Very often, designers, wanting to increase useful area, use one method – use a balcony or loggia for this. As a rule, these meters are used for gathering of various things, most often unnecessary. It will be much more practical to use the balcony as a small cabinet, a separate corner for relaxation. Moreover, it doesn’t matter at all where it is located.
For example, in the bedroom – you get a chic cabinet and an additional own space; in the nursery – a separate area for the desktop or installation of some simulators; in the living room – another sleeping place will not hurt. It is better to entrust the attachment of a balcony to the room to the designers-designers. At first they will make a project of future space, given all the features and architecture of the building, and the existing room. Then the materials for insulation and finishes, various cute little things for comfort and furniture will be selected.
Of course, if you have an artistic taste, or draw information in printed, Internet publications, then you can repeat what you can and you like. But all the same, you will need to know how to make a rework correctly. Firstly, it will be necessary to thoroughly warm the room – it can be a warm floor (it will be enough to maintain a comfortable temperature even in the cold season), mineral wool in layers, vapor barrier. Secondly, the insulation of balconies and loggias should be carried out only by safe materials – non -toxic, non -combustible. And then, you must definitely think over the shift of the windows.
If you plan to make an additional room from the balcony, you will need to provide protection from street noise and cold. For this you will need to install plastic windows. Moreover, they will need to be chosen with special care – take into account the number of cameras in the bag and the color of the glass (it can be slightly tinted or mirror), and even a shade of plastic. Do not forget that it will be necessary to choose a fittings corresponding to the general style, and in advance to decide in advance which sash will be the most convenient for you – folding or rotary.
Do not worry that when giving colorful plastic or tinted glass, you will spend a fairly large amount – the cost of plastic windows is quite democratic even with all the innovations. Designers argue that an increase in space even by one and a half a meter brings a certain originality and a feeling of freedom to the overall interior. And psychologists say that a personal account can be a great place for relaxation and relaxation from everyday bustle. Maybe you should look at the balcony differently?
