One of the benefits of the contemporary interior is its ability to utilize light and space like never before. We have a tendency to hoard things in our closets and drawers, but the same could be said for the way we use rooms on a regular basis. Our homes can be small or huge, depending on how we use it and what kind of lifestyle we want to lead.
In a more spacious and open home, we often have a lot of space to fill in and use. This can be good or bad depending on how you use those space. The problem is when you have a home that is too small for the kind of lifestyle you want to lead. It’s hard to find space to put things in and it can be quite messy to use them. This means that we can end up wasting a good chunk of space that could be used for other things.
When we think of space, we often think of a square room. To a human, a square room is a good size. But to a computer, it might be way too small. How are you going to use that space? So let’s start by looking at some space that is too big.
There’s no way of telling how much space you have in a square room, so let’s take a look at just how big a square room is. In a small room, you have enough space to fit a table and a chair. But there’s more room in a square room because you can put a sofa. But in a square room, that means you have to fit a kitchen sink. So now you have a square room with a kitchen sink.
This brings us to the next point. If you have a small room, you can get creative with how you use it to your advantage. You can have an island within a square room that has a small living room and some storage space. Or you can have an island that is completely separated from the rest of the room, so that it has no room to stand on.
Although the concept of a separate island within a square room is a pretty clever idea, it’s not something we can do in every room. Our friend, our house is a square room with a kitchen sink, so we just have to figure out a way to make a kitchen island that doesn’t interfere with the rest of the room. One solution is to have an island that is a bit larger than the rest of the room, but still pretty small.
The island also has to be so small that it is easy to slide off and never come back. In theory, a room that looks as small as our kitchen should work, but in practice, it can be a bit tricky. As a matter of fact, we are still designing the island and the rest of the room to just be as large as they can possibly be, but to stay completely separated from the rest of the room. Like a small city or village, but with a different structure.
We plan on having a number of different rooms within the island. One of them will be a large main room, where we can set up various games, set up shops, and have a game room. We want to have a second kitchen, a dining room, a living room, and a third bathroom. The third bathroom is probably the most challenging, since it’s completely out of the way.
In the next couple weeks we will be building a third bathroom.
We’re big fans of a lot of the smaller islands in the ocean, but since our island is big and we want to create a different feel, we wanted to make sure it was big enough and open enough that it could accommodate any number of different rooms.
