Each house layout is different, which is the trend, horizontal hall or vertical hall?

Yesterday, a small friend left a message proposing to push a phase of the horizontal hall design program. Some people may not know what is the horizontal hall, what is the vertical hall, first of all to the floor plan to explain.

Vertical hall

Vertical hall is our traditional living room, also known as the straight hall, open & lt; depth, the living room is the surface of the light, and now eighty to ninety percent of the house type is this design.

This kind of living room can be done for both large and small households, and there is a clear demarcation line between the guest dining room and the bedroom, the static and dynamic zoning, the middle is connected by the aisle, and the line of movement after entering the door is generally "entrance - kitchen - dining room - living room - bedroom", and the zoning of each functional area is clear.

Because of the layout of the vertical hall, we have developed the habit of placing sofas against the wall over the decades. Vertical hall only living room side of the light, the depth is large but the area is relatively much smaller, lighting and ventilation conditions are poor.

Horizontal hall

Nowadays, the improvement of 130 square meters or more is very popular, and the design of horizontal hall is more and more. Turning the vertical hall by 90 degrees is the horizontal hall, the living room and dining room are on a light surface, the opening > depth, the pattern is more open.

Bedroom, study are on the other side, will not poor lighting? No, because the depth is small, the light can penetrate from the south to the back of the bedroom, as long as the physical partition blocking not too much.

And during the day, we spend more time in the living and dining area, all on the south side of the light is excellent, living comfort is better.

But many people get the first reaction of the horizontal hall is at a loss, because it is completely different from the vertical hall we are used to. In fact, the horizontal hall has a more open space, there can be more flexible and diverse design options, and there is no walkway to take up space, the room rate is higher, the sense of space and fashion are stronger.

Horizontal hall space, if only do guest dining room, there are generally two design methods, one is the sofa against the wall, the TV to do the partition, the second is the TV against the wall, sofa to do the partition.

Sofa against the wall

Sofa against the wall, according to the dining table-TV-sofa layout.

Many people are not accustomed to the sofa does not lean against the wall, there is also a kind of feng shui saying is to lean against the wall to have a leaning.

If the sofa against the wall, the TV can not rely on the wall, either in the middle of the random placement, do casual home atmosphere, or play half of the false wall, to give the TV a place to rest.

You can also put the sofa side over against the window, you do not have to do the false wall, the TV can be installed on the wall opposite the window.

TV against the wall

TV against the wall, according to the dining table - sofa - TV layout.

But now there are more and more people can accept the sofa does not rely on the wall, the sofa across the center to do partition, more natural than building a false wall, into the overall space.

If you are worried that the sofa will not be able to move against the wall, you can also play a half-cabinet behind the sofa to do the storage, or directly play the desk, bar, etc., not only to enrich the functional area, but also to make the sofa more reliable, psychological sense of security is more than enough.

If the city allows, and the family diet is relatively light, you can do open kitchen, and dining room, living room to form a LDK layout, become the core area of family activities.

The above is a more conventional layout method, you can design:

First determine the location of the TV, whether to make a false wall in the center, mounted on the narrow side of the wall, or mounted on the wider wall opposite the window; and then arrange the sofa according to the TV; sofa area is determined, and then the other space to put the dining table + sideboards, or desks + bookshelves.

If there is a separate dining room and study type, want to build more other functional areas in the living room, you can consider the area outside the sofa:

play on the floor as a recreational area, the child can be free to roll; directly leave the open space, to the child circle a play area; installed slide, climbing wall, etc., to give the child a small amusement park to put on the fitness equipment to transform into a gym; Put a big long table transformed into a craft table.

In short, a large space represents countless possibilities.

Fewer rooms in the house, you can also pull out a room from the horizontal hall, but the advantages of this design of the horizontal hall of large space is gone.

To try to build the room with glass doors, glass partitions, glass + half-walls that do not interfere with the light, or fabric curtains that are highly flexible.
