new apt. 1

Briefing

Loft. New York Style loft or apt. Very Stylish but cozy and relax. Brick walls and wood items mostly in the living room.

Family:
4, two boys, 2.5 years + 6 years + us ( me and wife )

Plan documents:
1. Planimetry
2. Planimetry
3. Actual planimetry with measures
4. Option 1 suggested
5. Option 2 suggested
6. Option 3 suggested

Option 3 is more preferred from these options as it takes a bit and not a lot space from the
living area and gives space to the next bedroom witch is a kids bedroom in all the plans but as I explain later
I would like to use that room as the couples bed room instead. This is to give children more space.

If anything better is suggested, more than welcome. A good balance between space and storage.

These options are made by a friend of mine, architect but that
hos no time to follow my work. I need a big living room but a big
bed room for my kids also. I am ok to give a bit from living room
to the next room, a bit max, but also smth different from the proposition
is that I may use the small room next to the living room as a bed room
for me and my wife and use the third room for the kids bed room.

In the case of having the 3rd bedroom for me I can use that for the kids also in a
case of good organising. The options proposed means that must take down two
walls. I have the permission to do that.

Open for better suggestions.



Needs:
1. Most of all is using the space at its best. I like to use every meter square properly.
2. I like space but i am aware of the apt size. its only 123 m2.
3. I have uploaded the planimetry and 3 already suggestions from my architect friend. I want to
know if there is a better idea out there on using the space better.
4. You will find the plans also with measures.
5. Sound proof walls, at least between bedrooms. Two boys in the house.
6. Great lighting system, spots preferably and a lot of light in the kitchen area table. Can be used
depending on the event, eating or even home work for kids or collection work time.
7. Brik walls in the living room. Love the bricks and wood.
8. Huge book shelf. A lot of books and albums and collection albums
stamps, postcards etc.
9. Big 55' or 60' on the wall and all the other electronic tv or satellite all hidden in the back of the TV.
10. Great window system and curtains also for the rooms and te balconies.
11. No need for a bath tub. Just glass showers and the toilet next to the bedroom.
12. I like dark colours in general.
13. The air conditions are 3 pieces and I took out two of the bed rooms so I may
replace those from the ones up to down ones and flat. The place of the big one in the
kitchen can also change place if better proposed some where else.
14. I will change the tiles of the bathrooms, doors, windows and will put wood floors al over or imitation of wood.
( u propose the colours).
