To be honest, not everyone is willing to choose a small house. Some friends are forced to live in a small house due to economic pressure and other reasons. This makes them in the small apartment decoration always try to expand the space, and to expand the space in our general thinking, we need to transform the wall. Here’s how you can expand your space without changing the walls.
First, the demolition of the wall need to be careful
When people buy a small house, they think this wall is a bit of an eyesore and that wall is a bit redundant. They just tear down the wall and make room for an area, and the small house becomes a big house.
Generally speaking, in the case of not knowing the function of the wall and the structure of the wall, do not easily remove the wall, because you do not know what wall you remove, if it is a load-bearing wall, light will cause wall cracking, heavy will affect the bearing structure of the whole building, shorten the service life of the house.
Before starting the wall, it is best to find out the building drawings of the house, see what wall you want to tear down, whether there is electricity, gas lines and pipelines through the wall; To tear down the wall also want to find professional construction personnel, do not do it yourself, to avoid accidents.
Two, the ceiling is optional
In order to visually raise a house, many people usually make a suspended ceiling. However, if the shape of the ceiling is too regular, the sense of space area of the ceiling will be very strong, but can not lengthen the effect of space; Overly complex ceiling design is not suitable for small houses, nor can it be ruled out that the designer in order to raise the cost of the intentional design.
The decoration of the ceiling is mainly simple, the use of paint color transition, or the extension of the line to elongate the visual effect, can make the ceiling have the effect of lifting, making the house look higher.
Three, soft partition is more practical
Because space is limited, there are not many small apartment rooms, some owners use their own cabinets or cement bricks separated a space out. In fact, small housing is not suitable for the use of hard partition, brick wall will increase the difficulty of engineering, too strict space boundaries and hard partition itself will make the space look more narrow.
Not only the wall can play a role in the effect of partition space, screen, screen and other soft partition can also play a role in the effect of partition space, the form of expression is softer, will not hinder the light.
