Small frame houses are in steady demand. It has not changed for two decades. Such cottages account for about 30% of all sales in construction companies.
Despite their modest size, such buildings can stand out with a spectacular appearance and be no less efficient than larger buildings.
When do you choose house designs up to 50 sq m?
There are several reasons why people choose small cottages.
- A plot of land of limited area.
Dacha plots measuring 4-6 acres are by no means uncommon. For such a plot of land, a cottage measuring 6x6 or 6x7 is ideal. It will not take up much space, it can fit into any corner and there will be enough space for beds or a garden.
- Financial difficulties.
Often customers do not want to spend a lot of money when purchasing a country house. For such people there are special ultra-budget projects. They can be purchased for 200-300 thousand rubles. Such an amount will not punch holes in the family budget and will not force you to take out an “expensive” loan.
- There is no desire to live outside the city in winter.
If you plan to use the cottage only in spring and summer, then there is little point in spending extra money ordering the construction of an expensive house. For summer use, a small cottage with a minimum set of amenities is quite enough.
What layout is used in cottages measuring 50 square meters?
Small dimensions did not limit the flight of architectural thought. Naturally, there are fewer layout options than for larger buildings, but there is a certain variability.
For a one-story project, a simple but effective layout is used. It includes a living room combined with a kitchen and a small bedroom. Sometimes a storage room is created in which gardening tools are stored.
When it comes to a two-story building, a studio is made on the lower floor, combining a kitchen, dining room and living room. The upper floor is reserved for one or two bedrooms.
However, there are also unusual projects in which the entire usable area is a single space.
A two-room apartment is considered one of the most common and versatile types of housing, because it can be as spacious and comfortable as a house. The most important thing is to format it correctly. Two-room apartments are ideal for couples who already have a child or are just planning to have a baby.

And also, what points are very important to take into account in order to make it comfortable not only for household members, but also for guests. Next, you will find out the answers to these questions and get acquainted with interesting examples of interiors of two-room apartments.
Where to begin?
Any design of a future home begins with its proper layout, selection of suitable building materials and furniture. If you are purchasing a two-room apartment from scratch, with so-called bare walls, then it makes sense to think about remodeling it and even demolishing some walls, if the design of the house and safety standards allow it.
Correctly moving a wall can greatly improve the external perception of your future home and completely change its format. Redevelopment of an apartment is done in order to make the premises more spacious and functional, however, for all this work, consultations with professional builders are required. Renovating, updating the design and interior of a secondary home may also require some effort, since it is often necessary to replace all floor coverings, update walls and ceilings. Moving walls in this case is not always the most relevant component of the repair process.
Improving an already completed renovation from a developer is not the easiest task, since much of the work has already been completed, and the bulk of the time will be spent on selecting new building materials.
Open plan
According to many experts, 50 square meters is a sufficient area if you have a desire to create. In order to profitably select and organize the open layout of a two-room apartment yourself, it is best to analyze ready-made projects and interior options, which will greatly simplify your task.

Corridor and hallway
Modern projects of two-room apartments are very often created in such a way that they do not have a separate room, which everyone is accustomed to calling a hallway. Often, upon entering a room, people immediately find themselves in a living room or hall.

This apartment has undergone a complete makeover, from remodeling to a complete overhaul of all surfaces. The decorator was passionate about Feng Shui, so the space was planned and decorated according to its laws.
We got rid of a large number of tiny closets and corridors, after which we got quite spacious housing. White walls add light, and richly toned accent areas in the dining area and bedroom are eye-catching.
The furniture was also chosen according to the oriental style model: a compact corner sofa that does not take up extra space, pillows instead of poufs, and a bed similar to a tatami.
The bathtub was removed from the bathroom, replacing it with a shower, and the kitchen, designed exclusively for cooking, is separated by a glass partition from the hall and a through niche from the living room.

This apartment is a great example of how you can add amenities without getting involved in a global renovation. The main changes occurred due to improved decor.
The living room was divided into 2 zones using carpets and furniture, so it became much more comfortable. A low leather sofa and a lightweight version of the coffee table were purchased for the soft area. The small dining area seems larger than it actually is, thanks to the light carpet and elegant floral tablecloth.
In the kitchen, the existing white tiles were matched with the same white furniture, thanks to which the small room was filled with light and visual lightness.
The master bedroom is designed in a modern style, the laconicism of which is softened by beautiful posters in the headboard and textiles on the bed. The second private room belongs to the student daughter; everything that is necessary for study and relaxation is located here.

Before the renovation, there was a non-residential semi-basement in the corner part of the ground floor. And with the help of the skillful actions of the decorator and finishers, it turned into a cozy apartment.
Due to the very limited number of windows, the layout was made like an enfilade with a sequential arrangement of rooms. At the entrance there is a kitchen-dining room, separated by a glass sliding door from a fairly spacious living room, in most of which there is a sofa area, and in a narrow part, along the direction of movement between the rooms, there is a high storage system that allows you to place everything you need. To visually facilitate its appearance, the upper part is made open and looks like a shelving unit, and the lower part looks like a closed cabinet.
In the part of the apartment furthest from the front door there is a bedroom with a wardrobe and a bathroom; a small hall between them includes another storage area - for out-of-season clothes and household appliances.
In the bathroom, instead of a traditional bathtub, it was decided to place a shower stall, which also made it possible to place a bidet.
The combination of milky white with red and safari (in the living room) adds warmth and comfort, orange + zebrawood (in the bedroom) - warmth and a slight dose of exoticism, wenge tone and gray-olive (in the bathroom) - an echo of Japanese minimalism.

It was decided to turn this apartment, intended for rent, into a studio. Its undoubted advantage is its own, rather large terrace, a pleasant addition to the well-organized interior.
A small part is separated for a bedroom, a compact corner for a bathroom with a bathtub, and the rest is practically open space, especially impressive thanks to the bay window element.
The furniture was chosen to be as light as possible and not take up extra space; the only tall wardrobe is located in the bedroom, other things are placed in chests of drawers, and books are placed in a rack behind the sofa.
The living room and kitchen areas are separated diagonally from each other, both include an L-shaped arrangement of furniture. In the geometric center there is a dining table. It forms a quite comfortable dining area, but thanks to the glass top and chrome backs of folding chairs, similar to garden ones, it looks very light.
Studio apartment with an area of about 50 sq.m. Usually it is a fairly spacious room in which there are no partitions separating the rooms. You start renovations in such an apartment and its planning literally from scratch, since you will need to independently zoning the premises. As a rule, such apartments have several windows and a rather unusual shape of the room. Therefore, when zoning and planning a studio apartment, you will also need to correctly place lighting accents.
The most popular type of layout for a studio apartment with an area of approximately 50 square meters is to divide such an apartment into two parts: a living part and a so-called guest area. The last zone includes a living room, a wardrobe and a bathroom. The living area with this layout is usually isolated using special partitions, screens and arches. This includes a bedroom and a children's area, if the latter is available.
With this layout, the living part of the studio takes up much less space than the guest part, but it seems more cozy, and the guest part became more comfortable. It can be used as a relaxation area. Inside each of these two parts of the studio apartment there is no actual separation by partitions. You can differentiate them a little with a contrasting color or various decorative elements.

This can be a hi-Teck style, a minimalist style, as well as loft or eco styles, which are filled with unusual solutions and geometric lines. Such styles are designed more monochrome.
Planning rules
Designers advise designing an apartment in a white style, since light colors make the room feel freer. To do this, you can use wallpaper in warm pastel colors, and pure white walls will contribute to the correct placement of light accents in the room. It is not necessary to use exclusively light shades when designing and planning a studio apartment; in order to diversify the interior of such an apartment, you can decorate the kitchen and children's areas in brighter colors, and if there is no children's room, you can make a bright accent on the bedroom and kitchen areas. This color scheme is a compromise, but the main thing is to provide for it immediately after planning. With this design, bright zones can diversify your interior and attract the attention of guests.
When planning the interior of even the most spacious studio apartment, keep in mind that the most convenient and therefore suitable solution for such an apartment would be an oriental-style interior. For this apartment layout, a sofa placed in the corner of the living area is perfect, and ottomans or special bean bags can serve as armchairs. In the bedroom you can install a bed that will resemble a tatami in appearance.
When initially planning your studio apartment, you need to get rid of storage space if you have any, as this will allow you to further expand the space of your studio apartment. For convenient placement of things when planning such an apartment, provide space for a wardrobe. This is a very roomy and comfortable piece of furniture, which, thanks to the compact design of the doors that do not open outward, will take up very little space. It is better to place it in the corner of the room. If you choose a wardrobe with mirrored doors for your studio apartment, you can visually increase the area of your apartment.
For a room with different functional areas, spotlights that are best placed along the walls are best suited for recessed spotlights. It is important to consider how far each functional zone is from the window; the closer to the window the zone is located, the brighter the devices should shine. If the planned area will be located opposite a window, then you need to additionally illuminate it with fluorescent lamps.
When planning a bathroom, you can install a shower instead of a bath, thereby making this room more open. This way you can leave space for a sink or a convenient cabinet for towels and other accessories.
When planning the interior of a large studio apartment, try to choose light-colored furniture. In addition, it should not be massive so as not to take up space. It is better to give preference to more compact and functional furniture. Transforming models are ideal.
How to choose a suitable layout
In order to correctly plan the space of a large studio apartment, and in general, calculate and select the required area of such an apartment, you first need to decide for whom such an apartment will be furnished: for a large family or for one or two people. The specific layout of your studio apartment of 42-43 square meters will depend on this decision. m or more. Having decided on the number of residents and the number of functional zones, it is necessary to carry out the correct zoning of the studio apartment.
There are a huge number of zoning options. To do this, you can independently install partitions, pieces of furniture, cabinets, shelves with household appliances, and bar counters. Zoning with lighting and color, as well as zoning by creating a two-level ceiling and floor, are very popular now.

Selection of functional areas
The main thing is to decide which functional areas you need. If the area of your studio apartment is average, about 37-38 square meters. m, but not more than 39 sq. m, you should choose only the most necessary functional areas, discarding the unnecessary ones.
If you don’t like long family lunches and dinners, then you don’t need a dining area; in this case, you can install a comfortable transforming table or a stylish bar counter in the kitchen. If you rarely have guests at home, you may not have a living room in your studio; it can be replaced with a more spacious bedroom, work area or children’s room, depending on your preferences.
If your apartment is a little larger, then it can accommodate more functional areas, or, on a larger area, you can make more spacious areas. Having decided on the functional zones, their individual significance for you and their quantity, you can leave more space for one zone and less for another. This will allow you to make the most of the large space of your studio apartment of 60-65 sq. m. m. This area is the most optimal for planning a studio apartment, because more space will give you the freedom to choose interesting design solutions, and you will not be limited by boundaries.
Kitchen-living room

This option is perfect for an average studio apartment with an area of 44-45 square meters. m or more, since in such an apartment you can make a more spacious living room for cozy family gatherings or for meeting guests. In this case, the kitchen-living room will include at least two zones: a guest area (hall) and a kitchen area in which you will cook. Another option is three zones: a kitchen work area, a dining area and a guest area.
When decorating the kitchen and living room together, it turns out that one functional area is logically continued by another zone, that is, the kitchen smoothly transitions into the living room. At the same time, such a kitchen-living room is decorated in the same style and in the same color palette. You can install in such a kitchen the electronics you need, such as a TV, audio devices and others. Built-in household appliances are best suited for a kitchen-living room, since they take up less space and at the same time look very fashionable and modern. This technique even helps make the room more comfortable.
It is very important to install a hood in the kitchen-living room in a studio apartment so that it removes excess odors during cooking. It is best to choose a silent or very quiet hood model that would not disturb guests or household members in the living room with its noise. In addition, thanks to the use of a kitchen hood, you can protect curtains, tulle, rugs, pillows and upholstery of furniture located in the living room or other studio area from food odors, since these things have the property of quickly absorbing odors. Other consumer electronics for the kitchen in a studio apartment should also be fairly quiet, especially the refrigerator and other necessary kitchen appliances.
