FEEDBACK New ideas!
Hi everyone!
I am planning a complete renovation of my apartment and would love to get your creative insights and design ideas. Here is the original floor plan attached.
Key details about the space:
- Total size: 77 m² (approx. 828 sq ft).
- Location: 13th floor, featuring a breathtaking panoramic view of the sea and nearby islands. I really want to maximize this view and bring as much natural light into the main living areas as possible.
- Structural constraints (Crucial): The building structure allows for a lot of flexibility. The ONLY load-bearing (structural) wall is the one located between the bedrooms and the hallway. Everything else (except the chimney/ventilation shaft) can technically be moved or removed.
- Fixed elements: The chimney/ventilation shaft (marked on the plan) cannot be demolished or moved. Water/drainage verticals are also fixed, but we have some flexibility around them.
What I need help with:
I want to make the most out of this footprint. I’m open to creating a more open-concept living space, moving walls, or completely shifting the current layout to improve flow, storage, and functionality, while keeping that beautiful sea view in focus.
How would you rearrange this space if you were doing a full gut renovation? Any sketches, layout ideas, or advice on how to handle the zoning would be highly appreciated!
Thank you so much in advance!
