Not everyone can afford a big house. It's not all about financial ability. Sometimes you have to be content with little, based on the available territory. In addition, the rejection of excesses, the general desire for minimalism is a fashionable trend.
Create an interesting and user-friendly design small house- the main priorities of the owner. How to achieve this is described in our article.
The small size of a private house is most often found in garden partnerships. Small areas with a dense arrangement do not give room for action. Most owners of such country estates intend not only to relax on the lawn, but also to engage in gardening and horticulture. Given this, every piece of land is very valuable.
In this case, a small Vacation home ik is what you need. A compact dwelling will allow you to hide from the rain, spend the night and even receive guests. Building such "mansions" is much easier and more economical. If you approach the arrangement of your home correctly, you will get a completely cozy and comfortable option.
For full functionality, in the case of a short stay on the site, 1 room is enough for the summer resident. At the same time, a pantry or a separate building is allocated for the household inventory.
In the case of a vacation in the country with a large family, it is advisable to provide for the allocation of a small kitchen. The only room is recommended to be divided into zones, if necessary.
If a long stay in the country is expected, then it is better to think over the interior of a small private house in more detail. It might be possible:
All of the above requirements apply not only to residential buildings in a summer cottage, but also to small-sized mansions. In our country, these are quite common. Some are embarrassed by a small entrance hall in a private house, while others are more than enough 10 square meters to run a full-fledged economy.
The most important rule for those who want to expand the space is not to store unnecessary things. This is especially true for country houses. Most of us are trying to transport all out-of-fashion, shabby, other objectionable things to country estates. You have to be able to part with rubbish or give it a second life in time.
Minimalism in a compact space - ideal condition for visual expansion of the area. The fewer objects on the territory of a small house, the more pleasant the perception of reality. This applies not only to large-sized furniture, but also to all kinds of trinkets.
A two-story house is a good solution for a small plot of land. Everything that cannot be placed in width will turn out in height. It is advisable to initially carefully approach the marking of the territory.
However, in case of an unplanned occurrence of a situation, it is also possible to find a way out. For example, build on a building. If there is an unused attic, then repair, equip this area.
To improve the efficiency of the operation of the dwelling, it is required to be more attentive to the filling of the object. All furnishings must be thought out to the smallest detail. A good choice - transforming furniture:
Even the furniture options themselves can be multifunctional (loft-type bed or with storage boxes, stair steps-wardrobe, bench with a double bottom). The main thing is that the useful space is used to the maximum. Numerous photos of a small private house clearly show how diverse the ideas for successfully loading space are.
As a rule, a small house is located in the same compact area. To get rid of this drawback, it is advisable to follow the same path as when organizing the space inside the house:
If possible, a small courtyard of a private house is freed from additional buildings, large-scale plantings that create a dense shadow. An open space with lawn grass, garden paths, low-growing flower beds will please the eye, visually expand the area.
If it is impossible to clear the territory, they try to "open" the approaches to the house as much as possible. Outbuildings, greenhouses, tall plants, if possible, move away from the building. So, it will turn out to let light and air into the territory, visually “stretch” a compact area.
In any house, the main part of the area is occupied by a sleeping place. For a small home, this is the most critical. It is desirable to place the bed in such a way that it takes up a minimum of space. A good idea would be to install the bed under the ceiling. This may be a specially designed structure on supports, imitating the second floor.
A decent option would be a loft bed with a sleeping place upstairs and a kitchenette downstairs. Human imagination is limitless. Based on this idea, there are various examples of entire complexes-rooms.
In addition to the bed, a table takes up a lot of space. To solve the problem of unloading space, it is desirable to abandon the usual version of this subject. Use different ideas with folding products. For example, a folding option screwed to the wall, a transforming table or a deliberately extended window sill.
In addition to unusual models, a non-standard arrangement is used. The table can be taken out into the corridor or even outside (if the house is summer). In this case, the construction of a veranda or a removable canopy will be a good solution.
Particular attention should be paid to seating areas. Sofa, bench or chairs should not be "empty". The use of built-in storage systems will help to improve the situation with unloading space. You can use a box as a chair. Lightweight, braided options are preferred.
A small house with a modest plot is a misfortune for many Russian summer residents. Rational use of scanty space to create conditions conducive to a comfortable stay or a fulfilling life is difficult, but possible.

Therefore, among other architectural trends, the concept of a mini-house is now being actively developed. The term "mini-house" means not only from the word small, mini is an architectural style of minimalism. This is a house in which there are no corridors, in which each room is multifunctional, in which there is a very thoughtful layout and you can reach the right thing almost without leaving your place.
Let's look at a few mini-houses (also called tiny house, little house, cabine - tiny houses, small houses, cabins) developed abroad, and then move on to the proposal from the DKMK plant
This tiny house has a cute rustic look and brings a lot of smiles to those around you.
And this mini house was assembled by an American student from old parts and junk building materials from a landfill. Nevertheless, the creation of this residential trailer with all the amenities and furniture with an area of about 16 square meters cost $ 12,000 (about 740,000 rubles at today's exchange rate).
In this house, only fifteen square meters of space, not counting the veranda, and in fact, there are only two rooms: a tiny toilet and a combined living-kitchen-dining-bedroom. Despite its modest size, it will comfortable home for a single person, a group of tourists or fishermen ... provided that it is warm.
Can such a house serve as housing for the newlyweds - here is the same house in white.
One of the most thoughtful mini houses is presented by the architectural company Dwelle. It has been worked out in several versions, from a very tiny 3x6 cabin for one or two people, to a quite comfortable large mini-house four meters wide and at least seven meters long.
This is how this wonderful mini house, set in the forest, looks like.
The main advantage of a mini house is, first of all, low price, and secondly, compactness, comfort and convenience at home. The mini-house should have communal amenities: electricity, cold and hot water, a toilet and the opportunity to wash. This distinguishes a mini house from a garden or country house.
As you understand, due to its very small size, any mini-house serves as housing either for one or two people for a long time, or for three or four, but only for a few days.
Thus, the mini house can serve as:
A typical solution for a mini-house is not only horizontal, but also vertical zoning of the room. For example, on the second mezzanine - in Russian speaking, polati - a sleeping place is taken out, and the dining-living room is located below.

When choosing projects for small houses and cottages, you should pay attention to the number of floors, the presence of outbuildings. There are several basic types of home and everyone can choose to their liking.
Not everyone has the money to buy a large plot and build a palace on it, and even a small family does not need a huge house. Houses on the plots are usually built one- and two-story, there are attic floors, a garage extension. Each project has its pros and cons.
Cozy little house with an attic
Attic houses enjoy well-deserved popularity. Such a house is distinguished by a characteristic corner from the roof. An attic is an attic space that is equipped and used as a living space. Thus, without increasing the area of \u200b\u200bthe foundation, several more rooms are added, to which you can climb. Attic floor formed by the intersection of the surfaces of the ceiling and roof, and at the lowest point it is usually no more than 1.5 m.
Equipped for housing small attic in a wooden house Choose big families. Usually 3-4 rooms can be made in it. The project is convenient in that the roof helps to save heat, which means that less costs will be spent during the operation of the heating system. The house will also look complete from the outside. The roof can be symmetrical, one-sided, with several bends. You can find more than one project of such a house.
Foam blocks, bricks, wood, timber, ceramic plates are suitable for its construction. You can make a frame house.
Project one-story house from foam blocks, decorated with stone
If the site is spacious enough, then you can choose a project of a small one-story house. You can build a house on a plot of one hundred acres. In terms of area, such a house is limited only by the size of the plot. A one-story house will take up more space than a house with several floors, but this is the only drawback. Advantages of a one-story house:
A more compact but large house will consist of two floors. This project involves the zonal placement of rooms. Usually on the ground floor there are utility rooms, a living room and a guest room. The second floor is bedrooms and offices. The project is more expensive than one-story house. Especially with great attention they always develop the project of a two-story small house for complex terrain.
In part, such a house may resemble an attic, while retaining its advantages. You can combine one- and two-story buildings. On the protruding part of the first floor, a stronger roof is laid and, for example, is built. A variety of materials are suitable for building a house. The project will also be more costly due to the creation of better thermal insulation of the room, especially if large windows were used for best view. quality is also needed, so you need to make sure that the house retains heat well.

A house project up to 60 m2 is usually suitable for summer living in a summer cottage. Although it is possible to provide for the construction of a garage. If the area occupied by the house is up to 50 m2, then you should think about building two floors. Perhaps this will become best solution– compact and for a large family.
Project little house 25 sq. m. Worth paying attention to. This house has a narrow façade. Thus, more space is freed up to create a lawn, park or your own garden.
House for a narrow lot The garage is also main part country house, which you need to take care of in advance. Most often, a country house assumes the presence of the actual transport, since you need to somehow get to it. And every family now has one or two cars. The garage can stand as a separate building on the site, but it is better to choose already finished project houses with a garage. This is one of the most requested projects.
Placing a garage next to the house has several significant advantages:
The area of such a house does not increase much. There are projects for both one-story and two-storey houses.
The project of a small one-story house with a garage for two cars After the project is in hand, you need to start its implementation. Most of the projects are done for certain materials. Choice building materials big enough. More correctly, at the same time with the choice of the project, determine the type of material. The number of floors, the development of the heating system, the study of thermal insulation depend on this. Today, wooden brick houses, and foam blocks.
Today it can be built from wood. It is an environmentally friendly material with useful properties. Wood and wood materials allow the walls to "breathe" and do not emit harmful substances. From logs you can build a house of any design. Most often they choose, since in this design the house most of all looks like a fairy tale. If the family is traveling to a suburban area to take a break from the concrete jungle, then such a building will help them relax the best.
Timber houses are beautiful appearance both inside and outside. They do not require additional costs for cladding. According to their characteristics, such houses are similar to log buildings. However, the choice of timber is much larger, and building houses is faster and easier.
This category of projects is very popular not only due to its economic accessibility. Of course, not every family can afford to build a grandiose country mansion with three floors. Yes, this is useless if you just need a cozy country house where you can come at any time of the year to spend a vacation there or holidays, or just a change of scenery on the weekend and stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city. If you think over the heating system in advance and take care of thermal insulation, then such a building can function not only in the summer. For example, elderly family members can live there all year round, whose health will be beneficially affected by fresh air, and grandchildren will join them during the holidays.
The smaller the building, the more economical it is not only for the developer, but also the faster it is built and, accordingly, the sooner it is possible to equip such housing and move in.
Despite their small size and compact layout, houses of this type can contain a number of additional features and amenities.
It is also possible to equip the house with a sauna, as in the project. This will require additional costs and increased waterproofing, but it will fully pay off with the healing and cosmetic benefits that can be obtained from the regular use of the Finnish bath.
This section of the collection consists mainly of one-story buildings. Simplicity and functionality planning solutions combined with the restrained design of the facades. We can say that the motto of the “small houses” category is rationality in everything plus the maximum convenience of life.
