If a one -room apartment is decorated incorrectly and inconveniently — this can become a real disaster for its owners, especially if a whole family lives there, and not one person. For this reason, all the details and little things need to be thought out so that comfort is provided for all residents, and that each of them has the opportunity to at least be relatively alone. Of course, the most difficult thing is for children who need a lot of space for games and study. But the rest of the family should not feel constrained at the same time. In addition, we must not forget about the law on redevelopment, without the consent with which you have no right to any cardinal changes in your own apartment. The main disadvantage of small apartments is the shortage of free space. As a rule, the whole apartment is forced by cabinets, chests of drawers, shelves and other necessary attributes, so a person has nowhere to turn around. To increase the free area, you can demolish all the partitions and combine the kitchen with the room, but before that, be sure to consult with a specialist how to dismantle the partitions without violating security rules and without problems with further coordination. By the way, many «odnushki» have large hallways, which can be used to increase living space. As for the kitchen — you can highlight one corner of the room under it, separating this space with a bar counter. The TV should be hanged on the wall so that it is visible to the one who cooks. It is advisable to place a children’s corner as far as possible from noise sources. It is advisable to generally separate it from the room. You can do this using a wardrobe or a rack where toys and books will be placed. There are cabinets with built -in beds, which can significantly save space. Do not force the center of the room. It is better to consult a professional designer about the nuances with zoning the premises. The bathroom in such apartments is most often small and combined, which brings a lot of inconvenience. Its area can be slightly increased due to the area of the kitchen (which you have already connected to the room). Or you can «take» a little space at the hallway. You can save space by placing a toilet, a bathroom or shower in the corners of the bathroom. Shelves and cabinets are better to choose small size. And visually the space can be increased using a certain backlight. The walls of the pantries can also be demolished to increase the total space. Do not forget that in order to avoid problems and fines, the redevelopment should be legalized. Of course, you will have to spend your time and finances, but believe me, you will be rewarded for your efforts the final result.
