Design of entrance
(1) Design the porch according to the functional requirements of the living room.
The entrance is opposite the living room. When the living room is near the entrance door, it may lead to the lack of "functional structure" (such as TV wall) in the living room. The porch is designed according to the functional requirements, which is both practical and decorative. Isn't it "kill two birds with one stone"!
① Designed as the "back wall" of the sofa.
A living room without sofa "backrest wall" is like a living room without "starting point" and "starting point position", and the living room space will be at a loss! According to the apartment type, a partition is set in the living room area opposite the porch as the "backrest wall" of the sofa, and the sofa has its own area. The location and width of the partition are determined according to the apartment type, living room area demand, porch area demand and sofa combination size. You can also refer to an appropriate value about 1.2~ 1.5m from the entrance.
The style of partition is selected according to the living room area, environmental effect to be created, decoration style, personal preference and porch area. Changhong glass partition can not only ensure the privacy of the space to a certain extent, but also have a good sense of transparency. The entrance area will not be dark and cramped, which is a good choice; Leaving a certain distance between several parallel partitions will bring a little "poetry" to the porch!
② Designed as TV background wall.
The TV wall is like the "end point" of the living room. With the "end position", the region is more "complete"! Set a partition in the living room area opposite the entrance door as the "boundary" between the TV wall and the entrance area. The style of the partition is selected according to the living room area, porch area, decoration style, decoration effect to be created and personal preference. But if you need to "hang" the TV on the partition, you need to consider the firmness of the partition; Although the "partition" of the solid wall is firm, it is easy to make the space feel cramped because of its "impermeability", so I think the space with small area is not suitable for use.
The location and width of the partition are determined according to the apartment type, the required area of the living room, the required area of the porch and the width of the main sofa, or you can refer to an appropriate value of about 1.2~ 1.5m from the entrance door.
⑵ "Build" the foyer design.
"Building" the entrance hall in the porch and designing a more "independent" porch area will give the family a "buffer" space and weaken the sense of urgency of watching the living room at home. The size of the foyer is determined according to the living room area and the functional size of the foyer (such as shoe cabinets). , you can also refer to the comfort value of the hall area of 3 ~ 5m2.
The "completed" hall can be a "complete" solid wall, which separates the entrance from the interior, changes the apartment type and adds a little mystery to the family space; It can be a sculpture wall. For example, if a window is added to the wall, the living room will become "the scenery outside the window" and "the transition between reality and reality", and the living room will have a "texture" and the entrance area will become full of interest, which can also alleviate the darkness and bondage brought by the solid wall. ...
It can also be a partition with good "permeability", such as glass partition and hollow partition. Using glass partition to design a passage at the entrance to "interrupt" the "continuation" of the entrance area to the indoor space and make it a "stoppable" porch area, so that it is no longer "hasty" from the entrance door to the living room; In my opinion, the pass for glass partition is divided into two parts: form and meaning. It is wonderful to divide the porch and living room area with your own "outline" and continue the "artistic conception" of living room and porch with the "continuous separation" of glass.
⑶ Design a porch with a shoe cabinet.
Shoe cabinets are necessary in the entrance area, which will make the entrance more "full"! The porch is combined with the shoe cabinet design, or it is separated from the upper and lower parts of the shoe cabinet to "connect", which integrates practicality and decoration and reduces the occupation of space. ...
Or the partition is perpendicular to the shoe cabinet. The partition is generally at the "end" of the shoe cabinet, depending on the wall setting. This porch pays more attention to practicality and will be more comfortable to use. ...
Or the partition is separated from the shoe cabinet, which is opposite to the entrance door. The shoe cabinet is on the side of the entrance door where there is no wall, and keeps a certain distance from the partition to meet people's use (my suggestion is 1~ 1.5m or so, too much space will be wasted, and too small will make the family space feel cramped), so the small space formed by the partition, the shoe cabinet and the wall on the other side of the entrance door becomes a porch.
Or the shoe cabinet becomes a "partition" opposite the entrance door, which can form a refreshing and tidy porch. I am worried that the shoe cabinet will bring a sense of bondage and darkness to the entrance area, and "opening holes" in the shoe cabinet will be an optional way, which will bring a visual "extension" effect to the space, and can also be used to place ornaments and decorate the entrance. ...
The styles of partitions and shoe cabinets are selected according to family decoration style, personal preferences, functional requirements, family members, living room area and porch area. The position of the partition and shoe cabinet relative to the entrance door is selected according to the area, apartment type, the length of the entrance of the shoe cabinet and the wall of the living room area.
⑷ "simple" porch design
If the "careful machine" above will make you feel heavy, it is better to try the porch design with only partitions. Its simplicity and lightness will make the home relaxed and comfortable when entering the house!
The partition can be a "fixed" partition that cannot be moved, or a screen partition that can be easily moved and replaced, but the style needs to be integrated with the family decoration style.
In my opinion, the partition is usually wider than the entrance door, but when the living room area is far from the entrance door, it can only be wider than the sofa. Because the sofa is the main furniture of the living room, it will "block" the sofa, which will also have the symbolic meaning of "blocking" the living room and form a "porch" area!
The above are my suggestions and views on the porch design of the entrance living room. According to the porch area, living room area, decoration style, functional requirements and personal preferences that can be set, it is best to suit yourself. I hope I can help you. Thank you!
