A garage project with a summer kitchen allows you to save space on the site and reduce construction costs. It will not be easy to do it yourself, it is better to contact a specialist. The article proposes to consider the question of how to draw up a plan for a garage with a summer kitchen, the features of their construction.

Features of the construction of a garage with a summer kitchen

Usually, when arranging their site, in addition to the house, many people want to have a place for the construction also:

  • garage.
  • Baths (see).
  • Summer kitchen.
  • Saraya.

But because of the small territory, they cannot afford it.

So you have to think about which project to choose so that you can solve issues such as:

  • Equip the territory with the necessary buildings and, when using them, do not infringe on the lack of civilization, and make living outside the city as comfortable as possible.
  • Leave more free space. Living outside the city implies a connection with nature, and there is no point in building up the entire site and feeling like in a city on it.

The ideal option may be a project in which small buildings intended for use in the summer are erected as extensions to a residential building.

In this case, the benefits of the plan are:

  • Space saving.
  • Saving labor and time.
  • The cost of construction is reduced - one of the walls of the building becomes the wall of the extension.

For example, you can connect like this:

  • House with a bath.
  • House with summer kitchen.
  • Summer kitchen with garage.

Tip: Such a connection of buildings is not always possible according to aesthetic standards. Houses sometimes look unpresentable. Therefore, you should choose a project option in which the summer kitchen is combined with a garage.

The advantages of this placement are:

  • Saving. The wall that separates the two rooms, despite the fact that it is a carrier, is being built alone.
  • One roof is being built over the buildings, this is quite an important factor.
  • All engineering Communication connected into one common system.

The photo shows a plan of one of the building options on the site.

In a small area, you can combine buildings such as:

  • Garage.
  • Summer kitchen.
  • Boiler room.
  • Hozblok, where several necessary office premises are located.
  • Summer recreation area.

The advantages of such a connection:

  • The presence of a summer kitchen, which is always necessary in the country, and it is better to combine it with outdoor terrace for a relaxing holiday for the whole family.
  • To save much-needed square meters, you can also plan a boiler room here small size. Such an office space takes up little space, all the necessary communications are connected to it, which facilitates the installation of heating equipment and its maintenance.

The disadvantage of combining a summer kitchen with a garage can be considered requirements fire safety.

Tip: When building a garage and a summer kitchen under the same roof, you should add rooms that will separate them. This can be a pantry where inventory and kitchen utensils will be stored, or a small open shed.

How to build a summer kitchen with a garage

Tip: When choosing a place for construction, you need to focus on the requirements that apply to both buildings, and choose the best option.

When combining a summer kitchen with a garage on your site, you must:

  • Place buildings, focusing on the size of the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe territory.
  • Consider the location of utility zones.
  • Pay attention to the location of cultivated areas and recreation areas.
  • With the close location of the summer kitchen and the garage on the site to the house, it is possible to have a great rest at any time of the year, it is convenient to use the garage in inclement weather, and if there is a basement in the garage, you can comfortably use it without leaving the room.
  • When arranging a playground for children and places for leisure in the open air in the country, they should be placed closer to the summer kitchen. This will give the opportunity to observe the children and at the same time fully relax.
  • It is very convenient when the summer kitchen is located next to the garden or vegetable garden. In this case:
  1. easier harvesting
  2. its processing;
  3. canning;
  4. preparation for storage.

Summer kitchen with garage and shed

Instructions for planning a summer kitchen in a suburban area suggest taking into account:

  • Free area for building.
  • The number of family members.
  • Future interior equipment of the building.

Usually, for a family of three or four people, a structure frame with an area of ​​\u200b\u200bits base of approximately 12 square meters, which looks like a box or a semi-closed canopy, will be enough. For a larger family and a fairly spacious summer cottage to build summer kitchen possible, combining it with a veranda and a dining room.

How to combine a summer kitchen with other buildings - the video will tell.

Despite the fact that it is not recommended to combine a summer kitchen with a garage for fire safety, with the right construction plan, this building will be quite convenient and multifunctional.

We offer you to view and analyze a selection of photographs of garages that have been converted into charming living rooms.

Any housewife wants to effectively use the area of ​​​​their house. Each corner should perform a useful function, whether decorative or practical. This also applies to the hangar. For many, it stands idle, littered with unnecessary items.

In this case, it is worth seriously considering its reconstruction. You might like the idea. To do this, you need a little imagination, patience, material investments. As a result, you will get additional area with livable space.

Let's look at a few examples.

1. Studio

If you already have adult children who want to try their hand at independent living they will love this house.

Initially, this box was not popular in the family and was used in rare cases to collect rubbish. But after the redevelopment, the room sparkled with new colors.

The color scheme of the interior is light. This made it possible to visually expand the area of ​​​​the room. Much attention was paid to the light, as the goal was to bring it as close to natural as possible.

2. Cozy living room

Before renovation

After renovation. Hallway

After renovation. Living room

In this example, the garage was also nothing special. There were no windows in the dark and disorganized space. It is difficult to recognize this room in the photo. The interior impresses with its conciseness and luxury. Designer furniture fit in well with the environment.

A new window expanded the space, and a partition separated the hallway from the living room. Well organized storage system. Even in such a small volume, everything you need will fit. Perfect place to receive guests.

3. Mini house

Suitable for creative, ambitious and free people next option reconstruction. Despite the small area of ​​​​25 square meters, you can fit everything you need for a full-fledged stay.

French doors. When they are opened, a large spacious opening is obtained, which gives a quick influx of fresh air and provides ventilation. Immediately from the entrance to the mini-house, the kitchen and the sleeping area begin.

The loft for relaxation is located a little higher front door. The feeling of sleeping on the street is given by several windows installed parallel to the place where the mattress is located. The kitchen is very modest in size.

Sink, Dishwasher and a couple of shelves for everyday dishes. In addition to the main building, a small bathroom extension was made.

In such a house you can live at first. It allows you to save money, rationally use the area and not litter your life with unnecessary items, but appreciate what you really need.

4. Unusual living room

One young family converted the dark back room of their home into a play center for children. For parents, this is a wonderful find, as the activity of the kids is very high. And in such a zone you can organize a corner of creativity, sports, etc.

In this case, the main designers should be the children themselves. Multi-colored prints of hands and feet, homemade pictures and crafts, photos of achievements and family members should become the main elements of decor.

The article proposes to consider the question of how to draw up a plan for a garage with a summer kitchen, the features of their construction.

Usually, when arranging their site, in addition to the house, many people want to have a place for the construction also:

Wirth's architects recently completed a garage pavilion in Eintinghausen, Lower Saxony. Jan and Benjamin Wirth selected a drawing and eight photographs and answered our six questions. There was a man who felt himself as well and was killed. Is it a hat that it was created in order to convince him of himself?

What specific products or materials contributed to the success of the completed structure? There was an old fire in the neighboring village, whose bricks were the same as the existing farm. Efforts to remove them, clean them, and wall the unstable brick were helpful. Even if they were cursed between them. The oak wood of the gate also comes from the immediate vicinity: a large oak tree was struck by lightning 15 years ago and then cut down by a storm. The trunk was sawn into wide boards, which now form the gate.

  • Baths (see).
  • Summer kitchen.
  • Saraya.

But because of the small territory, they cannot afford it.

So you have to think about which project to choose so that you can solve issues such as:

The restorer advised us: if the outer door lasted 300 years, it was processed linseed oil. The gates of the bus house missed four times. Through the hole in the masonry, the wind can continue to move freely across the field and dry the grain. The impact cube has greatly simplified truss directions. You no longer need to enter the house number.

How to build a summer kitchen with a garage

Northern Germany is not Italy: the large gates not only make parking easier, but can also close quickly during celebrations when the weather threatens. Solemn golden light as a conductor in a flat country. The trainer's house raises the buildings in the courtyard and gives the ensemble an entrance building leading to the market.

In this case, the benefits of the plan are:

  • Space saving.
  • Saving labor and time.
  • The price of construction is reduced - one of the walls of the building becomes the wall of the extension.

For example, you can connect like this:

  • House with a bath.
  • House with summer kitchen.
  • Summer kitchen with garage.

Tip: Such a connection of buildings is not always possible according to aesthetic standards. Houses sometimes look unpresentable. Therefore, you should choose a project option in which the summer kitchen is combined with a garage.

Architecture Wirth Architects, Bremen. Manufacturer Project guide only. For masonry, the farm burned down decades ago. The building is able to evoke such emotions in almost all participants that it has exceeded the limits of purely economic. The definition of unprofessional expenses would seem tactless against this background. Inside there was a car wash, a waiting room with a bar, an electrical workshop, offices and residential units.

Much more symbolic for Milan. Part of the generations' collective imagination of the Italian economic miracle. Today, the heart of this building is returning to rhythm. If someone comes to us with a car, motorcycle, plane, helicopter or boat, we will make them unique: both in terms of innovation and from this tradition. "Maestro", specialists with unique skills and absolute mastery, make dreams come true. In an iconic place where Italian craftsmanship is once again reunited under one roof, proof of the victory of Italy and the team.

The advantages of this placement are:

  • Saving. The wall that separates the two rooms, despite the fact that it is a carrier, is being built alone.
  • One roof is being built over the buildings, this is quite an important factor.
  • All engineering communications are connected into one common system.

The photo shows a plan of one of the building options on the site.

The streamlined building seems to be flying towards Piazza Accursio. It has two large and disproportionate awnings, which are not only elements to shade the façade or protect themselves from the rain, but they are the very essence of this architecture with good communication skills. This is not a simple building, it is a monument of fantasy. Michel De Luci. I immediately fell in love with this project: the combination of engine and kitchen is extraordinary and absolutely relevant. In fact, there is always a great search for excellence in the world of cars, attention to the needs and requirements of the customer, individual approach, absolute quality of raw materials.

In a small area, you can combine buildings such as:

  • Garage.
  • Summer kitchen.
  • Boiler room.
  • Hozblok, where several necessary office premises are located.
  • Summer recreation area.

The advantages of such a connection:

  • The presence of a summer kitchen, which is always necessary in the country, and it is better to combine it with an open terrace for permanent rest for the whole family.
  • To save much-needed square meters, here you can also plan a small boiler room. Such an office space takes up little space, all the necessary communications are connected to it, which facilitates the installation of heating equipment and its maintenance.

The disadvantage of combining a summer kitchen with a garage can be considered fire safety requirements.

Dimensional drawing and layout of a garage with a sauna


After all, here, under a single bath, you need to freely get from home, and a garage, where you need to drive a vehicle from the side of the street, are combined. Based on this, it is necessary to choose the correct orientation of this complex building at their summer cottage.

Before talking about the intricacies of combining these, at first glance, incompatible buildings, I would like to dwell on the advantages of this combination in order to finally dispel the reader's doubts about the appropriateness of this measure.

So, the "pluses" of the neighborhood of the garage and the bath include:

  1. With the right design, the stove that heats the bath can be located in such a way as to give off its heat also to the garage room. Thus, there will be significant savings in space heating.

    Option layout and location of the stove in the bath

  2. It is very convenient to use part of the garage for storing a supply of firewood. And even if during the soaring you didn’t have enough logs, there is no need to run after them outside, it is much more comfortable to pick them up from a warm garage.
  3. It is not uncommon for such cases, and then your garage-bath complex develops into one where you can very conveniently arrange friends and relatives. As you can see, there is another opportunity to expand the functionality of the room while saving space.
  4. These are the main advantages of combining a garage and a bath, but there are a number of less significant ones. So, for example, combining these two rooms will allow you to take a shower after dirty work in the garage without moving down the street, which is especially convenient in inclement weather.

    What you should pay special attention to when combining a garage and a bath

    So, if you have already decided to build a bath-garage complex, then when drawing up a project, the following subtleties should be taken into account:

    Project of a garage and a bath with a veranda measuring 15x12 meters

    Choosing a material for the construction of a complex structure

    Before developing a project for a bathhouse with a garage, it is necessary to decide on the material from which this building will be built. For this, all known building materials can be used: brick, stone, foam and gas blocks. Each of these materials has its own advantages and disadvantages. Let's dwell on them in more detail.

    Wood

    The "pluses" of wood include the following:

    1. environmental friendliness;
    2. ease;
    3. ease of processing.

    wooden garage project


    Thanks to these advantages, they do not require a powerful solid foundation, they can be easily built with their own hands, and they also create a favorable microclimate that positively affects the health and well-being of a person, which is very important for a bathhouse. However, wood also has significant “cons”, the main of which is a high fire hazard.

    This fact is not acceptable both for a bathhouse and for a garage, and therefore, when building a wooden complex, special attention should be paid to ensuring fire safety with the help of special impregnations.

    The second disadvantage is the fact that the wood requires constant care, which consists in treating the wood with special water-repellent, antifungal, insecticidal impregnations to extend the life of the building.

    Layout option for a wooden garage with a bathhouse and a relaxation room


    However, if you are ready to take these wood safety measures, then timber complex building projects are the ideal solution for you.

    Brick

    Brick is a classic high-quality material for the construction of private buildings. It has a high degree of fire safety, heat capacity, strength and reliability. will last for many years faithfully without any constant care.

    However, brick is a rather heavy material, which entails the need to pour a solid foundation. And this will increase construction costs. Yes, and the brick itself is a rather expensive material, so the construction of a bath-garage complex will come out of it costly.

    Among other things, a brick building requires additional exterior and interior decoration in accordance with the functional purpose of the room.

    Finished project of a brick garage with a sauna

    Foam and aerated concrete blocks

    It's budget enough. Construction Materials, while having a high degree fire safety, durability, practicality. Foam and aerated concrete blocks are very light, so they do not require a powerful foundation. They have good heat and sound insulation parameters.

    The disadvantages include the fact that the buildings of these blocks require external and interior decoration with the provision high-quality waterproofing, since the porous structure of the material easily absorbs moisture from the atmosphere.

    Often, when combining a garage with a bath, it also uses a combination of materials. So, for example, projects where the bath part of the building is made of wood and the garage part are made of brick or blocks are quite popular. includes the presence of a double wall between the bath and the garage, which allows you to increase the level of hydro and thermal insulation between them.

    Options for planning and combining a bath and a garage

    The construction project, where a bathhouse and a garage will be combined, will directly depend on the needs and capabilities of the owners. We offer for consideration two projects that are completely different in scale and cost.

    The first is designed for a garage for two cars, a steam room, a rest room, a shower room and a pool. The total area of ​​such a room is on average 140 square meters. m, and here we are no longer talking about saving space on.

    A garage for two cars occupies 1/3 of the entire premises, i.e. about 45 square meters. m. It is also proposed to locate a workshop. The garage is equipped with two entrances / exits - one from the street, the second to the bathhouse.

    Option for planning a garage combined with a bathhouse and a rest room


    When moving from the garage to the sauna area, which also makes up a third of the entire complex, you immediately find yourself in the hall, and from there you can move to or go directly to the steam room. The bath area includes a waiting room (about 6 sq. m.), a bathroom (2.5 sq. m.), a shower room (3 sq. m.), a steam room (10-11 sq. m.), and a relaxation room (about 28 sq. m.). .m).

    The plan of the bath area is designed so that from the steam room you can get both to the relaxation room and to the pool located on the opposite side of the steam room. It also provides access directly to the outdoor terrace, which can also be accessed from the pool area.

    And finally, the last third of the room is occupied by a pool with a total area of ​​​​up to 30 square meters. m. In the same part of the building there is a boiler room and a boiler room.

    Option for planning a garage combined with a bathhouse and a swimming pool


    As you can see, this project is not budget option combining a garage and a bath, but if it is provided with an attic, where to place living rooms, then you get a luxurious country house for relaxation.

    The second project belongs to the low-budget, and is useful for those who plan to save space on. The total area of ​​the proposed project is 65 square meters. m, where 42 sq. m. It is proposed to take under the garage and workshop, and the rest under the bath complex.


The ability to combine several buildings into one excites many developers. There are a lot of advantages of implementing such an idea, but there are also some difficulties of the technical side of the issue. Modern materials and construction technologies make it possible to implement such complex projects.

Combining house and garage: design features

Combining a house and a garage is widely used by modern architects. The implementation of such a project requires a large investment of funds, while you can use it as already ready plans buildings, and order individual option that meets the needs of future residents.

The garage is very often combined with the house.

This association has a number of advantages:

  1. Saving money. One building will cost significantly less than two individual buildings.
  2. Rational distribution of the area. With the current shortage of free land and the cost of buying it, the perfect option would be private house with a built-in garage that takes up minimal space.
  3. Reducing the consumption of heat and electrical energy due to the need for laying a single source of heating. In the case of separate communications, the system will be much more complicated, which will lead to an increase in bills for the supply of heat.
  4. Comfort during operation. If the garage is built under the same roof as the house, then it is very convenient to move from one room to another. If desired, it can be equipped as a pantry or workshop.

The smell of fuel and lubricants that prevail in garage units can be eliminated with the help of insulated doors. One-story buildings are in great demand during construction. The structure can be erected with a covered passage between rooms, even the construction of several garage compartments is allowed.


Combined construction is quite economical

When combining living space with a garage, several positive aspects appear:

  1. The foundation is laid lightweight, so you can simplify its design.
  2. Simplifies roof installation.
  3. Less building materials are used.
  4. The budget for construction is significantly reduced.

Most often, the garage is an extension to the house.

Construction of a two-story house and a garage in one project

  1. Saving money. square meter of living space two-story house cheaper than a one-story building. The explanation for this is the smaller area of ​​​​the foundation and roof for each square meter.
  2. Compact placement. The same land plot allows the construction of both a one-story cottage and a two-story cottage. This fact is especially important for owners of a small area where you still want to set up a garden or equip flower beds.
  3. Increased options for dividing the house into zones. A large area suggests the possibility of creating in the house individual places for sleeping, receiving guests, children's games.

If the construction of the garage was planned at the design stage, then it can be located on the ground floor

You can also build a house with an attic or a full second floor. The first case involves a change in the slope of the roof, which leads to a decrease in the height of the ceilings and, consequently, to the possibility of saving on construction and wall decoration.

Arrangement of the veranda together with the house

For greater comfort of living in the house, the construction of an adjoining veranda is allowed. The combined design requires the laying of a rigid and durable foundation, for example, piled or columnar, the shrinkage of which will be minimal, and the operation will be many years. You can make a veranda:

  • built-in or attached;
  • closed or open.

The veranda can be a full-fledged relaxation room

Features of designing a house with a veranda

To make the roof of the veranda as a continuation of the roofing system of the house, splicing two truss systems and install spacers. This design can be safely called reliable and harmoniously combined with the overall design. There are projects with a veranda built across the cottage or attached to the main facade. The project can have a variety of design options, depending on the tastes and budget of the owner.


The arrangement of the veranda depends on the preferences of the owner

The veranda, being an extension to the house, gives housing the following advantages:

  • serves as additional protection for keeping heat inside residential premises;
  • reduces the impact of sudden temperature fluctuations;
  • helps to increase the usable area;
  • used as a place of rest and meetings with family and friends at any time of the year;
  • acts as an additional wall insulation.

You won’t surprise anyone with a house with a veranda

When building verandas, you can use different materials: timber, wood, brick, foam block. It is better to choose the same that was used in the construction of the house. Its traditional location is the front part of the facade.


The veranda can be located along one wall or in the corner of the house

In the case of arranging a second entrance, it is better to build it in the yard. If the project involves the use of two adjacent walls, then the design will be angular. It is ergonomic and functional.

Combining a garage and outbuildings

The garage, as a rule, is used not only for the car, but also serves as a storage place for various things, which simply cannot be stored at home. As an alternative, a project of a combined garage with an utility block is proposed. At the same time, each room will be used strictly for its intended purpose, will not take large area plot and will cost less than separate construction.

The garage can be combined with different buildings, for example, a bathhouse or a barn

In addition to practicality and ease of use, one can single out the aesthetics of the future structure. You can get an outwardly attractive design by adhering to a single style, using the same materials for building walls and roofs. The disadvantage is the risk of fire and the rapid spread of flame.


Garage can be combined with an outbuilding

How to calculate the size of a building

The initial tasks before the construction of combined premises are to determine their size and create a project. To calculate the dimensions as accurately as possible, consider some of the nuances.

  1. A garage is a spacious room where the owner can comfortably stay, perform repair work. Do not overdo it with its size, because huge areas will not be able to give cozy atmosphere.
  2. Solving the issue of conducting heating requires additional financial costs.
  3. Limiting the area of ​​​​the site involves the choice optimum thickness foundation and bearing walls designs. Since the thermal insulation of the room directly depends on the thickness of the walls, in this case it is not worth saving.

Depending on what will be stored in the back room, marking is planned for communications, window openings, shelving and more optional equipment. The area of ​​the garage box is determined by the number of cars. You can build a room for two or more cars.

Household blocks can be of any size, which is determined only by the purpose of the room and the dimensions of the things stored in it.

What materials can be used to build a hozblok

Developers prefer brick, wood, concrete and frame structures. It is important to familiarize yourself with the features of the materials in advance.


Owners of private houses use metal structures, glued laminated timber, panel sheets and other materials as the basis for a garage with a utility block. To unite the premises inside, transitions are arranged, the doors in which can be made of glass or plastic.

Construction of a swimming pool as an extension to housing

It will not be difficult to make a pool or sauna with an already operated house, given a number of features of these structures. You can solve the issue with the premises by building an extension to the house. Since the pool is a complex hydraulic system, great attention should be paid to the correct installation of the structure and its subsequent maintenance. Combined projects of this kind are popular, since the installation of shallow baths does not require special permission.


The pool is sometimes an extension to the house

The main task at the planning stage is the creation of high-quality waterproofing. Since a high load on the walls will be created indoors, it is the waterproofing layer that must withstand the pressure exerted for several decades. The design of the house in this case should involve year-round use of the pool or sauna, which requires constant supply clean water, as well as additional space for service equipment.

Thanks to the arrangement of premises in a separate extension, the risk of overloading the foundation of the house is reduced.

The ideal option for combined construction is the construction of a house where there will be a garage and a swimming pool. Then you get not only a spacious living space, but also utility rooms with comfortable warm transitions.

You can also choose a house project with ground floor and combined garage, swimming pool and sauna. But then you have to strengthen the foundation and withstand desired height basement.


If desired, the house can be combined with a swimming pool and a garage at the same time.

When planning a house with a built-in pool, consider:

  • how deep will the bath be;
  • what shape is the pool planned for;
  • type of filtration system - skimmer or overflow;
  • finishing options.

Equally important when building a house with an attached garage, swimming pool or sauna is the maintenance of the microclimate necessary for each room with ventilation system and heating.

Garage and kitchen in the same room

This idea comes to the owners of suburban real estate when the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe site is limited. With regard to implementation, in order to avoid incorrect installation and additional costs materials, it is recommended to contact specialized teams of builders. When drafting a project, you should decide on the purpose of the future extension, which can become:

  • garage;
  • shed;
  • summer kitchen.

The location of the garage under one roof with a summer kitchen is very convenient

When creating a project, the entire site is divided into:

  • a place for buildings equipped with all the benefits of civilization for a comfortable stay of residents (heating, plumbing, sewerage);
  • a free area that allows the owners to enjoy the beauty of nature.

When choosing suburban real estate, people dream of increasing the surrounding space, so there should not be a dense building on the site, reminiscent of a noisy metropolis.

Property owners are often interested in the option of combining with a house small buildings for seasonal use, for example, during a warm period. The main advantages of such construction are:

  • rationality of territory distribution;
  • reduction of labor costs, reduction of project implementation time;
  • minimizing the cost of materials (the wall of the house serves as the basis for the new premises).

Thanks to the combined construction, you can save money and land area

Aesthetically, several rooms under one roof do not always look attractive, so it is important to choose the best option, for example, a summer kitchen and garage project.

Combining a garage with a summer kitchen has its advantages

When choosing a site for the construction of an extension, it is enough to study the requirements for each of the planned buildings and choose the most suitable option for each of them.


Summer kitchen can also be combined with a barn

A summer kitchen, which is simply necessary on the site, can be built with an open terrace, which is in demand by couples with children for joint recreation on fresh air. Here you can also create a small boiler room, which does not take up much space and combines all engineering communications, which is very convenient when performing their repair and maintenance. The only drawback of a summer kitchen and a garage under one roof is a violation of fire safety rules.

If the summer kitchen will be built in conjunction with a garage, then a number of factors must be taken into account:

  1. The frame of additional premises is being built depending on the parameters of the free site.
  2. The place for extensions is selected on the basis of the rules of household zoning.
  3. Proper distribution requires cultivated areas and recreation areas.
  4. The playground and the resting place for adults are located as close as possible to each other, which will ensure maximum comfort and safety for the whole family to stay in nature.
  5. The summer kitchen is built closer to the garden or kitchen garden, so that it is convenient for the owners to harvest, process it, preserve and prepare fruits for storage.

Summer kitchen: planning rules for a suburban area

The construction of the summer kitchen is carried out on the basis of:

  • the size of the free area;
  • the number of people living in the house;
  • equipment for use in the kitchen.

Summer kitchen can be located under one roof and with a bath

For a family of 3-4 people, 12 m 2 will be enough for a kitchen built like a box or a semi-enclosed canopy. If the family is large and the summer cottage is quite spacious, then the best option would be to add a kitchen, veranda and dining room. A summer kitchen and a garage under one roof is a multifunctional and easy-to-use room that requires competent design to reduce the risk of fire.

Designing a gazebo combined with a shed

If the summer cottage does not have a territory for building a house, then the owners are recommended to equip a gazebo combined with a utility room. The premises, which serve as a warehouse, are erected separately from other buildings. For a rational distribution of space, you can build:

  • change house with a bathroom (shower, toilet);
  • barn, summer kitchen and carport;
  • economic block with a rest room;
  • warehouse for tools, combined with a gazebo, a room with an oven.

If the area on the site is small, then the barn can be combined with a gazebo

There are many options, their choice depends on the existing conditions and the desires of the owner. A change house with a veranda or a gazebo is in great demand. These premises may be covered by one roof structure. All buildings on the site must be made in the same style, have visual appeal and functionality.

Materials for building a barn

The simple design of the economic house allows you to make it yourself with basic skills installation work. For construction, you can use:


The best option - wooden shed, which is well suited to any structures, allows reconstruction during operation, does not impose special requirements during construction.

Advantages of combining a change house with a gazebo

The advantages of arranging utility rooms with a gazebo under one roof are:

  • significant space savings;
  • ease of use for cottage owners;
  • aesthetics: a well-designed and decorated bathroom, together with the household unit, does not stand out from overall design site;
  • practicality and functionality: the utility block is suitable for storing food stocks that can be quickly obtained and treated to households gathered at the table in the gazebo.

If the gazebo is equipped with a barbecue area, then, as a rule, a woodcutter is attached to this room. It is important to follow some requirements:

  1. The place should be sheltered from the rays of the scorching sun, located at a considerable distance from cesspool and a toilet without sewerage.
  2. From the design should not fall a shadow on the landing.
  3. It is recommended to build a utility block using the northern, northwestern or northeastern wall of the gazebo. So it will be reliably protected from cold air currents, and staying inside will become comfortable in any weather.

The implementation of combined construction projects will help rationally use the free area of ​​the summer cottage, save materials, cash, time and effort for installation. Each owner will be able to choose the option of combining premises, taking into account their preferences and capabilities.
