A designer option for renovating a double living room
Double living rooms are common in Montreal homes, especially in the Rosemont and Plateau Mont-Royal neighborhoods, where people often work. This article offers an interior design idea to optimize these double living rooms during your renovations.
A custom-made vestibule for a double living room
Is your home lacking storage space, especially near the entrance? Adding a vestibule is a clever and aesthetic solution. This is what we did in a Rosemont home: we transformed part of the double living room to create a custom vestibule, providing the family with an entrance that’s both functional and organized.
An optimized layout for simplified daily life
We optimized the space in the double living room, often difficult to organize, by creating a dedicated vestibule. This transformation offers concrete benefits:
Storage and organization: No more clothes and shoes lying around! The new vestibule provides customized storage for each family member, with dedicated spaces for coats, bags, and shoes.
Increased cleanliness: By acting as a buffer zone, the vestibule keeps the house clean. It also provides an ideal space to dry the children’s wet clothes, preventing moisture from building up inside the house.
Comfort and functionality: For optimal comfort, it’s possible to install underfloor heating and electrical outlets for boot or mitten warmers. Perfect for the family.
A more harmonious and functional living room
The creation of the vestibule had an unexpected positive impact on the double living room. The slight reduction in its surface area helps to soften its elongated appearance, creating more balanced proportions. This change makes the living room layout much more flexible. The new wall, for example, allows the television to be positioned at an ideal distance, creating a more welcoming and easy-to-furnish living space.
More than just a room: a tailor-made solution
In some home configurations, a vestibule can even be accessed directly from the garage, making it a perfect buffer zone to block cold air before it invades the entire house. This type of renovation project demonstrates that interior design has no limits. Our approach is to reinvent the layout based on your unique needs, your lifestyle and the specific characteristics of your home to create solutions that reflect you.
