Wooden Cottage 75 m² with Bathroom, Kitchen and 2 Rooms

A wooden cottage can be an excellent option for temporary housing while renovation is underway. It can later be used as a guest house or rented out. This project was realized by Tatiana Krygina near Yekaterinburg. We tell you what and how they did it.LOCATION: YekaterinburgSQUARE: 75 sq. mFLOORS: 2ROOMS: 2DESIGN: Tatiana KryginaPHOTOS: Alentina Gromova

Layout

This project was found online after long attempts to find a ready-made house. Its area was doubled by expanding the space under the roof.

High ceilings were created in the bedroom and sauna, and the bathroom was moved from the bedroom to the boiler room.

Due to the transitional balcony above the kitchen and old-style windows, more light entered the house.

Finishing

The sloped roof was adjusted to the trusses and insulated with false timber. Walls and partitions were made from logs, brick, and gypsum board.

Installed VEKA laminate windows and wooden doors, laid wooden planks on the floor, and installed a wooden staircase.

Furniture

Most of the furniture is vintage – repainted and refined. Retro boards and custom-made forged elements were built into the shelves.

Rope elements in the lighting fixtures emphasize the aesthetic of mirrors. Furniture items were restored and decorated by Tatiana herself, and paintings on the walls were painted by her son.
