Important nuances

Zoning the space correctly

Ideally, a 25 sq m studio design should include several main areas: a kitchen, a work area, an entrance hall, a bedroom, and a sanitary area. Each of the zones must be separated from the other. This can be done in different ways..

Zoning with a glass partition

The most popular are discussed in more detail in the table:

Zoning method	Peculiarities
Partition	It can be built from glass, brick, drywall. The simplest option is drywall. The construction of such a structure does not require a special permit, high material and physical costs.
Furniture	It is better to zone a small space with open-type furniture. Pass-through shelving is ideal. It will separate zones, accommodate certain things, and will not take up much space..
Screen	A good way to separate the sleeping area at night. You can hide the screen during the day.
Finishing	You can separate the kitchen from the living room-bedroom by using different finishing materials and colors. It is better to use tiles in the kitchen, in the living part of the room – wallpaper, decorative plaster, paint.

The use of capital partitions does not always make the interior of a studio 25 squares attractive. Sometimes such designs are too burdensome for the space. Open plan is in vogue today. It allows you to make repairs with minimal costs, implement many original ideas, effectively use quadrature.

An open floor plan would be the perfect solution for a bachelor’s apartment

The privacy problem can be solved with a sliding partition

A significant drawback of an open plan is the almost complete lack of privacy. If several people live in a studio apartment, such a need will certainly appear. You can solve this problem by purchasing a mobile Japanese screen. It is inexpensive, easily fits in a large wardrobe, on the balcony.

The second tier is a rational solution in case of a lack of space

If the design of a studio apartment of 25 sq m is being developed for a young family with a child, you must definitely take care of the correct arrangement of the room for the baby. It is unlikely that it will be possible to carve out a place under normal conditions. In this case, the rational solution would be to build the second tier.

The advantages of this solution are obvious:

Expansion of usable area.
The ability to equip a separate room for the baby (this is necessary when the baby reaches the age of four).
Saving. For little money, you can get a two-room apartment. This is a great solution for a young family for the first time..
Originality of the interior – bunk studio apartments always look unusual.

Most often, the bedroom is set up upstairs.

However, the second tier has several disadvantages. For its construction, you need to make sure that the building is safe. It is not always possible to build a second tier. It also requires large material costs. But the costs are much lower than purchasing a full-fledged two-room apartment.
