Separation of the room into two zones

Zoning is one of the most important principles of planning a room. From a single space, several separate zones are allocated, designed for certain tasks, be it a functional organization of space or the introduction of certain design details. The division of a room into two or more zones can be useful in the following cases:

  1. Allocation of functional parts in the room . This method is used when in one room it is necessary to combine several functional areas, for example, to isolate the kitchen sector in the studio apartment, or to allocate a working space in the bedroom. This method is often used in small apartments or spacious rooms that combine several functions.
  2. Allocation of a private area . This method is used when it is necessary to separate the children's play zone, a place for reading or beds in a one-room apartment.
  3. Creating optical illusions . If the room is too large, then you can use furniture and certain design elements that will make it more compact and convenient for living. This technique can also be used when it is necessary to zonate a small room.

The methods of dividing the room into zones

To divide the room into several parts, different zoning methods are used, each of which has its own performance characteristics. So, if you need to create an original dynamic interior and allocate sites that perform different functions, then it is better to partition the room into areas with wallpaper. For this, wallpapers with various color shades and prints are suitable. So, the work corner in the bedroom can be pasted with monophonic wallpaper, while the whole room will be covered with bright wallpaper with a catchy drawing. Quite attractive look options with one accented wall, zadekorirovannoy unusual wallpaper. As a rule, a wall is located at the head of the bed or near the TV.

If you need to visually separate the private zone from the working area, then organize the division of the room into zones with decorative plasterboard partitions. They will hide you from the eyes of the guests and allow you to retire even in a one-room apartment. An important advantage of the partition is that it does not "overload" the space and looks much easier than a dead wall. Partitions can be made in the form of a half-wall, a built-in niche or shelf.

In the case where you want to zonate a room quickly and promptly, minimize rough work on installing walls, then you can use curtains or special screens. They look original and at the same time effectively divide the room into several parts. With the help of a screen, usually allocate a working or sleeping area in the house.

Another way to zoning the room is to use the podium. Under it, you can put a low bed on wheels or skids during the day, which saves a lot of space in the room. On the top of the podium, you can put a computer desk, an armchair, or organize a place for children's toys. If you decide to use the reception with the podium in your apartment, then carefully calculate its height in relation to the floor. It should be optimal for easy descent and ascent to the elevation.

In modern large-sized apartments you can use the idea with an unusual arrangement of furniture . Cabinets and sofas can be deployed perpendicular to the wall or push them to the middle of the living room. This method makes us psychologically perceive the allocated furniture as a separate zone. To denote this separation is a long enough shelving, high cabinet or bar.
