Let's first find out what the entresol means?

Literally, the word means the upper half floor of the building, which for some is a way to fully utilize the space of a house with high ceilings, and for a creative person, an opportunity to create an original, cozy and comfortable environment.

Today, making a entresol is becoming more and more popular. It becomes an integral part of modern design. A modern type of mezzanine is an additional horizontal space under the ceiling, at a certain height, which divides the room and allows a functional zone to be arranged on the second level.

A entresol can be made both in a private house and in a multi-story house. The main thing is that the ceiling is high enough.

Through the entresol, you can divide even a small apartment into different functional zones. For example: place the living room, bathroom and kitchen on the first floor, and dedicate the upper floor to the bedroom and wardrobe. Such distribution of space allows to clearly divide the apartment into individual and public zones and leaves you more personal space.

Those who want to make a entresol should take into account certain nuances, for example: the height of the ceiling in the building in which you plan to make a entresol should be at least 4.5 m. In addition, the entresol floor should be at least 2.5 m away from the floor. Finally, the entresol room can occupy only 40% of the building.
