Will appear later the first home-huts, or piles of rough stone structure (the historians do not give a precise answer, what exactly was the first house person) - performs the same function as the cave, that is, basically, designed to protect against external adverse factors and dangers.

Later, when people have already learned to construct more complex structures, the requirements for housing began to increase. People began to plan his house, both inside and outside (in courtyard), with regard to their life. Planning has become an important factor, which depended on the kind of man and his lifestyle.
On the layout of the house is affected by many conditions - geographic location, terrain and building materials, occupation of the person or the entire settlement, the traditions of society and social situation of the future tenants. Many of these factors are important in our days.

From ancient times, came to us many methods of construction and types of planning. For example, the story frame building consists of several thousand years. Construction of the house facilities for cooking - the kitchen - was the crucial moment at the dawn of mankind. Enfilade and corridor system in which one pass goes through several rooms, or parallel to it - also used for a long time, and were especially prevalent in the Middle Ages in the palaces of the rulers, or just the important and wealthy people.

In our country in the last century was dominated model construction. "Stalinka", "Khrushchev", "Brezhnev's home" - the classification of "lots of ruler's name" - used to date and understandable to everyone. Although it should be noted that within these series, there are differences. For example, Stalin's home in the conventional sense - this massive building with high ceilings and plenty of room, big kitchen and bathrooms. However, many "Stalin" is small rooms absurd forms and lack the bathroom, since they were built for the mass accommodation of the working class.
"Khruschev" also built different. There is a makeshift panels, which on initial designs were intended for temporary housing solutions before the onset of communism. Such houses in Moscow, for example, before 2010 should be completely demolished. There are more sturdy brick "Khrushchev, who until the demolition is not needed.

Model building still exists today, but the series has become considerably more, and most importantly - has received widespread construction of individual projects, which may eventually displace the same type "concrete box".

Large apartment complexes and small private cottages are now often built by the architect of world renown. They have requirements for planning are not limited to the existence of "comfort" in the form of baths and toilets. All the latest developments to ensure the comfort and modern style of life are used in individual homes of our time.
"Theater begins with a hanger, and the house starts with the hall - this is the first zone, which gets people going into the house. There must be enough space to house owners and guests can take off clothes and hang it, and place the shoes.
Then everything is dependent on the number of family members and their lifestyle, according to which must zonirovat interior - kitchen, living room, bedrooms, bathrooms, utility rooms.

It often happens that two-bedroom and three bedroom apartments have a similar area. In this case, you must focus on the number of family members and the required number of bedrooms.

By modern standards, the kitchen must have sufficient space to perform the function of a dining room and bedrooms arranged as far as possible from busy public areas - parental bedroom should have its own large bathroom. Second or third, smaller in size bathroom, planned a "guest" and is projected closer to the entrance of the apartment.

Contact zones between them is possible to realize differently. Zones can go directly to one another, or be associated buffer space, for example, a corridor. However, we must remember that in today's housing availability of long corridors or hallways tie is less - because these areas are not operational and only take up living space - and that applies to this type of error, like the inefficient ratio of residential and nonresidential areas. On the contrary, in old apartments with redevelopment is taken to increase the living space through uninhabited. Thus, according to experts, the ratio of residential to nonresidential area shall be not less than 1,8.

Figures are examples of successful planning. Immediately you can notice that in these examples are no corridors, eat up valuable space in the home. Meters housing here used the most functional. Zones relate hall-hall and moving smoothly from one to another - ie, the area used most effectively. Bedrooms on the examples are remote from the kitchen, there are several bathrooms. Private and guest area is clearly divided.

By unfortunate disposition may include facilities with long corridors that occupy large areas, or flat area over 50 square meters - but having only one bathroom, or planning with a small kitchen. It is extremely inconvenient continuous rooms.
In addition, there are often elongated room, pencil cases, reaching a long rectangle of the window - awkward in shape, with poor lighting, difficult to adjust for a comfortable stay.
Zoning can also be a failure - for example, direct "neighborhood" (next door), kitchen and toilet - a serious minus for the overall comfort of the home. Or as a failure is the location of the only bathroom at the opposite end from the entrance to the apartment.

When you lay flat to draw attention to future routes displacement of tenants in the apartment. For example, if you want to install a home theater system in the living room, it is best to choose a layout, in which the living will not pass. Otherwise, constantly passing by tenants or guests will interfere with viewing.

Summarizing, we can identify the basic requirements for planning of residential space:
1. Buffer, dysfunctional area (corridors, halls) do not take up much space. On the contrary, everything has been planned so that almost all the space given functional area.
2. Sami area conveniently placed and interconnected.

Planning home - a serious issue that besides the obvious has a number of stealth, not conspicuous factors, but no less important. For example, when planning is necessary to adhere to a series of regulations affecting the security of the home. In addition, certain rules when planning residential enshrined in law, and their need to negotiate and attach documents. Therefore, determining their wishes to the house planning, will never be more than turn to experts who can explain the advantages and disadvantages of a particular layout.
