Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the arrangement of a store room for residential buildings comprising stacked apartments, according to the preamble to Claim 1 .
  • the apartment In an apartment block housing a large number of apartments, a stacked arrangement of single-storey apartments is expedient.
  • the apartment can be of twin-storey construction in the living area and, above all, in an outside region of a balcony.
  • Such a construction lends itself in the first place, of course, to new buildings in wholly built-up areas. It is also conceivable, however, for residential concepts of this type also to be used for barn conversions or industrial buildings, in which it is a question of leaving the outer building contour where it is for simplified building permission.
  • Patent EP 1455033B1 an apartment block comprising stacked apartments is presented.
  • the apartment block presented in this patent consists of a large number of apartments. The entire living area of each apartment is on one level.
  • Each apartment respectively comprises a normal-height living part and a double-height living part.
  • the normal-height living part of a lower apartment is disposed beneath the normal-height living part of the above-situated apartment.
  • the floor of the double-height living part of the lower apartment is thus located on the same level as the floor of the normal-height living part.
  • the internal wall of the double-height living part of the lower apartment is simultaneously a wall of the normal-height living part of the upper apartment. In the concept of Patent EP 1455033B1, this wall is provided without an opening, since such an opening would mutually disturb the private sphere of the two apartments.
  • a drawback in the arrangement presented by EP 1455033B1 is the lost space in that part of the living room which is of double-height configuration and is facing away from the outer façade. Whilst the double-height ceiling in the outside region serves for good light infiltration and a sense of roominess, in the double-height part of the living room a volume is formed of which no use is made in terms of light infiltration. The sense of roominess, however, can already be achieved with a high ceiling having less than double the height of the living room.
  • the present invention now sets out, by reducing the ceiling height in the double-height living area, to form a store room for the apartment located above this living area, without the light infiltration and living comfort of the living room of the lower apartment being substantially affected.
  • FIG. 1 shows a section through an apartment
  • FIG. 2 shows a section through an apartment with store room
  • FIG. 3 shows a perspective representation of two apartments situated one above the other.
  • EP 1455033B1 describes a living area 10 , a double-height living room 11 and a double-height external room 12 ( FIG. 1 ).
  • the apartments In order to be able to realize such concepts, the apartments must be stacked in a manner similar to that described in Patent EP 1455033B1.
  • An advantage of this arrangement is, for example, the light infiltration represented in FIG. 1 , which allows daylight to infiltrate far inside the apartment, whilst the sense of roominess is also given by the high rooms of the apartment.
  • the large shadows 17 , 18 and 19 are present in the upper parts of the living area 10 , high living room 11 and external room 12 ( FIG. 1 ).
  • the result of this arrangement is that, in the shadow region 18 of the living room 11 of the lower apartment 1 ( FIG. 1 ), a relatively large volume which is not reached by the light infiltration is formed. This does little to help produce an improved sense of roominess.
  • the partition wall 30 which is disposed between the external room 12 and the living room 11 and is normally made of glass, is expense to buy and difficult to keep clean.
  • apartment of this type are sought, above all, in urban areas, since they allow a considerably improve sense of roominess, even though the edifice is situated in a densely built-up area. From a cost aspect, such apartments are in the medium category of the ranges available. They are often sold on a freehold basis. Such apartments are bought by people who do not wish to manage and care for a one-family dwelling but who neither are willing to relinquish the comforts of a spacious dwelling. It is immediately clear that, in such an apartment, though residents live comfortably at relatively low cost, there is very little storage space available for all those objects which they would prefer not to have in the living room, but would nevertheless like within rapid access. The cellar is an unsuitable place of storage for these utensils.
  • the high living room is a very representative and pleasant conference room.
  • a small-sized firm or a small branch of a large company sufficient office space is present to offer a workplace to two to three employees.
  • a rapidly accessible archive room is very important.
  • the volume in the shade 18 is filled by a store room 23 , which is accessible either by means of stairs or a ladder from the living room 18 ′ of the apartment 1 ′, or else only from the living area 20 of the above-situated apartment 2 .
  • the ceiling of the high living room 11 ′ is no longer of the same height as that of the external room 12 , an elevated room height, and thus the sense of roominess, is nevertheless maintained.
  • the light infiltration is not thereby curtailed, but the shadow region 18 ′ of the living room 11 ′ is smaller and the volume is put to better use.
  • the adopted ratios of the ceiling heights of the individual rooms in relation to the living area 10 or 10 ′ of the lower apartment 1 or 1 ′ are intended to be at the value 1. Depending on the situation and the regulations, this height will generally range between 2.4 m and 3.0 m. In historic buildings, the façades of which must be preserved for townscape or monument preservation reasons, the ceiling heights can most definitely, however, be greater or smaller.
  • the external room 12 will have 1.5 to 2.5 times the height. Normally, it will probably rise to roughly double the height of the living area 10 .
  • the high living room 11 ′ will have 1.1 to 1.5 times the height.
  • the store room 23 lies above the living room 11 ′. In order to give the latter the desired ceiling elevation, the store room 23 must have less ceiling height. It will only reach 0.7 to 0.9 times the ceiling height of the living area 10 . For a room which is normally built without window opening and is used as a store and storage room, however, this will be of minor importance.
