There are several criteria for determining the bearing wall:
- Wall that separates neighboring apartments from each other
- Outdoor Wall
- Wall in contact with the staircase
In addition, the bearing walls differ from the other more thick.
No zoning
Zoning is a special reception in the design of interiors, which allows you to separate one room into several different zones. This reception is required with such a layout option.
To split the room into several functional zones is simple enough. The most common way is to use partitions. They are performed from various materials, starting wood, and ending with wood or glass.
Violation of sanitary norms
It is important to remember about the hygienic standards applicable to the rooms. The kitchen room is a room in the apartment that becomes dirty much faster than others. This is due to its frequent attendance and regular operation, because the food is constantly being prepared, because of which pairs are distinguished and everything is stuck around.
In order to avoid problems with cleaning, it is necessary to select the right finishing materials that allow them to quickly purify them. It is recommended to choose a kitchen apron of glass material.

Organization "wet" zone in the living room

When the wet zone is transferred to the residential part of the house, it turns out to be over the same room of neighbors from the bottom floor, which is strictly prohibited.
Lack of lighting
The presence of one ceiling luminaire does not guarantee sufficient lighting. In most cases it will not be enough. You should take care of the multi-level lighting system, providing not only light bulbs on the ceiling, but also lamps, table lamps and other lighting.
