Skillfully selected projects of one-story frame houses up to 100 sq. m can become a serious help in the arrangement of the site. Therefore, it is imperative to understand the features of stylish houses up to 100 m2, with options for their layout and design. But first, it’s worth finding out if it’s right to build such buildings at all.


Advantages and disadvantages
Drafters and many architects do not get tired of reminding about the advantages of one-story frame houses up to 100 sq. m. But in order to make the right decision, it is necessary to properly study this variant of dwellings, to weigh the pros and cons. The arguments in the discussions and estimates are varied, but they all equally show that one-story construction is more economical due to:
- abandonment of stairs;
- reducing the consumption of building materials;
- acceleration of work;
- simplify the routing of pipes and wires.


Subsequently, repairing a single-level house will be easier. Since there are no stairs, it is easier and safer to move around all rooms for small children and the elderly. However, there may not be enough space for everyone, and you will no longer have to count on a pleasant seclusion upstairs. It is curious that with the same quality of heat protection in a one-story house, it is more comfortable, and in winter there is less wind blowing. It's cooler in the summer.
But it should be understood that with an identical total area, a two-storey building will take up less useful space. This circumstance is very important if you plan to set up a vegetable garden, garden or otherwise actively use the site.


On a single floor, it will not be possible to effectively use the second light. There is no talk of arranging balconies either. In addition, it is worth figuring out why the limitation to 100 m2 is so relevant.
An increasing number of people are forced to put up with a lack of funds, and such a circumstance makes them abandon large-scale projects. Equally important, many of the larger cottages are impractical. They force a lot of time and effort to take care of the order, and ordinary repairs also become more expensive. Contrary to popular myth, 70-100 sq. m it is quite possible to accommodate everything required for life and not shrink. The main thing is to thoughtfully and thoroughly approach the choice of the optimal solution.



Layout options
If, however, the main living space is not enough, you can consider models with the addition of a basement. Even if it is not suitable directly for housing, the release of space at the expense of non-residential and auxiliary premises is also very promising. Both a workshop and a storage area can be located there. In many private houses, the basement serves as a garage. An 8x8 building can usually have a typical set of rooms:
- bathroom;
- guest area;
- hallway;
- kitchen;
- cellar;
- one or two bedrooms;
- storage room (storage room).


If it is decided to equip the house with a garage, it is recommended to choose 8x10 or 8x12 m plans. The choice between symmetrical and free arrangement of space inside is largely a matter of taste and personal needs.
Symmetrical placement means the garage and main living quarters will have a single roof. But between them there will definitely be a capital wall. The free format allows you to attach a garage to any side in a variety of ways.


To place a sauna in a one-story house, you should choose a room with optimal ventilation. But since natural ventilation will obviously not fulfill this task, it will be necessary to additionally stretch communications. Their location and technical features must also be specified in the project. When arranging the attic, the size of the window opening should be 8-10% of its total area. Experts consider an excellent option to insert a balcony into the roof.




Examples of projects
A simple arrangement involves a combination of a 4-meter hall and an 18-meter guest room. The area of the bathroom will be only 1.7 "square". But on the other hand, a rather large porch is equipped.

In this version, the bathroom is increased to 5.2 m2. Excellent dimensions of the kitchen, garage and guest area are provided; but there is no bedroom, and therefore it is more of a summer house.

Design
Classic houses are invariably stylish. Their symmetrical and well-defined contours are immediately eye-catching. Natural materials are preferred. A somewhat similar baroque is immediately distinguished by increased splendor, the use of columns and pilasters. It can be used only for certain parts of the building - otherwise it turns out to be too flashy and pretentious.

Additionally, you can use in the design:
smooth lines and floral motifs of Art Nouveau

laconic and natural minimalism

an elegant and visually pleasing chalet
