NEVER TOO SMALL Waterside Italian Two Bedroom Tiny Apartment - 35sqm/376sqft

Inspired by the tightly designed interiors of sailing boats, llabb architecture converted this 70’s open plan studio apartment into a two bedroom home without expanding its 35sqm footprint. By creating a multi-functional storage unit on the rear wall, llabb was able to compartmentalise the apartment and embed 2 concealed bedrooms stacked on top of each other; while a long wooden strip creates a distinct ‘waterline’ that leads the eye into the living space. Still maintaining a fully featured but compact kitchen, bathroom and dining space, Riviera Cabin contains everything needed for complete and complex living.

This is going into my inspiration folder. My husband and I are planning to sell our little townhouse and buy an empty section and each build our own home...the shells are going to be small and share a wall, we each will have only 40m2. I want to still be able to host my daughter and her boyfriend with me in mine but ensure privacy for night and fit mine and their large dogs...I was considering cupboard beds but I think a modified version of this, specifically customized to my needs would be perfect.

@RickyMcSpanish 3 года назад

100% this, plywood and general pine looks cheap and nasty

@gabriele7381 3 года назад

@Coni Glione of course, it's lighter and cheaper. The problem to me is when non laminated plywood coats the whole surface

@gabriele7381 3 года назад

@Coni Glione well it is nice to see different concepts, this one was inspired by the living spaces in boats. It makes me laugh when architects use unrefined plywood because they remind them of "japanese minimalism". Sometimes it is also important to respect the building and the context.

@Halbmond 3 года назад

Plywood is an amazing material but it always confuses me as well when they leave it naked. I’d always either paint it or veneer it. Naked, it might fit into an industrial interior style, but I think it looks bare and unappealing, and would look so much nicer with a pretty veneer - even in an industrial interior.

@kdvytdgui.ghuecysgupv 3 года назад

@Coni Glione If it's "marine" then I don't see how it could be non-laminated or at least have some coat of something. I guess that was the look they were going for. I personally only like it in theory, but in real life I don't like it. It reminds me of ferry lobby or an 70s camper (although I never stayed in one). I am glad this interior has other sources of "warmness"

@heatherchambers1609 3 года назад

A small summer house is perfect. It’s a place where family and friends choose to gather together. To laugh, drink wine, eat good food, share stories and enjoy the outdoors. This notion of smallness comes from years spent at my grandparents cottage (Canadian term for summer house) Small, intimate, house with a screened in veranda which spanned the width of the lakeside building. The veranda allowed for protected observation of rainstorms as well as the enjoyment of eating lunch and enjoying late afternoon apéros together.

Finally, a truly small space thoughtfully converted into a functional, calm but not sterile living space. With an actual storage potential and everyday functionality, without compromising the overall beautiful and understated esthetics. And all in, what it looks to be, an affordable manner (Ikea is not a dirty word after all). "Small spaces need to have their complexity", what a perfect final statement. Tells a lot about the conceptual integrity of the architect. Bravo!

@Zamek13 2 года назад

Exactly what I thought, I agree with Barbara, the second bedroom with open panels could work for me. But all in all I would prefer to have this as a one bedroom. I would tweak the design to have storage where the first bedroom is (lower ceiling) so the top bedroom could be more spacious, with the panels open (preferably screened to keep out mosquitos, a mosquito in a small and possibly hot space in summer would freak me out) that would be really nice :)

@lnfreeman 3 года назад

But if you're already in the nautical mindset it's totally acceptable. I was initially thinking I would find a claustrophobic, but the fact that the shallower room on top has those huge windows does a lot and then the larger room on the bottom is just like the sleeping cabin in a yacht. Which as a summer home for people who like sailing anyway makes sense.
