How many people, when renovating, waste a room in order to leave a second bedroom for relatives?
Netizen @欣欣: 120 square meters of three rooms, during the decoration, my mother-in-law insisted on leaving a second bedroom for my relatives, but I couldn't help it, but I stayed for two years, and my relatives didn't come to live once, I regret it!
In fact, if the family is a small family of two or three for a long time, there is really no need to sacrifice your sense of living experience because of your relatives.
1. The happiness after smashing the second bedroom
Many people will think that after smashing the second bedroom, will the house be impractical? But after reading the sharing of netizens, don't be too happy, okay?
Netizen @ A bowl of good porridge: My home is hardcover delivery, with a construction area of 130 square meters, more than 110 in the suite, and a small four rooms.
Many neighbors were too lazy to change it, and most of them moved in after buying furniture, but I couldn't, not only did I reinstall it, but I even smashed a second bedroom next to the living room, and sealed the balcony in.
In this way, the living room is directly two to three times larger, and with the sense of déjà vu of the large horizontal hall, the neighbors are envious and crazy after reading it.
The living room not only has sofas, TVs, and entertainment spaces, but also adds desks and open bookshelves, making it a two-in-one space for leisure + office, which is enough for adults to work and children to study in the later stage.
Netizen @ Satiety and hungry: My house has a construction area of 130 square meters, and the three-room explosion has been changed to two rooms, and my friend said that it seems to be a large flat floor.
Before the change, the living room was like this, although it was not small, but it was also cramped.
After smashing a wall, the small secondary bedroom was directly converted into an open cloakroom, and the lighting in the living room was not too good.
It's also a lot bigger.
What kind of second bedroom to prepare for relatives, I will talk about it when I live well!
Netizen @ A small ocean: When my house was renovated, my mother-in-law was resolutely opposed to me smashing the second bedroom, but I was determined, and I never regretted moving in for a year after opening up.
The only regret is that part of the wall between the second bedroom and the living room is a load-bearing wall, which can't be smashed, so I can only retreat to the second best place and make a half-wall design here.
But after moving in, I found that this is also very good, leaving half of the wall, the back side can be placed on the desk, more privacy, the front side can lean on the sofa, the sofa will not move around, it is also a "blessing in disguise".
Although there are only 99 square meters in the suite, who will come to my house and say that I have an area of 120 or 30 square meters?
Netizen @秦一: I really didn't expect that a small apartment can also have a 6-meter horizontal hall, my suite is only 84 square meters, the original living room area is less than 20 square meters, after the second bedroom is opened, it is directly expanded to 6mX6.4m, a full 38 square meters.
In order to reserve space for the TV, I specially smashed 2/3 of the partition wall, and the remaining 1/3 was just half of the TV background wall.
The half wall is rounded, and the top is also made of light strips, so that the wall does not look so heavy, and the overall effect is very satisfying.
2. What if you want to expand the living room space but don't want to waste a bedroom?
Some people say that these are all ideals, and there are always some families who can't completely abandon a bedroom and merge it into the living room, or want to take into account practicality under the premise of beauty.
In fact, the design of the following "multi-functional" rooms can also be referred to.
Netizen @洋洋骏骏's home, there are only 95 square meters in the suite, but after the living room is renovated, the neighbors say that it looks like a 150-square-meter house.
He changed the second bedroom next to the living room into a "multi-purpose room", and smashed all the walls on both sides of the room to make a movable door.
Usually, the sliding doors on both sides are all opened, and they can be merged into the living room space, which has good lighting and is large.
But when relatives and friends want to come for a short stay, he will close all the sliding doors on both sides, so that a private bedroom is formed.
Witty, he also thought about the bed in advance, embedded it in the cabinet, and put it down when he wanted to. It doesn't usually take up space.
The sliding door is also made of hanging rail doors, which costs more than 10,000 yuan, which is very worthwhile for the owner.
Netizen @喜甜's home is slightly different from the previous owner, and she doesn't want to waste the expanded second bedroom space, so she made tatami mats here.
And with the invisible folding door, it is open every day, and it is OK to read, entertain, and play on the tatami mat.
But when a relative comes to the door, you can pull up the invisible folding door here, and you can form a private space, and it is no problem to rest and sleep.
Sometimes children want to do their homework in it, and they will close the door, but the practicality is still good.
Netizen @一洋persimmon also didn't want to waste the smashed bedroom, so the two walls of the bedroom were made with glass sliding doors, so that the space was maximized.
Usually it is a study room and a piano room, but it can also be used as a guest room for overnight rest when needed.
There is also a built-in invisible bed in the room, which is easy to pull out when you want to use it.
No matter what kind of door you do, it's still very good that you can be invisible every day.
3. What should I pay attention to when smashing the wall?
1. First of all, it must be a non-load-bearing wall, and the load-bearing wall must not be smashed, safety first!
2. Secondly, understand the relevant wall demolition policies in the community, and some communities stipulate that even if it is a non-load-bearing wall, it cannot be smashed and demolished in a large area.
3. Again, if it is a hardcover room, it is necessary to estimate the cost of smashing the wall in advance, and it is possible that the floor material of the living room and the bedroom is different, resulting in the need for the ground to be re-paved, increasing the cost, and when smashing the wall, it is also necessary to let the workers pay attention to the ceiling, ventilation pipes and the like, so as to avoid smashing and increasing unnecessary trouble.
4. Finally, we must protect the parts that do not need to be dismantled, the dust is very large, and it should be properly covered to reduce the cleaning work in the later stage.
Summary at the end of the article
In short, smashing a small secondary bedroom at home can really make earth-shaking changes in the living room, lighting, sense of space, and transparency are completely different, which is simply a multiplicity.
Okay, that's all for this issue, I hope it will help you, we'll see you in the next issue~
