Small House Plans with Shop Underneath
Next we will see a house with a commercial space below, a garage and the different rooms of the house above, located on a street in Lugo, Galicia.
Two-Story House with Commercial Space, Existing Situation
There is an exterior corridor on the left side, until the middle of the plot, which is common with another house, so the windows of the business must be kept high.
At the same time, there is adjoining another house, after said corridor is finished. Due to this, a small interior sled ventilates adjoining spaces.
Other characteristics, on the ground floor, are that it has an interior garage for one car, the two-section staircase that connects with the upper floor, a small kitchen for preparing food, 2 bathrooms mainly for customers, and access to a terrace. .
A central interior corridor communicates all the spaces.
Actually the ground floor was quite optimized.
Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning, Part One
The clients wanted a new layout, on the top floor.
A construction specialist had made some proposals, but it was not entirely to the liking of the owners.
The difficulty of reforming an existing house is that you have to respect the columns that support the building.
This limits the possibilities of a new distribution.
Upper Floor, New Layout
The new solution for the upper floor consisted of the following design criteria:
- Leaving only two bedrooms, trying to make them more spacious.
- The space corresponding to the day area on the upper floor should be more modern, integrated spaces, greater visual angles, better air circulation, in short, more generous spaces.
- The space where the third bedroom and the small bathroom were, used for bathroom and laundry services, moving the dividing walls.
Thus, the following solution was reached, where…
Now, the 2 bedrooms are spacious, one of them, a youth bedroom, has 2 single beds. The study table was maintained.
The two entrances to the bedrooms are left with great privacy. Thus, it is difficult for unwanted visuals to exist within them.
The master bedroom, with access to the terrace, no longer has a dressing room, but two floor-to-ceiling closets.
This gives it a lot of space, and allows more lighting and natural ventilation.
2-Story House Plan with Shop Below, New Design
The new bathroom is larger and includes a freestanding bathtub, storage cupboard and coffee table.
The kitchen is now open to the living room (the dividing wall was removed) and has a wide bar with pairs of stools facing each other.
Both the entrance door to the bathroom and the laundry room are also hidden from the circulation corridor.
Where the central pillar is, entering the room, it is proposed to cover it, with wood, in the shape of an arch, with the aim that from a structural column that cannot be moved, turn it into a focus of visuals, an element that participates in interior decoration.
Other options were studied, for example, changing the location of the kitchen, and making it a kitchen-dining room, but they did not improve, the proposal finally accepted.
Many times when making the PLANS OF A HOUSE , it turns out that less is more .
