Often, dreams are far from harsh reality, and very many families have to live in the same Threesome, four of them, and even inilt, hoping for fast changes. And very often, waiting for change is delayed for many years. What to do? How to equip housing so that there was a place in it not only for adults, but also for children? The most common option to arrange a one-room apartment for accommodation of different generations is the division of it on the zone
We are advised by Designer Tatyana Tkachuk, she will tell about his project of the design of a one-room apartment in which four people immediately live: two adults and two baby preschool age.
- The main wish of customers was accommodation in the singular room, which is 13.8 square meters. m, two zones: nursery with two beds and adult, which will combine the functions of the bedroom and the living room. Only at first glance it sounds unrealistic, but we have found a solution to this problem. It came to the rescue small-sized furniturewhich is literally created in order to save precious space for life, "said Designer Tatyana Tkachuk. In order to share our room for two independent zones and ensure their privacy, it was decided to take advantage of the sliding partition.
Planning room solution in one room apartment
Children's zone The children's zone is placed near the window. It turned out to be very colorful due to the use of bright children's furniture, as well as photo wallpaper with a fabulous pattern. It was decided not to use a bunk bed, since the children are still too small to use it, and install the retractable (dying) bed.
This is a two-tier bed, the lower level is extended from under the top. An important advantage of using such a bed is a special compactness, because in the assembled form it takes the same place as a bed, calculated on one child. Such a bed will be an excellent solution for the nursery, the dimensions of which do not allow to place two independent beds, where the use of a bunk bed is impossible for various reasons. The lower bed is equipped with picky mechanism In wheel supports that provide easy transformation of the bed. Additionally, such a bed is equipped with bed storage boxes. There are models of such beds, calculated even on three children.
Adult zone In the decoration of the walls of an adult zone, catchy and ornaments are not used, the brightness of the interior managed to achieve using photo printing on one of the facades of the wardrobe. The macro image of the flowering poppy brings the color in the interior and creates a special mood and atmosphere in this part of the room. The second facade of the wardrobe mirror, it will contribute to the expansion of the space of this zone.
The adult area is furnished with a folding sofa and a compact magazine table. TV is suspended on the wall. The wall on which it is located is framed by natural bamboo wallpaper coinciding on the tone with outdoor coating. This makes the interior more completed, holistic and one.
Crumb-kitchen The kitchen area is small and only 5.4 square meters. m. Therefore it was very important to equip its space as much as possible.
On the right wall of the kitchen is a M-shaped kitchen set. It was possible to place a full-fledged cooking panel for four burners, a brass cabinet and a microwave. Facades headset different colorThe combination of snow-white and salad colors brings freshness and dynamics to the interior.
Probably, every family dreams of his own apartment so that it has a comfortable kitchen, a separate bedroom, a spacious children's, living room. But how often our dreams are far from real life ...Often, we have to get rid of small rooms in three, four of us, in the hope of change. How to accommodate the whole family in one room? How to organize space correctly, so that everything is comfortable and convenient? Yes, these questions suggest a certain answer - it is necessary not to be placed, but to expand your living conditions! Thinking about how to make everyone in one room, but about how to buy a more spacious apartment. All this, of course, so. But sometimes waiting for changes for several years. And so that this expectation of the best times was comfortable and convenient, you need to try to organize space so that in a small "odd shop" could live, and not survive.
Take for example a standard family - Mom, Dad, small child And a schoolboy. You need to place four people in the same room, organize all sleeping places, a gaming zone for a baby and a place for schoolboy. What could be options?
We divide the room for zones
Frequently found option in one-room apartments - dividing the room into two zones - adult and nursery. In the "adult" part of the room you can put a double bed for parents or folding sofa, TV, computer, wardrobe, bookshelves.In the "Children's" part lay a bunk bed, a rack with toys, a table for classes, a sports corner. You can visually divide the two zones with two different carpets on the floor (bright with funny drawings - for children, more relaxed neutral colors - for adults). You can save the room different wallpaper by zones. Thus, in the same room we will get two separate rooms, even if you are not separated by the door.
Organize a sleeping place
For bedroom Parents There are three main options:- double bed
- folding sofa
- Lifting bed.
Bed with a lifting mechanism - an excellent solution for small room! First, the scarce place is saved. Secondly, adults sleep on a comfortable bed. Thirdly, the bed is folded on the day (it is cleaned into the closet or wall), without leaving children a single chance to jump on it during the day!
Lifting beds can be double, single and one-time. So such a folding bed can be ordered and schoolboy.
So, we dealt with adults. How to place two children for the night in the "Oder"? For a newborn baby, you can hang the cradle next to the parent bed. She will not take so much space in the room like a cot. In addition, in such cradle, according to statistics, babies sleep better than in the cribs. If you hang it on the side of the bed, where my mother sleeps - she can swing her in a dream, lulling the baby. When the baby sleeps next to her mother, at a distance of an elongated arm, his mother is easier to hear his hungry squeak and feed before he wakes the rest of the family. In such a cradle, the baby will be comfortable to sleep until 6-8 months, then it's still better to shift it into a separate bed (or in the bed of parents, if they are not against joint sleep with baby). And already years since 2-3, younger child can be moved to a bunk bed. Bunk bed - This is a real salvation for small rooms! After all, you get two baby beds that occupy places like alone!
Things, things ... where and how?
Vacuum bags - Real Must Have for Little Apartment. In vacuum packages, it is convenient to store "guest" blankets, blankets, pillows, bed linen that you do not use daily. In our family in winter, the entire summer wardrobe of two adults and two children is removed in 2 large vacuum packages, all excess air is suused with a vacuum cleaner. And two heavy, but thin "pancakes" are cleaned into the closet, occupying 10 times less placeThan all our sundresses and shorts would be occupied. In the summer, respectively, the whole winter adult and children's wardrobe moves to storage in vacuum packages - and on the mezzanine. Very comfortably! In such packages, you can store everything that is not used daily, but will be useful in the future: fabrics for needlework, children's things for the second child, etc. Saving places is colossal!Lamousing - One of the principles of the popular system of the Fly Lady economy. The more unnecessary things in the apartment - the less free space. This simple principle works in a huge 4-room apartment, and in a small "odnushka". Ruthlessly get rid of things, do not turn the apartment to the warehouse! Once a month, take time to arrange "Buggage Vui" on the Fly Lady system - turn on your favorite energetic music and walk with a big bag all over the apartment where you collect 27 things you did not use the last six months. If you doubt - you need it or not, it means that you do not need!
Personal drawer to each child - invention of one large mother (6 children). Each child is given a box that is stored under his bed. In this box in different compartments there are his toys, a book that a child is reading at the moment, homemade clothing, pajamas, clothes for a walk and clothes in kindergarten / guests / on classes. When the book is read - it is removed on the bookshelf or returns to the library, and another occupies its place. Clothing becomes dirty - goes to washing, a new set of clothes is put in the box, etc. Thus, in the personal drawer of each child there is a necessary set of clothes for all occasions, books and toys that are interesting to him now. And the children does not turn into deposits of clothes and toys.
The idea, in my opinion, interesting, but not everyone will suit the system. But a personal bookbird toys and a clothing box, issued to every child, will help get rid of the mess in the room. Boxes can be signed, stick funny stickers. And for the contents of the box, entrust follow the child yourself.
Do not forget about other rooms - Do not try to accommodate everything you need for life, in one room! After all, you still have a kitchen, a corridor and a balcony. Racks with books can be put in the corridor. There you can also store rarely used toys and board games, saving a place in the gaming area in the room. If the apartment has a balcony - there you can accommodate both the working corner for parents - the table, chair, laptop. On the balcony you can organize a sports corner for children - to suspend the rope, the ladder, lay small mats.
If the room does not have a place for a schoolboy table, then the place for classes can be organized in the kitchen. In this case, take care of a comfortable stool with a solid back, about the desk lamp for classes (for the right hand, we put the lamp on the left, for the left-hander - right). And, of course, carefully pick up the kitchen table before classes so that nothing distracts the schoolboy from homework.
Opinions: "When my older brother was born, my parents lived in a hostel. We lived fourwise in one small room. It was closely, but friendly. So lived most of the families of my girlfriends. And all gave birth - self, third child! I often visits the idea that if our parents had given such attention to square meters as the current youth, who had a motto: first his apartment, then a child, neither I nor many of my friends would simply appear on the light! Our parents, living in public utilities and hostels, chose life, not counting square meters and without making tragedies from the fact that the child has no room. It's closely not there, where there is little space, and where they give this value. "
"My opinion will probably be unpopular. Usually everyone remembers hard life in a close room, and then happy - in a large apartment. But when we lived in a feather (three children, I and my husband) in a one-room apartment, our relationship was much warmer and coarse. I always knew what "breathe" my children, what problems they have, interests. They were in sight. Also, the children were aware of all their homework. In my opinion, it is very much flattering and makes the family to the family! Now we live in a large four-bedroom apartment, each child has their own room. But we are still going in the evenings in the living room, drink tea, we communicate. Habit until stayed. "
Personal experience of one family. Alina, Mom Dima (7 years old) and Sasha (2 months): "We live in a two-room with my husband's mom. When we lived in the 16-meter room in the threesome, I was even scary to imagine how there you can accommodate the second child. In the room we have a sofa, on which we and I sleep, the bed of the son, corner and ordinary cabinets, a chest of drawers with a TV, a children's chest of drawers, corner desk With a huge office chair and bookcase penalties. Since the square is square, it was unreal to divide it into two zones. But thanks to this space in the middle of the room perfectly suitable for children's games. We are stuck in front of a Dimina Bed Carpet with Road Figure. Toys are located in boxes under the bed and a small shellazhik from IKEA. Nearby stood a children's table for classes, which, if necessary, could be moved to any part of the room. Long before the second pregnancy, I began to think about how to place the second child in our room, because it was the lack of space that was one of the obstacles to his birth. And when even one plan for permutation was born in my head, I realized that everything was really not terribly. The current version of the permutation appeared unexpectedly easily and quickly. First of all, it was decided to get rid of a large office chair in favor of a folding wooden chair. The whole left part of the room remained on the spot - the bed of the eldest son, his gaming carpet, cabinets and chest. The changes affected only several items at the window - changing the table, children's chest and book pencils and removing the middle of the room the rack with toys, we freed the place for a crib: she got into the legs of our sofa. So convenient to get up to the baby at night, not peeling to the floor. The children's table for summer classes is removed at all, especially since the Son has already grown out of it. And Ikeaevsky rack stood on the wheels to move throughout the room if necessary.
For a small child, it was necessary to think over and a place for swaddling, and a place to store hygiene and care objects. The first child I was pelenal on the dresser, the very thing that still stands in our room, the changing table was laid out on top. And all the necessary items were kept on a specially acquired plastic shelving on wheels. Now let yourself afford such a luxury, we could not - the folding changing table in the dresser would not let go to the bed, and the additional rack and would be more superfluous. Therefore, I chose a changing board installed on a crib across. At the time of sleeping baby, she is cleaned by the bed. You can equip a changing place in the bathroom - to arrange a changing mattress on a washing machine, and all the means of hygiene and care - on the shelf above it.
In September, the eldest son goes to school, so we need to think about the work of Dima. Angular computer desk We will replace the usual writing desk. A computer is placed on it, and there will be enough space for classes. The table is at the window for natural lightingAnd for evening classes, you will definitely get a desk lamp. "
To finish an article on an optimistic note, I want to recommend to all adults and children a stunning book, as it can not be more suitable for our topic - "Mom, Dad, Grandma, 8 children and a truck" Anna Katrina Westley. Incredibly friendly merry family with eight children lives in a studio apartment and does not know the grief! That's certain - in flavored, but not in the offense! All children sleep on the floor on the mattresses, and their village grandmother, when he came to visit them (by the way, hitchhiking!) Stacked at night on the kitchen table! This book greatly motivates to enjoy life here and now, in those square metersthat we have.
All nine months of waiting, I broke my head as my husband and two children would fit in one room. Yes, and many were asked here - how? The eldest then I have in a separate one, and the younger drop out early. At night, it sometimes wakes up to drink, and in general the control is needed. It was necessary to think about everything so that everyone has a place and not only sleeping. Chooms need to play somewhere It is necessary to fold things. Yes, and generally distribute everything so that the place remains and everything is at hand. We changed the sofa. I was huge (of course we loved him very much) Corner, but he held a bunch of space and to get into another part of the room, If he decomposed it was necessary to go sideways. Took this, in Eco-skin, so that if something goes out (and sheds often) it was possible to wipe and all. Mehanism accorder, by the way very satisfied with them.
And even in the disassembled form between the chest and the sofa, there is a place to take place for the balcony. Near the chest of drawers, where our husband's husband. Delighted the question of the beds for children. Little Aliska stood an ordinary children's wooden bed, which naturally also occupied a lot of places + more chest of drawers. Holded Beds - Transformers Such
But ... The company, where we ordered us failed when assembling it turned out that they were not those colors, not those models. After swearing, we returned money and in beds we were disappointed. And there are a lot of space in the beds, I'm not reliable there, the mechanisms are not reliable. They are consistent with quality. Sracking a bunch of options, it was decided to take the beds of Manezhi countro, only different models. However for Alice (it up to 3 years), the second for Alyosha (up to the year). That I am very pleased with them. The first they are mobile, folded easily in a small Bag and you can take to the country. Become on wheels, you can easily move around the room. Alisa, who did not like his old bed at all, immediately climbed into the new one and sleeps there with pleasure. And it's easy to download. If she begins to mess and cry, the foot, without getting up and everything.
here she, a changing table goes to her, as in Leschina, but I naturally removed it + vibration, night light and music, but we don't even use it. The one left her old one. It all stands together very compact. Due to Leschina bed
from her I generally balday. Here and the changing table
and comfortable holders for all kinds of need, all at hand
and this is such a cool lulychka, in which you can transfer Lyalka and put in any convenient place, to shift. There are also vibration, but we do not use it. And the hood, but at home he does not need it seems. Commercially, he also acquired his own, without a delay, but what for?))
such a chest of drawers (quarreled what is inverted)
here is such a rack, while the shelves are empty because Most of the toys were taken to the country, scene a lot, I am pleased with theaaaaa!
Well, I was lucky, one of our missure Masha (thanks again) I gave me a wonderful changing table, with a bathroom and shelves everything in one. The room stands at home, but will soon go with us to the cottage.. By the way, sooo comfortable! While we use them.
Well, in fact, our entire room is entirely 1 - a view from the door and 2 - from the window. The room left a bunch of places for games.
Well, a few extra .poto
and this yesterday brought
So we settled and live. Maybe it will be useful, I will be glad! Thanks for attention!
