This time we will discuss some of the important factors that need to be taken to ensure that the rooms of your house stays balanced, well between design and function:
Rhythm and Flow
A good room layout allows a person and also pets if any, to traverse the space easily and efficiently. As a point of reference, the size of the man should be the standard to determine how much space is required around items such as kitchen counter and cabinets. No less important in the main traffic areas such as entrances. You can use about 110-125 cm wide hallways as a reference, but it can also vary depending on the design and size of your home space. To a very large room, a little open area may be better suited to balance the proportions of the room. In a smaller room, family room or bedroom is small, do not make access to a cupboard or a table is too narrow. What's stored on it will lose the convenience and ease of use.
To improve traffic flow around the room, calculate space relative to the entrance and all the important features that will be used on a regular basis, such as a light switch and outlet electricity. With these sections as a guide, you can begin to determine the most logical move around the room and furniture placement plan accordingly.
There may be other features in the room that affects the flow of traffic as well. Doors and drawers have movement in and out, and needs additional space when in use. This is also the case with some types of furniture, such as refrigerators and chairs around the dining table that need access when in use. It is important to anticipate and provide functional space for a feature like this.
Note the placement of furniture is right because it affects the usable space. The distance from the front edge of the sofa with a table must be wide enough to allow access and ease of use. A distance of 50 cm is the minimum distance, but the convenience and comfort are important, so use your best judgment.
Creating a Focal Point
Once you define an area, you have to work with the depiction of space, creates appeal and increased functionality. Here's how:
Create a focal point. In some kind of space this technique is quite easy to do. Flat screen television in the living room, a wall clock or antique painting in the living room and views of the vents in the dining room is an effective focal point that helps limit the space. Placement of furniture to take full advantage of these sections is an intuitive approach to the layout of the room. In a room more festive, art on the walls, functional shelf, table, or other embellishments can be the focal point.
In defining the space to be used for grouping, elements of natural architecture in the room could be an influential part. Location windows, stairs, and even equipment, such as lighting on the wall, can be useful in building special areas, such as study rooms, workspace or a place to relax. Occasionally, the space is problematic, for example, the walls are too low, the walls are a bit slanted, or anything that is not normal can be used with creative ideas you to pour designs creative and unique.
Harmony and proportion
Harmony in interior design is all about balance and proportion. The scale of the room, whether large or small, will have an impact on the overall layout. Some elements, such as the width of the path around the room, would have a minimum size which is convenient. Other options, such as a large sofa in the living room is large, or choose a loveseat tiny and minimalist tables in a small space will create a more harmonious design. The purpose of all the practical considerations of this is to create a unified whole in which all the parts can be matched and complement each other, as if it were a single entity.
Most of the layout of the room is a masterpiece which is still in the process, may change during different seasons or different years. Rule one of the largest and most important thing to remember is that it maintains an easy, convenient and safe to use always the top priority. For the rest, the more you often play with the design of the room, the more you will learn about what looks balanced, interesting and suitable for the family and your lifestyle.
