G shaped house. L-shaped houses

18.08.2019

The variety of house shapes is impressive, but not all of them are dictated by fashion and beauty. There are those aimed primarily at rationalizing the already existing territory, which may not have the most regular geometric shapes.

So, for example, L-shaped houses began to be built on corner plots, where the construction of a rectangular house was very difficult due to the fact that such a house would occupy a significant part of the land plot. Initially, designers and builders sought to reduce the area under the house.

The project of the house with the letter G sheathed with clapboard

And then the projects were overgrown with design solutions that make the house, designed and built in the shape of the letter L, not only functional, rational and compact, but also stylish and beautiful.

In this article, we will look at the key points that you should pay attention to when choosing an L-shaped house project. We will acquaint you with the advice of builders and designers on the arrangement of this type of houses. Let's define the advantages and disadvantages of L-shaped structures.

Before you start building a house, you need to determine its location on the site. And here the experts share their advice:

What else should you pay attention to when designing an L-shaped house? Of course, the organization of the entrance to the house. In this case, several options are possible.

In the first case, the projects of L-shaped houses offer to organize one entrance, located in the inner corner of the house. In this case, the entrance to the dwelling will always be protected from the weather, but such an arrangement is not always convenient. Therefore, an alternative to these projects is the organization of the entrance from one of the gables of the house. Often it is combined with.

Option for the layout and location of premises in the cottage with the letter G

But this is not always functional, for example, if the house is intended for several generations or just a large family. Therefore, the most rational is the organization of two independent entrances to the house, located from different gables of the building.

There is one point that you should pay attention to even at the stage of designing a house - this is the width of the gables. It can be the same for both wings of the building or different. Often the pediment is made wider and smaller in length. This technique does not distort the architecture of the building, making the facade of the home more attractive and stylish.

Depending on the style in which your L-shaped dwelling is designed, or.

The project of a stylish modern house with the letter G

The most demanded projects are L-shaped houses made of rounded or glued beams. , made in the shape of the letter L, country and. As in the case of U-shaped houses, experts do not recommend building multi-storey houses from a bar in the shape of the letter L. It is worth limiting yourself to building one floor.

If a one-story house is small in size for you, then it is better to equip an attic and a high basement than a full-fledged second floor.

This is due to many reasons, but the main one is that it is much easier to redevelop and repair. Drawings of L-shaped houses involve the arrangement of a built-in garage, terrace or spacious veranda.

L-shaped houses, projects which are presented in the catalog of our company, are perceived by many potential owners of private houses as a kind of atavism and as a symbol of a bygone architectural era. And absolutely in vain. Today, thanks to a number of technological solutions and modern building materials (not only wall, but primarily roofing) L-shaped houses forms experiencing a real renaissance of their popularity.

Let's see what caused the growing demand for such housing in the Russian low-rise real estate market? How relevant are the projects of L-shaped houses for solving the needs of the customer?

Corner house project: rationality or forced necessity?

corner houses L-shaped forms appeared in low-rise construction for a long time. Projects of corner houses can be traced in a wide variety of world cultures. But in fairness, it should be noted that in the past such a form of housing in the overwhelming majority of cases was dictated primarily by external factors, and only occasionally by the desires of its customers. Such external factors primarily include the specific shape or area of the available land. That is, earlier projects of L-shaped houses were embodied on triangular, trapezoidal and other allotments of a non-rectangular configuration, the intersection of two streets, or in cases where the customer definitely needed to have two front facades at once.

However, a little later, in the process of direct operation of such housing, its identified advantages turned out to be so numerous that such cottages began to be built on a variety of land plots. Not least, this was facilitated by a variety of design L-shaped houses and carefully thought-out layouts that take into account the individual requirements of the buyer.

Advantages and disadvantages of projects of L-shaped houses

Among the advantages that modern L-shaped corner houses can boast of include:

Exceptional opportunities for organizing internal space for any purpose on the site, closed from prying eyes. Inside this configuration of a plot with a cottage, you can arrange a cozy patio with a barbecue or a swimming pool, a playground, a gazebo for gatherings with friends or other options;
Providing good protection to the courtyard space from wind exposure;
The device of two entrances in different wings of the cottage, which is beneficial in a number of cases (a two-family house, the device of an outbuilding for servants or a zone for guests of the house in one of the wings, etc.);
Single storey L-shaped houses due to the lack of stairs are a good housing option for the elderly, families with small children and people with disabilities;
IN private An L-shaped house, regardless of its number of storeys, at the junction of two parts of the house, a closed or open terrace will ideally fit. This solution is especially relevant for corner houses made of logs or timber;
The corner configuration of the cottage allows you to perform a very successful zoning of the premises. For example, in different wings of a one-story house, households of different generations, guests and owners, masters and servants (if the area of \u200b\u200bthe house allows) can live. Double storey corner or L-shaped houses with an attic have even more zoning potential. Most often, with such an architectural design, the first floor is reserved for rooms intended for visiting by outsiders (living room, dining room, kitchen, and others) and technical areas (garage, boiler room, workshop). The attic or second floor is usually reserved for private rooms - bedrooms for family members, an office, a gym, and the like.
With proper zoning and the use of glazing of a decent area, corner houses can save a decent amount of money on lighting.

Of course, with all its many advantages, this kind of cottages is not ideal. Among the difficulties faced by the developers of corner house projects or households living in them include:

the difficulty of implementing L-shaped stairs in the case of an attic solution for such housing;
the high cost of the roof in comparison with the roofing system of traditional housing of the same area;
the problematic operation of the roof at the junction during snowfall or other precipitation.

Projects of L-shaped houses: styles and materials

Corner houses are most often made of various types of stone, brick and logs. The choice of material is most often dictated by the desires and financial capabilities of the buyer, as well as its stylistic compatibility with other planned buildings on the site. The use of wooden building materials - logs or timber - in comparison with stone or brick allows you to significantly reduce the estimate for the construction of a cottage, regardless of its area and number of storeys.

If we talk about style, then most often the projects of L-shaped houses made of wood are made in the form of a chalet, country cottage, modern or buildings in the traditions of Russian wooden architecture. Corner cottages, among the brightest representatives of which are projects D-201 and D-204 from the MariMagnat company, for the most part have a one-story design. This is due to the leveling of some of the shortcomings of housing of a similar configuration. If we analyze the projects of corner houses being implemented in Russia and cottages, only 30% of their diversity refers to attic or two-story houses.

If you are interested in the opportunity to order a log L-shaped cottage"turnkey", all the potential and experience of our company's specialists are at your service. We can offer the implementation of individual projects of such housing according to your requirements and their construction in any region of the Russian Federation. Ordering the entire range of work - from design to construction of a private house - from one contractor in the person of "MariMagnat" will allow you to save significant funds and at the same time ensure the shortest possible time for its implementation.

The primary task that the owners face even before building a house is choosing a place for it on the site. There is a basic rule: the corner of the house should be located in the northern part, then it will be possible to organize a cozy patio, protected from the wind.
In the patio, you can build a terrace that visually "completes" the house to a rectangular or square shape.
In the project of L-shaped houses, their wings can be either the same in area and length, or different. By the way, if 2 families or several generations of the same family live in the house, then it would be right to make 2 independent entrances.
The project of the house with the letter G allows you to build a garage as harmoniously as possible, having a common wall with it and, accordingly, an entrance. Imagine how comfortable it is to unload purchases or just come home, bypassing the bad weather on the street. The garage can be connected to the building's heating system, and this will reduce costs compared to if you had to heat a separate garage.
A home design can be designed to separate a noisy area, such as a playroom or children's room, from a quiet area, such as a library or office. Thus, everyone will be able to get along peacefully, and no one will disturb or annoy anyone.
As a rule, the project of a house with the letter G does not provide for the construction of a second floor, so it does not require an impressive foundation. This way you can save money on it. However, if desired, it is possible to design both an attic and a two-story building - on this page you will find such projects.

Competent layout in houses with the letter G

In addition to separating the noisy and quiet zones, it should be remembered that technical rooms should be provided in a private house, for example, for a boiler room or pantry. And wet areas where the bathroom or sauna are located should be isolated. The boiler room should be located on the basement floor, so hot water and heat will be evenly distributed throughout the house. If your house is made of wood or wood-based materials, then the boiler room should be treated with fire retardants.
If you have a two-story house, then a bathtub with a toilet can be located both on the first and second floors. This point should also be taken into account when ordering a typical or individual project of an L-shaped house.

Buildings on this type of sites can be erected in several basic options. The house with the letter "G" is suitable for a small area of \u200b\u200boblong shape, where it is impossible to implement the project documentation of a square house. Such a house will be comfortable and practical. Often this building has only one floor. Such projects of corner houses are suitable for those who want everything they need to always be at hand and do not require climbing and descending stairs. This option, in particular, is quite suitable for the construction of a country house.

A two-storey building is chosen by those who strive for space and an abundance of rooms, as well as owners of large families. It is also quite possible to build imposing buildings on corner plots. The number of floors, balconies, verandas may vary. Projects of corner houses of considerable size are very popular due to the ability to fully reveal the creative potential of their owners.

How the project is being worked on

Before you go to the architect, it is worth figuring out a rough plan for your future home. Then it will be easier for you to explain to the specialist what you want. At the first stage of cooperation, a technical task is created. It is sent to designers who are working on every detail of the future home. Projects of corner houses provide for the creation of a cost estimate, which, upon completion of work on the documentation, is finally specified.

It should be noted that experienced and qualified designers not only bring your plans to life. They are ready to offer you a solution to any architectural problem that arises during the work. Sometimes this leads to the fact that one or more creative ideas have to be sacrificed. But the result is worth it, because your home should be not only beautiful and status, but also cozy, comfortable and safe. Projects of corner houses can be selected from our catalog of finished projects or ordered individually. But, no matter which way of cooperation you choose, the work of real professionals is always transparent and always consistent with your preferences.

Any architectural and construction project consists of three parts: architectural, design and engineering. This is a document without which the developer will not receive permission to start construction.

The main part of the project is the architectural and design sections. If the customer is sure that there are intelligent specialists in engineering networks in the construction team, then the development of this part of the project in a specialized company can be abandoned. But it is necessary to understand that the architect, designer and engineer are working on the project together and such moments as, for example, strobes and openings in the walls for laying pipes and wires, are foreseen by them in advance.

The engineering part of the project is divided into several parts

Water supply and sewerage (VK)

water supply scheme
sewerage scheme
general view of the system.

Before proceeding with the design, it is necessary to decide what kind of communication will be - individual or connected to a centralized system.

Individual water supply gives complete independence from external conditions. But it must be remembered that you will need your own sources of water, and drilling a well will cost a decent amount.

Connection to a centralized system will require designing in accordance with the specifications of the existing network and obtaining permission for tie-in.

When connecting a sewer to a centralized system, the procedure is the same as when connecting a water supply: making a request to the relevant services, developing a project, obtaining permission to tie into the system. If you decide to organize an individual sewer system, then from time to time you will have to invite a sewer service.

Heating and ventilation (HV)

heating scheme: calculation of the required power of the equipment, distribution schemes for heating mains, location of pipes and radiators
ventilation scheme: binding to power electrical equipment, ventilation communications and shafts, passage nodes and, if necessary, the location of stoves and fireplaces
boiler piping (if necessary)
general instructions and recommendations for the section.

If the ventilation system is always an individual design, then heating can be either individual (stove, air, water, electric), or connected to centralized networks.

Power supply (ETR)

lighting layout
wiring of power networks
ASU scheme
grounding system
detailed description and characteristics of all elements of the system.

Electrical systems can be divided into mandatory and optional. Mandatory include indoor and outdoor lighting, ventilation, air conditioning and electric heating systems. Additional systems include systems such as "Warm floor" or automated gate control.

IMPORTANT

Each part of the engineering section of the project should contain general and technical descriptions, specifications of materials and necessary equipment.
Drawings of elements of all systems and floor electrical wiring are made on a scale of 1:100.

Price: from 100 rubles. behind m²

Package "Engineering networks"

The project of engineering networks will allow you to competently lay communications and make the house truly comfortable and modern.

Price: from 100 rubles. per m²

Making changes to the project

Often, the customer is faced with the question: choose a typical house project and save money, while losing on the originality of future housing, or order an individual project, but for a lot of money.

Our company offers a compromise option. You order a standard project, and we make changes to it, taking into account all your wishes as much as possible. Of course, this implies additional costs, but, in any case, such a project will cost much less than work for a specific order. And we will make sure that your house looks original.

The following changes can be made to the project of the house:

move wall partitions. But only if they are not carriers. This operation will allow you to change the size and purpose of the rooms.

moving window and door openings will allow you to change the illumination of the rooms and organize convenient access to the rooms you need

changing the type of floors and walls will allow you to fully realize your own ideas about economical and rational housing

change ceiling heights. Although all our houses are designed with an optimal room height of 2.8 m, some customers find high ceilings to be an additional coziness and comfort.

conversion of the attic into a living space will give you the opportunity to expand your own living space

it is worth changing the angle of inclination of the roof and canopies, taking into account the climatic conditions of a particular region

it is necessary to change the type of foundation, taking into account the engineering and geological parameters of the soil. It is also possible to add or change a basement or basement

add, remove, change a garage or a terrace, you can, in accordance with your ideas about the functionality of housing

changing the structural composition, building and finishing materials will allow you to economically manage your own financial resources

a mirror image project will allow you to organically fit the house into the surrounding landscape.

The changes made should not affect the safety of the home.

Too many changes usually do not improve the project. If you could not choose a suitable house in the catalogs, then it may be worth ordering an individual project from an architect.

Price: from 2000 rubles.

Package "Foundation adaptation"

When a typical project of a house is being developed, then some average soil parameters are taken as a basis. But, without having the exact data of the geological expertise, it is difficult to take into account all the nuances in the design. Therefore, often the engineering and geological characteristics of a real site differ significantly from those originally laid down in the project. And this means that the foundation - the basis of the whole house - will need to be finalized in order to make it strong and reliable.

To completely eliminate all problems when laying the foundation, the specialists of our company have developed a package "Adaptation of the foundation". When implementing the package, not only technical characteristics are taken into account, but also the wishes of the customer.

This package includes:

choice of foundation type
calculation of technical parameters:

Foundation footing depth
- load bearing capacity
- indicators of soil stress under the base of the foundation
- cross-sectional area of the working reinforcement, etc.

detailed drawings of the zero cycle
cost sheet for building materials.

Adaptation of the foundation gives a full guarantee of its strength, and hence the reliability of the entire building. You are guaranteed to get rid of problems such as shrinkage and cracks during the operation of a finished house. Moreover, often the adapted foundation turns out to be cheaper than the option originally laid down in the project. And this will help save materials and financial resources.

Price: 14,000 rubles.

Package "Foundation adaptation"

Carefully prepared foundation project - a strong and reliable home

Price 14,000 rubles.

Individual design

If you decide to build a house, then you have your own idea of what your dream home should be like. And if none of the standard projects suits you, it makes sense to think about an individual project. In addition, it will take into account all your wishes as much as possible: the level of comfort, family composition, even the view from the window. It is clear that such a project will cost a lot. But you will know for sure that there is no other like it.
Sometimes, however, you have to resort to individual design forcedly. For example, the developer got a plot of land of a non-standard configuration, and not a single standard project simply fits into it. And it also happens that the number of changes made by the customer is such that it is easier and cheaper to design a house from scratch.

Stages of work on an individual project:

development of technical specifications for the design of a house
contract for design work
preparation of a draft design: linking the building to the terrain, external and internal views, layouts, sections
detailed study of sections of the project.

In addition, you can also order:

projects of additional structures - a garage, a workshop, a bathhouse, etc.
visualization of the project in 3D format.

Ultimately, the customer receives a package of design documentation, consisting of architectural and structural sections.

The project features:

The general plan of the house with its binding to the boundaries of the site.
Floor plans, which indicate the thickness of walls, lintels and partitions, the area of \u200b\u200bthe premises, the specification of windows and doorways.
Facade plans with indication of finishing materials and color schemes.
Sections of the building and main units.
Drawings and sections of the foundation, bill of materials.
Calculation of the ceiling, roof truss system, roof insulation and waterproofing units.

You can decide on the style of the future home in the catalog "Individual design".

Package "Tender offer"

For any developer, the question from a cheerful nursery rhyme "what should we build a house ...?" far from idle. Moreover, the cost of building a house depends on many factors. Therefore, you should not estimate the costs "by eye". Without complete information, it will not work to calculate everything to the smallest detail and, in the end, it will cost yourself more. And besides, a careful calculation of the cost of materials and work affects not only your finances, but also the timing of building a house.

You can calculate the construction costs with the utmost accuracy using the "Tender offer" service developed by our specialists. In fact, this is a document that provides a complete list of all building materials and work, indicating their volumes.

The presence of a tender offer allows:

get a real picture of the costs of upcoming construction
attract a construction company that is able to offer the most favorable conditions for the performance of work
not only understand the essence of the construction process, but also competently control the consumption of building materials, independently adjusting prices for each item
competently supervise the actions of contractors at all stages of construction

a tender offer supported by information on the cost of materials and construction work is a serious argument for obtaining bank loans.

Package "Tender offer"

Tender offer:

Request a detailed quote. Build for yourself!

Price 10 500 rubles.

Package "Anti-ice"

Snowdrifts and ice in the winter on the roof of your house cause a lot of trouble. You can, of course, climb onto the roof and wave a shovel in the cold for 2-3 hours - that's business. But effective snowmelt and anti-icing systems have long been invented and widely used. Their basis is heating cables. The system is organized on the same principle as the "warm floor". Only more powerful and the cable laying step is smaller.

The Anti-Ice package is developed taking into account the peculiarities of the power supply of the house:

for roofs and gutters: snowmelt in gutters, at the edge of the roof in order to prevent the formation of icicles and frost in the pipes

for the entrance group: heating of steps, paths and open areas

for the entrance to the garage: heated driveways

in addition, sometimes the Anti-Ice system is used for heating the soil in greenhouses, and for landscape heating of flower beds, lawns and lawns, as well as for heating sports facilities.

During the design process, the minimum energy consumption is calculated and fire safety is ensured. When creating the Anti-Ice system, it is recommended to use only certified self-heating elements that do not support combustion. In addition, the system is equipped with an overtemperature shutdown device or a differential circuit breaker to automatically shut down the system when power loss is detected. If the system is too large, it is divided into smaller sections. This makes it easier to manage her work.

Important:

for a multi-pitched roof, the Anti-Ice system will be designed by specialists of our company on an individual order.

Price: 4500 rubles.

Package "Anti-ice"

Your comfort and safety in winter

Price 4 500 rubles.

Package "Lightning protection"

Often, developers do not attach much importance to protecting their own houses from lightning: someone saves, someone thinks, someone hopes for "maybe". But 3-4 years after the construction of the house, many people remember about lightning protection. All household appliances burned down at a neighbor's roofing felts, or statistics about how many fires happen due to lightning a year caught my eye.

We propose to resolve the issue immediately: to provide protection already at the design stage of the house. It is worth thinking about this at least for purely aesthetic reasons - there will be no need to once again hollow out the walls of the house and pull the down conductor along the facade, violating the well-thought-out appearance of the building.

Home lightning protection is a system of devices located both outside the home and indoors. External lightning protection prevents lightning from entering the house, internal - protects the electrical network from sudden voltage surges. And special devices protect electrical engineering from sudden changes in the electromagnetic field within the radius of a lightning strike.

The package "Lightning protection" includes

plan-scheme of the location of lightning rods that take on direct lightning strikes
cross-sectional diagram of a current collector that diverts current from the lightning rod to ground
ground loop circuit that distributes lightning energy in the soil, ensuring complete safety
averaged resistance calculations
detailed list of required materials
recommendations for project implementation.

The package "Lightning protection" from the company Dom4M guarantees you the safety of your home even in the most severe thunderstorm.

Package "Lightning protection"

Lightning protection: think about safety in advance

Price 3 100 rubles.

Package "Central vacuum cleaner"

"Central vacuum cleaner" is a kind of aspiration system(removal of small particles by sucking them in with an air stream).

The system consists of:

vacuum cleaner(installed in the technical room);
duct system, along which the dust-air mass moves (more often hidden installation is carried out in the preparation of the floor or in the space behind the false ceiling);
pneumosockets and pneumosows(a flexible hose with a telescopic rod and a nozzle is connected to the former, as in a conventional vacuum cleaner, the latter are intended for express cleaning, usually in the kitchen).

Pros:

removable dusty no air gets in back into the room, and is “thrown out” after the unit to the street;
No noise in clean rooms.
Ease of cleaning without "pulling" the vacuum cleaner from room to room, without the use of extension cords.
Concealed installation system, there is nothing in the room except a pneumo-socket.

Project price: from 3100 rubles.

Package "Central vacuum cleaner"

"An integral part of a modern home is comfort, cleanliness and fresh air"

Project price: from 3,100 rubles.

Package "Comfortable home"

Explanatory dictionaries claim that comfort is a set of household amenities, without which life is unthinkable.
modern man in a modern house. Most of these amenities are laid down at the design stage. But we are ready to expand their list and help clients make their own housing as comfortable as possible.
