The difference between horizontal hall and vertical hall of apartment type

When buying a house, always consider the orientation, lighting and layout of the living room. In the traditional pattern, most of them are vertical hall-porch-dining room-living room layout, but recently horizontal hall-dining room and living room are popular. Then the question is, which is better to choose between the vertical hall and the horizontal hall?

How to distinguish between vertical hall and horizontal hall? Let's look at two concepts first:

Studio: refers to the main lighting surface of a house (living room), such as the side where the balcony and windows are located.

Depth: refers to the surface perpendicular to the studio, and the surface perpendicular to the balcony and window is the depth.

According to the different depth ratio of the bay, vertical hall and horizontal hall are distinguished. The vertical hall is also called the straight hall, which means deep > wide, and the living room is close to the lighting surface. The layout of the vertical hall is mostly a progressive layout of porch-dining room-living room-balcony.

The horizontal hall means width > depth. In the horizontal hall, the living room and dining room are close to the lighting surface, and the bedroom is located on the other side.

Why do developers like to build vertical hall layout? As we all know, the best landscape length of a piece of land is fixed. The smaller the bay control, the more houses will enjoy this landscape. The bigger the bay, the fewer houses enjoy this view. From the perspective of maximizing economic value, small-sized houses can obviously make developers get higher returns. Horizontal pavilion is a new popular model in recent years. Usually, for large-area units, the horizontal hall is the first choice.

After reading the above analysis, I believe you must have the answer in your heart, so let's sum it up together:

1. If you like the living room with large balcony observation deck, wide view and sufficient light, choose the horizontal hall, otherwise choose the vertical hall.

2. The vertical hall with clear functional partition is too lazy to do functional partition in the later period, and the partition from porch-dining room-living room is clear.

3. Pay attention to the privacy of the bedroom. If there is a corridor partition, choose the vertical hall, and don't mind choosing the horizontal hall directly opposite the living room and bedroom.
