Hi-tech style bathhouse inside and out: project and design

A high-tech bathhouse is a popular architectural and design solution for building steam rooms today, which is chosen by many Russian residents. This is a very modern, urban style, in which convenience, comfort and functionality are put at the forefront of the table, and minimal attention is given to decoration and decoration, since most of the accessories used in decoration do not have any practical application, and therefore they are useless they can be easily abandoned.

Variations on a country theme

This style, like the previous one, is perfect for decorating a wooden bathhouse, suggesting the creation of a “rustic” interior, without any special frills or ceremonial pomp that would be inappropriate in this case.
In general, Russian style and country music are very similar. However, country music will bring the traditions of other countries into the interior of the bathhouse. Thus, designers highlight American and French country, which will be distinguished by the traditional colors of textiles and the use of individual interior elements.

French country is more sophisticated than American country, which is considered one of the simplest. But the main features of this design direction are preserved regardless of the country of origin. So, the interior of a country-style bathhouse is:

  1. Wooden furniture, usually light colors, perhaps artificially aged and simply varnished. The furniture is decorated with light carvings and polished, making it look somewhat more elegant than in the Russian style.
  2. Bright dishes that will serve as a highlight of an otherwise very simple interior. Ceramics, blue-white or pale yellow plates, cups depicting rural landscapes, as well as dishes made of natural wood are appropriate.
  3. Natural fabrics - cotton and linen of variegated colors.
  4. Walls made of timber or logs.
  5. Mandatory beams on the ceiling.
  6. Ceramic tiles or boards on the floor.

Everything is simple and tasteful - this is the basic principle of country music. This option is more similar to the French “rustic” style than to the American one, which took a lot from the national traditions of Indian tribes

How modern style is formed

Of course, the basis for developing the design and appearance of most bathhouse buildings remains national traditions in construction in a particular area. Often, when creating a new original style for a bathhouse, designers have to take into account several determining factors:

  • Materials primarily used in a particular region or locality. For example, for a Russian or Finnish bath it will be a timber or a rounded log. For a modern loft-style bathhouse, most of the design will be filled with elements and details of urban buildings;
  • Traditions of space planning. A bathhouse built in a modern style cannot be cramped or uncomfortable. Even in small bathhouses, log cabins or houses, it is necessary to provide traditional premises, for example, for a Russian-style bathhouse, most of the building will need to be planned for a stove and a rest room with a dressing room of decent size, with furniture;
  • Features of the architecture of a building of a certain stylistic direction. For example, for a chalet-style bathhouse or buildings in Scandinavian design, high ceilings and complex multi-tiered ceilings are usually provided.

Of course, the advanced style of a certain direction is determined not only by the above; the smallest details make a huge contribution to the design and decoration of the bathhouse. For example, the shape and style of bath utensils, furniture, accessories for the steam room, design and decoration of walls and, of course, the organization of the washing process.

Bathhouse in Russian style

Many masters claim that if we ignore the variety of options and try to build a bathhouse box, as they say, “from the heart,” from available materials and using our own experience, then this is exactly what the Russian style will turn out to be. To style a bathhouse as a Russian traditional building, the easiest way is to use a log frame, to which you only need to add some modern bathhouse details.

Bath buildings in modern Russian style

Most designers who specialize in modern interpretations of traditional buildings argue that the Russian style is one of the simplest and most recognizable of all existing ones.

It is possible to list only some of the features that indicate the Russian bathhouse style, even in modern processing and interpretation:

The traditions of the Russian style suggested the location of the bathhouse next to a pond or well. Therefore, a Russian-style bathhouse building, even in a modern style, is usually complemented by a wooden path and stairs leading to open water.

Often, the structure of a Russian bathhouse in a modern interpretation can be decorated with elements of culture and design of epic or fairy-tale characters. For example, a modern bath building can be built from logs or beams of a special shape and profile.


Even built on a floating platform, the domed mini-bath can rightly be attributed to the Russian style with a modern twist.


Of course, a bathhouse in Russian design can be built from any materials, but the zest is added by finishing the walls with a block house and using logs to decorate the porch.

Interior decoration of a modern Russian bath

Most modern bath buildings are very similar in the way they decorate the walls, heating equipment and furniture. The similarity of the interiors is also a sign of a modern style, because, regardless of belonging to a particular trend, the simplicity and comfort of the room is, first of all, important to the owners of the bathhouse.

Typically, simple lining or profiled slats made of linden, cedar, ash or even Karelian pine are used for walls.


To make the interior more recognizable and at the same time modern, you can use small auxiliary furniture parts. For the Russian style, this can be everything that the bathhouse culture is rich in - samovars, carved furniture, bast shoes on the wall, birch brooms and a huge table in the rest room.

Bathhouse in Scandinavian style

Modern chalet-style bath complexes have many similarities with the architecture of country houses in Northern Europe. A Scandinavian-style bathhouse with a modern interpretation always looks practical, always in unity with nature, forest plantings, and against the backdrop of ponds.

Unlike a chalet born in the mountains, Scandinavian bathhouse design involves maximum naturalism. For example, to emphasize the stylishness of the bathhouse building, the designers used an unusual technique - the high roof of the bathhouse was covered with real grass.


Bathhouses in the Scandinavian style are replete with a huge amount of aged and stained wood.

Most of the buildings look a little dark, but such a decision is quite justified, since bathhouses are mainly built in the forest or shaded part of the site.

The interiors of Scandinavian-style baths differ from the usual Russian buildings by huge windows, preferably overlooking a pond or a picturesque landscape.

At the same time, the bathhouse itself may be smaller than a 2x2 m area, but the window in a modern window frame takes up 2/3 of the area of ​​the steam room wall.

Architectural solution

It is allowed to use any material, the main thing is that it does not give the impression of massiveness. Brick, which creates a clear geometric structure, is preferable to stone, and profiled timber is preferable to logs. Otherwise, almost complete freedom:

  • It’s better to have a squat building than a square one, but there can be any options, but complex shapes with rounded lines are excluded;
  • roofs are usually single- or gable, the simplest, covered with tiles;
  • an important requirement for the Scandinavian style is a large number of windows, at least small ones; there is almost always a frame or its imitation;
  • the advantage of such a project is the presence of a concrete or stone area around the building; if the bathhouse is built on a columnar foundation, this feature is emphasized;
  • the color schemes are natural; the natural colors of wood or brick look perfect.

Interior design

Scandinavian style assumes naturalness. There is no need to specially process materials or select objects to create the desired impression. It is enough to make a couple of accents against the background of clean white walls.

  • for finishing the floor, walls, and ceiling, they always choose light wood; it is better not to paint it, but this option is also allowed;
  • you can plaster the walls and ceiling, lay the floor from gray light porcelain stoneware, creating a light, uniform background;
  • the steam room itself is decorated normally, but it can be separated from the dressing room by a glass wall;
  • colored towels, a bright blanket on the bench, decorative painted brooms - a typical design of the Scandinavian style;
  • you need good lighting: chandeliers and wall lamps come into play.

Disadvantages of houses with a pitched roof

Until recently, a pitched roof in temperate and cold regions was only applicable for outbuildings on which one did not want to spend additional time removing snow. Such buildings include: baths, garages, sheds. Flat roofing was rarely used in residential projects.


Exterior of a country cottage with a canopy

A fashionable novelty, positioned as an option without disadvantages, can pose a problem for the future owner of the house due to its unusual design:

  1. In such projects there is no attic space, which plays the role of a traditional storage room and provides additional heat.
  2. The absence of an attic forces additional waterproofing of the roof, and indispensable enhanced insulation of the roof.


Flat roof waterproofing diagram

In winter, without cables to melt the snow, you have to carry out snow removal. During warming, wet snow increases the load on the supporting system, and in large quantities can even lead to its collapse. Fans of pompous styles consider low decorativeness to be a disadvantage, but with skillful design this can be easily leveled out.


Flat roof design and waterproofing options

A building of any type and style may exhibit significant shortcomings in operation, causing everyday inconvenience in the cold or rainy season. Therefore, you need to take your home design seriously and take into account all the components.

What to consider when choosing a drawing

When choosing a drawing, you should always take into account the base and roof. The construction of a building with a pitched roof requires constant consideration of weather conditions.


Layout of three floors of a building with a garage

When choosing a base, the type of soil and the nature of the surface are taken into account; when choosing a roof, the wind rose is taken into account, especially if the house is built in an open area. The roof must be adapted to the climate and reliably protect from natural influences.


If a building with a fashionable type of roof is being built in order to save money and follow modern trends, then the design drawing should be chosen as the most reliable option. The proposed project examines the main communications, waterproofing of the building, as well as the ability of the house to guarantee long-term operation.

High-tech architecture - what is it?

Initially, a term such as “high tech” began to be used to characterize houses built in the mid-sixties of the last century. And only a small group of architects who already at that time had authority in the construction world.

Projects of those years personified the romance of dynamically developing technologies. In the second half of the twentieth century, there was a sharp leap in the development of technology not only in the field of construction. New solutions were required that would combine ergonomics, manufacturability, and efficiency. In fact, it was this style direction that became a platform for experiments not only in architecture, but also in construction itself, where modern technologies were willingly introduced.

In fact, the era of the birth of this style began with the appearance of such grandiose projects of that day as the Eiffel Tower and Paxton's Crystal Palace. The projects of Ehan Wilhelm Schweder and Charles Rowe de Flera did not go unnoticed.


Paxton's Crystal Palace is an interesting architectural solution. It's a shame it burned out

This architectural style came to Russia almost a hundred years after its origin in Europe. Leaders in this field Loleit A.F., Shukhov V.G., S. Kerbedzi, Kuznetsov D. and others are the first who were not afraid to use new materials, architectural forms and engineering solutions when implementing their projects. Although, it is worth recognizing that in Russia at that time it was not easy with the development of innovations in construction.


Tower in Polibino, one of the projects of Shukhov V.G. (1896)

Later, the “high-tech relay” was supported by information technology, led by Bill Gates. His views on modernity became the impetus for the creation of the Pompidou Center in Paris.


Center Pompedu in Paris

Probably, it was since the 70s of the last century that we can consider that high-tech has firmly “settled” in society. Moreover, the masses began to become interested in its extraordinary characteristics, trying to implement them in their everyday lives.

Each plane has its own finishing coating

Traditionally, a bathhouse has three rooms - a steam room, a washing room, and a relaxation room. In each room it is necessary to definitely finish the walls, floor and ceiling.

The steam room welcomes ceramic or wood flooring. The advantage of such floors is their naturalness and roughness. True, for the floor you will have to select wood that does not slip and does not rot. Therefore, oak and birch are immediately crossed out.

Decorating the inside of a bathhouse with clapboards with your own hands has an analogue option - covering the walls with standard boards. As for the ceiling, it must be hemmed.

The washing room allows the use of lining and boards for wall cladding. But the floors and ceiling can be organized using porcelain tiles and a suspended ceiling, respectively. If the latter hits your pocket, then you can limit yourself to plasterboard sheets.

The rest room does not have any special requirements for decoration (although the walls, floors and ceiling should continue the general idea of ​​a wooden bathhouse).

Features of interior decoration in High-Tech houses

Terraces and verandas

When creating the design of buildings or loggias adjacent to the house, preference is given to free space. For this reason, terrace finishing usually includes:

  • wooden, concrete or stone flooring;
  • vegetation - small trees or shrubs;
  • furniture for relaxation - sun loungers, poufs, dining tables, etc.

On the terraces and verandas of High-Tech houses, many elements are not used, so the zones look spacious. The interior is supplemented with lighting - lamps are installed on stairs, canopies, to illuminate plants, and so on.

Living rooms

Since the design focuses on practicality and ergonomics, living rooms are often combined with kitchens. At the same time, the main part of the total area of ​​the house is allocated for premises. Decorating a house in high-tech style is based on the use of modern technologies:

  1. Room lighting. In rooms with a High-Tech design, ordinary chandeliers with incandescent lamps are rarely used. Lighting devices here are represented by neon or halogen lamps, LEDs, and so on. Lighting devices are often mounted in furniture.
  2. Arrangement of walls. Electronics and technical equipment are often mounted inside load-bearing structures. At the same time, the walls are almost always made with division into levels. Exterior panels help install electric fireplaces, appliances and lighting inside walls. This helps to achieve unique design solutions and a futuristic appearance of the premises.
  3. Furniture and interior. When arranging High-Tech premises, only modern materials are used. Furniture made of plastic, environmentally friendly materials, nickel-plated metals, and so on is installed in houses. There are almost no plants in the rooms, and paintings are rarely hung on the walls.
  4. Household appliances and electronics are almost always connected to a “smart home” system, which allows you to control the lights and all devices from a mobile phone or remote control.


Living room decoration in High-Tech style

Bathrooms

Bathrooms and bathrooms are decorated with tiles of predominantly white or dark tones. Additionally, they can use wood and elements of vegetation - mainly artificial grass - to dilute the interior. For expensive design solutions, it is typical to use natural stone. The style is dominated by straight lines, so sinks, toilets and bathtubs are installed in rectangular shapes.

Bedrooms

Here the design gives preference to soft color solutions. Often pastel colors are used for decoration - beige, blue, and so on. Beds with an original design become a unique component of the bedrooms. They are often made suspended or with a futuristic design.

Project of the best bathhouse: what is it?


There is no general recipe, because each developer has his own goal: some are satisfied with the construction of a small building with a minimum number of rooms, but for others, a bathhouse without a large terrace and swimming pool is a bad option. But some unifying features can be noted.

— Convenient layout that takes into account the interests of each family member. Perhaps for an elderly person, climbing the stairs to the second floor will be difficult, but the presence of a spacious terrace on which you can drink tea in the evening will please you. And if the family has small children, it is worth equipping a swimming pool, even the smallest one.

— Multifunctionality. Today, owners of even the smallest bathhouses strive to expand their usable area by adding terraces or attic floors. A two-story residential building with the functionality of a bathhouse is not uncommon in summer cottages. The best design for a modern bathhouse is ergonomic. For example, with an attic, which allows you to develop the “upper” space.

— High-quality building material. A good structure cannot be built from bad wood. Be picky about the material that construction companies offer you and remember that you should only trust someone who has already justified this trust and has been working in the construction services market for many years.

— Aesthetic appeal of the building. A good project will definitely include this component, and the bathhouse will fit perfectly into the landscape of your site.

Design for small apartments

When decorating a studio apartment, it can be helpful to follow high-tech design principles, as this style gives a small space the illusion of being much larger. You will find yourself in a small room that will not be cramped.

Option combining kitchen and living room

For a studio apartment

High-tech is suitable for small spaces. Clean, cool colors and a lack of additional furniture will help create the illusion of more space in the room.

The studio interior is characterized by freedom of space.

Tip: Don't be afraid to use this style in small apartments. An abundance of glass objects and light colors can make even the smallest studio apartment feel more spacious.

For children's rooms

High-tech style is a very practical design choice not only for spacious rooms, but also for small ones. It involves combining basic furniture with light color schemes.

Small, stylized children's room

For the bathroom

A high-tech bathroom is unable to combine comfort and romance in Provence, Country or Modern style. But at the same time, it will contain all the functional components needed in the bathroom. All normal daily activities should be made easier and more natural.

Option for a small bathroom in this style

For kitchen

A bar counter would be ideal in a small high-tech kitchen, as well as a compact glass or extendable table that can be adjusted depending on whether it needs to seat 6 people or 2. Chairs can be made from:

  • bent plywood;
  • wood;
  • metal;
  • plastic;
  • transparent polycarbonate.

The main criteria for choosing furniture for a small high-tech kitchen are minimal design, versatility and elegance.

Space-saving option for a small kitchen

High-tech interior design will help visually expand a room, thanks to bold, solid colors and the absence of unnecessary furniture.

Interior items

High-tech interior design usually does not require additional decorative elements, since a large amount of light is usually refracted by chrome and glossy surfaces and reflected in mirrors.

Tip However, if you intend to add a sense of personality to your interior, you need to use the right decorative elements.

Try to use as few decorative items as possible

The walls can be decorated with large photographic portraits in metal frames. Black and white photographs would be appropriate. Interesting metal figurines, as well as decorative glass objects will also match the design.

The advantage of mobile baths

  • Compactness.

The dimensions of the bathhouses cannot exceed the permissible dimensions of cargo for road transportation. The standard width of bath walls is 2.3 meters. The roof width is 2.5 meters. The total height of the bath is 2.45 meters in the standard version, and can be additionally increased to 3.0 meters. The length of the bath ranges from 2 to 9 meters. This makes it possible to make different layout options. The bathhouse turns out to be compact and will fit even in the smallest summer cottage.

  • Fast construction.

The bathhouse will be delivered on time by a manipulator or truck crane. You can flood the bathhouse after 20 minutes of preparatory work and after only 1.5 hours you can steam in a brand new bathhouse. If you don’t want the noise of chainsaws on your site, various construction debris, or difficulties in communicating with the crew, your choice is a turnkey mobile sauna.

  • Low cost.

Prices for standard mobile baths vary on average from 105,000 rubles to 250,000 rubles, which compares favorably with stationary baths in terms of cost. Savings can range from 150,000 rubles or more, depending on the size. But as you know, the flight of fancy is not limited; the cost of an individual turnkey mobile sauna can reach up to 400,000 rubles - 600,000 rubles.

The price of mobile baths includes:

  • steam room combined with washing room.
  • bake.
  • electrician
  • finishing.
  • foundation.
  • bath furniture.
  • and more (in the specification)

Ready-made bathhouse on a frame basis 2.3x7 meters

Finishing materials for the bathroom relaxation room

A relaxation room in a bathhouse is no less significant than a steam room. On average, a person going for a steam bath spends more time here than in the steam room. This fact may explain the requirement for a scrupulous choice of facing material for its cladding.

When choosing the most suitable options, one should take into account their properties and the possibility of use in conditions of high humidity and sudden temperature changes in both directions. Despite the fact that the relaxation room may be located at some distance from the steam room, it will not be possible to block access to hot air currents and their contact with the walls cannot be excluded.

A similar situation applies to the street door - periodic exits “to cool off” will attract cool air. As a result of mixing warm and cold flows, cold steam is formed, which will settle on the walls.

As a result of this interaction, of the variety of finishing materials, the following types are suitable for use in a recreation room.

Wooden euro-lining, block house (imitation log) - made from solid linden, aspen, pine. Excellent material in terms of operational and decorative qualities. Marked by high environmental safety for humans. The disadvantage is the need for periodic treatment with an antiseptic. Otherwise, there is a high probability of the onset of rotting processes or the formation of fungus due to high humidity.

Wooden decorative panels for the ceiling of a recreation room - large-sized panels allow you to quickly and efficiently hide all surface imperfections. Installation is carried out on pre-insulated bases. They look impressive and aesthetically pleasing. The disadvantages are the same as those of euro-lining - natural wood without proper care can quickly become unusable.

Parquet, cork, parquet boards for the floor in the rest room located in the bathhouse will be an ideal option in terms of decorative functions. The disadvantage of the materials is the likelihood of them becoming unusable due to the abundance of moisture (condensation, wet feet). Applicable subject to partial use. For example, a passage area (next to the door to the street, to the steam room) is covered with moisture-resistant material, a dead-end area (near the sofa, bench, armchair).

Natural or artificial stone for walls. The materials not only have a unique appearance, but are also highly practical. Decorated walls of a relaxation room retain an attractive appearance for a long time. Not prone to damage under the influence of high temperature and high humidity. The most commonly used stones are granite, cobblestone, sandstone, quartzite or marble. The disadvantage is the high price and significant weight.

The disadvantage of ceramics is low thermal conductivity Source www.3giraffa.ru

Porcelain tile is a strong, durable material that has a wide range of shades and textures, from imitation wood to a parody of natural stone. With its help, the design of a bath room can take on a wide variety of looks. Ideal for use in these conditions, the disadvantage is the cold (icy) surface, which is unhealthy to walk on barefoot.

Plastic panels (PVC, vinyl, acrylic) are an inexpensive type of facing material compared to natural wood. It differs in operational and aesthetic indicators, varying depending on the specific type.

GKL as an alternative to partial finishing of the rest roomSource wwbratsk.ru

Drywall, wallpaper and paint are the simplest and most financially acceptable materials. The only thing you need to consider when choosing them is that they are short-lived in conditions of high humidity. As mentioned earlier, if your recreation room is equipped with a constant source of heating and good air circulation, it is possible to use them. Otherwise, it is not recommended.

Unconventional ideas

Some connoisseurs of unusual design admire the “goblin” style – and for good reason. The walls and ceiling in this version are usually finished with unedged linden boards. Chopped half-logs from linden are placed on the shelves. Other types of wood are not suitable for this element! When thinking through a specific interior, it is necessary to ensure that it is visually complete.

In this version, bright and rich colors are used. Textiles should have a lush appearance. It is recommended to use specifically exotic design elements and unique furniture. An exemplary Turkish hammam is always decorated with mosaics.

Of course, such a solution is more expensive than traditional wood finishing. However, the appearance will be much more luxurious. Local elements of the oriental style (in a less radical form) are rich mosaics and exotic patterns on the tiles in the shower area and in the pool. Some people set up full-fledged hookah bars with bright curtains, squat tables and bright pillows. This solution is distinguished by external beauty, cheapness and originality at the same time.

When setting up a classic sauna, it would be more appropriate to use Scandinavian style. Its characteristic features are visual simplicity and emphasized external roughness. You can use not only wood, but also more technologically advanced materials. The Scandinavian format is suitable for both wooden and brick buildings. It is advisable to plaster and paint the walls in neutral colors.

Fans of truly exotic things should pay attention to the Ofuro bathhouse. The Japanese approach is expressed using:

  • large fans (they are simply hung on the wall);
  • bamboo screens;
  • natural shades;
  • tatami;
  • low tables;
  • thematic paintings, ornaments.

Features of houses in high-tech style

The architectural style is a harmonious combination of the external design of the building, selected finishing materials and interior decoration items. A high-tech house, despite its diversity, is easily recognizable by several details.

The idea is to demonstrate the equipment installed in the house, selecting other finishing elements to match its style and color scheme. High technologies: a “smart home” system, built-in household appliances, an abundance of lighting are the central element of the interior, which is only complemented by furniture and textiles.

The external architecture of such houses consists of regular shapes, mostly cubic. The priority of houses is functionality, which is why buildings often turn out to be asymmetrical, with an abundance of protruding elements. The roof can be partially glazed to increase the level of illumination (a technique known as “second light”) or equipped as a terrace. Large-scale functional elements of premises, such as elevators and stairs, are often located outside the building. Also, rooms are often represented by separate “cubes” connected to each other.

The materials for the construction of such houses are metal, concrete and glass, emphasizing the “futuristic” nature of the building. Interior and construction fashion involves the use of natural materials in the interior decoration of the home, which is why there are also high-tech wooden houses that combine traditional materials and high technology.

The decoration of the premises as a whole is carried out without intricate details and small decorative elements, therefore, on the interior design of the house, the “eye rests”, observing the open spaces and the abundance of natural and electric lighting.

The color scheme of houses is based on two or three main shades, complemented by bright, catchy decorative elements. The overall impression of the houses is somewhat “cold”, and to soften it, primary and auxiliary lighting is generously used, giving the rooms a cozy feel.

Neutral colors and plenty of lighting give the strict geometry a cozy feel. Source luxer-design.ru

The windows in such residential buildings are large, thin frames are used, and frameless glazing is also common. Often, photos of high-tech houses show fully glazed buildings, which gives the buildings an “airiness” and increases the level of illumination.

Features of a flat roof

First of all, it should be noted that a flat roof is just a name, because in fact the surface has a minimal slope. If the surface is completely flat, then it is necessary to slope it. A flat roof is a multi-layer structure that is shaped like a pie. To install the roof correctly, you need to select high-quality materials, observe time intervals and technologies.

Required layers of a flat roof:

  • Hard base. In most cases, concrete or reinforced concrete slabs are used for this, which must first be cleaned and leveled. After laying the base, it is filled with cement screed, which also covers chips, cracks and crevices. The next layers can be laid only after the solution has completely hardened.
  • Vapor barrier layer. A vapor barrier or film based on bitumen and modern polymers is laid on the screed. This layer is needed to protect the thermal insulation layer and guarantee its integrity. If this layer is skipped, the condensation coming from the house will destroy the thermal insulation layer. All seams of the layer must be sealed with glue or welding.
  • Thermal insulation. The period of operation of the roof depends on this layer, so special attention should be paid to insulation. Mineral wool is used as insulation, the advantages of which everyone knows. It is best to use a double insulation system.
  • Waterproofing. The material used is a material that can cope with mechanical loads. It must be sufficiently strong and elastic, while the waterproofing layer must be resistant to temperature changes and fireproof. For private houses, the use of PVC membranes is recommended, which were positively assessed by both professionals and owners of houses with a flat roof in the high-tech style.

High-tech style cottage houses: project features

High-tech house designs are distinguished by a laconic image, maximum functionality, ideal proportions, and a harmonious combination of space and light. When designing, constructing, and installing engineering systems, the most advanced innovative technologies are used, so such projects are very expensive to implement, but in the future they are quite economical to operate. Let us note the features characteristic of the exterior of a house in high-tech style:

large sizes, which imply both external freedom and internal space. In this case, the project should provide a minimum of internal partitions

In addition to the attractive appearance and expensive showiness, houses with a flat roof in the high-tech style have a number of advantages:

  • Speed ​​of construction and implementation of the roof. Creating a large house with a flat roof is now not so difficult and quite quick, and you can equip a flat roof much faster than a pitched or hipped one. The reason for this is the convenient horizontal surface of the roof, which is quite easy to carry out work on.
  • Easy to maintain. Due to the fact that the roof surface has a horizontal plane, there is no need to install a ladder. To repair the roof, it is not necessary to involve professionals or climbers, since all the necessary work on cleaning gutters or removing snow or leaves from the roof can be done independently.
  • Due to the flat surface, the homeowner receives additional space; if a usable roof is installed here, then a recreation area or winter garden can be built on its surface. Thus, you can not only save extra square meters on a plot of land, but also make the house more attractive and elegant.
  • A house with a flat roof is an ideal option for using technological equipment. You can install solar panels on the roof surface, from which you can make money; wind generators, air conditioners, heaters, and so on are also installed here.
