Non-standard layout - not an excuse to abandon the original ideas in the interior of the apartment. We offer you to see one of the projects of the architects Marcos Gonzalez, Beatriz G. Casares, Carmina Casajuana. They had to design a really unusual apartment for a young Madrid bachelor: the height of the room reached 5 meters, and its area - only 21 square meters.
It would seem that such a high, but a small apartment can not match the idea of comfortable housing, but the original idea, proposed by professionals, showed that there are no unsolvable problems.
In a small apartment designers managed to place a bedroom, a living room, a kitchen, a study and a bathroom. The secret of a successful solution was to create a multi-level space. Several rooms, located one above another, are connected by means of stairs.
The authors of the project carefully thought over the arrangement of rooms on several levels. Entering the apartment, you find yourself in a small hallway, followed by a kitchen, combined with a dressing room. From the kitchen you can go down to the living room, and the brightest room, located at the top, is used as an office or rest room. You can only come up here on a staircase.
On the lower level there is a bathroom, and exactly under the living room is a pantry. Of course, the division into zones is largely conditional: the absence of walls and the same color design makes it possible to create a single harmonious space.
The original vertical layout not only helped to place everything needed in a small space, but also helped to cope with the lack of natural light. The presence of only one window made it impossible to divide the room into two full-fledged floors.
The use of white in the interior allowed to visually increase the space. To save light on the lower levels, designers used almost weightless staircases, consisting of only a few steps, without rails.
For some, the abundance of stairs may seem to be a drawback of the original layout of this apartment: for a day its owner has to climb and descend on them an unlimited number of times. However, the owner of the new-fashioned studio on the contrary regards this as an excellent training.
The result of the unusual decision of designers was a modern and comfortable apartment. It is not overloaded with furniture, but it has everything necessary for a young modern man to live. In general, the non-standard idea of creating zones at different levels allowed in an inconvenient at first glance room to accommodate everything necessary for a comfortable life.
