House for family with children. Projects of houses for a large family

What should be a family house with children? Beautiful, comfortable and functional. It should also provide for a joint pastime, and for the arrangement of the personal zone of each family member. It is desirable that this house is inexpensive in construction and did not require large expenditure.

Day zone for the whole family

Many modern cottages are built by two-story, while the second floor usually represents the living attitudes. In homes with an attic very easy to organize a functional and convenient interior. In addition, they provide the possibility of separation into two zones: day and night.

The day zone is, first of all the living room, which is a room for communication, games, joint trapes, recreation and reception. Today it is customary to unite living room with a dining area and with a kitchen to get a large multifunctional room. In this case, in addition to the space, we get a good two or even tripartite natural lighting.

In most projects offered to private developers today, two inputs are envisaged - one on the main facade, and the second leading through the terrace to the courtyard. The living room itself is planned with maximum glazed, which gives comfortability to the interior and makes a more stylish and expressive building exterior. Direct exit from the living room on the terrace combines a naturally house with a garden. It is very convenient, especially in summer, when the life of households can proceed almost throughout the entire area of \u200b\u200bhousehold.


And in winter, the atmosphere of the home focus will emphasize ... Home Forest, that is, a fireplace located in a seating area, which provides not only comfort in the house, but also the effective distribution of heat in the premises.


The daytime area located on the first floor is designed with a compact bathroom or with a full-fledged bathroom. In addition, a cabinet, a guest room or a bedroom for the elderly family members, who are difficult to climb the stairs to the second floor, are often located in the seating part of the first floor. It all depends on the parameters of the cottage, from the family composition, which will live in it and on the needs of future households.

The kitchen is preferably located not far from the entrance. To increase the cost-effectiveness and rationality, the kitchen and bathroom are designed nearby. If there is an opportunity, the kitchen area is deepened in the P-shaped niche, since it is the location that is the most convenient one. It is desirable next to the kitchen to have a spacious storage room with a small window.

Night bedroom area

The night zone is the territory of the personal rooms of all family members. It is traditionally attributed to the mansard floor. Bedrooms located at the top, the planning itself is protected from the noise of the guest area, as well as from the eye of the guests at home. Parents bedroom should be separated from children's corridor or bathroom. In addition, the parent bedroom makes sense to equip its separate bathroom and dressing room. Children will remain a shared bathroom. In order for the children's rooms easier to maintain order, it is better to provide a dressing room for children, where they will store seasonal clothes and shoes, sports equipment, etc.


Special decoration of mansard cottages are balconies. If you wish, you can put each bedroom with a separate balcony. It all depends on the tastes and the capabilities of the owners. An ideal option will be attic with two balconies - one above the porch of the main entrance, and one above the terrace. At the same time, the parents will have their own balcony, and children have their own.

Auxiliary premises - everything in its place

Wardrobe, as mentioned above, it is necessary to have a bedroom near the bedrooms. However, additional dressing rooms can be placed on the first floor. Another auxiliary room is a pantry, must be near the kitchen, this was also mentioned. In addition to her, the house needs to have a storage room for storing garden inventory and other household items, as well as boiler room. If the cottage is designed with a attached garage connected to the house internal entrance, you can equip the boiler room and one pantry in the garage extension.

It is very important to build a house from such materials that are inexpensive and will be able to provide him with efficiency in operation. Fortunately, modern building technologies make it possible to use fairly efficient and economical materials.

In order for the house to be inexpensive both in the construction and maintenance, it should have a simple rectangular shape. The larger the design of the building will have complex elements in the form of erkers, arches, etc., the more expensive the construction will be released, and the more difficult it will be to provide it with the desired level of heat saving. The roof should also be simple in shape. The most economical option is a classic duplex roof.

Where to begin? What to pay attention to? Practical experience.

I am often asked: how did you manage to build such a cozy and, at the same time, a comfortable home? Who did the project do you?

I will share our experience. (Continuing articles about our choice of land and layout of the plot)

It all started with the fact that I wanted your own home. Two-storey, spacious, with its bedroom, children's and kitchens. All as everyone in dreams about the house.

At first we just watched hundreds of pretty pictures of houses. When it became clear what I like, and what not - went to sites with projects. The second ones are distinguished by the presence of planning. The sites themselves are extremely much. After studying project catalogs mainly on Western sites, we have clear areas of house:

  1. Without the ground floor. He is expensive, but we don't need it functionally
  2. Without a garage under the car. They decided that the garage would be a separate structure combined with workshop and host. block. Sometime later
  3. Without sauna in the house. Originally wanted exactly the opposite, but decided to save on the square at home. And the bath is combined with guest rooms and build later
  4. 2 floors. One would take too much area of \u200b\u200bthe site, three - torture to run around the stairs.
  5. 3 bedrooms: adult and two children's (separately for son and daughter)
  6. Wardrobe, combined with an adult bedroom and a bathroom
  7. Dressing room combined with hallway. To directly there might kept all overhead clothes, sledges, skiing, stroller, etc.
  8. The office, which can sometimes perform guest room features
  9. Your bathroom for children and their parents
  10. Laundry, combined with the storage location of all household pieces
  11. Second light and fireplace. Dear and irrational attributes, but without them their home is not a house. As a result, all preparatory work was done for the fireplace, but the installation itself was postponed for a couple of years.
  12. Living room, dining room and kitchen - one large space, minimum walls on the first floor
  13. Many big windows. In the living room and dining room, they must be "in the floor", they should even be in bathrooms and storage rooms.
  14. Veranda overlooking the backyard and combined with the kitchen to have a rare warm days to dine outdoer
  15. Small storage room in the kitchen so as not to take place in the headset rarely used things
  16. Boiler room, corresponding to fire safety standards (with a window, separate entrance).

Such requirements like the proximity of communication and the orientation of windows to the south were measured by themselves. For each room, we represented the minimum and maximum permissible area. For this, all the rooms of the apartment in which they lived and sketched the kitchen plan in the Ikea scheduler.

With about such a list, we began to choose a project from sold on Russian sites. Western here are not suitable due to orientation on other climatic conditions. The advantages of buying before individual development, firstly, in value, secondly, often in quality. Many "serial" projects have already been built by someone, checked in practice, and in general, they are made professional, and not the "second time after the diploma" by architects and designers.

We were one step from buying one of these projects:

But changed his mind.

We decided to make an individual project based on some already built. Some kind of built on the next site of the project organization. After discussing the project with the builders, they found out that they knew the house with photographs and he was in Novosibirsk. Tested shock and went to watch live.

The house was very cool, but too big and not suitable for all our requirements. They took it as a basis and redid.

After somewhere 15 iterations, a project has been a project that meets all of our requirements:




Thus, you can choose a project that best suits you. And then you already turn to the architect or construction company and make this project "yours", as we did. Acting precisely on such an algorithm, you can avoid dozens of inappropriate projects from designers who do not know your needs and tastes.

And lastly, several practical advice how to avoid mistakes and get a project of your dream home:

    Come more often in familiar and friends houses. Watch your feelings, in which house you are comfortable and cozy, and in what you feel inconvenience and you want to change the space.

    Visualize on your site. Come to where you will build a house and imagine that you are in it. Put the pegs and stand up on the intended veranda, living room, kitchen. Watch where the sun shines, what kind of windows will be from the windows, what neighbors, I want to be closer to them or it is worth expanding the house so that the veranda for gatherings with loved ones was in a secluded corner. It is good to know the winds of the winds of your area and plan the main entrance so that it does not have to fade with a shovel in winter in the morning. It is convenient to have a window going to the gate and gate to see who came to you.

    Consider your lifestyle. If you have children and you love active walks, frequent guests or maybe you just have a big wardrobe, then plan a spacious hallway, with a clothing storage area, shoes, sports equipment, guest hangers. Also an excellent idea with a dryer or warm floor in the hallway, it is very useful in winter when the crowd of kids resorts from the street and you need to quickly dry clothes.

    If you have a dog, you can plan the water source directly in the hallway so that you can wash your paws. It will come in handy for barefoot in summer!

    The big house is a big cleaning, washing and ironing. Try to optimize the space for these cases. Schedule a wedding or one of the baths with a shopping area where you can position the washing machine, dryer, ironing board, detergents and different mop. It is very convenient to immediately make containers for each family member, where to fold clean clothes. For example, a child carries such a container, laying out clothes in places, then leaves this container in his room, and brings the bath to the bath, with dirty lover. It turns out that there is always a place in the room where the child folds off with clothes, without scattering dirty socks around the house.

    You can, of course, come up with more interesting ideas, like an elevator-pipe for dirty clothes in each room through which it falls into a shared basket in the warehouse. But this is already the saying that your soul is pleased.

    Storage of things. Building your home, you have a big advantage: you can generally avoid cabinets. Plan the wardrobe, storage room and mezzanine almost every room. See ideas in IKEE and on websites on the Internet. This approach has long been used in the West. In addition, it can save your place, which means to reduce the cost of the house.

    Children. Many people think that moving into their home and making children on the second floor, forever get rid of children's chaos and toys around the house. This is mistake. Unless of course you are going to sit in the nursery and play with the child there. Children will be where you are. Therefore, immediately consider storage of toys and children's zones both on the first and on the second floor. I really liked the ideas when a niche was made on the first floor and equipped a children's corner, a swing and hammock hung in the living room, and the center of the room was free for runner and active games. Another interesting idea to make separate bedrooms to children, with access to the overall gaming zone, where common toys are stored and you can spend time together together. This is suitable for families who have a small difference in age in children and they have a lot of common interests. Such an idea allows you to learn to divide the space and things, but keeping the opportunity to retire and have your favorite toys and classes.

    Think not standard. Remember that your home must please you both outside and inside. Do not build square boxes with one small window in each room. Imagine your dream house, which illuminates the morning sunlight, and perhaps you have long dreamed of looking at the stars, lying on the bed in the bedroom? Why not? Everything's possible! The main thing is to plan it :)

I wish you ambitious plans and practical projects, to quickly move to the house of your dreams! If you have questions about our project, you can ask them in the comments, I will try to answer.

In most projects, general zones are combined into one spacious room, but can be isolated from each other. Houses with the "open" first floor plan In the catalog, most, since the location of common areas in a single space without partitions is one of the principles of designing our bureau.

Grow and change! The peculiarity of large families is "Framework", - someone is born, marries or separated. And therefore the house should be such that it is easy to reroach for new circumstances.
