housing - small-apt
The request :
Furnish day two spaces , living room and main lounge, contemporary style but with an authentic flavor . Make the most of the space to enter the largest collection of books and cds, dvds . Having a wet bar .
proposal:
The solution I propose reflects this particular environments and seeks to bind to each other through the same principle. This has been made possible by the use of materials : wood , which is present In furnishing such as finishes , coatings brick and color. The colors chosen are very basic, " eggshell " and " white milk " , but because of their simplicity are very elegant , also match well with the existing marble floor , finally manage to amplify the light and feeling of space .
The interventions are described below .
- Living :
I put a structure in this area plasterboard and wood, which is a fictitious separation and allows access to the apartment with a sort of "invitation", this console because not only defines the distributions of use, but is used to divide better paths , without taking space and light. It is a double-sided element , in such a way that even if it has an important structure is pleasant to the sight .
Given the large windows and the insertion of the radiators under them , I proposed to create a kind of wood trim that encompasses multiple functions. In this way, not only will you gain space, but are unable to obtain a container element infinite ( umbrella holder , shoe rack, document holder, cd , etc. . ) And also an exhibitor , a library and even a modern sitting , which is why I felt need to draw this element as a step structure , in which the first of these bases is placed in the sofa area , thus creating more places to sit and little corners of conversation.
Another action functional is the use of pre-existing niches . I used them to create the space between the plasterboard with the exhibitors, then with the aid of light create a dramatic effect warm and welcoming.
Also, trying to make the most of the space, in one of these new niches I inserted a session , so you can enjoy the view over the landscape in a direct manner .
Staying in this environment, the other ideas that I put at the type of furniture.
Because jobs plasterboard to create niches and the console , combined with carpentry work to create the structure copritermosifone can be a costly investment , I tried to work around the problem by using element " eco-friendly " , by inserting natural elements (such as strains of logs of trees for the coffee table of the living room) and recycled elements (such as pallets for sofas and industrial coil for the table ) . This style is proposed for the sessions , in fact consist of a wooden base on which the plays are stacked and fastened with belts and this type of stool despite being on the market (see table decoration 4) , may be reproduced without please take the capital.
To continue to provide more storage space , I have included a library for LED TV directly on the wall, like a painting.
In my view, this environment is current , modern, while remaining warm and welcoming , it stimulates the conviviality and serenity , ideal to be lived daily .
- Lounge & Lunch:
Here, too, I tried to create a balance between the old and the new. First, the great arch overlooking the kitchen is closed in half, as requested by the client, and created a wet bar , to create privacy in the kitchen board to place separations in wood, which can be exploited by providing them with shelves to hold glasses and bottles .
As a dining table that I set a very natural : two large logs make up the legs, and the boards of reclaimed wood construction form the support surface , all treated with walnut finish . In addition to furniture style natural dressoir I added a classic style and a mirror very country . These two elements are placed on the wall covered with brick, so that the styles bind .
I wanted to divide the rooms and dining hall for function , that I recreated the arc are in the living room, while remaining open so there is a better distribution of uses .
The living room is the most private part of the living area , therefore I waxed enter sofas and chairs , facing each other, just to look for that sense of private .
To continue the discussion of the stay, here are proposed solutions adopted to cover the radiators , then create a library with wooden cabinet .
The wall where the cabinets were provided in the image , I placed a shelf formed by the axes of recovery (like the dining table) .
With these solutions, I tried to create a living area and contemporary style , retaining the authentic flavor . (like Frodo Baggins in rock version ) .
