The layout of apartments in typical houses can hardly be called ideal, with their small living rooms, inconvenient kitchens and long corridors.
Expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino shared effective solutions that can be used by those apartment owners who are thinking about redevelopment.
Change the space
Have you set a goal to change the space? Here are the tools that will help you: installation and dismantling, moving and building up walls, etc.
Agree that a crooked corridor is much better than a polygonal bedroom. Well, "straighten" the unevenness by using transition zones: let the rooms acquire the correct outlines, and the hallway take on an awkward shape.
Combine the rooms
The advantage of combining rooms is that the larger the room ends up being, the less noticeable the imperfections of its shapes and proportions will be.
Once you've finished expanding the space, consider zoning options.
Smooth out the corners
Sometimes in rooms we may encounter “whiskers”, that is, additional protruding corners that appear due to pylons and ventilation boxes.
Because they make the room asymmetrical, you will have to think about how to play with them. Furniture rounding or chamfered edges will help smooth out the whiskers, and with the help of neat decor you will be able to eliminate the aggressiveness of the protruding right angle.
Previously, we talked about why you should avoid bright household appliances and marble work surfaces.
