Studio apartments, the walls of which are practically absent, are gaining more and more popularity. The whole apartment is a large multifunctional room, which is quite fashionable and interesting recently. Often people decide to combine the kitchen with the living room. In the studio apartment this option is provided. In the ordinary, it will be necessary to demolish the wall, which means that permission from the relevant authorities will be required. Thoroughly thought out the interior, you can create an original design that can impress both the owners and their guests.

Features of combination

If we talk about an ordinary apartment, then the living room and kitchen represent two different rooms that need to be combined. This can only be done if the wall is not a bearing, and the demolition will not harm the design of the residential building. For dismantling, it is necessary to obtain permission from a state organization, unauthorized structural changes are prohibited. This dismantling will not go unnoticed, so it will be stupid to cunning, because in this case penalties will be imposed, and the wall will have to be returned to its original position for its money.

When the wall is demolished, the kitchen remains in the same place, since all communications are located in that place and it is not worth transferring them, since this does not make practical sense. Moreover, moving communication systems will incur additional financial costs. Thoroughly thought out the interior can make it stylish, original and harmonious, and 20 squares is enough to create two functional zones.

Planning rules

Most designers advise to allocate only a fifth of the total area of ​​the room to the kitchen, and give the rest to the living room, since this is where guests, children and other household members will be.

It is important to consider a number of rules and design recommendations in order not to create piles:

  • Near the kitchen surfaces you need to create free space, the distance should be more than a meter.
  • The sink, stove and refrigerator are best placed as close as possible so that they are within walking distance.
  • The lighting system must be carefully thought out, both areas of the room must have individual lighting.
  • The dining table is best used as a dividing line between two zones.
  • Using glossy surfaces and mirrors, you can visually increase the size of the room, which is relevant for an area of ​​20 square meters.

Zoning Methods

You can divide a room into two functional zones using:

  • Fake drywall septum. For a more interesting look, you can make it a bizarre geometric shape.
  • Bar counter. This is a stylish and functional option, the rack design can be absolutely anything, the materials are best chosen in accordance with the style.
  • Sliding partition. This option is the most interesting and practical, because at the right time the space can be divided and then combined again.
  • A multi-level floor, placing the kitchen or living room slightly higher, as if on a podium.
  • Colors and materials.
  • Lighting.
  • Aroc, wooden elements.
  • Sofas or sofa.

Finishing Features

Twenty square meters is a very small area, so you should pay special attention to the decoration of the room. It is best to use light colors that can visually increase the size of the room. The floor can be made a little darker, the ceiling and walls are best done in beige or white. Contrast color solutions can only be used as inserts, focusing on the details. Dark tones, on the contrary, can visually “steal” several meters, so it is better to abandon them.

If the floor is chosen monophonic, it is better to use a laminate, and put a stylish carpet near the sofa. If the flooring differs in different zones, then in the living room it is best to lay a carpet, but the kitchen should be tiled.

The right selection of furniture

Kitchen furniture is best installed in a line or the letter "G". Thus, space is used as efficiently as possible. A large headset is better not to install, as it clutters up the space. It is best to give preference to hanging drawers and cabinets, the height of which will reach the ceiling.

The kitchen wall can be selected in one color with a sofa or other furniture, which is the main thing in the room. Using yellow or green furniture, you can distribute accents, make a bright contrast between the interior and furniture. It is better to buy a dishwasher built-in, and choose a table and chairs depending on the interior of the room.kuhnya_gostinaya_20_kv_m_060 kuhnya_gostinaya_20_kv_m_069 kuhnya_gostinaya_20_kv_m_070

The recreation area also does not need to clutter up with an abundance of furniture, there is enough sofa, a couple of armchairs and a coffee table. For the functionality of the space, you can use wall shelves, a TV is also better to hang on one of the walls. If you have to sleep in the living room, it is best to use folding models of sofas. The sofa is best placed opposite the TV so that it is turned back to the kitchen. As curtains, it is best to use transparent curtains, tulle or roll models that can be used to regulate natural light.
