¡Más madera! para esta reforma integral

Voilà!Voilà!
Nos encontramos con una vivienda con doble orientación, grande, pero excesivamente compartimentada en la que se desaprovecha el espacio en circulaciones, pasillos y distribuidores. La vivienda se componía de 4 dormitorios, dos baños, un trastero, un gran distribuidor central sin luz, y una cocina y salón que abren a una terraza. Mediante el cambio de ubicación de la cocina y la transformación de uno de los dormitorios como zona de trabajo: Voilà!, conseguimos un gran espacio de día que se extiende por toda la vivienda obteniendo luz de ambas fachadas opuestas. Con un revestimiento a base de listones de pino natural encerado damos unidad al espacio a la vez que mejoramos la acústica de este gran espacio. Se han diseñado los muebles fijos de todas las estancias combinando el blanco con el mismo pino natural, resolviendo de este modo la demanda de almacenaje. La cocina se ha reutilizado aprovechando gran parte del mobiliario original al que solo se le han cambiado los tiradores y se ha incorporado algún módulo nuevo así como una barra maciza de madera. El recibidor de la vivienda cuenta con un armario para abrigos y ropa así como un banco donde descalzarse al llegar a casa. Desde aquí en el sentido transversal, se desarrolla la zona de día con la secuencia terraza-despacho-cocina-comedor-estar-terraza. Al abrir uno de los dormitorios a la zona de día y habilitarlo como zona de trabajo conseguimos un espacio pasante de fachada a fachada. Desde el mueble del recibidor se prolonga hasta la zona de estar un enlistonado de madera de pino. Revestimiento de listones de pino de distintas secciones a lo largo de la zona de día con iluminación superior para darle unidad al conjunto, mejorar la acústica del espacio y ocultar armarios de instalaciones y la puerta del almacén/trastero. En el dormitorio principal hemos instalado un cabecero en madera de pino encerado mate con iluminación indirecta, también regulable en su intensidad. En el baño hemos combinado porcelánico gris cemento con baldosa blanca texturizada en la zona de la ducha. El mueble de lavabo se ha resuelto mediante dos baldas en el mismo tablero de pino que se ha usado en el resto de la vivienda. Griferías empotradas, lavabo en superficie y tira de Led en superficie completan el conjunto. Hemos ocultado la lavadora/secadora mediante una mampara de enlistonado de pino siguiendo el mismo criterio de la zona de día. Los dormitorios secundarios ahora tienen su acceso desde la zona de trabajo liberando así más espacio para armarios. En estas estancias se ha mantenido la tarima original. Se ha instalado una tarima de roble blanqueado en 3 capas sobre los rastreles originales, mientras que para la cocina se opta por un pavimente porcelánico con motivos geométricos. Encimera de cocina de cuarzo blanco y barra de madera maciza de roble natural. En el diseño de cada mueble fijo se ha tenido muy en cuenta la iluminación.

Medium Sized Purple Entrance Ideas and Designs

The entrance of your home is a critical area to design well because as we all know, first impressions count. As the first thing that visitors will see when they arrive, your entrance is your opportunity to offer guests a warm welcome while introducing the personality of your home. Equally important, it welcomes you home every day, so make it somewhere that you’re glad to come home to. The entrance to your home begins the moment you get to the front door, so make sure both inside and out get the attention of your decorator’s touch. Make your foyer the best possible introduction to the rest of the house, and if you wish, you can have a bit of fun with the doorway; paint, tiles, door handles and lighting are all ways to make front doors a statement – a dramatic entrance, if you will.

What front doors can I choose from?

Your first decision when updating front doors is what type of external doors you want to use, taking into account style, security and accessibility. Investing in a high quality front door is always worthwhile – this is a purchase where a little extra money goes a long way. Hardwood exterior doors remain the most popular choice of front door; as well as being the most economical, timber also opens the door to an endless selection of paint, hardware and embellishment. However, natural wood doors do have their downsides – prone to warping, they require more upkeep and may require replacing if not adequately cared for. Whether you opt for solid oak external doors or an oak veneer option, wooden doors are a match made in heaven for period architecture – it’s hard to imagine a Georgian house without a solid, six-panel door, or a Victorian home sans its gleaming hardware and stained glass panes. If you prefer non-wooden exterior doors, the alternatives are UPVC doors, GRP doors (collectively known as composite doors) and steel doors. UPVC front doors are often the most inexpensive alternative to timber and offer added insulation benefits; because the material itself can be a comparatively insubstantial, UPVC external doors are built into steel door frames for added reinforcement. GRP (glass-reinforced plastic, or fibreglass to you and me) doors offer the same properties, with a woodgrain effect that can provide a happy medium for lovers of timber. Steel doors are less widely used in the UK than the US, and make great contemporary front doors thanks to their sleek, modern appearance.

How do I decorate my doorway?

Renovating or replacing your front doors is one of the quickest ways to give your home a makeover, and affords the perfect opportunity to add a splash of colour to the front of your home. To improve your front door’s kerb appeal you can flank the doorway with decorative trees or flowering plants in attractive planters and “dress” the door with shiny hardware. Door knockers and door knobs can be more than functional with a range of styles and materials available to add some personality to exterior doors. A traditional brass door knocker can be the perfect complement to a solid oak doorway painted in a rich shade of green or blue, whilst contemporary chrome door hardware will look perfect against a white or eggshell door. If you are looking for an elegant front door option, opt for a hardwood door with built in obscured glass panels to let light into your hallway. If you would rather avoid a glass paned front door for security reasons then smaller decorative glass panels can also be inserted into the surround or door frame. You can choose stained glass panes for decorative effect, patterned or textured glass will allow light in but protect your privacy or get your home name or number etched into a glass pane for a practical but personal touch.

How should I light my front entrance?

The warm glow from a doorway is one of the most welcoming sights that can greet us when we arrive home. An entrance light is of practical importance – we have all spent time fumbling for our house keys in the dark – but it also offers an opportunity to add warmth and character to front doors and entrances. A wall mounted lantern is a charming traditional choice, or for bright, directed illumination opt for a security spotlight. There are a whole variety of switching options available – you can choose a motion sensor light that switches on right when you need it most, a timer light that will offer illumination on a fixed schedule or a switched outdoor light. Pointing light upward is a good way to avoid harsh glare, or choose recessed lighting if you prefer not to have a hanging light in front of your external doors. An entrance is also a great place to display lighting as a decorative feature – choose a table lamp that echoes the lines and colours of the hall beyond it.

What furniture and storage do I need in my entryway?

It’s important to keep the entrance to your home as open and clutter free as possible, so selecting a few practical items that will help with storage and offer a warm welcome is the best approach for this area. Coat stands, umbrella holders and shoe racks are practical foyer additions that will keep the area tidy. For the knick knacks and paraphernalia that so often accumulate by front doors, sideboards or console tables are helpful and opting for a something with a drawer is a clever trick to ensure these things can be stowed out of sight. If you have the space, an armchair, occasional chair or hallway bench will prove useful for perching on when removing shoes and definitely consider multi-functional furniture such as a storage bench for shoes. A wall mounted shoe cabinet is a must have for a tighter space, getting shoes off the floor and neatly stowed away.

How do I decorate my foyer?

Particularly in the entrance to the home, colour can be a wonderful tool to set the tone of the house. Neutral palettes can create a serene atmosphere appropriate for greeting guests; alternatively, you might find yourself being a little bit more adventurous by choosing a whimsical wallpaper or a bold wall colour that could look overwhelming anywhere else in the house. In either case, the foyer can be blended seamlessly into the home with details that connect it to adjoining rooms. Even if your entrance is not self-contained, instead with exterior doors that open straight into the house, visual tricks make it possible to create the illusion of an entryway by defining the space as such. Changes in flooring, a well-placed rug, a screen or curtain, or even furniture such as a console table or coat rack, can be used to delineate the space and distinguish the entrance from the rest of the hallway. Decorating walls and furniture with photographs or artwork is a simple way of bringing your personality into the foyer and plants, lamps, candles, vases and ornaments can be displayed on windowsills, tables or shelves. As a final thoughtful touch, mirrors placed next to front doors are a practical choice for those last minute appearance checks, as long as it’s not directly opposite the doorway, which could back-light the user – decidedly not helpful!
