Arrangement of a multifunctional lounge

We all imagine a relaxation room in different ways. For some, a soft sofa and a TV are enough; others need a fireplace and comfortable chairs. Someone does not imagine a living room without a reading corner and book racks, while others have nowhere to put a pool table or workplace for a home office or creative area. The difficulty of filling the rest room with all kinds of functions lies in the fact that our homes have various reserves of space. In a city standard apartment there is literally nowhere to turn around and the living room is most often limited to a standard set of upholstered furniture and a TV zone. But in private houses of urban and suburban type is already easier - there is the possibility of arranging additional premises - attics and basements. Only at first glance it seems that from dark and uninhabited rooms it is difficult to get a comfortable and cozy room for rest or a game zone. We will demonstrate to you with the help of photos of interesting design projects that there is nothing impossible if you show patience, make efforts and, of course, invest financially.

Combining a lounge with a study area is a frequent welcome for designers and homeowners. Firstly, modern home offices do not require large space, it is enough to install a narrow desk or a small console, put a laptop, an armchair and a mini-office in the living room. Secondly, many owners place racks for books and stationery in the living room, storage systems for all kinds of papers and documents, which will be very convenient when conducting the work process in the lounge.

In the living room, where the working area of ​​the home office or place for creativity is located, you can zone the room in several ways - using decoration, for example, highlighting an accent wall, carpet, for example, it is in the living area and is not in the working and with the help of lighting: working area It is illuminated by a table lamp or lamp, built-in lighting, and a chandelier provides illumination of the central recreation area.

Not many households have the opportunity to allocate a separate room for a billiard room, for example. In this case, you can find the possibility of placing the game area in the living room. Shared rooms in private houses are usually the most spacious and the installation of a pool table or air hockey does not significantly affect traffic in the living room. In front of you is a living room decorated in blue tones. Light and laconic atmosphere of the lounge room calmly transferred the integration of a dull billiard table made of dark wood.

Another example of a living room in a country house, in whose interior the game area blends in very organically. A billiard table with light gray cloth was harmoniously integrated into the color scheme in pastel colors. The location of the table is very convenient in that players can easily communicate with those who are sitting on the couch or in an armchair and watching TV or just talking among themselves.

A billiard table with carved decor fits perfectly into the interior of the country-style lounge. Not only the abundance of wooden surfaces and the active use of a warm natural color palette creates a cozy and comfortable atmosphere of the living room and play area, but also upholstered furniture with leather upholstery, warm retro-style carpets and family photos on the walls.

If your country house or private household located in the city has an unfinished basement, then this must be fixed.The useful space of the basement, which until now was used to store all kinds of trash, can become a game room for the whole family. Imagine what opportunities open up for children and adults, guests of your home. The minimum cost of finishing that you can do yourself, a lighting system and a couple of game tables - that's all you need to transform the old and dark basement.

A play area or library is hard to say at first glance at this room. One thing is obvious, homeowners managed to organically combine two of their addictions - to books and billiards.

It is wonderful if in a suburban or urban private house there is an opportunity to allocate a separate room for arranging a game room. A billiard or tennis table, air hockey or a small area for board games - all these central elements of the interior will need appropriate attributes. A small sofa or mini-chairs, frameless poufs or bar stools at the bar - depending on the amount of free space, a recreation area can be organized in many ways. But no matter what the specifics of the games in your relaxation room are, good lighting at all levels will be needed in any case.

It happens that the meaning of the phrase “game zone” takes on a different meaning when it comes to playing musical instruments. In such cases, the choice for organizing a rehearsal room is to find the room that is most successful in terms of acoustics and to lay the necessary sound insulation. As for the design of the space in which the entire creative process will take place, it all depends on what inspires you, what colors energize and help keep you in good shape. Or maybe you, on the contrary, need a calm and neutral palette of design of the workshop in order to be distracted from the most important thing - your own creativity.

Not only in a country house, but also in urban apartments, many homeowners cannot imagine a living room without the possibility of observing the dance of fire sparks. The fireplace in the relaxation room not only symbolizes the hearth and gathers all family members and around the fire to mentally (and sometimes physically) warm up, cleanse thoughts and emotions, relax after a hard day and gain strength for new achievements. The living room with fireplace is more comfortable and warmer in every sense of the expression. Often it is the hearth that becomes the focus of attention of all those entering the room.

But there are also such lounges, where you notice the fireplace, almost in the last turn - the situation is very extravagant. For example, the use of original designer furniture of an outlandish form and texture overshadows the originality and vivid paintings on the walls, and unusual lamps, and accents in the decoration.

In this living room, the fireplace was not destined to become a focal point and focus on yourself, because most of the walls of a fairly spacious living room are occupied by a wine cabinet with transparent doors that allow you to see the entire collection of noble drinks. Using the stone-like finish, it was possible to recreate some semblance of the atmosphere of wine cellars with their coolness and a very special color.

Modern technologies allow us to arrange a real mini-cinema in our own home. If for most homeowners there is enough TV-zone in the living room, for others you need a separate room where the owners and their guests can enjoy watching the video in conditions close to a real visit to the cinema. Roomy soft sofas and armchairs help to comfortably accommodate in such lounges, modern technology conveys the picture “like a living one”, and the sound organization system is more than realistic.With the help of multi-level lighting, you can create the lighting you need for each individual case, and therefore the atmosphere.

A home cinema can differ from an ordinary living room with a TV only in the capabilities of modern technology and their size. In some cases, the bet is on the quantity.

Many believe that the most important thing in a lounge with a TV is a soft and comfortable sofa. It’s hard to disagree. But in addition to comfortable furniture, an important and pleasant looking interior decoration, comfortable coasters or low tables, lighting systems, with which you can change not only the brightness and intensity of the light flux, but also the very atmosphere of the room.

Returning to the topic of arranging uninhabited basements, a home theater is perfect for such a room. Comfortable soft chairs with adjustable backrest, state-of-the-art technology, a small bar counter with stools for taking drinks or light snacks, and a pleasant atmosphere created by universal decoration and a varied lighting system.

Many homeowners logically believe that there is no need to empty the walls in the living room - why not fill them functionally by placing book shelves. The result is a completely harmonious combination of recreation and reading areas in the same room. If there is no TV in the lounge, then nothing will interfere with book lovers. If a TV zone is present, then households will need to find a compromise in the use of certain zones of the common room.

How to make the interior of a snow-white living room, in which all the cabinet and built-in furniture shines with whiteness, really bright and juicy? Add modular upholstered furniture and vibrant book spines to open storage racks.

For many families, the recreation room is a kind of symbiosis of several key areas for any home - the kitchen, dining room and living room. Most often this happens in spacious rooms of country houses or in city apartments, designed as studios. It seems that it is extremely difficult to place furniture, appliances and related attributes for such different functional segments of the dwelling in one room. In fact, the absence of partitions and doors between zones only makes the task easier for designers and homeowners, providing more opportunities for the ergonomic arrangement of work areas, storage systems, cabinet and upholstered furniture.

In modern design projects, the functionality of certain zones of a spacious room is often blurred. In one room there are worktops and storage systems for the kitchen set, but there is no dining area, but there is a relaxation segment with upholstered furniture and a coffee table. Nobody complies with the canons, the whole situation is subordinated only to the ease of use, as seen by the owners of an apartment or house.

With the help of original finishes, skillful selection of furniture and bold color solutions, you can independently plan the interior design of your relaxation room, which will be not only convenient and comfortable, but also outwardly attractive, unique. For example, a living room in a marine style, in the setting of which not only characteristic color techniques are used, but marine symbols and paraphernalia are used, which is called “full”. Upholstered furniture in blue tones against the backdrop of snow-white walls, striped textiles, lifebelt pillows, seascapes and photos of ship tackle - everything in this relaxation room works to create an atmosphere with marine motifs.

The bright, colorful interior of the relaxation room can also be obtained in a room with a neutral finish. Using armchairs with leather upholstery in saturated colors, an original wall decor, a designer chandelier, colorful textile of pillows, windows and carpet, you can get a truly original living room design, memorable and non-trivial.

In the relaxation room, you can prove yourself as a designer and embody long-standing desires in the atmosphere of a recreation area. For example, use a huge antique suitcase as a coffee table and, of course, an art object, use fur covers for sofas or armchairs, or maybe hang deer horns on a wall. The interior of the living room will depend on your preferences, courage and financial capabilities - at the junction of these three components you can create a lot of interesting incarnations, images and your own styles.

On the issue of arranging semi-basement rooms and basement levels - the next image of a relaxation room was created in such a space. The original finish with deliberately not aligned snow-white walls found the owl a continuation in the carpet of a similar shade with a long pile. And upholstered furniture in chocolate tones, original coasters and bright pillows made up the atmosphere of the recreation area.

The following three images of lounges with many related functions are also located in the basement, but the lack of large windows and natural light does not prevent them from amazing us with a comfortable and cozy atmosphere, pleasant finishes and attractive color palette.
