Learning how to correctly zonate space


Zoning rooms - our favorite pastime in recent years. After all, not everyone can buy an apartment, and I would like to live in a new home. Here, and comes to the aid of a popular design technique - the division of space. The apartment is old, and the rooms are different. This creates the illusion of a capital redevelopment, although in fact it was not! But such, at first glance, a simple occupation has its own laws and methods. How can this be done "in science"? So, we learn how to properly zonate space. It is useful to all.

Many people often think about housing redevelopment. In addition, new apartments are rented without finishing, without internal partitions. Or there are walls, but not where you would like. According to the law, it is not possible to change the bearing structures. Errors in changing the layout often lead to building errors and defects. Therefore, it is first necessary to coordinate the desired changes with different instances. This is not only troublesome, but it can not bring positive results. Therefore, it is better to use those methods that do not require coordination:

construct a drywall wall;

arrange furniture "face to face";

to introduce into the interior additional architectural elements (column, podium, bay window ...); put the rack;

make the floor of materials of different textures.

1. Drywall is an amazingly functional, plastic material. Without it, you can not do in modern interior design. It is not necessary to build a blank wall from it, although it is possible. Most often, low and not too long "half walls" are made from it, which imitate anything you like - bar racks, screens, shelving ... Sometimes they are made of winding or semicircular, which greatly increases the possibilities of enriching the design. In this case, a drywall wall is used to separate the area of ​​the "cabinet with the bed" from the rest of the area.

2. Face to face (facade to the facade or even in some other sequence) you can put a nebulous thing and (like, for example, a desk and bed), also dividing them with a not too intricate partition - a two-sided rack or screen ...

3. Columns or podiums help regroup different areas of space or even visually move the center of the interior. Of course, the column in the center of the room is a great design risk. But in this case it does not attract attention to itself, does not pretend to be really a decoration of the room, but plays its own role - the center of the room, from which the zones in different directions diverge. Very decorate the room with elements such as the podium or bay window (it is usually created on the loggia, thereby expanding the room's area, but narrowing the balcony's borders). The podium does not need to be high, only at will, but, firstly, at any height and size, it allocates a certain special zone (on it you can place a rest corner or place a bedroom, study or dining area), and secondly, it The rule is also an additional place for storage. For example, in the podium you can remove bedding along with mattresses and pillows, fold seasonal clothes or some other things that you will not need for a long time.

4. The most common division of the room - with the help of a rack. If it is deaf, it is followed by an extra room, if the two-way is an elegantly decorated area.

5. Several carpets or carpets of different colors and different textures or a combination of, for example, dark parquet, variegated carpet and light laminate will clearly divide the space as you intended.
