New Home Design: Tricks and Ideas for Efficiency

There are many ways to improve the design of the house without increasing the size and thus cost. Using logic and reusable space techniques, you can increase the usefulness of the house plan and still keep construction costs under budget.

How do we define the space

area should be defined in order to use it ... not only are the dimensions. Some rooms have volume rooms and dining rooms, while others are linear rooms such as bedrooms. Still others are combinations such as the sobe.Definicije apply to the premises on how to use the room. Taking this a step further, using a room shall be based on the furniture we place in it. Let me explain.

is the volume of the dining room, dining room table because it says so. Table is located in the middle of the room with little need for wall prostor.Spavaća room is a linear space, because furniture is on the walls. Linear spaces requiring wall prostor.Velika room is a combination of space and because there is little in the way of furniture placement.

multiple use of the same space

There are several ways you can use the same space for multiple functions. In a previous article, I used the example of lower-level processing and how that space properly can actually save on construction costs. Although this solution may not be applicable to all design, it is for many.

One of my other favorite examples is in the master bedroom. I like to use what I like "master bedroom corridor" to combine the traffic patterns for the area in one place. Part of the reason it works so well is to understand the traffic patterns of all the rooms ... In this case, the main bedroom. If you divide the traffic patterns, to save space ... and prices. In the master bedroom, you have 4 traffic patterns. You enter the apartment, the door of the room, the entrance to the bathroom and the closet door (s). That's a lot of design, you'll see in the bedroom and suite entry point will be the same door, but then the rest are separated. This means that the space in and out of these points are dysfunctional as they are effective in their use. What I do is place the door match the approach which I call the foyer of the master suite. To lobby the WIC (e) in front, and a bathroom and a bedroom on either side, so the floor space will all be the same. This will save a lot of floor space and make the design more effective master suite. Please note, space is defined by way of space use, as described earlier.

Walk-in cabinets take up less space than a linear

is a spinoff of the use of walk-in closets-linear instead of wardrobes. I always try (in fact, really difficult) to do all my designs. Why? This is an excellent example of effective use of space. Take a typical layout of linear closet about 8 feet in length. That could mean about 6 m at the door, and usable floorspace njih.Vrata front cover all the wall space, so you need to put more wallspace furniture. Now, move the wall of a closet door on him in room (making the actual room dimensions less ). It gives you the WIC .. and you pick up all the wall space lost in the closet door ... i have more closet space too. Making room less you are actually creating useful space in your room major . The room then functions as a larger room, at no cost.

did not cost a lot to say? Wrong. If this room is located on the 2nd floor, to accommodate 3 ft dresser in the bedroom closet with a linear, you may need to make the room bigger, ... and rooms in the floor beneath it, ... and the ground underneath it too. This could turn out to be quite expensive dresses.

Remember the golden rule (e)

follow the money. This applies to your design solutions.
