What should I do if the master bedroom door faces the entrance door? What can I do if the master bedroom door faces the entrance door?

We all know that the master bedroom is an important place in the home. It is usually the largest bedroom and the main place for rest. Many people will spend a lot of energy and thought on decorating the master bedroom. The layout of each house is different. In some houses, the master bedroom will face the entrance door. So what should we do if the master bedroom door faces the entrance door? Let's take a closer look!

What should I do if the master bedroom door faces the entrance door?

Option 1: Change the location of the entrance door

This solution is not difficult to transform, and it is completely practical from the floor plan. Move the master bedroom door to the right, and move the second bedroom door to the bedroom, just to the same level as the large wardrobe. In this way, the second bedroom's internal usable space does not change, and the master bedroom's internal space does not change, but there is an extra corridor, and the original straight corridor becomes an L-shaped corridor, and the master bedroom door is easily transformed.

The original master bedroom door position after the renovation can be designed as the corridor end wall, so that the end view is very beautiful when entering the house, and at the same time it enhances the effect of the corridor space. One thing to note about this plan is that the renovated master bedroom will face the side panel of the wardrobe after entering the house, so the side panel of the wardrobe should be designed as a decorative wall, so that the overall renovation plan becomes perfect.

Option 2: Entrance hall

Judging from the dimensions of the floor plan, the shoe cabinet on the left side of the entrance door is about 1.2 meters long, so such an entrance space can be used to create an entrance hall.

The entrance hall is presented in the form of semi-transparent or lower cabinet upper partition. It cannot be a full wall partition, because it will make the entrance hall not have enough lighting. The semi-transparent entrance hall partition can not only play the role of the entrance hall blocking the entrance door and the main bedroom door, but also does not affect the lighting effect of the entrance. The most important thing is to let the new house have a porch, which has a great decorative effect. It is worth noting that this entrance hall must be fixed after all the furniture is moved in, because the distance of 1.2 meters is no problem for walking, but it is not enough for moving large furniture, so it must be fixed at the end.

Option 3: Place a fish tank at home

If you want to put a fish tank at home, then placing a ready-made fish tank in front of the entrance door is a very good location. It not only serves as a decoration, but also acts as a barrier.

One thing to note about this plan is that the height of the fish tank cannot be too high. 1.5m is recommended, and 1.2m-1.3m is the best height. In addition, a screen tank must be used to serve as a decoration and barrier.

How to improve the master bedroom door to the entrance door

1. "Tampering" in the entry area

1. Set up partitions for improvement

⑴Precautions for setting partitions

If the size of the entrance area allows, you can set up a partition to improve the relative position between the main bedroom door and the entrance door. Although the style, location, and size of the partition will vary depending on the size of the entrance area, family type, family functional requirements, and personal preferences, I think there are two "common" points to note when setting them up:

① The width of the partition. When the entrance door and the master bedroom door are completely opposite, I think the width of the partition should be able to completely "block" the entrance door; when the entrance door and the master bedroom door are partially opposite, the width of the partition should at least be able to block the "overlapping" part.

② The distance between the partition and the entrance door. The distance between the partition and the entrance door should be between 1.2 and 1.5 meters. If it is too close to the entrance door, it will easily create a sense of oppression, and if it is too far away, it will waste some space.

⑵Partition style

There are many styles of partitions. The "broken but transparent" hollow partitions separate the space while retaining the "connection" of the two spaces; the storage partitions can meet the functional needs and achieve the purpose of separation, "one thing for multiple uses"; the wooden partitions have the "artistic conception" of Chinese style, the "straightforwardness" of modern style, the leisure and comfort of American country style... Sometimes they exist not only as a "partition"; the "separated but not broken" characteristics of the glass partitions with better transparency can separate the space, increase the sense of hierarchy, and will not make the partitions visually "shrink"... Choose according to the area of ​​the entrance area, functional needs, personal preferences, and the spatial effects you want to create. Finding a partition suitable for use in the home is more important for the entrance area. For example, if the partition is close to the entrance door and the area of ​​the entrance area is small, you can choose Changhong glass partitions, which can have a certain degree of shielding effect and a better sense of transparency to alleviate the cramped and oppressive feeling. The partition is combined with the setting of the shoe cabinet. When the color of the shoe cabinet and the partition is the same or similar, the entrance area will have a good "sense of integrity" and neat!

2. Set up a lobby for improvement

If the area of ​​the entrance area allows, you can "build" a foyer in the entrance area, which will become a "staying area" when entering the house, enrich the functional areas of the home, and make the family's space layout more "full". The distance between the foyer and the furniture leading to the "exit" of the home needs to be at least one person can pass freely (I think about 600-1000mm is more appropriate). If the distance is too small, it will not only hinder people from passing through, but also increase the sense of oppression in the family. The "construction" of the foyer can use walls, partitions, or walls + partitions... There are many ways to choose according to the space area, functional requirements, and personal preferences. Adding a shoe cabinet + shoe bench to the foyer gives the foyer more "connotation" and makes the foyer more layered.

2. Use invisible doors

There are two types of apartment types where the bedroom door faces the entrance door: the home has a corridor and the bedroom door is at the "end" of the corridor; the bedroom door is in the living room or dining room area. Depending on the apartment type, I think the "existence" of the invisible door will be different.

1. The bedroom door is at the "end" of the corridor. I think the invisible door can be designed at both the corridor "entrance" and the bedroom door.

⑴Invisible door at the corridor "entrance"

Adding a door at the "entrance" of the corridor can "perfectly" separate the active area (public areas with more activities such as living rooms and dining rooms) and the quiet area (more private areas such as bedrooms and study rooms) of the family space, which is suitable for both movement and quietness. However, this method will "reduce" the family space to a certain extent, and it will also create a cramped feeling when the "active area" is small. I think there are roughly two ways to set up invisible doors:

① Combine practical cabinet settings. Set up storage cabinets of the same style on both sides of the corridor "entrance" wall (the two sides of the wall are basically on the same horizontal line), set up doors with the same material and style as the storage cabinet at the corridor "entrance", "hide" the door, and make the storage cabinet and door "one", which will give the family space a good overall sense and increase the family's storage space. It will be a good way for families with storage needs.

When designing the door and cabinet as one, the thickness of the cabinet or the size and placement of the furniture should be selected according to the area of ​​the living room and dining room. For example, when the storage cabinet in the living room is also used as a TV wall, the most appropriate distance between the human eye and the TV is 3.5 times the size of the TV; the same size of the dining table and the cabinet "vertically" placed requires a smaller area than "parallel" placement, so when the dining room area is small, in addition to considering reducing the size of the dining table, you can also consider changing the placement of the dining table.

Placing the dining table and cabinet “vertically connected” will save more space and will be more suitable for smaller restaurants!

Small extension cabinet thickness reference: bookcase thickness is generally around 400mm; wardrobe thickness is generally around 550-600mm; home display cabinet thickness is generally around 300-500mm...

② Combine with decoration techniques. When the living and dining areas are small and not suitable for cabinets, the doors can be designed as a whole with the walls on both sides, or made of the same material, or in the same shape, or as a continuation of a certain shape... Use decoration techniques to make the doors "invisible", so that the space is regular and neat, and also more "complete" in decoration!

⑵The invisible door is at the "end" of the corridor

"Make some changes" to the master bedroom door. The "minimalist mode" door should be designed as an "integrated" with the same material or shape as the corridor wall or the wall where the door is located, making the bedroom door an "invisible door" and reducing its presence.

2. The bedroom door is in the living room or dining room area, so the bedroom door is designed to be an invisible door

The bedroom door is in the living room or dining room area. The "minimalist mode" door is designed as an "integrated" wall, using the same material and shape, etc., to "hide" the door, reduce the "prominence" of the main bedroom door when entering the house, and the space also has a good overall sense...

3. “Moving” bedroom door

In my opinion, "moving" the master bedroom door is the most "thorough" way of improvement. Due to the differences in functional requirements, house types, wall dismantling and modification, living habits, personal preferences, etc. in each family, the "moving" position of the master bedroom door will also be different. For example, the master bedroom door can be "blocked", the wall between the study and the bedroom can be completely demolished or part of the wall needed to set up the bookcase can be retained, the study and the master bedroom become the "same space", and the study door becomes the master bedroom door, thereby achieving the effect that the entrance door is not opposite to the master bedroom door.

Alternatively, you can "lengthen" the corridor and move the door to the "side" of the master bedroom, with the entrance door facing the wall, which can also avoid the entrance door facing the master bedroom door.

Other suggestions for the main bedroom door to the entrance door

The best solution is to buy a fish tank with a cabinet and place it in the middle of the table and living room, which can play the role of partition, storage, feng shui, and wealth gathering. Kill two birds with one stone!

You can consider making a porch cabinet or buying a ready-made one to act as a partition. If you want to save trouble, you can also buy some beautiful bead curtains and place them in the room as long as they can block the middle. This will visually weaken the problem and be beautiful and fashionable.

You can add a porch at the entrance to serve as a shield. If you consider lighting, you can use a glass curtain wall. But adding a porch will destroy the entire layout, which is not very good.

In addition, the master bedroom dressing room can also be adjusted and the door can be changed to open to the south, but it will affect the usage rate, so it is not recommended to change it.
