If there are no prospects( in the foreseeable future) somehow to change the housing conditions for the better, then such a reworking of the existing housing is the best option. As a result of redevelopment, 2 small rooms are obtained, each of which can be arranged differently, depending on for what purposes they will be intended. What do you need to know when thinking about the possibility to change the appearance of your apartment?
- In it, you can do anything( in terms of changing the layout), if all the activities carried out do not affect the bearing structural elements.
- If this is due to just such a need, then this issue requires an official agreement. How to do this, who to contact, we have already written, and if you open this page, you will receive exhaustive information.
And in this article I'll tell you about the ways in which you can make a redevelopment without bringing it to the attention of the supervisory organizations without any negative consequences for themselves.
We will consider several possible options, but it should be noted that one-bedroom apartments are different. It all depends on which house we live in. One can be small, 30 square meters, and the other is quite spacious( there are 45 and 55 m² each).From this, mainly, and depends on how the concrete "architectural" plan of the owners will be implemented. But you can not discount the relative location of windows and doors, as well as the configuration of the room - rectangular elongated it or closer to the square.
Basic rules
- Closer to the window is the living room.
- Bedroom - on the "second" plan.
- Built-in wardrobes-pantries are dismantled and attached to one of the "new" rooms. If necessary, they can be "revived", for example, by fencing the corner with a screen.
- In the presence of a balcony( loggia) it is recommended to glaze it, warm it, hold a light and use it as part of a common space.
- Use "storeyed" designs: shelves, assemblies from shelves. The lack of space horizontally must be compensated for by its rational use "in height".
By the way, they can be the same, and different. You can connect a kitchen with one of them, or you can have a balcony. For example, removing the window frame and turning the window sill into a decorative table. We will not impose our options, as this occupation is meaningless. Everyone has his own view of any problem.
Than to separate rooms
- Wall-story.
- Closet compartment. The most convenient design is with doors opening on both sides.
- Carrying frame( metal profile) + sheets of gypsum board( plywood, chipboard, etc.).
- Curtain with curtain under the ceiling.
- Sliding screen.
Many apartments have walls made of plasterboard. They themselves are not carriers, but the racks are in question. Therefore, without touching the "sidewalls", you can dismantle these sheets and connect the kitchen with a common room. Then, already in fact, it becomes more clear how to complete the redevelopment, where to install the partition?
What to take into account
- How to arrange an opening( passage) between rooms: center, left or right?
- With what intensity and with what appliances should the premises be illuminated? It is unlikely that the bedroom will need the upper( under the ceiling) light. But if it should be in both rooms, you will have to build a new line of electrical wiring.
What can not be done
- "Transfer" to other rooms a kitchen and a bathroom to use these rooms for other purposes. There are certain sanitary norms that can not be violated.
- To change the configuration of general engineering communications, put its shut-off valves and so on.
- Independently to re-install the gas equipment.
By the way, some people do the redevelopment not only because of the limited funds, which does not allow them to buy an apartment with a larger "quadrature".Buy something you can, but where? And if you want to live here, in your "own" quarter, in "your" yard? Some "reshaping" of living space - than not a solution to the problem, if it's not in "m²", but in the number of rooms?
