Designing a small apartment with zoning
To make a small one-room apartment in a comfortable and cozy house filled with air and space, you need to fantasize a little, show your design skills and start working with enthusiasm.
Five simple techniques for creating a small living space will reveal the secret of its ease and functionality. Suppose that it will be a house for a young girl. Plan of the apartment. Photo
Apply color zoning
Color - very strong design reception. When we get into a bright room, it seems that there is more space in it, light, purity. Here, even breathing easier and there is an "exacerbation" of a sense of optimism.
A light background of wall panels in combination with a light neutral floor give an additional expansion of space.
On the walls of a 1-room apartment bright drawings of plant themes. Stylized spreading trees optically increase the height of the ceiling and give the living room an extra volume, as if pushing the walls apart.
Yellow painted doors in blue, blue lakes look like a blue carpet and a rug at the door.
We seem to be in a fairytale, kind forest full of romance and inspiration.
Illusion of perspective and volume
It is difficult to find a more successful device for visually increasing the space of a small apartment, like putting mirrors in it. And if this is a large mirror, then the optical illusion will be especially successful.
In our small apartment with the help of a huge mirror from the floor to the ceiling it was possible to radically change the configuration of a tiny hallway. It does not look like a modest cot, but worthily continues the volume of the dwelling.
Successfully managed to expand the living space due to two tall, albeit narrow mirrors. They serve as additional sources of light, reflecting it from the windows. And the young mistress can always smile to herself, passing by.
Rounded forms of interior items soften the overall look, make it more feminine for the sake of the inhabitant of this corner.
There is another safe way to increase the volume of space in our apartment - the presence of transparent pieces of furniture.
Very successfully fit over the sofa wallpapers with a voluminous image of the clouds. Dreaming and "hanging in the clouds" like all the girls.
We place accents
In this small apartment there are no partitions, but functional zones are clearly marked. The relaxation area with a comfortable sofa is highlighted by a picturesque palace, the work area is a bright blue armchair, the dining and kitchen area is clearly marked with Roman curtains. Their brevity and severity are brightened by a cheerful coloring. Flowers attract attention and delight the look, but they look quite unobtrusive.
Very attractive slate above the dining table. Its black color emphasizes the freshness of the interior and successfully fits into the overall ensemble. You can use this subject in different ways. For example, change pictures and create a mood. And you can write different quotes or foreign words to train the maiden memory.
Functionality is the convenience of
All the furniture available in the apartment is as functional as possible. The capacious light wardrobes, located near the sofa, are comfortable and very roomy. Between them a large table hides, which can come in handy when visitors come.
Used for convenience and space above the sofa. Here are shelves, on which you can attach different little things, books or boxes with small items.
Even the space between the windows on the background of the slate was not left without attention. There nicely fit cute shelves, which solved the problem of a place for dishes. There was also a place for funny cacti. As a result - a positive corner with wildlife.
Small dimensions mask with the cunning
It's amazing, but even such a small bathroom does not seem dull and cramped. Here it was necessary to show a maximum of design tricks:
- instead of a large bath installed a shower;
- a transparent curtain did not take a centimeter of space;The
- tile on the floor was chosen light, and laid in a way that worked to increase the space;
- in the shower area on the wall is a cheerful small mosaic with a well thought out pattern, its brightness increases the space of the bathtub and even the entire apartment;
- for a small washing machine found a place under the sink, next to fit a comfortable bedside table.
Multicolored pens, bright mats, mirror with cheerful shelves have completed the overall composition of the sun bath.
Do not aim for large dimensions and many square meters of living space. Even from a small apartment you can create a stylish, wonderful place with an atmosphere of love, light and goodwill. Only good people will come to such a house.
