Redevelopment of one-room apartment in two-room

Reshaping a one-room apartment in a two-room apartment is possible in principle only if the room has a large enough area. The placement of small or medium size is divided into two tiny cells is absolutely expedient.

In addition, one must also take into account the condition that each of the resulting reconstruction rooms can not do without at least one window, since it should be illuminated by natural light and air-conditioned. Conclusion suggests itself - such a partition will most often become possible , if there are several windows in the room undergoing redevelopment.

Rules for redevelopment

When undertaking a global repair, which includes, among other things, redevelopment, it is necessary to familiarize yourself in advance with some of the prohibiting or requiring the approval of certain organizations by the moments. Similar procedures are related to the fact that the design and the communications of each house are calculated by the

in a specific manner, with the mandatory taking into account the strength properties of the materials and the construction parts, and having changed the individual elements in one apartment, the can seriously damage the entire structure.

So, it is strictly forbidden to carry out the following works and affecting the following structural elements of the building:

• Absolutely "untouchable" are external bearing walls that are not allowed to be dismantled completely or even partially.
• It is forbidden to expand the bathroom or toilet room behind the account of the kitchen or other rooms.
• A similar requirement also applies in the opposite direction - the extension of the kitchen room beyond the bathroom room is not permissible;
• It eliminates the use of planning, in which access to general communications will be blocked.
• For security reasons, there is a definitive ban on dismantling or closing the ventilation system in rooms where gas appliances are installed.
• In apartments with autonomous heating it is prohibited to place a gas boiler in the living rooms - it often happens if you want to combine the kitchen and the living room.
• It is inadmissible to transfer heating batteries from the room to a balcony or loggia;
• The host does not have the right to change the location of the gas pipes and, all the more so , common risers.
• It is not allowed to weight the load-bearing structures, for example, the erection of internal additional walls or partitions from a material such as reinforced concrete slabs ;
• You should never plan any re-planning of residential houses , officially recognized as emergency.

In order for to drastically change the layout of an apartment, if it does not fall under the above-mentioned situations, it will be necessary to obtain a permit that can be given after full coordination with the relevant organizations. Such changes can be:

• Extension of the room area behind the account of loggias, by of their association.
• Coordinated with the relevant gas supply organizations and carried out exclusively by their specialists work on the transfer of gas mains and devices.
• Partial dismantling of internal bearing walls, for example, the device in them of door openings .
• Constructive changes in the structure and type of floors( with the exception of decorative coatings).

Based on from , the following preparation steps will be required before starting work:

• The first is the compilation of 's own " hint " of the project of future redevelopment.
• This draft version should be coordinated in the local architectural body, where the experts will determine whether in principle deviations from the standards are possible in the project created by the apartment owner. The result should be a ready-made project based on professional architectural calculations of .
• Then goes to filing a package of documents to legitimize the project. To do this, you will need documents for ownership of the housing, a technical passport for the apartment, a statement from the owner and an already agreed project;
• Only after the official permission is received, it is possible to carry out the reconstruction of the apartment. At the same time, unauthorized deviations from the legalized project are strictly forbidden.

It is necessary to say about the possible negative consequences of unauthorized work:

• First of all, the probability of damage to one of the elements of the bearing structure is very high, and subsequently - even its collapse.
• The risk of emergency or even catastrophic situations associated with natural gas, water supply and increases. The level of security of living not only in a single apartment is sharply reduced, but also in to all buildings.
• If an illegal re-planning is detected, even if it did not lead to emergency situations, the owner of housing faces a very considerable fine in monetary terms.
• Transactions with such real estate are becoming impossible, since all is equal to it is necessary for to pass all instances on legalizing alterations or to return the apartment to its original state.

Thus, everything can end with expensive repairs to the walls or floors of the house . not only in their own apartment, but also in their neighbors' apartments or in the common areas of the building.

Without coordination, can carry out the work of , which will not affect the design of the structure. It can be installation of light partitions, glazing and warming of logs and balconies , change of the location of sanitary elements within the bathroom.

Variants of replanning a one-room apartment

So, if the desire to reschedule an apartment to your taste is, the general volumes of works do not cross the boundaries of categorical prohibitions, do not frighten the prospect of rather tedious and costly design and coordination procedures,possible options.

If you correctly draw up a project for replanning a one-room apartment and realize it, you can get more comfortable and comfortable for all family members of the room.

Usually the question of the need to have a two-room apartment appears as the grows in the child , as he needs a separate space from the common room for playing, studying and relaxing. The room for the toddler must be warm , light, - as well as well ventilated.

However, do not forget that for adults, too, requires a comfortable room. Since one room in a standard apartment is divided into three for , all will not work, so will have an common room to do a multifunctional one, which includes the functions of both the living room and the bedroom.

In the this case shows the only variation nt for the I'm quite a small room with one window. To make the separation more closed, similar to separate rooms, you can use sliding partitions.

The area of ​​the children's room will be separated not only by the partition, but also by a higher level of the floor, in the thickness of which it is possible to place soundproofing and warming material.

In living room-bedroom , of course, will have to abandon excess furniture and decorative accessories, but at the same time it is possible to install everything you need for sleep and rest.

It should be noted that this division of the premises does not replace a two-room apartment, as one of the rooms, one way or another, will be a through passage, and this is not quite a convenient option. However, do not forget that in some two-room apartments there are initially combined rooms.

Another option for separating the bedroom from the common room can be a mobile partition that completely closes and separates the rest room or the nursery.

This partition is suitable for for a wide room where you can elegantly close one of the corners. Of course, in this transformation of the apartment also has its drawbacks.

And one of them - is the impossibility of making a complete soundproofing. But a similar problem can be solved to some extent if instead of thin walls we use cabinets that are high up to the ceiling. They can be sewn from the inside or from the bedroom with a thin soundproof material, which will significantly reduce the sound fluctuations from the inside. As noise isolator it is recommended to use environmentally friendly cork plates, which, in addition to the characteristic sound-absorbing effect, perfectly decorate the back wall of the cabinet. Moreover, without cabinets in the house all can not do without.

. If you have a wide loggia in a one-room apartment, the problem is solved very easily, since you can make a small but completely separate room from the from .Naturally, will have to make a lot of efforts to make the cold loggia become a cozy office or even a bedroom, but the result of these processes will please and surprise with originality. But the main is that the apartment will expand into several precious square meters.

To make a room from a balcony, it is necessary to install double-glazed windows and very well to insulate this room. lath is arranged on the floors, between the blocks of which two layers of insulation and film of vapor barrier are laid. The entire -mounted system is closed by with gypsum-fiber slabs or plywood. On the plywood it will be good to lay the infrared heating film , which can also be fixed on the walls, after they are insulated with one of the selected thermal insulation materials.

In addition to , such a heat insulation system, there are also other variants of - . The blessing in the building stores is a large assortment of nt pr induction of this direction.

If the infra-red is not suitable for walls, it is possible to use - flat electric convectors, they will quickly heat the room and will not occupy much space.

The loggia can be done differently by combining the with its with the room and removing the lower part of the wall, if this option is approved by the architectural organization. But if such project is not will pass , you can simply remove the window frames and the doors to the loggia, after its insulation, and the wall area left after dismantling the window, decorate it as a decorative pedestal .

Further, it will be possible to install a partition with fastenings of the door-compartment, which, if necessary, can be opened or closed.

The advantage of this solution is that the heat from the room will heat up and the loggia, but the radiators, of course, in this case the will have to increase the in size.

Having one large room, the problem can be solved quite simply. The room is divided light partition in half or in smaller and larger rooms.

This wall can be quickly and simply constructed of metal profiles and two layers of drywall, between which mineral wool or - foam is laid, these materials and create a good sound insulation for the room. A door frame and a door are installed in the ready partition, which also should not be made of heavy building materials. Of course, the rooms will not have a large area, but the residents will have the opportunity to get a place where you can retire and relax.

Another is an option for dividing a large room with one window into two parts using a partition, when the bedroom is assigned the that section of the room that does not have a window. Such an output of - is quite acceptable, but it is not ideal, because in this room remains without natural light and open air access, so for a children's room such a variation nd is whether is suitable .If the apartment is in a brick house, you can consult the designers of houses of this series on the possibility of device in separated room still one, at least small window. Independently to carry out such reconstruction is unacceptable, especially if the apartment is located on the one of the lower floors.

If you choose one-room , you should immediately consider possible re-planning and choose variant of a room with two separate windows, then there will be no big problems with the reconstruction. Lightweight , a non-overlapping wall, installed between windows, will turn one room into two isolated rooms.

This partition, if desired, can be easily dismantled - it does not damage the bearing walls and does not affect the neighbors' apartments, so its can not be legalized. But, if housing will be decided to sell, then will have to return the apartment to the original project.

The next possible project for redevelopment may be the option where a large living room separates the plasterboard wall on metal profiles a small area, and the rest of the living space is combined with the kitchen. But this solution is possible with only if if the wall between the room and the kitchen is not a carrier, and if allows it to do the original architectural layout, that is the kitchen borders the wall with the living room.

In the scheme shown in the diagram, the living room to expand the open area is also combined with the hallway, so the apartment visually looks more spacious.

may well suffice. Combining a room with a kitchen, can be completed with an unfinished wall, but with a decorative walkway. In this case, all is equal to a part of the living room and the kitchen will look like a single space, which will allow to separate the area of ​​the living space for the device of a small separate or combined room. In the this case should also be guided by the layout of the apartment.

In conclusion is a useful advice for choosing an apartment. Any young family should think about it sooner or later, but there will necessarily be a kid for whom it will be necessary to organize a corner, or better - a separate room. It's good if will have the opportunity to move to housing for a larger area, but, unfortunately, this dream does not always come true so soon. Therefore, , you need to proceed from what is available today, but in advance provide for the fundamental possibility of converting a one-room apartment into a two-room apartment.

When choosing housing , you need to carefully study the layout of the apartment, and determine the location of the load-bearing walls and built-in partitions, which is permissible to dismantle or make in them the door .And, of course, the ideal option will be the presence of two windows in the room.

Having provided all these nuances, not the it is necessary for to puzzle over the reconstruction, as it will be quite easy to solve this problem.
