Open plan layout help

2 years ago

last modified: 2 years ago

We recently purchased a 80's built detached property and we are looking to create a modern open plan family living space with kitchen dinning and living space.

We have a small garden and hence we are not very keen on any significant extension work as such but not sure if we have enough space to fit all three functions.

currently three are seperate rooms (but smallish) and we want to just open up , is this a good idea and what would be a good layout to accomodate kitchen, dinning and living space in this area.

see the existing layout and what we are thinking of below

red lines represent where we want to extend the walls to at the back so that its all in one line and greens represent where we are planning to remove existing walls.

We plan to change the existing dinning room into a snug seperate from the open plan living space.

some ideas or suggestion would be very much appriciated.

thanks

I see that you have doubts with the distribution of your space, to begin with, it is important to define your needs, a good study will allow you to take better advantage of the space and the passage areas, that everything is connected.

I invite you to look at some of my 3D.

If you are interested in continuing to deepen and you want me to help you create a space made to suit you, and your needs, you can write to me at:

I agree with everything said so far. Would suggest you get built in book shelvers on both sides of fireplace, lift tv into a slot it fits perfectly into (make sure you have power on both sides). Then it will disappear more rather than fight with fireplace as focal point. I am always disappointed with mirrors over fireplaces, they become dark, are to high to reflect much. Plus then you have three rectangles fighting for center stage. I'd say very colorful artwork instead. Wonder if you can reorient tv where the big chairs are so both tv and fireplace are addressed? Color, maybe you should decide on furniture first?

We have open plan and I love it! What lifestyle do you have? Do you entertain? Do you have kids? Do you enjoy hanging out together or do you like to have time alone? You need to think about how you live in the house and what works best for you. Also, are you a traditional type or more modern/contemporary styling?

A few things I would change from experience...instead of a single and double door I would spend the extra money and put in a bifold corner section...would open up the space so much more. as for the kitchen...completely flip your design...put your breakfast bar closer to the window...make it large and multipurpose with the hob in it and then put your main band of cabinets either left, right or behind? We have recently restructured our existing cabinets to this layout and put in new countertops and it works far better than before!

I really like what Jonathan did with the extension. Adding two corners might be nearly as much work as the whole lounge area, so I'd keep the current back wall+windows (as 2.3m is tight for a seating area with tv anyway).
