommendations on space adaptation will help to successfully correct perimeter flaws, and give each meter functionality.

In this regard, it is worth learning the rationality of the Japanese and their virtuosity in the ergonomic layout of objects. They reject high backs of furniture, bulky objects, extra attributes, heavy layering of curtains, replacing them with convenient blinds, panels of the same name or roll curtains, manipulating the lifting mechanism with the flow of light.

Creative ideas available for implementation in different apartment formats will help to insure in our own experiments and help create optimal comfort. Until it comes to practice, it’s better to start with a detailed plan and sketching. At the initial stage, the geometry of the house should be of interest: height and width, the presence of a niche, doors, communication paths. The next level is assigned to geography - you need to draw up a "map" of the location of interior objects.

Niche format

Any design should have a focal point - an architectural accent or a group of elements requiring stylistic support. In this role, panoramic windows, columns or antique furniture that define the concept can play. Based on the point of attention, a designer chain is built of decorative links that require expression through colors, decoration, furniture, and attributes.

It is not at all necessary to arrange a storage room for unnecessary things under the stairs of a two-level house, as well as to re-exploit the idea of Harry Potter's relatives about arranging a bedroom for a child. The use of universal drywall will translate any sketches into practical reality. In a combination of beautiful finishes and local highlights, any idea claims to be original.

A niche can not easily diversify the interior, but fulfill the dream of a personal account with a library, become a place for a wardrobe, a working corner of a schoolboy or a playroom for a baby. The purpose primarily depends on its location relative to the front door. In the perimeter of the corridor, unclaimed space will be an argument in favor of the equipment of cabinets and racks.

Uniqueness in the design of a niche can be achieved with exquisite stained-glass panels. They can serve as a fake or decorate the entire opening with a glass panel. The fragile structure is also successfully installed in a blind or through space under the stairs. The functionality of the lower span depends on the purpose and installation method. The ability of a decorative door to easily slide along the profile will cover the contents of the wardrobe and elegantly decorate the hallway. Continue what you started and rhyme the windows in unison with a colorful variation. It is appropriate to duplicate the original on glass or choose Roman curtains to match the mosaic panel.

There are many ways to equip wardrobes with asymmetric verticals. In the popular version, shelves are mounted between two supports, leaving the middle for an ironing board. Often a built-in closet with roller drawers is organized for convenient operation. However, if you have other plans regarding the monopoly of things under the stairs, why not transfer the storage system to the bedroom? We borrow experience from the Japanese, who prefer to pack things under the floor, and we will correct the idea in our own way. As a basis in the technical part, we take an adapted system for moving boxes in grooves.

Equip bedroom

For a decent volume, a meter-deep module is enough. The small-sized version is not forbidden to be placed behind the high head of the bed, or to be equipped with roll-out hangers and sliding shelves on one side of the cabinet. In doing so, leave the right to habitual use of the upper sections with swinging facades. The constructive part has the right to independence and modification, and will be registered in any segment.

The height of the podium for the mattress is adjustable as desired. A high platform with numerous divisions in the form of a chest of drawers will save space twice.

Other schemes are possible, if we leave in the past stereotypes about the constant presence of furniture in the room. Build on the transformational capabilities of objects relative to the time of day, and appreciate the advantage of folding designs. During the day, the bed will be hidden by cabinet doors, and in the evening will provide a place of registration to a tired body. A wardrobe bed is a pleasant combination of ergonomics and comfort. The disadvantages include the modest capacity of the module, due to the number of shelves on one side.

The problem is solved by the inclusion in the system of multi-story whatnots, modestly squeezed into a free corner. If you go further, then the vertical space is allowed to "curtain" with wooden shelves with simple decor, in unison with vintage attributes. The "airy" entourage will take root in the country, and will make the company artificially aged surfaces.

In continuation of the topic, it is worth noting the consolidation of wood and metal. The minimalism of colors and textures is indicated by eco-style, the presence of handmade details, natural mats and slats, and is indicated by the philosophy of life. The asceticism of the bedroom is conducive to meditation and deep sleep.

The alternative design is noticeably more fun. Color combinations should not be chromatic, but the organizational part constructed according to the template. The large bedroom is likely to be divided into 2-3 segments without compromising comfort. For example, the presence of a shelving unit with shelves on one or both sides.

A long wardrobe a meter wide will allow solving the eternal problem of free storage of things, and will provide the opportunity to use the free plane from the back of the cabinet. An island under the office, with lines of narrow shelves around the perimeter, the presence of a table or the equipment of the window sill with a folding desktop, will definitely make life comfortable

The large surface of the partition will also serve as a canvas for the art wall. Apply a mural, hang a mosaic panel, organize a collage and attach posters - any idea has the right to materialize.

And what will happen if you rise higher? No, not on socks, but on the level of the second floor. The peculiarity of studio apartments is the arrangement of a berth in the loft style. Resting under the ceiling is just as pleasant as moving around a room free of furniture. If the upper space is cramped, take advantage of the technical ability of the mechanisms, and turn the sofa into a comfortable bed.

Informal solutions in the living room

In a project, it is better to immediately identify segmented areas based on the position of rationality. Today, designers in one living room manage to provide an office, a recreation area and even a berth. For passing combinations, you will have to use the living room meters or move the reception area into the kitchen, crossing it with a balcony. It is allowed to zone the room with mobile partitions, floor level, interior groups, light distributions.

Involving the area of walls greatly increases the resolution of the room. Shelves under the ceiling or book racks instead of walls are indicated not only by functionality, but also by magnificent decor. Their color can merge with walls and furniture, but the design looks very different in the contrasting design of the shelving in relation to the interior. Nevertheless, it is desirable that the upholstered furniture group clearly stand out against the pale background with a dark palette, and do not visually dissolve in the streams of light.

A little trick: the room will seem more spacious and taller if you leave the top shelf of the multi-tiered structure free. This is especially important for through cabinets, partitions.

If we are talking about hanging shelves and, in principle, non-standard solutions, pay attention to the height of the walls. You should choose flat shades, light decor or abandon the classic scheme in favor of spotlights. Lighting has one of the main roles in modeling the interior designer. The manipulation of light streams pouring from outdoor appliances, lamps mounted in furniture, wall lights, arches and a niche changes the impression of design.

The white perimeter, including the floor, will create the illusion of spaciousness. The dark contrast of the curtains will add clarity and volume, one of the walls will take on the frames in the paintings or a color stroke. And so that the design does not seem monosyllabic, the presence of the third tone does not hurt. Choosing long curtains with a smooth surface will enhance the sensation. It is quite acceptable that they coincide with the general background. With this decision, add more accessories, and drop the carpet with colorful prints on the floor.

European cuisine?

Designers in other countries solve the problem of small rooms in their own way. It is considered natural to equip a kitchen in niches or an alternative with built-in furniture. It is difficult to call a modest perimeter autonomous, since the corner has fences on 3 sides and an open passage to another room. Rather, it is a variant of zonal division, where the boundaries are indicated differently. Such kitchens take root in our place, and 5 square meters. m enough to organize a place for cooking. The layout tolerates any geometry and is linear, angle, and in fact - whatever.

The interior in more spacious rooms looks completely different. Modeling the kitchen interior is indicated by the priority of the choice of ready-made modules. Multivariance allows you to expand patterns of combinations, and combine objects relative to the perimeter. Closed high racks to the ceiling, with sliding doors, hide all the kitchen utensils and gadgets in the deep bowels, and delight the housewives with the radiance of empty surfaces.

Varying shapes and lines, you can find original combinations, and use color to combine them into an organic composition. Mirror panels of marble planes will create a sense of freedom, and in supporting beautiful facades and light, they will appear weightless.

Interesting layouts are aimed at maximum space savings, although at the same time, their constructive solution may seem unusual. In some trim levels, these are curly silhouettes of tables or protruding parts resembling wings. Such forethought provides comfort in the working triangle, where the upper plane is operated like an island. A similar variation, in addition to low shelves, it is permissible to use it for other purposes, and to integrate the working surface into the wall module.

Space for children

The goal of ergonomics in the nursery is to create a cozy place to relax and play. Active children do not have much space, and therefore it is better to free the floor from unnecessary items. It is acceptable to place the bed in a functional niche where the upper lines of the shelves support the symmetry of the side cabinets. Daylight will be replaced by evening adjustable lighting, attached to the top of the shelves.

Photo ceilings, so popular today, with stories chosen by the baby, will bring special energy to the room. In addition to aesthetic admiration, such decoration will successfully correct irregularities. By the correct arrangement of electrical circuits, it is possible to select the necessary zones. Multi-colored lights, relative to the time of day and bad weather, will change the mood.

Not all of us have enough imagination to hang beds. A swing for sleeping and a freely balancing chair are a great idea for a nursery. In this case, finish the given concept with the appropriate design. With thick ropes and Spartan beds, a marine theme will prevail with a dominance of wood attributes.

Models of ships, a yacht steering wheel, a guitar, starfish and garlands of shells, transparent vessels with colored stones and blue walls will create the necessary surroundings. However, it can be both more modest and more colorful, if we are talking about a place for the baby. Making a game attraction from a berth is not so difficult. Replace the ladder with a slide, and floor structures with suspended ones.

Create, and as a result of your efforts, the house will not be like the others!
