Is eight square meters enough for a completely comfortable stay? Do not rush to say "no" until you view our selection of amazing rooms, which, in addition to a mini-apartment, also includes a very unusual "transshipment" room and a "garage" of all dreams!
Reproduction and urbanization are the main trends in the development of mankind in the foreseeable future. According to the calculations of the UN Commission on Population and Development, the world population by 2050 will be 9.6 billion people, while the current 7, 2 billion. next year will approach the maximum. It turns out that builders, designers and related structures will work well in the coming decades, and ordinary residents of the stone jungle should not expect a decrease in the cost of housing due to the constantly increasing demand.
But not everything is as bad as it might seem. The emergence of new building materials and construction methods, coupled with a rethinking of the use of available free space, give each and every hope for their own cozy corner. It is about the genius of creative thought that will be discussed in this article. We have prepared for you another overview of miniature and simply interesting rooms, which, due to the flight of ideas and transformable furniture, are able to "expand the space".
Miniature apartment
Let's start with the record holder. This Parisian apartment occupies only 8 square meters and is one of the smallest dwellings in the city. But at the same time, it contains everything you need: a bed, a workplace, a mini-kitchen and a shower room. The idea of the Kitoko Studio design studio is well visualized in the demo video.
But computer rendering is only a vision of the creators, which is often not destined to come true. But not at this time. The development has found its embodiment. Let's take apart the apartment by the bones.
Claustrophobes will obviously not like it, but in my opinion it turned out great. The sleeping area is protected from falling and can be darkened during daytime sleep. There is a water treatment room. And how happy the fat is! But you can still find fault: there is not enough carpet.:(
Unusual "shelter"
The next apartment is much more spacious - as much as 27 squares. But they are designed for the stay of two or more people. Why "stay"? According to the task set by the owners of the apartments to the Barcelona architects Eva Prats and Ricardo Flores, the premises are intended as a temporary transfer point, where you can stay for a short time, but still have everything you need at hand.
Spanish designers took as a basis two blocks of furniture, each of which has a different functional purpose. The first is responsible for cooking and storing small household nonsense, and the second acts as a full-fledged closet. The only thing they have in common is a fold-out bed. Connoisseurs of minimalism should like it. Such would be the cells for beavers and squirrels in the zoo!
Unique "garage"
A dream will close the review! Every man should have his own "dugout", where he can indulge in carnal joys, retire and think about the meaning of life. As has been the custom for a long time, this place dear to the heart is the garage. But let's not think in stereotypes, they say, the author, do not feed us with kinds of dirty, dry closet. No, friends, your eyes will see the ingenious transformation of a piece of iron into a real penthouse. Watch this long video in its entirety and you will not regret it: atmospheric, enviable, cool!
And who is capable of creating such a miracle of the world? Two French creative professions. Photographer Jérémie Buchholtz once took a liking to an old garage somewhere in Bordeaux. With the support of his fellow architect Matthieu de Marien, Jeremy got down to business. You've already seen the 41-square result. One impressive piece of furniture deserves a special mention, containing a workplace, plumbing rooms, a wardrobe, and a couple of couches, one of which looks like a bird's nest. There is where to coo!
