We continue our tradition of searching andpublications of interesting buildings and plans. This two-story house has three comfortable bedrooms, two bathrooms, a beautiful interior, which you can’t tell from the outside. The flexibility, efficiency and simplicity of this house attract at first sight. The exterior of the building does not show anything special, and the open plan will be understandable even to a child. The gaze immediately catches the large windows, bringing a lot of light into the interior space, in the interior of which the purity of white prevails. In its entire appearance, this house resembles a ship with several decks, sailing on a calm sea under the light breaths of the sea breeze.
Flower beds with greenery on the open balcony of the secondfloors perfectly demonstrate the designers' desire for ecology and unity with nature. The interior space is not wasted: the refusal of the hallway as a separate room in this layout looks like the right decision. Bookshelves right at the entrance suggest that this is a library. The huge living room here is combined with the kitchen. You can enter the bathroom both from the living room and from room number 3, which, if necessary, can be used as a guest room with its own bathroom.
On the second floor, in addition to large openplatforms, there is a master bedroom and a bathroom. There are many windows on the stairs, so artificial lighting is not needed there at all. Another advantage of this house is that it is very cheap to build, and all materials are widely available. Including solar panels, which classify this building as energy-efficient housing. And the roof design involves collecting rainwater in one place for watering green spaces. Editorial opinion: - In our latitudes, few people decide on houses with a flat roof, thinking that there will be too much snow in the winter, and too much water from the rain in the summer. In fact, if the roof is made correctly, there will be no problems. Of course, for our weather conditions, it is better to make the roof without sides, so that it is easier to clear the snow if necessary (in very snowy winters, this is done 1-2 times during the entire season). It is also recommended to cover the roof with turf so that in the summer it serves as a natural protection for the house from overheating, and also absorbs water (at the same time, moisture protection of the roof and properly made drainage are arpiori).
