How Floor Plans Influence Your Choice of Home
If you have been to different houses to buy, you must have come to the conclusion that the house plan plays an important role in the beauty and efficiency of the house. If we ignore criteria such as neighborhood and building life, what distinguishes two houses, for example, one hundred meters, is the design of their interiors. Where the rooms are located, what space is allocated to the kitchen, and which spaces are illuminated. All of these can influence your choice. The standard house plan is a plan that pays attention to all these things and observes the principles of relations between spaces. But what are these principles? In this article, we want to answer this question to some extent.
Home entrance: The entrance to the house, is a very small space behind the entrance to the house. This space should not have access to private areas of the house such as bedrooms, bathrooms and living rooms. In fact, the entrance to the house should be designed in such a way that if the guest or a stranger enters it, the privacy of the members of the house will not be harmed. You should be able to invite your neighbor to the entrance of the house and not worry about the possibility of harassing the residents of the house. The entrance to the house should be as big as a shoe rack and a wall mirror. If the area allows, it is better to install guest toilet in this part of the house.
Living room: The living room is a semi-private environment and should be designed in such a way that if a guest comes to you, family members can still continue their work there without dealing with the guest. Unfortunately, this area has been removed from many apartment plans due to the declining area of houses. But if you are planning to buy or build a house, try to go for plans that have such a space embedded in them. The living room is actually the environment where most of the family members spend their time. It does not have to be large, but it should be in a way that a sofa and a TV can be placed on it. Usually between 20 and 30 square meters seems suitable for this space. This environment should not be directly connected to the entrance of the house, but should have direct access to the kitchen and bedrooms.
Kitchen: The kitchen is one of the busiest environments in the house and therefore it should be designed with great care. Food preparation has many steps, each of which requires special equipment. If the kitchen is small or not well designed, it will clutter the cook during these steps. The kitchen should be designed in such a way that the work triangle between the stove, refrigerator and dishwasher is observed. These three points are the most used points of the kitchen between which a person constantly moves during the day. If the kitchen space is small or linearly designed, the constant movement between these three points will certainly be annoying. In the standard plan of the house, the kitchen space is considered to be about 12 to 15 square meters.
