What should be a house for a family with children? Beautiful, comfortable and functional. It should provide a place for spending time together, and for arranging the personal zone of each family member. At the same time, it is desirable that this house be inexpensive in construction and does not require large expenditures in operation.
Day zone for the whole family
Many modern cottages are built two-story, while the second floor is usually residential attic. In houses with an attic, it is very easy to organize a functional and comfortable interior. In addition, they provide the possibility of dividing into two zones: day and night.
The daily zone is, first of all, the living room, which is a room for communication, games, joint meals, relaxation and receiving guests. Today it is customary to combine the living room with the dining room and with the kitchen to get a large multifunctional room. In this case, in addition to space, we get good two or even three-sided natural light.
In most projects offered to private developers today, there are two entrances - one on the main facade, and the second leading through the terrace to the courtyard. The living room itself is planned with maximum glazing, which gives comfort to the interior and makes the exterior of the building more stylish and expressive. Direct access from the living room to the terrace naturally connects the house with the garden. This is very convenient, especially in summer, when the life of households can take place almost throughout the entire household.
And in winter, the atmosphere of a hearth will be emphasized ... a hearth, that is, a fireplace located in the living room relaxation area, which provides not only comfort in the house, but also effective distribution of heat in the premises.
The daily zone, located on the ground floor, is designed with a compact bathroom or with a full bathroom. In addition, in the part of the ground floor, remote from the living room, there is often an office, a guest room or a bedroom for elderly family members who find it difficult to climb the stairs to the second floor. It all depends on the parameters of the cottage, on the composition of the family that will live in it and on the needs of future households.
The kitchen should preferably be located near the entrance. To increase efficiency and rationality, the kitchen and bathroom are designed side by side. If possible, the kitchen area is deepened into a U-shaped niche, since this is the most convenient location. It is advisable to have a spacious pantry with a small window next to the kitchen.
Night sleeping area
The night zone is the territory of the private rooms of all family members. It is traditionally referred to as attic floor. The upstairs bedrooms are protected by the layout itself from the noise of the guest area, as well as from the eyes of the guests of the house. The parents' bedroom should be separated from the children's by a corridor or a bathroom. In addition, it makes sense to equip the parent bedroom with its own bathroom and dressing room. Children will still have a shared bathroom. In order to make it easier to maintain order in children's rooms, it is better to provide a dressing room for children, where they will store seasonal clothes and shoes, sports equipment, etc.
Balconies are a special decoration of mansard cottages. If desired, each bedroom can be endowed with a private balcony. It all depends on the tastes and capabilities of the owners. The ideal option would be an attic with two balconies - one above the porch of the main entrance, and one above the terrace. At the same time, parents will have their own balcony, and children will have their own.
Ancillary facilities - everything in its place
Dressing rooms, as mentioned above, should be located next to the bedrooms. However, an additional dressing room for outerwear can be placed on the ground floor. Another auxiliary room - a pantry, should be next to the kitchen, this has also already been mentioned. In addition to her in the house you need to have a pantry for storage garden tools and other household items, as well as a boiler room. If the cottage is designed with an attached garage connected to the house by an internal entrance, you can equip a boiler room and one storage room in the garage extension.
It is very important to build a house from materials that are inexpensive and can provide it with an economical operation. Fortunately, modern building technology allow the use of fairly effective and economical materials.
To make the house inexpensive both to build and maintain, it must have a simple rectangular shape. How more design buildings will have complex elements in the form of bay windows, arches, etc., the more expensive the construction will be, and the more difficult it will be to provide it with the required level of heat saving. The roof should also be simple in shape. The most economical option is the classic gable roof.
Where to begin? What to pay attention to? Practical experience.
I am often asked: how did you manage to build such a cozy and, at the same time, comfortable house? Who did the project for you?
Let me share our experience. (Continuation of articles about our choice of land and site planning)
It all started with the fact that I wanted my own house. Two-story, spacious, with its own bedroom, children's room and kitchen-living room. Everything is like everyone else in dreams of a house.
At first we just looked at hundreds of cute pictures of houses. When it became clear what they liked and what they didn’t, they switched to sites with projects. The second differs from the first in the presence of layouts. There are a lot of sites. After studying the catalogs of projects, mainly on Western sites, we have clear requirements for the house:
- Without ground floor. It's expensive, but functionally we don't need it
- No garage for cars. We decided that the garage would be a separate building, combined with a workshop and households. block. Sometime later
- No sauna in the house. Initially, they wanted exactly the opposite, but decided to save on the area of \u200b\u200bthe house itself. And combine the bath with guest rooms and build later
- 2 floors. One would take up too much area of the site, three - you are tormented by running up the stairs.
- 3 bedrooms: adult and two children (separately for son and daughter)
- Dressing room combined with an adult bedroom and a bathroom
- Dressing room, combined with the hallway. So that all outerwear, sleds, skis, strollers, etc.
- An office that can sometimes serve as a guest room
- Own bathroom for children and their parents
- Laundry combined with a place to store all household items
- Second light and fireplace. Expensive and irrational attributes, but without them your home is not a home. As a result, everything was done for the fireplace preparatory work, but the installation itself was postponed for a couple of years
- Living room, dining room and kitchen - a single large space, a minimum of walls on the ground floor
- Lots of big windows. In the living room and dining room, they should be "on the floor", they should be even in the bathrooms and pantries.
- A veranda overlooking the backyard and combined with a kitchen to dine on rare warm days fresh air
- A small pantry in the kitchen, so as not to take up space in the headset with rarely used things
- Boiler room that meets the standards fire safety(with window, separate entrance).
Requirements such as the proximity of communications and the orientation of windows to the south were taken for granted. For each room, we presented the minimum and maximum allowable area. To do this, they measured all the rooms of the apartment in which they lived, and sketched out a kitchen plan in the Ikea planner.
With approximately such a list, we began to choose a project from those sold on Russian sites. Western ones are not suitable here due to their orientation to other climatic conditions. The advantages of buying over individual development are, firstly, in cost, and secondly, often in quality. Many "serial" projects have already been built by someone, tested in practice, and in general, they are made by professional, and not "second time after diploma" architects and designers.
We were one step away from buying one of these projects:
But they changed their mind.
Decided to do individual project based on something already built. Some already built found on the next site of the design organization. After discussing the project with the builders, we found out that they know the house from photographs and that it is located in Novosibirsk. We were shocked and went to watch live.
The house turned out to be very cool, but too big and not suitable for all our requirements. They took it as a basis and redid it.
After about 15 iterations, we got a project that meets all our requirements:
Thus, you can choose the project that best suits you. And then turn to an architect or a construction company and make this project "yours", as we did. Acting according to this algorithm, you can avoid dozens of projects that are not suitable for you from designers who do not know your needs and tastes.
And finally, a few practical advice how to avoid mistakes and get your dream home project:
Be more often in the homes of acquaintances and friends. Observe your feelings, in which house you feel comfortable and cozy, and in which you feel uncomfortable and want to change the space.
Visualize in your area. Come to where you will build a house and imagine that you are in it. Put the pegs and stand on the proposed veranda, living room, kitchen. Watch where the sun shines, what the view will be from the windows, what kind of neighbors, whether you want to be closer to them or whether you should turn the house around so that the veranda for gatherings with loved ones is in a secluded corner. It is good to know the wind rose of your area and plan the front entrance so that you do not have to dig out with a shovel on a winter morning. It is convenient to have a window overlooking the gate and the gate in order to see the one who has come to you.
Consider your lifestyle. If you have children and like active walks, frequent guests, or maybe you just have a large wardrobe, then plan a spacious entrance hall with a storage area for clothes, shoes, sports equipment, and guest hangers. Also a great idea with a dryer or underfloor heating in the hallway, very useful in winter, when a crowd of kids come running from the street and you need to dry your clothes as quickly as possible.
If you have a dog, you can plan a water source right in the hallway so that you can wash your paws. This will come in handy for barefoot children in the summer too!
Big house- This is a big cleaning, washing and ironing. Try to optimize the space for these cases. Plan a laundry room or one of the bathrooms with a laundry area where you can place a washing machine, dryer, ironing board, detergents and different mops. It is very convenient to immediately start containers for each family member, where to put clean clothes. For example, a child carries such a container, puts clothes in their places, then leaves this container in his room, and brings the same container with dirty linen to the bath. It turns out that there is always a place in the room where the child folds used clothes without scattering dirty socks all over the house.
You can, of course, come up with more interesting ideas, such as an elevator pipe for dirty clothes in each room, through which it gets into the general basket in the laundry room. But this is, as they say, whatever your heart desires.
Storage of things. When building your house, you have a great advantage: you can avoid closets altogether. Plan closets, pantries and mezzanines in almost every room. Look for ideas in Ikea and on sites on the Internet. This approach has long been used in the West. In addition, it can save your space, and therefore reduce the cost of the house.
Children. Many people think that by moving into their own house and making children's rooms on the second floor, they will forever get rid of children's chaos and toys throughout the house. This is mistake. Unless, of course, you are going to sit in the children's room all day and play there with the child. Children will be where you are. Therefore, immediately think over the storage of toys and children's areas both on the first and second floors. I really liked the ideas when a niche was made on the ground floor and a children's corner was equipped, a swing and a hammock hung in the living room, and the center of the room was free for running around and active games. Yet interesting idea make separate bedrooms for children, with access to a common play area where common toys are stored and you can spend time together. This is suitable for families who have little age difference in children and have many common interests. This idea allows you to learn to share space and things, but retaining the opportunity to retire and have your favorite toys and activities.
Think outside the box. Remember that your home should please you both from the outside and from the inside. Don't build square boxes with one small window in every room. Imagine the house of your dreams, which illuminates the morning sunlight, or maybe you have long dreamed of looking at the stars, lying on your bed in the bedroom? Why not? Everything is possible! The main thing is to plan :)
I wish you great plans and practical projects to move into your dream home as soon as possible! If you have any questions about our project, you can ask them in the comments, I will try to answer.
EVERYTHING WILL FIT!
This section contains finished projects cottages for large families.
In houses 5 to 10 bedrooms, some of which are necessarily located on the ground floor and are convenient for the older generation or kids.
. Cottages have an extended set auxiliary premises: garages, saunas, spacious workshops or spacious storerooms, garden terraces for summer holidays on outdoors. This eliminates the need to build a brazier, a barn or a second house, completely freeing the site for a garden, garden or park.
In most projects, common areas are combined into one spacious room, but can be isolated from each other. houses with an "open" ground floor plan the catalog contains the majority, since the location of common areas in a single space without partitions is one of the design principles of our bureau.
GROW AND CHANGE! A feature of large families is the "turnover" - someone is born, marries or separates. And so the house should be such that it can be easily re-arranged under new circumstances. Interior space designed without bearing walls , which allows you to divide it into rooms in a different way, as it is needed right now. The ability to change the layout of an already built multi-room house makes it more versatile and easily adaptable to the renewing composition of a large family.
