What is a split-level house?

I want to have a distinction between high and low, but I don't want to accept the low and high jump. Split-level housing is a good choice. So, what kind of house is a split-level house? What are the characteristics of split-level houses?

Staggered residence is two or more concrete structures with different heights, and the staggered floors are connected by stairs. The advantage is that it can be divided into dynamic area and static area like a thermocline, and because it is not completely divided into two floors, it has a rich sense of space of duplex housing. Staggered floor refers to a set of functional rooms in a house on different planes, with a height difference of 30-60cm apart, distinct layers and strong three-dimensional sense, but not divided into two floors, which is suitable for large-area houses.

The difference between staggered floors and other room types

The official scientific name of split-level apartment should be "multi-level cascade residential building"

Why is it popular in the market to call this room type split-level? Because Shanghai Roy Real Estate Development Co., Ltd., the first household in Shanghai to apply for the national invention patent of this room type, developed the first "multi-storey cascade residence" Rongheyuan in June 1998, with the slogan: "Collect the first split-level house in Shanghai." So the split-level house was opened among the buyers.

Multi-storey cascade houses, that is, a house has more than two floors, but they are different from the general unified and simple double-storey houses. The first floor of the entrance is a public area, with a 4.2m-wide living room in the south and a dining room, kitchen and public toilet in the north. Go up three stairs to form the second area, which consists of one or two small and medium-sized rooms for the elderly, children or guest rooms; Continue to go up the 8 stairs, which is the third area, which is the host activity area. Different staggered floors form different functional areas.

Split-level residence is different from the popular duplex residence or duplex residence. Although the levels of houses are staggered, the area of a single house can be reasonably and effectively controlled. Take stairs as an example, the construction area of the upper and lower floors of the duplex stairs should be calculated, and the split-level apartment only needs one floor. Therefore, a set of 80-90 square meters residence can be designed in split floors, so that ordinary citizens can afford a new type of residence with rich levels and reasonable control of area and total price.

Another feature of split-level housing is that it enriches the picture level of home life. Many people have to make a step and design a platform in the room in order to change the traditional living space and enjoy a happy three-dimensional life when buying a house for decoration. The split-level residence has been improved and improved in dynamic and static zoning, privacy and comfort.

In addition, the design of split-level houses has certain restrictions on their lifting height, and at the same time, the requirements for earthquake resistance are higher than those of ordinary houses. Due to the requirements of ventilation and lighting, the staggered floors are mainly east-west staggered floors.

Simply put, it is the interior of the house. Except balcony, kitchen and bathroom, when the indoor elevation is inconsistent and the height difference is small (generally 0.45-0.3m), this apartment is called split-level residence. (Horizontal projected area in sleeve = area in sleeve)

Note that it is different from duplex (height difference is not less than 2.8 meters) and duplex (height difference is 2.2-2.6 meters except living room).

Duplex residence does not have a perfect two-story space. Generally speaking, the story height of duplex residence is relatively high (the story height of ordinary residence is generally 2.8m). A mezzanine can be separated at a higher floor height, and a bedroom or study can be arranged to connect the upper and lower floors with stairs. The idea is to increase the control area in a limited space and improve the space utilization rate of the house.

A duplex house is a house with two floors. Generally, the living room, kitchen, dining room and bathroom are deployed on the first floor, while the bedroom and study are deployed on the second floor.

Split-level residence mainly refers to the living room, bedroom and kitchen in a room on several planes with different heights, and each space is connected by several steps.

The difference between duplex and thermocline:

If the upper and lower floors are completely separated, it should be called duplex residence; If the upper and lower floors are in a unified space, that is, you can catch a glimpse of the ground, carved fences or corridors from the grass-roots room, it is a duplex residence.

The difference between duplex and staggered floors:

The height of a duplex floor always exceeds the height of one person, which is equivalent to two floors. But the staggered height is lower than one person, and people standing on the first floor can see the second floor. Therefore, staggered floors are called "compression compound". Others, the first and second floors of the duplex are always projected directly, and the upper and lower areas are the same; However, the staggered two or three floors are not directly overlapped, but staggered with different heights.

The difference between staggered layer and thermocline;

Staggered floors are basically intact bungalows. Although it is in one plane, it is divided into different planes and the height difference is very small. Jumping floor is a completely independent two-story living space, each floor is close to the height of ordinary houses.

Advantages of split-level housing

The biggest advantage of split-level housing is that it has both a flat residential pattern and a villa-style living feeling. Split-level houses have many characteristics, which are not comparable to ordinary houses and villas.

1) split-level apartment has great rationality in living function. After entering the door and passing through the porch, there is a living room and dining room. The second or third entrance has a bedroom and study, a bathroom and a closet.

2) Unique collocation of functions, such as different levels of sanitary facilities, separation of static and dynamic in regional layout, separation of dry and wet, etc.

3) The privacy of living is greatly enhanced, the living room and bedroom do not interfere with each other, and the area with different functions is completely an independent space.

4) Life is convenient. There is no circular staircase in the villa of split-level residence, and each entrance has only 4 ~ 5 steps, so it is convenient to get in and out and come and go freely.

5) The level and grade of residence have been improved, and the split-level residence has the same function and feeling as a villa, which is more layered than a bungalow, and has advanced and practical advantages incomparable to ordinary residence in terms of living comfort.

6) Split-level housing is needed by high-income people, and the living standard is constantly improving. Considering the needs of development, it is beneficial to improve the outdoor environment to design the ground floor as a part of the garage or utility room by using the floor drop.

7) The space utilization of split-level residence is also reflected in the fact that the height requirement of public space is higher than other spaces. The living room space of split-level residence is increased to about 3m, which makes it open, bright and active. The bedroom space is reduced to 2.6 m ~ 2.8 m, and the slightly lower space is quiet and warm. The dislocation of public space and personal space has met the requirements of residents, which is difficult for ordinary houses to meet. It brings psychological security and comfort to residents.

Knowing this, what is a leap layer and what are its advantages, you probably have some understanding. Do you think this choice is not bad for buyers who want to have a patchwork home?
