When developing an individual project, we take into account the following features:

• The design of a one-room apartment is determined by the composition of the family. If there is one person or a married couple, then the kitchen can be combined with the room, which will create a more spacious home. For a family with children, on the contrary, it may be necessary to build partitions or use other solutions to create compact areas for family members.
• The visual expansion of the space for the design of the apartment in light colors is always relevant.
• If you have an insulated loggia (for example, if you have a good new building), the living area can be expanded at the expense of it. It is also possible to perform preliminary high-quality insulation of the loggia in old houses.
• When choosing furniture in a one-room apartment, it is also necessary to focus on a relatively small one-room interior. Therefore, furniture should be roomy and functional.

Fit all the necessary zones and adapt them to the life scenario of the owners. Make them functional and aesthetic. This is perhaps the main task that the modern design of a one-room apartment of 2017 sets before itself.

Kitchen area, dining room, bathroom, dressing room, place to rest and sleep. Sometimes a nursery, study or living room is added to this. It's good if for all these needs there is at least 40 sq. m. But sometimes you need to create a miracle for 20 square meters. m, connecting imagination and all available design techniques.

The interior of a one-room apartment does not shape the lifestyle of the owners, but adapts to it. Based on this principle, the number of required zones and their sizes are formed. So, a spacious kitchen area will not be appropriate in the apartment of a person who is used to eating outside the home.

Stages of creating an interior design for a one-room apartment in 2017:

In addition, modern trends indicate a reduction in the area allocated for sleeping places. It should still be comfortable, but at the same time as laconic as possible. Massive wardrobes and dressers have faded into oblivion or transformed into disguised built-in niches.

The design of a one-room apartment largely depends on the composition of the family. Styles such as modern, classic, hi-tech are well suited for a married couple. Provence and shabby chic can be attributed to the female direction. And for men - loft and minimalism. Of course, this is a conditional division.

Each project is individual and focuses primarily on personal preferences and the purpose of the living space. For example, a bachelor's apartment can be both a place for noisy parties and a cozy den for sleeping and relaxing.

The studio apartment is still a popular option. With proper zoning, this solution allows you to create a cozy space even on an area of ​​18 sq. m. And functionality and ergonomics come to the fore, not forgetting about aesthetics. Where do you start? Having decided on the requirements for the future living space, it is necessary to start detailed planning. In the future, this will avoid many problems, and the repair will not take many months.

Design project of a one-room apartment

First, let's look at the main stages of developing a design project:

1. drawing up a measurement drawing;
2. layout of functional areas;
3. if necessary, a plan for dismantling and installing partitions is drawn up;
4. drawing up options for furnishing;
5. planning the placement of plumbing;
6. development of a floor plan (if necessary, with a floor heating scheme);
7. development of a ceiling plan;
8. development of a layout of sockets and lighting equipment;
9. preparation of color solutions;
10. selection of decorative elements;
11. creation of 3D visualization.

However, this information is not enough to answer the question "how to make a design project of a one-room apartment with your own hands?" Therefore, let's decipher each stage separately using a specific example.

It all starts with measurements. They should be as accurate as possible, since the correctness of all project documentation depends on this. Pay special attention to the height of the walls, as even in new buildings it may differ. Based on the measurements, we draw up a measurement plan. Next, we develop options for the arrangement of furniture, appliances and plumbing equipment, indicating the size.

The design project of a one-room studio apartment necessarily includes a plan of openings and installation / dismantling of partitions. Here, separate footnotes indicate wall insulation, the construction of podiums and other similar information. It should be noted that some types of redevelopment must be agreed with the appropriate authority.

Now we turn to the floor and ceiling finishing plans, in which we work out the types and boundaries of coatings / facing materials. For the ceiling, we also mark the lighting fixtures, select the lighting scenario. Here the design project of a one-room apartment enters a very important stage - the development of an electrical circuit. Here we indicate the switches and their types, bindings to the nearest partition, the location of the sockets and their types.

Next, we make a scan of the rooms. On the plan of the apartment, we assign a serial number to each room and wall. Then we indicate at what height this or that element will be placed, we develop color solutions. After that, it is necessary to draw up a detailed estimate, in which we indicate the amount of consumables and facing materials and the cost.

The final stage is the creation of 3D visualization. The most popular programs for creating a design project for a one-room apartment: 3D Studio MAX, Sweet Home 3D, FloorPlan 3D. These are programs with different levels of difficulty. With a lack of experience and a tight repair schedule, the best solution would be to turn to professional designers.

The interior of a modern studio apartment can be compared to a multitool tool. It is just as multi-tasking and functional. Everything here is aimed at visually expanding the space, competent use of the usable area without loss of comfort. After all, there is only about 36 square meters for everything about everything. m.

The hallway is usually used as a mini dressing room. Floor-to-ceiling mirrored doors without visible frames will be appropriate here. If for some reason this is not possible, an interesting idea is to attach a mirror to your front door. This technique will lengthen the corridor / hallway. If the wall with the built-in wardrobe is adjacent to the bathroom, then you can sacrifice part of the space for the washing machine. As a result, you will get a small niche that will significantly save space.

Sometimes there are quite bold ideas for the interior of a one-room apartment. For example, if the layout allows, you can equip a mini-kitchen in the hallway. This option is suitable for those who mainly eat out.

The design of a bathroom in the interior of a one-room apartment is also aimed at visually expanding the boundaries, since most often this zone has a rather small area. A light palette will come to the rescue - from decoration to plumbing. A good solution would be a mirrored ceiling and a clear glass sink. Shower doors should also be transparent. This will give the room the necessary lightness.

In order not to clutter up the space with various small items, it is necessary to provide for closed storage systems. The external organization and orderliness of the room will also allow you to achieve the effect of airiness. The main decorative element can be a mirror in an original frame. One accent is enough. A sliding door can also become a convenient functional element. Remember that in advance all ideas must be drawn up on paper or in a specialized program.

The kitchen in the studio apartment is combined with the rest of the space. Let's take a look at the most stylish ideas. We combine the kitchen and the living room, which in turn is separated from the bedroom by a false partition or screen. This technique allows you to turn a one-room apartment into a two-room one. In addition, we have a full-fledged dining area, which can also serve as a place to relax and receive guests.

Another option is not to move the dining area outside the kitchen. Instead, zone the space with a bar and a sofa set with the back to it. A good solution for an area of ​​30 sq. m and less. In addition to a sleeping place and a recreation area, it allows you to equip a small work area. Most often, it is taken out onto the balcony, combined with the room.

The design of the kitchen in a one-room apartment also involves the option of placing the kitchen unit in one line. In this case, each module must be carefully considered. Retractable "carousels" and all kinds of niches with a large number of compartments are used.

The kitchen in a one-room apartment can be separate. This will avoid wall demolition and additional costs. In addition, the main area will be isolated from odors that are an integral part of cooking. In the room, you can place a large sofa in the relaxation area and equip a mini-cabinet.

On a very small area of ​​17 sq. m as a bed, choose a folding sofa, which in the daytime is a seating area. A more spacious quadrature allows you to separate a full sleeping place. There are many zoning techniques that make a bedroom in a studio apartment a secluded and comfortable space.

A practical choice is a double-sided wardrobe that can be used to store clothes and other items. On the one hand, it can be closed with mirrored doors, on the other, it can have open shelves.

Some layouts have a special niche for a double bed. From the side of the hallway, it can be separated by a wardrobe, and it can be fenced off from the living area using a blackout curtain from ceiling to floor. A good solution would be to arrange a podium with boxes for storing bed linen, blankets and pillows.

Competent bedroom design in a one-room apartment largely depends on the correct lighting. If there is only one window in the bedroom, the dividing cabinet should not be high to allow natural light to enter the second part of the room. Another option is to separate the sleeping area using glass sliding doors.

The design of a one-room apartment for a family with a child requires a special approach. The task is complicated by the addition of another large zone, which is divided into several smaller ones. Furniture becomes a particular problem. After all, the question arises: "where to put a crib in a one-room apartment?"

A good solution may be to divide the room into two zones - a sleeping place for parents with a large folding sofa and a children's area with a furniture set, which includes a bed, a workplace and a small wardrobe for storing things. Of course, a lot depends on the age of the child.

A place for a newborn in a one-room apartment can be equipped in a very small area. You just need to put a cradle and a changing table, and use wall decor in the form of painting, paper crafts and felt as an accent.

To equip a children's corner in your apartment, use bunk headsets. There are very original models that provide not only a sleeping place, but also a closed play area in the form of architectural niches. Of course, the design of a nursery in a one-room apartment will require a lot of imagination and careful preparation. But thanks to modern furniture and a rich selection of materials, nothing is impossible.

With proper design and planning, a small studio apartment can turn into a stylish and functional home. Numerous design techniques allow even 17 sq. m arrange all the necessary zones. Of course, you can't count on the gym and the library, but the gentleman's set will definitely fit.

There are general rules that it is advisable to adhere to. The interior of a small one-room apartment does not tolerate dark colors. In any case, in large numbers. It is better to take white, pale beige, cream shades as a basis. If you want bright colors, you can make an exception to the rule. One of the rooms, for example the kitchen, is decorated in deep colors - blue, brown, green. But at the same time, the furniture must be necessarily light, preferably white.

Sometimes there are layouts with narrow elongated spaces. A rectangular room is not the best option for furnishing, but it is a solvable problem. A room can be made visually wider using several techniques.

Opposite walls are painted in different shades. For example, in white and light beige. Or one of them is decorated with a photo wallpaper with a perspective. Thanks to this, even a space of 20 sq. m takes on a completely different look. The floor is decorated with a finely patterned carpet. It is also worth considering the correct lighting scenario. Instead of a single pendant lamp, several light sources are used. The window opening is not hung with curtains, but is left as open as possible. Blinds and roman shades are also good. The furniture is used laconic, in light upholstery. Much also depends on the finish.

Renovation of a small one-room apartment, most likely, will not do without redevelopment. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to organically enter all the necessary zones and adapt them to the life scenario of the owners. A studio apartment is most often the most successful solution for a modest square.

First, let's understand the terminology. A smart apartment is a small living space. In fact, this is an updated version of the good old living rooms. The minimum area starts from 18 sq. m. However, there is a significant difference. Smart translated from English means "smart". A smart interior knows how to dispose of every centimeter of usable area.

Equipping a smart apartment is not an easy task. That is why some developers offer ready-made housing. If you want to implement your own project, you need to sit down to a design project or contact professional designers.

It should be noted that smart housing is not a budget option at all. It would seem that the modest dimensions should have a beneficial effect on the overall estimate. After all, you need less finishing materials. This is true, but there is one "but". All furniture should ideally be made to order. Here literally every millimeter counts. Of course, you can find ready-made solutions with the required parameters. However, this is time consuming.

The answer to the question "how to furnish a smart apartment?" will become transforming furniture. The word "smart" also applies to her. One set may include a sofa that converts into a double bed, a small table and a wardrobe with a built-in ironing board.

The kitchen in a smart apartment should be as inconspicuous as possible. For "camouflage" use white fronts from floor to ceiling with doors that open by pressing. It is important not to skimp on fittings, so that it lasts as long as possible. An interesting idea is a mobile table on a rail built into the windowsill. This will not only save 10-15 centimeters, but also provide freedom of maneuver. One way or another, the window sill area should certainly be used as a dining table or an additional work surface.

The design of a smart apartment can be compared to shooting a short video, when it is necessary to put in a colossal meaning in a few minutes. However, this is bearing fruit. Space of 15 sq. m turns into a cozy and comfortable house with a unique character. This type of apartment is well suited as a first independent home.

So that the repair of a one-room apartment does not drag on for a long period of time, it is necessary to start with drawing up a detailed estimate. We divide the costs into several groups (select items depending on the type of repair):

1. repair team;
2. rough and finishing materials, as well as their delivery and unloading;
3. plumbing equipment;
4. lighting;
5. pieces of furniture;
6. textiles and decorative elements;
7. loading and disposal of garbage.

A contingency reserve should also be provided. Do not start renovating a one-room apartment without a full estimate. Otherwise, finishing touches and rescheduling simply cannot be avoided.

Redecoration of a one-room apartment

This is the most affordable way to freshen up your interior. At the same time, even a change in the design of the walls can change the space beyond recognition. The best time for renovation is spring. But you can buy materials already in winter. If you wish, you can cope with this task on your own. If you need to do the repair work as quickly as possible, and there is not a month or two left, it is better to hire a professional construction team.

Redecoration of a one-room apartment often does not provide for leveling the walls. This means that you need to choose the right finishing materials that will hide this flaw. Painting and decorative plaster are not suitable. In this case, thick wallpaper is needed. Non-woven and vinyl types of this material are suitable. The former have a pleasant matte texture and are well suited for the bedroom. The second - they tolerate wet cleaning better, and therefore are applicable in the kitchen and in the corridor / hallway.

You can reanimate the floor with carpet, which can be laid even over the old flooring. Linoleum is also suitable. It is necessary to select a material with a high level of wear resistance. A 31-32 class of operation is suitable.

Overhaul of a one-room apartment

Overhaul of a one-room apartment consists of the following stages:

1. development of project design and budgeting;
2. purchase of rough and finishing materials, tools;
3. installation of plumbing equipment, radiators, electrical wiring;
4. replacement / installation of windows and doors;
5. bathroom finishing;
6. finishing the kitchen;
7. decoration of the hallway and bedroom;
8. loading and disposal of garbage.

Most of these steps will require the help of a professional construction team. You need to choose a team that has a leader. This will greatly facilitate the control process. A convenient, but not cheap option is to order a complete design project with a field supervision service.

Dismantling work can be done on your own. This will cut your budget a little. But you should not save on wiring and materials.

Repair of a one-room apartment with a niche

Renovation of a one-room apartment with a niche provides for an emphasis on space zoning with finishing materials. Often, a niche is converted into a sleeping area, visually separating it with wall decoration or flooring. Sometimes the construction of additional architectural structures is required - a podium, false partitions and others.

Another option is to arrange a work area in a niche. An interesting solution can be a two-level podium, in the lower part of which there is a built-in pull-out bed. This trick is especially good for small spaces.

Repair of a one-room apartment in a new building

Most often, developers transfer living space to the owners in the following configuration: floor screed, plumbing wiring, final plastering of walls. Windows and radiators can also be installed. The rest of the work will have to be done independently. Repair of a one-room apartment in a new building has exactly the same stages as described above. But special attention must be paid to additional sound insulation. In the future, this will significantly increase the level of comfort of living in the new house.

Styles of a one-room apartment

Choosing the style of a one-room apartment is an extremely important and incredibly exciting stage. The character and mood of the future interior depends on it. But there are so many directions, how can you stop at one and only one? Play explorer. View visualizations and photos of interiors, and save the ones you like. After analyzing the selection for general details, you can understand which style is best for you.

The design of a one-room apartment is primarily selected based on personal preferences and the possibility of maximum adaptation to the habits and scenario of life. Let's consider the most popular options according to the scheme: main features, pros, cons.

To understand what it is - a one-room apartment in the Scandinavian style, it is necessary to highlight the main features of this direction. These include:

1. dominant white color in tandem with rich color accents and pastel colors;
2. natural materials in decoration, decor and textiles;
3. furniture and free space in a percentage ratio of 50 to 50;
4. practical furniture;
5. abundance of natural light.

Pros: lightness of space; simple grace combined with practicality; does not require the use of expensive materials.

Cons: white requires extremely careful use and careful cleaning; it is necessary to consider a large number of "invisible" storage systems; it creates a feeling of coziness in warm seasons, but in winter its atmosphere can seem a little cool.

One-room loft-style apartment has a masculine character. This is due to the following characteristic features of this direction:

1. rough finish (most common materials: concrete, brick, metal);
2. the minimum amount of decor;
3. simple and practical furniture;
4. maximum open space.

Pros: a feeling of psychological relief due to the laconicism of the interior; ease of repair; cleaning does not take much time.

Cons: the integrity of the interior, which can be easily destroyed by new things or the decor you like; the need for original design items that can cost a pretty penny; the need to equip hidden storage systems.

A one-room apartment in the style of minimalism will suit those who are tired of overloaded interiors, massive furniture of bright colors. The main features of the direction:

1. lack of decorative elements;
2. monochrome palette;
3. furniture of laconic forms;
4. hidden light sources.

Pros: free layout is ideal for creating any design project; an abundance of natural light; simple and functional space.

Cons: the atmosphere of the loft can hardly be called warm and homely; requires large financial costs; fits hard into a small area.

The main task is to make the most of every centimeter of the area. For these purposes, transforming furniture is well suited. A coffee table that, with the help of lifting mechanisms, turns into a dining table. Wardrobe bed with a small folding table. There are many options on the market. The main thing is to choose models with high-quality fittings that will ensure a long service life.

Such furniture also has a significant drawback in the form of high cost. More affordable standard options. A folding sofa may well have several functional loads - a sleeping place at night and relaxation areas in the daytime. If space permits, it is better to give preference to a double bed with storage boxes at the bottom.

Furniture for a one-room apartment should be multifunctional. Since it often serves as a zoning tool. It is selected individually, based on the style of the interior and for specific needs.

Cabinets, if possible, are built into a niche or models with glass doors are chosen. Don't forget about decorative elements. For small apartments, mirrors in unusual frames and vases with glossy textures are well suited. In a more spacious square, you can enter a geometrically verified composition of your favorite photos, paintings and even volumetric sculptures made of paper.

Repair of a one-room apartment is always complicated by the fact that there is very little space in it, and the result should be the presence of a large number of functional areas. Not all people are well versed in design intricacies, zoning rules, and the services of a designer are expensive, and not everyone has the opportunity to attract a professional. From this article, you will learn what are the principles of remodeling a small apartment, study already implemented projects, take note of some of the secrets of transforming even a tiny space into a full-fledged and functional home.

Everyone is afraid of repair, but its result changes life for the better

The area and are of great importance. Someone owns 45 m², while others will have to create comfort on 27 m². One-room apartments are very popular today, they are relatively inexpensive, and a young family, as well as single citizens, can freely exist within their walls. When deciding to repair, a person dreams of several things at the same time:

• functionality;
• coziness;
• style;
• comfort.

Another task is the visual and physical increase in space. A small kitchen, a bathroom in which it is impossible to turn around, a narrow corridor - all this is familiar to our citizens.

Options for connecting a balcony and pantry

One of the options for expanding a small apartment is joining. Also, this issue can be resolved by eliminating the pantry. A balcony is a place where apartment owners store unnecessary things. Rarely does anyone make a cozy resting space out of it due to the long winters in our country. That is why joining a balcony or is a great idea for expanding the space.

In order for a one-room apartment in "Khrushchev" to become comfortable and functional, it will take a lot of effort. When placed in a full-fledged room, you will need to fence off this space with. The same technique works for the kitchen area. The technical features of the partitions depend on the number of people living in the apartment. Designers advise using several zoning techniques at once so as not to overload the space:

• zoning with a piece of furniture;
• installation of a full-fledged partition;
• installation of a bar counter;
• zoning by color (for example, using different wallpapers for different zones).

• mirrored partitions from ceiling to floor will allow you to completely fence off one room from another without the approval of the supervisory authorities, and mirrors will add light to the apartment;

Remember, if the walls are defective, you do not need to approve them, which means you do not need to overpay.

Building materials for finishing a one-room apartment

Interior ideas for a studio apartment

There are a lot of options for repairing a one-room apartment. It is necessary to approach the implementation of the plan in detail. Think about all the details, including the small ones: light, colors, furniture and decor. In the interior, everything is important to the smallest detail. Below we will present a photo of the renovation of one-room apartments with an area of ​​37 m² and a larger area, so that the reader can choose an interesting option.

Choice of color scheme

Color is an essential design element. In small apartments, he plays a decisive role. As we said earlier, you should not exaggerate the colors in the case of studios, small rooms, narrow hallways.

If the goal is to expand the space as much as possible, use white or beige, as well as mirrors. Need a bright accent? It's simple: bright details, greenery on the windowsills, a bright sofa or.

Decor of a one-room apartment

The decor is what should give the room lightness and airiness. Minimize bright accents.

How to furnish a one-room apartment with furniture so as not to overload the space? For small spaces, it should be: a folding sofa, chairs, a cabinet that can be used as a table.

Do not stuff the floor with furniture. The larger its space, the larger the room seems. If the walls are light, the furniture should match them.

Lighting design selection

The lighting problem is solved long before the start of cosmetic repairs. One rule works here: there should be a lot of light in a small confined space. Feel free to experiment with the built-in ones, especially the rotary ones. The design of the case should correspond to the general style of the room.

Equipping the interior of a one-room apartment is a serious task, especially if several people will live in it. It is important to think over every little thing, taking into account the interests of everyone. Moreover, comfort should not argue with aesthetics. But nothing is impossible!

When creating a modern and practical interior, you often have to resort to the help of designers. And this is additional financial expenses. Use the tips from the professionals gathered in this article and try to transform your one-room apartment yourself!

Formation of the interior of a one-room apartment: key points

Redevelopment

By playing with the location of the walls, you will change the interior beyond recognition. Here are some radical transformations of a one-room apartment:

• Expand the small kitchen by using the area of ​​the room. In our cultural tradition, cuisine is a place for good gatherings with guests. Let it become the front part of the apartment, taking on the role of the living room and dining room. The rest of the room will be converted into a secluded master bedroom.
• Discard the cramped corridor. The hallway does not have to huddle there at all. By removing the wall, you will make the hallway part of a new bright room. And a little trick will help you not to carry dirt from your shoes throughout the apartment. Make a rectangular indentation in the floor by the front door. Change your shoes in it, leaving your outdoor shoes in the same place. Sand and dirt will not come out of this "bath".
• In houses with a modern layout, a one-room apartment can have a decent area (about 50 sq.m. and more). Such a room can be easily redrawn into a two-room one: divide it into a bedroom and a living room, or allocate a separate full-fledged nursery.

Do not stop at the proposed options and come up with your own. It all depends on the initial data of the apartment, the number of people living in it and their needs.

Colour

As old as the world, advice: use light paints to decorate small rooms. It is believed that cool tones (blue, lavender) "expand" the space better. But warm (golden, ivory, cream, delicate peach, caramel) give the feeling of a sunny day even in bad weather.

The opposite trend: to give the room depth, the walls are painted in rather dark saturated colors. At the peak of popularity, emerald green and especially dark blue. These colors are calm enough, their intensity does not overwhelm.

Lovers of compromise can only use the trendy dark color for one or two walls.

Furniture

In a one-room apartment, furniture of simple forms, without pretentious details, is justified. Modern multifunctional transformer models will become a lifesaver. The table-bed in the daytime will serve as a desk, and in the evening it will easily turn into a comfortable sleeping place. A wardrobe-sofa, a sofa-bed, armchairs-beds, folding tables - all this wonderful furniture is indispensable in the interior of a one-room apartment.

Interior of a small one-room apartment: hallway decoration

Evaluating the interior of the hallway, guests subconsciously form an opinion about the owners of the home. Let's pay due attention to its arrangement!

In a small one-room apartment, the size of the hallway is also small, so it should be decorated in light colors. If you do not like the monochromatic wall decoration, choose a material with a medium-sized not very variegated pattern. A large print in a small room will "overload" the space, and a small and bright print will ripple in the eyes.

Don't forget about mirrored surfaces and photo wallpapers with "infinity effect".

If there is a niche in the corridor, equip a dressing room in it. If not, use a small wall hanger and shoe rack. A narrow chest of drawers will also come in handy, where you can put various little things.

Your task is to arrange the pieces of furniture so that the hallway space remains as free as possible.

Bathroom in the interior of a one-room apartment

In small apartments, the bathroom is usually combined. If it is divided into a bathroom and a toilet, the partition can be dismantled - this will slightly increase the area. Give up the bathroom in favor of a shower cabin, and give the vacant space to the washing machine.

Wall-hung toilets are a welcome innovation in the world of plumbing. They have no lower leg, and the cistern "hides" in the wall. This "lightens" the space and gives it freedom.

Use only the most essential furniture: a washbasin with a cabinet (it will serve as a good storage for cleaning and detergents) and shelves for toiletries.

Like the entire interior of a small studio apartment, the bathroom requires good lighting. It also creates a sense of spaciousness. Bright lights and multi-level lighting come in handy here.

Do not forget about the light colors of the finish. The tiles can be medium or small. Mirror surfaces and glossy stretch ceilings will be a winning option in the design of a small bathroom.

Important: If a family of three or more people lives in an apartment, for the convenience of users it is better to refuse the idea of ​​a combined bathroom.

Arrangement of a kitchen in a small apartment

The layout of small-sized apartments from the Soviet era completely deprived the kitchen space. In 6-9 squares, you need to squeeze a cooking area with the appropriate equipment and furniture for storing food and kitchen utensils. Use only the most necessary things: a stove, a sink, a refrigerator, a cutting surface with a curbstone, and a couple of wall cabinets for cereals and dishes.

Place a convertible folding table in the dining area, following the advice of Dekorin. If space permits, complement it with a compact sofa. Based on the needs of the family, it can be with a sleeping place or with a box for storing kitchen utensils.

Important: Do not try to emphasize the separation of the dining and kitchen areas with contrasting materials! Such fragmentation will visually make the room even smaller and cramped.

Small elements of bright decor (vase, wall panel, etc.) can be added to the light colors of the interior of a small kitchen. Close the window with roller blinds or transparent tulle without abundant gathers - this will make the room seem more spacious.

Room design in the interior of a one-room apartment

Arranging a room in a one-room apartment is the most important task, because here every square meter should be used as efficiently as possible. It is necessary to take into account the needs of all family members and equip:

• a place for active recreation;
• bedroom;
• wardrobe;
• work area for schoolchildren, students or working from home;
• children's corner if the family has a baby.

According to modern trends, it is better to decorate the interior of a one-room apartment in a minimalist style. His motto: nothing superfluous, practicality and versatility of interior items.

Actively use the furniture transformers, which were already mentioned above.

If the room is equipped with a storage niche, turn it into a wardrobe with a mirrored door by equipping shelves and hangers inside. The spacious niche can even play the role of a self-contained mini-room for one of the family members.

In a room with a high ceiling, use the second tier for sleeping space.

A real bonus in the interior of a one-room apartment is a balcony. Depending on your needs, it will turn into a dressing room, an office with a library, a recreation room, a workshop and even a full-fledged nursery. The main thing is not to spare funds for its insulation.

It is most correct to give priority to light, light tones in a small room and place the necessary accents with bright decorative elements.

For windows, you can use blinds, light roller blinds or tulle, and place curtains in darker shades around the edges. This design will create the illusion of a panoramic window and visually expand the space of the room.

Modern interior of a one-room apartment of 30 sq.m.

30 sq.m. - an excellent area for modeling a spacious and stylish studio apartment.

Of course, first you have to find out exactly which of the walls are not load-bearing and take permission to dismantle them. If a complete rejection of the wall partition is not possible, arches and supporting columns will come to the rescue. They will become not only a decorative element, but also take on the main load.

The interior of a one-room studio apartment needs proper zoning. For this, several basic techniques are used that can be combined with each other:

• Decoration of a multi-level room with a podium step. Place on it a cooking area, a mini-office or a guest area with a soft sofa and armchairs. A bed may be hidden inside the podium.
• Zoning with finishing materials of different colors and textures.
• The use of low solid partitions, as well as sliding tempered glass panels. Sliding partitions are more functional. They allow you to preserve the integrity of the space or isolate part of the apartment at the right time. For example, to prevent the spread of odors and fumes from the kitchen area or to hide clutter in it, along with dirty dishes.
• Division into zones with furniture. Traditional elements-delimiters are a shelving unit, a bar counter or a sofa, installed "facing" the seating area.

Studio interior 30 sq.m. gives you more room for color experimentation. Contrasting zones will look interesting here.

Free space will allow you to purchase a full-fledged kitchen set with a large number of cabinets. They will help to avoid the accumulation of kitchen utensils in visible places, which is unacceptable for a studio where everything is in plain sight.

Important: The studio is ideal for one person or a young couple with the same lifestyle and routine. Otherwise, its inhabitants are in danger of psychological discomfort. They will interfere with each other and suffer from the inability to retire.

We hope our review has given you a couple of ideas on how to make the interior of a one-room apartment modern, comfortable - and individual.

Interior of a one-room apartment: arrangement of comfortable and practical housing updated: June 6, 2018 by the author: Irina Kievskaya

And you can live comfortably in a small area, but for this it is worthwhile to work out a design project for a one-room apartment in advance. The interior, thought out to the smallest detail, in a typical one-room apartment can easily compete with spacious apartments for 3 or more rooms, if you correctly organize redevelopment, designate functional areas, and choose the right color and stylistic solution. For many, the task of independently creating a stylish interior that combines a living room, dining room and bedroom at the same time will seem overwhelming. But do not despair, a rational approach to renovation and the experience of professional designers will help turn a modest home into a truly comfortable, cozy and beautiful one that delights family members and friends.

Space planning and optimization

Modern design projects for one-room apartments are not limited to the study of the living area. It is important to create an interior in which the room, kitchen, hallway and bathroom form one whole, echoing, complementing each other in style and color scheme. In such an apartment there should be nothing superfluous, since in a small room it will immediately interfere and be striking.

Design projects of one-room apartments created by professionals are distinguished by their rationalism. The main task facing any designer who wants to equip a small room is to increase its usable area. Therefore, before starting to work on the interior, you should start redevelopment, the purpose of which is to emphasize the advantages of the apartment and get rid of the shortcomings.

Redevelopment

Various series of houses differ significantly both in the area of ​​apartments and in their layout, therefore each specific interior requires an individual approach. In some cases, it makes sense to do a complete redevelopment by removing internal partitions or parts of the walls. In one-room apartments up to 31 sq. m. the best planning solution would be to create a studio space, which will make the room more spacious, comfortable, for example, in a Khrushchev or small family, where a small kitchen brings great discomfort.

Before demolishing the walls, study the drawings and the plan of the apartment, in no case should the supporting structures be touched. With this in mind, you should develop several options for redevelopment and choose the most optimal from them in terms of constructive and design.

Advice ! Plan redevelopment, including demolition walls, partitions, enlargement openings, should to approve and legitimize v BTI, only after of this to proceed To dismantling. V otherwise case may to arise Problems v the future, starting out from commonplace fines and restrictions on sale premises, ending collapse parts building.

Planning

The design project can be ordered from professionals who will take into account all the features of the apartment, focusing on the tastes and wishes of the client. In this case, sketches, a 3D model of the future interior, recommendations for choosing furniture and accessories will be offered, but the services will not be cheap.

Advice! Ready projects, which easily find v the network, substantially simplify repair, but important correlate their with specific one-room apartment, a also personal needs. Even if with visual parties all arranges, not fact, what design fit with functional points vision.

It is quite possible to create a design project for a one-room apartment on your own by drawing up a detailed plan on paper or using an appropriate computer program. In this case, you should experiment with both the layout and the future furnishings of the apartment, its style.

The layout of a one-room apartment should be created based on the visual expansion of the space, therefore it is important to rationally use every centimeter of the area. It is better to start with the study of the living area, since it is in it that the most time will be spent, and if not everything, then a lot will depend on a comfortable environment, effective space management. For studio apartments, the living area should be worked out simultaneously with the kitchen so that the interior looks harmonious.

Advice! To to avoid appearances « dead zones«, better refuse from installations traditional doors, giving away preference sliding structures or at all dismantling their, opening opening.

When drawing up a design project for a one-room apartment, it is important to make the most of the available space, so sometimes you can resort to design tricks:

• Combining a room with a loggia will help to increase the usable area. At the same time, it is not necessary to dismantle the entire wall between these rooms, it is enough to remove the window block, and remake the rest of the wall into a functional space divider or furnishings (bar counter, bookshelf, table, etc.).
• The insulated loggia or balcony can be converted into a bedroom, study, dining room.
• In an apartment with a ceiling height of 3 m and above, you can equip a second tier on which a sleeping place can easily be located. Under such a bed there can be both an ordinary wardrobe and a seating area in the living room, but the base in any case must be strong and reliable.
• An increase in the usable area is also possible when using window sills, especially wide ones. The latter can act as a bench, bookshelf, flower garden. If you expand them further, then you can install small boxes from below.
• In the Khrushchev, a pantry is often provided, which, if desired, can be converted into a full-fledged dressing room equipped with various storage systems, thereby freeing up space in the apartment.

Functional zoning

If you correctly approach the zoning of the premises, then the project of an apartment is 36 sq. m. is able, albeit visually, to add 10-20 extra squares, which, of course, will make you feel comfortable in your own home.

The main zoning techniques that will successfully help in designing a comfortable interior:

1. The use of finishing materials of different texture or color. The color of the walls can be one, but in the living area, for example, wallpaper with a pattern is glued, and tiles or decorative plaster are used in the kitchen to match them. Colored walls effectively divide the space, and the shades can be both contrasting and smoothly flowing into each other.
2. Combined flooring. Laminate or carpet can be laid in the living area, and tiles in the kitchen and hallway. In the room, the living room and bedroom area can also be divided using carpets, putting a bright large one near the sofa, and a plain and small one near the bed.
3. A split-level floor or ceiling can separate a room from a kitchen or hallway, in particular, this technique is effective in a studio layout.
4. Backlight. Light sources located at different levels will help to correctly zone the space both in the studio and in a regular one-room apartment.
5. Partitions. In a small apartment, blind partitions should be abandoned in favor of sliding, glass, screens, textile curtains, etc.

Advice! Most efficiently tricks zoning work v complex.

The easiest way to zone a space is to use furniture. This can be either a rack that separates the sleeping place from the living room, or a sofa, dining table, wardrobe, armchairs, etc.

In a studio apartment, the bar counter located at the junction of the kitchen and the room helps to zone the space. It can be either deaf or with built-in drawers, lighting, etc. In the first case, a sofa can adjoin it from the side of the room, and chairs in the kitchen.

Mirrors effectively zone the space, which in a one-room apartment also work to visually expand the space.

Color spectrum

When drawing up a design project for a one-room apartment, the color scheme plays a primary role, and one should already build on it when choosing furniture and other interior items. The harmonious perception of the apartment will depend on the correctly selected colors, especially for small single-family women with an area of ​​up to 31 sq. m.

To make a one-room apartment seem more spacious, it is recommended to arrange it in light colors of restrained shades. The ideal solution is the white range (snow white, ivory, milk, pearl), which is suitable for walls and ceilings as well as for floors. White is neutral and can be easily combined with any shades. Therefore, it is not at all necessary to make the entire apartment snow-white, but there should be as many light areas as possible, and bright or contrasting colors should be used to emphasize functional areas or place accents (interior items, wallpaper, textiles).

It is better to refuse from bright and large drawings on the walls, having made a choice in favor of a monochromatic coating, separated by color accents or backlighting. It is best to choose a suitable warm tone of beige, cream, yellow, green for finishing, combining it with white or similar light or dark tones.

Bright colors can be used to highlight functional areas, for example, to paint one of the walls, partitions.
