For many people, the loggia is a certain continuation of the main home space, and often there are not only some things are stored, but also a full life is organized. First of all, much depends on how much space we have. If the loggia is too small, then this space will not be able to bring this space. But there are quite large loggias, on the basis of which you can create a full room. In this case, it is simply necessary to weigh all the features of the existing loggia and extract the available opportunities.

This solution allows to significantly expand one of the rooms at home, while not resorting to some controversial and unsafe solutions.
Main details of the union of loggia with room
First you need to understand that the union of the loggia with a room is an extremely responsible process, which is actually dependent. In the event that the hosts are not confident in their own, as well as in financial capabilities, it is better not to start to this process, since it is possible to spoil the space. Separately, I would like to note that this process is advisable only with those small spaces, where it is simply necessary to expand the room. It can be one-room apartments, where each square centimeter of the square is greater importance. By the way, there are a lot of such dwellings, and everywhere the owners want to create comfortable conditions.
As for large rooms, the union with the loggia is a controversial decision that often does not make any sense. In such dwellings it is better to have separate loggia, as spaces are enough for most classes. If this is some kind of designer idea, then it needs to be carefully analyzed, and only after that implement.
It is necessary to understand in advance that the union of the loggia with a room is not just the removal of the extra part of the wall, this process includes many responsible works, following which a lot of problems can be gained. Accordingly, the need for specialists who will conduct the most responsible stages of work is definitely available.
Well, it is important to note that today you can safely use all the ideas that are available on the worldwide network. On the Internet, hundreds of options for uniting loggia and balconies with a room, and each variation has a number of pleasant features that have positively affecting the overall interior of the room, as well as on the comfort and increase in the useful space. If you agree to exist examples, then no surprises associated with the result of repair work will definitely not be.
Union of loggia with a room without restructuring
This variation is popular and really practical. The positive side of the use of an option without restructuring is the simplicity of repair work. It will require a minimum of home interventions.
- First of all, the feature is the fact that the windowsill here remains in place, and the door to the loggia is the only option to enter into an extended part of the space.
- Often, part that used to be a full-fledged loggia is used as a small workplace or office, or for modest space for children. You can equip small shelves and racks to convenient place books, magazines and other literature. In such conditions, many useful variations of the use of space can be used, however, in most of them, the windowsill performs a small but long table.
- The same space can perform a small pantry function, but in this case the loggia should be externally attractive, as it is a continuation of the main room. Here you can easily hide the ironing board, equip a small dressing room, or even create a miniature fitting room.
- In some cases, the loggia is used as a small winter garden, but only when the windows come south. Accordingly, in the area of \u200b\u200bthe loggia you can place plants, and regularly care for them. Such farms are becoming very popular, and especially convenient when access to plants has no obstacles.
Union of loggia with a room with a perestroika
Above, we analyzed some common options for arranging the loggia when combining with a room. However, in the event that it was about the absence of restructuring, that is, in terms of construction work there was a minimum amount.
If we are talking about restructuring, the task is sharply complicated. First of all, it is necessary to obtain resolution on redevelopment, otherwise construction work can become a serious problem, and the consequences can reach the largest fines.
In this case, it is understood that the owners can remove the carrier wall, and make the space of the loggia and the room one. In some cases, the hosts focuses on such an association, and sometimes specially hide all signs of construction work so that the room is perceived by a holistic.
However, the walls can also serve as a kind of zoning space, so therefore it is advisable to leave them to separate, for example, the main room, where you can spend the evening in front of the TV, and a former loggia where a large office desk can be installed and all the necessary accessories. The main thing is to ensure comfort in the existing space so that such a courageous connection of spaces does not create serious problems.
The process of preparation for the expansion of the room
Before starting the expansion of the room towards the loggia, it is necessary to thoroughly prepare. First you need to establish the purpose of the space. For example, the owners can plan to create a small office corner from the loggia, or a space for children's entertainment.
- In the event that the space of the loggia in the future will be used for children or for the arrangement of a small office, it is necessary to take care of insulation and sound insulation. Thus, it is to provide a certain comfort that the usual loggia cannot boast. At the same stage, you need to take care of the glazing of the window (instead of the loggia frame).
- If such work is carried out on the first floor, then here you should take care of the installation of outer roles. Security - first of all.
- It is necessary to keep in mind that in the future, when combining a loggia with a room, it will be necessary to get rid of the window and the windowsill. At the same time, the complete elimination of the wall is strictly prohibited, since the strength of the entire structure depends on this. In controversial situations, it is necessary to attract specialists who will give their assessment of the events.
- In those frequent cases when the sub-mounted stand should remain, you can use this surface for placing racks or bookshelves. It will also have a peculiar partition in the existing space.
- It should be noted that the battery is often installed near the suboofer tube. Accordingly, it is forbidden to remove it. In this situation, again, you need to refer to the specialists who will give their assessment of the situation.
Warming loggia
To begin with, it is necessary to understand that without the insulation of the loggia in the united space it will be very cold in winter. Especially bad when the wind will be sent to the wall, and then it will be impossible in the room.
Insulation is one of the few options for insulation of space. In addition, there are no full-fledged wall in old houses on loggias, and everything is limited to a small fence with railings. With this situation, it is necessary to equip a more reliable partition. Often, brickwork is made, which can perform a certain analogue of a full wall.
- Warming begins only after the loggia has high-quality and reliable glassy. At the same time, it should be borne in mind that if the lower and upper loggias are not glazed, it is necessary to equip and waterproofing.
- Often, experts are recommended to use Penoplex. This is an excellent thermal insulation material that is distinguished by excellent efficiency, especially in sufficiently limited conditions. Accordingly, it is necessary to install the penplex and simultaneously fix the seams by mounting foam. Immediately after that it is advisable to mount on top of the insulation of the foam (foil outward). It is worthwing to know that the foil side of the material is a heat reflector, so in this space even the minimum heat will remain inside.
- In some cases, 2 layers of insulation are created. On top of the first layer of insulation, wooden planks are stipulated, which are the basis for another insulation.
- Immediately after we placed isolation on the walls, you need to pay attention to its density. It is impossible to allow any gaps between units of insulation, since in such conditions the material efficiency drops sharply.
Start of finishing work
Immediately after the last unit of insulating material was securely fixed, it is possible to begin the process of decoration of space.
- First of all, you need to start a finish from the walls of the loggia. Often, the following materials are used: plasterboard, lining, dry-fiber, as well as plastic panels. Of course, on sale you can find quite a few other options, but first of all they should fit well into the existing style of space.
- Many owners make a decide to equip a warm floor. It is necessary to know in advance that this is a cost idea that, besides, can create a lot of problems. For example, if the laminate will be laid on the floor, then the system can damage it a bit. It is best to use carpet and laminate.
- In some cases, the material on the floor of the loggia and the room is selected the same. In this way, the visual association of space is created. Also, do not forget that the floor can be insulated in the same way as the walls, but there is no big necessity.
Stylish design of loggia
Often it turns out that the owners who have decided to combine the loggia with the room want to have a certain way to highlight the expansion. Thus, on the Internet you can find hundreds of various variations in the design of the loggia, each of which has its own characteristics. Directly designers are recommended to highlight the loggia, as such an unusual space will have a positive effect on those people who see something similar for the first time. At the same time, there is an opinion that if the room was expanded towards the loggia, it makes sense to create all the conditions for comfort, otherwise it is not clear why all this is intended. Thus, it is advisable to make a loggia only to the continuation of the cozy room.
Which of these options to use is the choice of owners, but you need to decide in advance what is the point in expanding the space.
- If a small office is created with an office table, you can separate the walls of the loggia with natural materials (boards, stones) and create soft lighting. In the same style, all other components of space are selected.
- Baby space on the loggia is very simple. To create it, it is necessary to choose bright finishing materials, most often it is a wallpaper with drawings. At the same time, images should at least correspond to finishing materials in the main room. Flooring can be any, but it is advisable to choose carpet. Such an environment will definitely like the children, and will also create a comfort in the room.
