Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a building, and more particularly to a building in which a bathroom vanity unit is installed. [Background technology]
[0002] It is already well known that a vanity installation space is provided in a building. For example, in a house (building) described in Patent Document 1, a vanity (vanity) is installed inside a dressing room (dressing space). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2023-037903 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0004] However, in the building described in Patent Document 1, when a resident of the building wants to use the washstand, the resident needs to go through the corridor to the dressing room. In addition, in the building described in Patent Document 1, the washbasin is installed inside the changing room, and when residents use the washbasin, they may be affected by the heat, humidity, etc. of the changing room.
[0005] The present invention has been made in consideration of the above circumstances, and has an object to solve the above-mentioned problems. Specifically, the present invention has an object to provide a building with a better environment for installing a washstand. [Means for solving the problem]
[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the building of the present invention is characterized by having a corridor extending from the entrance, a bathroom adjacent to the corridor separated by a wall, a dressing space adjacent to the bathroom, and a vanity space connected to the corridor and separated from the dressing space, in which a vanity unit is installed.
[0007] In the building of the present invention configured as described above, the vanity space in which the washbasin is installed is arranged to be continuous with the corridor, so that the distance from each of the multiple spaces in the building to the vanity space is short, allowing residents in the building to easily move to the vanity space. Furthermore, in the building of the present invention configured as described above, the vanity space in which the vanity is installed is installed away from the bathroom and changing space, so that the vanity space is less susceptible to the effects of heat, humidity, etc. from the bathroom and changing space, and residents can use the vanity properly without being affected by the temperature, humidity, etc. of the bathroom and changing space. As a result, a building can be provided that provides a better environment for installing a bathroom vanity.
[0008] In addition, the building of the present invention has a first space for a living room and a second space for a dining room that is continuous with the first space, and a first partition wall separating the first space is adjacent to the corridor, and a second partition wall separating the second space is positioned closer to a third partition wall separating both the first and second spaces on the opposite side of the corridor than the first partition wall, and the table installation space is adjacent to the second space across the second partition wall. In the building of the present invention configured as described above, by moving the second partition wall closer to the third partition wall, the vanity installation space can be secured adjacent to the corridor, resulting in a better installation environment for the vanity.
[0009] In addition, in the building of the present invention, a door is provided on the wall separating the entrance, which extends in a cross direction that crosses the extension direction of the corridor horizontally, and an opposing wall is positioned opposite the door and extends in the cross direction. In the building of the present invention configured as described above, the facing wall can prevent the inside of the building from being seen from the outside through the entrance door, thereby improving the shielding effect of the building from the outside to the inside.
[0010] In addition, in the building of the present invention, the platform installation space may be located at a position farther from the entrance in the extension direction than the opposing wall. In the building of the present invention configured as described above, the vanity installation space is located further away from the entrance, thereby preventing the vanity being used in the vanity installation space from being seen from outside the building through the entrance door.
[0011] In addition, in the building of the present invention, it is preferable that the wall that separates the bathroom and faces the outdoors does not have a window. In the building of the present invention configured as described above, the platform installation space is located away from the bathroom and the undressing space, so that even if the bathroom does not have a window and heat and moisture accumulate in the bathroom and the undressing space, causing the temperature and humidity to rise, the platform installation space can more effectively be protected from the effects of heat, moisture, etc. from the bathroom and the undressing space. As a result, a building can be provided with an improved environment for installing a bathroom vanity.
[0012] In addition, in the building of the present invention, the platform installation space may be located on the opposite side of the corridor from the bathroom and changing room. In the building of the present invention configured as described above, the vanity installation space is located further away from the bathroom and the dressing space, so that the vanity installation space is less affected by the bathroom and the dressing space. As a result, the installation environment of the vanity can be improved.
[0013] The building of the present invention may also be used as a residence. In the building of the present invention configured as described above, people can live in it as a home with a better environment for installing the bathroom vanity. Effect of the Invention
[0014] According to the present invention, a building can be provided that provides a better environment for installing a bathroom vanity unit. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0018] In order to make the explanation easier to understand, the drawings are simplified and schematic, and illustrations of furniture and other equipment and devices within the rooms are omitted. In the following description, people who reside in the building 10 will be referred to as residents. In the following description, the direction in which the corridor 2 extends in the building 10 is referred to as the extension direction, and the direction perpendicular to (intersecting with) the extension direction in the horizontal direction is referred to as the intersecting direction.
[0019] The building 10 according to this embodiment is a residence, and residents live in the building 10 and spend their daily lives there. In this embodiment, a case in which four people live in the building 10 as residents will be described. 1 and 3, the building 10 is two stories tall, but may be a structure having two or more floors, or a single-story building with one story. The building 10 is constructed in a location relatively close to neighboring houses or a road, such as in a residential area, and the distances from the entrance 1, bathroom 4, and toilet 11 to places where people other than the residents are present are relatively short. 1, in the building 10, the girder direction (extension direction) which is the longitudinal direction of the building 10 is aligned approximately parallel to the east-west direction, and the beam direction (crossing direction) which is the lateral direction of the building 10 is aligned approximately parallel to the north-south direction. However, the above directions are examples of the girder direction (extension direction) and the beam direction (crossing direction) in the building 10 of the present invention, and are not limited to the above directions.
[0020] [First floor layout of the building according to this embodiment] The layout of the first floor of a building 10 according to this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 1, the first floor of a building 10 has the following spaces: an entrance 1, a corridor 2, a family closet 3, a bathroom 4, a dressing space 5, a space for installing a table 6, a living room 7, a dining room 8, a kitchen 9, and a toilet 11. As shown in FIG. 1, these spaces are separated by doors A, walls B, windows C, etc., and form respective rooms. Note that each space may be continuous without being separated by doors A, walls B, windows C, etc. Furthermore, walls B include a first partition wall B1, a second partition wall B2, a third partition wall B3, and an opposing wall B4. The layout of the first floor of building 10 and each of the spaces and rooms on the first floor of building 10 will be described below.
[0021] (entrance) As shown in Fig. 1, the entrance 1 is located on the northwest side of the building 10, and is a space adjacent to and continuing from the corridor 2 in the north-south direction. In this embodiment, the entrance 1 is partitioned by an opposing wall B4 in the east-west direction and is adjacent to the family closet 3. The entrance 1 may be provided with a dirt floor storage area. As shown in Fig. 1, door A is placed on wall B that extends in the north-south direction and faces the outdoors among walls B that divide entrance 1. Also, as shown in Fig. 1, wall B that extends in the north-south direction at a position opposite door A among walls B that divide entrance 1 is an opposite wall B4 that blocks the inside of building 10 from being seen from outside.
[0022] With this configuration, the entrance 1 is located close to the family closet 3, making it easy for residents to take clothes out of the family closet 3 before going out and to store the clothes in the family closet 3 when they return home.
[0023] (corridor) As shown in Fig. 1, the corridor 2 extends in an extension direction (east-west direction) from the entrance 1 near the center of the north-south direction within the building 10. As shown in Fig. 1, the corridor 2 is adjacent to each of the rooms or spaces, such as the entrance 1, family closet 3, bathroom 4, dressing space 5, table installation space 6, living room 7 (corresponding to the first space), dining room 8 (corresponding to the second space), kitchen 9, and toilet 11, via wall B, or is adjacent to and continuous with each other.
[0024] (Family Closet) As shown in FIG. 1, the family closet 3 is a space located on the north side of the corridor 2, adjacent to the entrance 1 on the east-west side of the entrance 1. As shown in FIG. 1, there is no door A between the family closet 3 and the hallway 2, and the family closet 3 is continuous with the hallway 2.
[0025] (bathroom) As shown in FIG. 1, bathroom 4 is a space located on the north side of corridor 2, adjacent to family closet 3 on the east side of family closet 3 in that direction. As shown in FIG. 1, the bathroom 4 is separated from the corridor 2 and the family closet 3 by a wall B, and is separated from the dressing space 5 by a door A. Therefore, the resident enters and exits the bathroom 4 from the dressing space 5. As shown in FIG. 1, in the bathroom 4, of the walls B that separate the bathroom 4, the wall B facing the outdoors does not have a window C for privacy reasons.
[0026] (space for undressing) The dressing space 5 is a space where the resident puts on and takes off clothes before and after using the bathroom 4, and is also used as a space for arranging a washing machine and a dryer. As shown in FIG. 1, the changing room 5 is located on the north side of the corridor 2, adjacent to the bathroom 4 on the east side of the bathroom 4 in the east-west direction, and is located at the farthest back (east side) of the rooms on the first floor. As shown in FIG. 1, the changing room 5 is separated from the corridor 2 by a door A to allow access thereto. As shown in FIG. 1, the changing space 5 is located closer to the family closet 3 than other rooms in the building 10, so that residents can easily carry and store clothes that have been washed and dried in the washing machine and dryer to the family closet 3.
[0027] (stand installation space) The vanity installation space 6 is a space in which a vanity table D is installed, as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 1, the table installation space 6 is continuous with the corridor 2 and separated from the undressing space 5, and is adjacent to the dining room 8 in the north-south direction across the second partition wall B2. As shown in FIG. 1, the platform installation space 6 is provided in the corridor 2 at a position farther east from the entrance 1 than the opposing wall B4, and is preferably positioned in a position continuous with the central part of the corridor 2 in the east-west direction.
[0028] (living) As shown in FIG. 1, living room 7 is a room located adjacent to corridor 2 on the south side and toward the west side on the first floor, and occupies a relatively large space. As shown in Fig. 1, the living room 7 is separated from the corridor 2 by a door A and a first partition wall B1. As shown in Fig. 1, a staircase 12 connecting the first floor and the second floor is located at the western end of the living room 7.
[0029] As shown in Figure 1, the living room 7 is connected to the dining room 8, and the kitchen 9 is located on the east side of the dining room 8, so that the living room 7, dining room 8, and kitchen 9 form one large shared space. As shown in Fig. 1, the shared space including the living room 7, dining room 8, and kitchen 9 is divided on the south side by a third partition wall B3 facing the outdoors, and on the north side by a first partition wall B1 and a second partition wall B2. In other words, the third partition wall B3 constitutes the south-facing outer wall of the building 10, extends from one end of the building 10 in the east-west direction (beam direction) to the other end, and separates both the living room 7 and the dining room 8 on the opposite side of the corridor 2. Also, in the shared space, a single window C that is larger than a typical window is arranged on the third partition wall B3.
[0030] (dining) As shown in Figure 1, the dining room 8 is a space located on the south side of the corridor 2, with a table installation space 6 between the corridor 2 and the dining room 8, and is adjacent to the living room 7 on the east side of the living room 7. As shown in FIG. 1, the dining room 8 is separated from the corridor 2 and the table installation space 6 by a second partition wall B2.
[0031] 1, the second partition wall B2 is offset southward from the first partition wall B1, in other words, disposed closer to the third partition wall B3 than the first partition wall B1. That is, in this embodiment, the second partition wall B2 is disposed at a position shifted toward the third partition wall B3 side compared to the case where the second partition wall B2 is on an extension line of the first partition wall B1 and disposed at the same position as the first partition wall B1 in the north-south direction. As a result, a recessed space is formed on the third partition wall B3 side at a position adjacent to the second partition wall B2 on the corridor 2 side, and this space is used as the table installation space 6. On the other hand, the space of the dining room 8 is reduced by the amount of the above-mentioned space formed. In other words, in this embodiment, a part of the space of the dining room 8 is allocated to provide the table installation space 6.
[0032] (kitchen) As shown in Figure 1, the kitchen 9 is a space located on the south side of the corridor 2, adjacent to the east side of the dining room 8, and is located at the farthest back (east side) of all the rooms on the first floor. As shown in FIG. 1, the kitchen 9 is adjacent to the hallway 2 and separated from the hallway 2 by a door A to allow access therethrough.
[0033] (toilet) As shown in FIG. 1, toilet 11 is located on the west side of corridor 2, adjacent to it, and is the frontmost (western) room on the first floor, and is separated from corridor 2 by door A to allow access. As shown in FIG. 1, in the toilet 11, among the walls B that separate the toilet 11, the wall B that faces the outdoors does not have a window C.
[0034] The layout of the second floor of the building 10 according to this embodiment is not particularly limited, but as an example, the layout shown in Fig. 3 may be used. On the second floor of the building 10, the family closet 3, the toilet 11, and the telework space 14 are located relatively close to the doors A of the respective bedrooms 13.
[0035] [Effectiveness of the building according to this embodiment] The effectiveness of the building 10 according to this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.
[0036] In the building 100 according to the comparative example, there was a case where the floor plan was as shown in FIG. However, in the building 100 of the comparative example shown in FIG. 2, when a resident wants to use the bathroom vanity D, the resident needs to move through the corridor 2 to the undressing space 5. In the building 100 of the comparative example, the vanity unit D is installed inside the undressing space 5 as shown in Fig. 2. Therefore, when a resident uses the vanity unit D, the resident may be affected by the temperature, humidity, etc. of the undressing space 5, and may not be able to properly apply makeup, style hair, etc.
[0037] In contrast, as shown in Figure 1, the building 10 of this embodiment has a corridor 2 extending from an entrance 1, a bathroom 4 and a changing space 5 adjacent to the corridor 2, and a vanity space 6 that is continuous with the corridor 2 and separated from the changing space 5, and in which a vanity unit D is installed.
[0038] In the building 10 of this embodiment configured as described above, the vanity space 6 in which the vanity D is installed is arranged continuous with the corridor 2, so that the vanity D can be more easily accessed from each room on the first floor compared to the building 100 of the comparative example. Furthermore, in the building 10 according to this embodiment configured as described above, the vanity space 6 in which the vanity unit D is installed is located away from the bathroom 4 and the undressing space 5. This allows the resident to prevent the temperature, humidity, etc. of the vanity space 6 from rising due to the influence of the temperature, humidity, etc. from the bathroom 4 and the undressing space 5. This allows the resident to appropriately use the vanity space 6 for applying makeup, styling hair, etc., without being influenced by the temperature, humidity, etc. of the bathroom 4 and the undressing space 5.
[0039] As a result, it is possible to provide a building 10 that provides a good installation environment for the vanity unit D. The installation environment refers to the environment of the unit installation space 6 in which the vanity unit D is installed, specifically, the temperature and humidity of the unit installation space 6, its location within the building 10, and its relationship to the surrounding rooms.
[0040] Furthermore, in the building 10 of this embodiment, the second partition wall B2 is positioned closer to the third partition wall B3 than the first partition wall B1, as shown in Figure 1, and the platform installation space 6 is located on the opposite side of the corridor 2 from the bathroom 4 and the undressing space 5, and is adjacent to the dining room 8 across the second partition wall B2. In this way, by bringing the second partition wall B2 closer to the third partition wall B3, the vanity installation space 6 in which the vanity unit D is installed can be secured in a position adjacent to the corridor 2, compared to a case in which the second partition wall B2 is not disposed in a position closer to the third partition wall B3. As a result, the installation environment for the vanity unit D can be improved.
[0041] In the building 10 according to this embodiment, as shown in Fig. 1, the western wall B of the walls B that separate the entrance 1 is provided with a door A, and an opposing wall B4 is provided on the eastern side. As shown in Fig. 1, the platform installation space 6 is provided at a position farther eastward from the entrance 1 than the opposing wall B4 in the east-west direction.
[0042] This makes it possible for the opposing wall B4 to prevent the inside of the building 10, such as the platform installation space 6, from being seen from outside the building 10 through the door A of the entrance 1. As a result, it is possible to improve the shielding ability of the building 10 from the outside to the inside, and it is possible to ensure privacy for residents in the platform installation space 6 even when the building 10 is located near a neighboring house and a road. This also allows the platform installation space 6 to be positioned closer to the center of the first floor of the building 10, making it easier for residents in the building 10 to move to the platform installation space 6. As a result, the installation environment for the washstand D can be improved.
[0043] For example, a resident can easily go to the vanity space 6 when getting ready at the vanity D and heading to the entrance 1 before going out, when moving from the entrance 1 upon returning home and washing their hands at the vanity D, when selecting clothes in the family closet 3 and then checking the selected clothes at the vanity D, when applying makeup and styling their hair at the vanity D after taking a bath in the bathroom 4, and when brushing their teeth after eating in the living room 7 or dining room, etc.
[0044] 1, in the building 10 according to this embodiment, among the walls B that separate the bathroom 4, the wall B that faces the outdoors does not have a window C. Therefore, even if heat and moisture are trapped in the bathroom 4 and the undressing space 5 and the temperature and humidity rise, the platform installation space 6 can more effectively exhibit the effect of being less susceptible to the effects of the temperature, humidity, etc. from the bathroom 4 and the undressing space 5.
[0045] In addition, since the strength of the entire building 10 can be secured, the area in which windows C can be installed can be increased on the walls B other than the bathroom 4, and a window C with a larger area than a typical window can be installed on the third partition wall B3 in the common space. As a result, more sunlight can be taken in from the south side. Furthermore, there is no window C in wall B of bathroom 4, and bathroom 4 is isolated from the outside of building 10, ensuring the independence of bathroom 4. As a result, even if building 10 is located near neighboring houses and a road, privacy can be ensured when residents are in bathroom 4. Furthermore, this allows the resident to save the trouble of cleaning the window C, which easily gets dirty, when cleaning the bathroom 4.
[0046] <<Modifications of the present invention>> In the building 10 of the embodiment described above, the platform installation space 6 is arranged in accordance with the arrangement position and the arrangement relationship with the surroundings shown in Fig. 1. However, the layout of the building of the present invention may be modified as follows.
[0047] For example, as a first variant of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 4, a building 10A in which the platform installation space 6 is located closer to the entrance 1 in the direction in which the corridor 2 extends, and to the north of the dining room 8 in the corridor 2, is conceivable. In the building 10A, the platform installation space 6 can be located more centrally within the entire first floor of the building 10A, and can be located further away from the undressing space 5.
[0048] Also, for example, as a second modified example of the present invention, a building 10B in which the platform installation space 6 is arranged within the dining room 8 as shown in FIG. In this case, after using the dining room 8, the resident can move directly to the vanity installation space 6 without passing through the corridor 2 or the like, and can use the vanity D.
[0049] Also, for example, as a third modified example of the present invention, a building 10C may be considered in which the table-installing space 6 is disposed adjacent to the opposing wall B4 on the opposite side of the entrance 1 (the east side of the entrance 1) with the opposing wall B4 in between, as shown in Fig. 6. In this configuration, even if the table-installing space 6 in which the washstand D is installed is disposed close to the entrance 1, the opposing wall B4 separates (separates) the table-installing space 6 from the entrance 1, so that privacy can be reliably ensured when the resident is in the table-installing space 6. In the building 10C shown in Fig. 6, the platform installation space 6 is disposed on the north side of the corridor 2 in a position continuous with the corridor 2. In addition, on the north side of the platform installation space 6, the family closet 3 is disposed adjacent to the platform installation space 6.
[0050] Furthermore, for example, as a fourth modified example of the present invention, a building in which window C is provided inside bathroom 4 may be considered. Also, for example, as a fifth modified example of the present invention, a building may be considered in which a plurality of table installation spaces 6 are arranged. In this case, at least one of the plurality of table installation spaces 6 is required to be separated from the bathroom 4 and the undressing space 5 and connected to the corridor 2. Furthermore, the building of the present invention is not limited to a detached house as in the above-described embodiment, but may be, for example, each dwelling unit of an apartment building.
