For the first time, cottages began to appear in the cities of England, they were small one-story houses that were built for the family. Often the attic was equipped with an attic, due to which the usable area of ​​housing was increased. The average area of ​​the cottage was about one hundred square meters.

Now everything is a little different, modern building options have a number of differences compared to the classic idea of ​​cottages. Now they are residential buildings that can be built both in the city and somewhere beyond its line, and the size of the cottage can reach three hundred square meters. Now all modern buildings are equipped with comfortable communication systems, a territory is equipped near the house, they have become more functional and practical.

Tree

Wood materials are classic for building cottages. For walls, it is best to use ordinary or rounded timber, logs.

Consider the options of wooden cottages:

  • Log, chopped. Affordable options, especially if the house is out of town, closer to the forest areas. For low thermal conductivity it is better to use a columnar foundation. The lack of a house in its short service life, high fire hazard.
  • Cottages from timber. A simple and convenient option, it is built quickly, however, and is expensive.
  • The rounded bar. Beautiful, durable and safe cottage, but very difficult to build and has a high price.

Brick

A brick cottage is not a cheap option, but a long service life fully justifies it. The only trouble can happen if the installation rules are not followed. Particular attention should be paid to the foundation, its proper installation. In order for the foundation to be stronger, reinforcement must be carried out.

In general, the brick house is fireproof, durable and reliable. The only, but very sharp drawback of such a building is its heating in winter. Brick is very difficult to warm up, so here you need to carefully think through the heating system, pay special attention to it and spend a lot of money. In addition, you need to take care of additional thermal insulation both inside and outside the house.

Foam concrete

Foam concrete is a modern material used for the construction of cottages, which has several advantages. In such a house it will always be warm and safe in terms of possible fires. In addition, it is worth noting that the cost of the material is lower than that of brick, which also positively affects the choice of buyers. The only drawback that many will be disappointed with is the fragility, since the service life of the material is very limited, and the strength is getting worse every year.

Roof

Depending on the geometric shape of the roof, they are divided into:

  • Shed - a flat surface that rests on walls of different heights, the cost of such a roof is very small, but the attic can not be built under it.
  • Gable - the most popular option, the roof is divided into two planes, like a triangle. Original and interesting roofs externally, under them you can build an excellent attic.
  • Tent - usually used for square-shaped houses, such a roof is good for protection from the vagaries of the weather in the form of rain and snow.
  • Hip - use where there is constant strong winds, you can equip the attic, but it will not be large, and a roof of 4 planes is going to.
  • Multi-forceps - looks like a broken polygon.Complex in terms of construction, it is difficult to build, but it is worth it, since the appearance will pleasantly surprise everyone.
  • Dome and conical - options that are not used very often. Such roofs look stylish and original, suitable for houses that have a circular shape, however, to build and lay such a roof is a very difficult task.
  • Broken - used to cover the attic. The sloping roof includes two slopes at a large angle of break, the support is made on the pediments. The best option if you plan to actively use the attic.
  • Combined - represent a roof that combines several of the proposed options.

In general, the type of roof you need to choose, given the shape of the cottage and its area, in addition, you need to focus on the climatic features of the area where the house will be built.

After the shape of the roof has been selected, you need to determine the material that will be used for the coating. Now, the choice of the buyer offers a variety of materials that have their own characteristics and prices. In general, all options can be divided into sheet and piece.

Sheet - these are materials that are produced in the form of a sheet, these include metal tile, asbestos-cement slate, corrugated board, ondulin and rebate roofing.

Slate, although it has a number of advantages, but it is better not to use it, since it is dangerous in environmental terms. Also, all of the above materials have one drawback - with their help you can not create a complex structure.

Piece pieces are small elements that are specially designed to cover the roof. Often they look beautiful, allow you to create complex geometric structures, with virtually no waste.

Shingles made of different materials can be classified as piece materials: ceramics, cement, slate and bitumen.

Layout of the cottage

First of all, you need to determine the number of floors, and then divide the house into functional zones. If the cottage has two floors, it is better to make the first floor a living area and arrange walk-through rooms there, which are constantly used (kitchen, living room, bathroom for guests), and on the second floor it is better to equip bedrooms, children's rooms.

In general, the number of rooms and their functionality directly depends on the preferences of the owner, the number of family members and their social status. In order to choose the optimal type of cottage and make it as functional as possible, you need to decide whether there will be guests here, what basic functions are assigned to the house.
