Design options for a two-room apartment p44t series
The houses of the P-44T and P-44K series are quite popular buildings that are being built on the site of the demolished five-story buildings. The number of floors in them is from 17 to 25, the number of entrances is 2-8. The attractiveness and popularity of this housing is also in the fact that it has loggias. With a reasonable approach, it is possible to turn them into a continuation of a living space or to arrange a separate functional space. For this reason, you should not start repairs without first developing a thoughtful design project.
An important point determining the design of a two-room apartment in the house of the P44T series is the redevelopment restrictions, since almost all the walls of the apartment are load-bearing. Violation of them is a danger not only to the owners, but also to residents of other apartments. However, despite all the restrictions, it is quite possible to equip a cozy and comfortable housing.
The design of a two-room apartment is quite simple, since a ready-made division of rooms is already available. No need to reinvent the “bike” with zoning. It is only important to consider how many people are in the family and what functional spaces are needed. As already mentioned, there is no need to discount loggia. There are 2 variants of “kopecks” in the houses of this series: “vest” and linear.
Linear
The apartment is called the “ruler” because all its windows face one side. The hallway is rectangular in shape, and the rooms fan-shaped depart from it. On the right is a large elongated room, the second - right. To the left is the bathroom, a little further - the kitchen. The advantages of this option include good lighting. The disadvantages are poor natural air circulation and a smaller area compared to the corner dvushki. The difference in footage is almost 10 "squares". At the same time, a linear apartment costs less than a "baby undershirt". By purchasing this type of housing in house P44, you invest in a solid, moreover, liquid, real estate. Everything rests against a relatively low price.
Swing type
There are 2 common options. From the end of the house are two-bedroom apartments with bay windows in the living room. They are a minority. There are options without a bay window. The peculiarity of the layout is that the hallway or hall is located in the inner corner. The difference from the linear apartment is that the rooms are somewhat more spacious. Due to the fact that most of the walls are load-bearing, a radical redevelopment of the home interior will not work.It is possible to make rooms more comfortable due to their functional filling. In the end apartments, experiments with zoning of furniture and (or) mobile partitions are possible.
First design option
This is a solution for a young childless couple. Perhaps someone is working from home, remotely. In this case, the traditional functionality of the rooms is maintained. Smaller per sq. m the room is reserved for the bedroom, a large living room. Here the owners will be able to arrange gatherings with friends. A large corner sofa with decorative pillows is appropriate in the hall. The corridor is separated from the living room by a deaf bar counter. It is convenient to place your home office on a glazed loggia.
Second design option
Variant of a cozy home for a couple with 2 children. It happens that there is no way to purchase more spacious housing, so you have to proceed from what is. In this case, the nursery is convenient to place in a larger room. A smaller space will serve as a bedroom for parents. The children's room can accommodate 2 beds, a wardrobe and a sitting area. The second desktop is advisable to take out on a warm loggia.
If one child is much older, it is advisable to purchase a sofa bed for him. In this case, you will save space, and the functionality and convenience of the beds will not be affected. It is better not to combine the bathroom to avoid the queue in the toilet and bathroom.
Third design option
The most popular designer repair for a family of 3 people, where the child goes to school or another educational institution. He needs a personal space with sleeping and working places, as well as a closet for things. In this case, the apartment turns out two separate bedrooms. A place for family gatherings is the kitchen. It is better not to combine the bathroom. In the bathroom, to save space, you can use not a bath, but a booth with a shower.
Should the bathroom and bathroom be combined?
In the houses of the P-44T series, the bathroom is separate.The exception is only one-room apartments. This creates certain difficulties in the design, as the premises are very tiny. Even when combined, the area of the premises is not more than 4.5 "squares". In addition, the ventilation duct “eats” part of the usable space in the toilet. The maximum bath size in length is 1.6 m, so some families prefer to completely abandon it by installing a shower. According to the designers, both options: combine the two rooms or leave everything as it was, have the right to life. It all depends on the wishes of homeowners. Consider possible solutions to the space.
Using a sliding door
The role of the partition is played by a sliding door. In this simple way, you get a “transforming" interior. Of course, this is a combined bathroom with a larger area than originally, but if necessary, it can be turned into a separate. Space for a large bath is clearly not enough, so it makes sense to replace it with a shower. If the partition and the door of the cabin are made in the same style, then the room seems more spacious.
Idea for a combined bathroom
The location of a hygienic shower with a tray next to the toilet will save space. Compared to a shower cabin, it is much simpler to mount the pallet. On sale there are models from different materials. The pallet is equipped with twisting legs, so there is no need to perfectly level the surface. It is important to correctly locate the drain hole.
Separate bathroom
It is not always possible to combine two rooms. In this case, in order to gain space, it is advisable to put a booth with a shower or bath parallel to the door. The plumbing layout is hidden behind the decorative screen. Since the rooms are not spacious, it is advisable to use the hanging design of the sink and toilet.
Interior with boiler or boiler
This is another option when you do not need to change anything in the initial layout. The boiler is hidden inside a false box located in the toilet. At the same time, the toilet installation is hidden in the same box. The electric boiler can be replaced by a gas water heater.
Full redevelopment of the bathroom
If you mount the shower cubicle in place of the toilet, a significant part of the space in the opposite corner is freed. It houses a corner worktop and built-in sink. Under it there is a place for a small-sized washing machine. The toilet is transported to an adjacent wall.
Arrangement of a bay window
Before talking about the design of the bay window in the living room, you need to decide what functional load he needs to bear:
The most common option is the arrangement of a recreation area. This solution is suitable for those who like to relax on the sofa after work, with a book or in front of the TV. The issue with furniture can be solved simply: a sofa is enough (sometimes it is replaced with two armchairs) and a small coffee table.
The bay window is perfect for the workplace. For families with children, this is important, since it is not possible to allocate a separate room for the home office.
The protruding part of the room is a great place to place an electric fireplace. It is completely safe and meets the specifics of a bay window.
Unusual solution: equip a play area for a child. This is especially convenient for families where the teenager has his own room, and the baby is in the hall with his parents.
The bay window is an ideal place to place decorative objects: a floor vase or a small original sculpture.
It is also necessary to think over "clothes" for windows. The purpose of the bay window construction is to provide good lighting in the room. Therefore, deaf heavy curtains are hardly suitable here. The specific version of the curtains depends on the use of the bay window. Rolled curtains or blinds are suitable for a home botanical garden or office.It is advisable to decorate the dining area or resting place with curtains made of light textile. Cornices use profile, round or string. If you like everything non-standard and unique, it is worth thinking about stained-glass windows.
Color spectrum
The choice of colors can be very different. Much depends on the style decision you choose. For example, for the Scandinavian style, a single color palette for all housing is a matter of principle. As a rule, the basis of the Scandinavian style is shades of white: for the ceiling, walls and even the floor. The background is ready. Now it remains to set bright accents. In the Scandinavian interior can be up to 5 shades. Types of accents: multi-colored rug, decorative pillows or dark furniture.
The color scheme of the loft interior is formed differently. The role of the background is played by masonry or its imitation (as an option - roughly plastered walls). Mandatory moments - single-level ceilings and the same flooring in all rooms. As for furniture, textiles and accessories, they can be anything from ultra-modern to antique. For example, in the corridor, a traditional hanger will be replaced by a rack with “shoulders” and a plank shelf for hats.
For mixed solutions that combine elements of classic, Provencal or modern, the following tips are relevant:
The choice of 2-3 shades. They can be contrasting or, conversely, combined. Accessories are chosen for the color of the finish.
The basic background for the entire housing is unified (usually neutral), and one wall in each room is brightly painted or wallpapered with a pattern that matches the style.
The interior looks beautiful with 2-3 common colors and one of its own in each room.
Styles
In a two-room apartment it is possible to use the following solutions:
Classic. The canons of style require an abundance of high-quality expensive furniture, luxurious and monumental.For a relatively small apartment, neoclassicism with characteristic accessories, but without excessive pomp, is more appropriate.
Neo-Baroque is another interesting option for two. The furniture is the most necessary, but the decoration is luxurious: with bright decorative plaster, stucco decorations and emphasized rich lamps.
Hi-tech, minimalism, techno. These styles include a lack or minimum of decor. Bright colors on the walls, furniture upholstery or carpet are used as color accents.
Conclusion
Even in a standard standard apartment, you can create a unique interior that emphasizes your personality. A little imagination and creativity - and you will succeed.
The houses of the P-44T and P-44K series are quite popular buildings that are being built on the site of the demolished five-story buildings.
