The increase in living space for apartments in old houses

We are fortunate (or, rather, no luck) to live in old apartments with huge, 4-5 meters above the ceilings , know that our house seems spacious and large only for prying eyes, for those who have all theira life lived in the Khrushchev and prefabricated houses.Actually, it is uncomfortable, some furniture in it does not deliver, she seems tiny and irrelevant, but if we take the area of ​​our apartments (typically "cut" into autonomous little rooms of the former communal), it turns out that it is not much.So nothing to envy, it does not look.

It really turn any like ours, and therefore our own, a house in a truly luxurious apartment.This, of course, require money, but any costs for upgrading will be many times cheaper than moving to a new apartment or house.

Well, one should start with the fact that we have to present their two-story apartment.The proposed scheme perfectly explains how to turn the disadvantages of our high ceilings to the unquestionable advantage, making our two-story apartment.Not all, of course, because they live under the ceiling, which at one point drop to 2-2.5 meters, is hard enough.

That is why the proposed option implies that you divide the apartment into two parts: one part will remain the same as before, and there you place the living room, studio or room, which in Russia is called "hall".In the second part, place those premises and rooms, which ceilings meanness is not particularly scary: kitchen and dining room, bathroom and bedroom, library, gym, nursery and office.

All you need for the repair in its simplest form - the design of the iron beams, which will be the basis of all reconstruction, planks and beams for laying floors and plasterboard for walls, excellent sound insulation that you provide a variety of advanced materials,which can be purchased at any hardware store.

Everything else will depend already exclusively on your imagination and the money that you can devote to a full conversion of your apartment.The main thing - to be decided then to begin to change their housing, and with it all his life.And if suddenly some of his own ideas you would not have, you will always find them on our website.
