"Again, we do not have enough space!" - how many times has to pronounce this sentence residents of small apartments and small houses. Indeed, no matter how well thought out plan was worth guests arrive, as places at all sorely lacking. Result - owners have to frantically think, where to place people move furniture, drag and drop tables and chairs.

At the same time, no, no, yes, sorry, that at the time did more living room, and the kitchen would not have prevented the extra square footage.

Only whether it is necessary to increase the living room or kitchen in order to several times a year to sit there with a noisy company? After all, most of the time, this "extra" area is not claimed.

For such cases, the architects from Spain, developed the concept of "rapidly changing home." The idea is as follows. Apartment or house is zoned in the active and inactive use of the room. For example, the bedroom during the day is not commonly used, while in the living room or the kitchen to spend most of the daytime. That means we need to create a system that would allow free and reallocate the unused space, depending on the needs of the tenants. So there was a project called Casa Stella.

The system works as follows. With the conventional wall mean length 4.5 meters and a height of 3 meters moves between living and sleeping by means of the actuator. Wall "goes" on the special guide, fixed on the ceiling. Bottom mounted rollers. Such a method allows the flexibility to change the useful floor space, bringing or removing the wall.

Also in the wall are "hidden" Double-transformer and a folding table. On the image below clearly shows the principle of this concept.

For example, getting up in the morning, you "hide" the bed against the wall. Then go about their business in the event of the arrival of guests or if the children need space for active play, a key is pressed, and the wall moved. As a result, part of the living room becomes a bedroom.

Next folds extending table, hidden in the wall, and a small living room is transformed into a large hall. After the guests left wall is moved back to its place.

To check if the apartment was built concept. During the shifting walls, the living room area was increased from 22 to 37 m in 30 seconds. In the event of power failure "jammed" wall can be easy to move from place by one person.

According to the architect, who developed the project, it is - just the beginning. In the future, with the advent of new materials and thanks to computer modeling, sliding walls will be laid at the stage of designing the house.

This will allow to adjust the room "by itself", increasing or decreasing the useful space without changing the total area of ​​the house.

At this stage, the system being piloted. The developers are looking for further options for combining and combining living quarters. The variants of placing the built-in furniture. According to a young couple, a test this project, at first it was strange. Over time, they liked the concept so much that they now can not imagine how one can live in an apartment without a "fast-changing walls."

Such projects are still perceived as exotic. From a practical point of view, for small apartments and cottages over demand transforming furniture.

For example:

Two-tier bed-transformer. During the day it looks like a sofa, combined with the cabinet, and before going to sleep, thanks to the easy-opening the stick, it turns into a bunk bed.

Compact sliding kitchen cabinet 2.2h1.3h0.6 meters.

This kitchen can take with them when moving to a new place of residence. It can be equipped with a small-sized house, where the "weight in gold" per square meter of living space.

The list of equipment includes such specialties:

  • cleaning;
  • induction cooker;
  • refrigerator;
  • microwave;
  • Dishwasher;
  • LED lightening.

To access the kitchen equipment is sufficient tilt the panel or open the swinging door that moves on wheels.

For ease of connection to utilities in the rear wall of mini-kitchen made individual findings for water and electricity. Depending on the customer may change the set of kitchen appliances, material for decoration suspended facades. Also, the process of transformation can be performed by pressing the button on the remote control.
