Projects of one-story houses in Poland. History of Polish private housing construction and characteristic features of Polish houses

  • 29.08.2021

Polish cottage projects have a number of characteristic features for which they are chosen for the construction of buildings all over the world. This:

Low number of storeys. As a rule, there are 1 or 2 floors, while Polish house designs with an attic are not uncommon. But such houses are practically not planned with a garage, which is partly due to the small area of ​​the plot, and partly, according to the Poles, to the non-primary importance of this functional element.

Small area. Usually it does not exceed 120-150 sq. m. However, Polish-style house designs can hardly be called cramped, which is facilitated by the special

Layout. The center of such a house is a spacious living room, in which a work area with a computer desk and bookshelves can be organized at the same time. Quite large (in relation to total area) they also make a kitchen - 12-15 m. But the bedrooms are compact and maximally functional, designed for a family with 2-3 children. A special feature is 2 bathrooms, on each floor (if there are 2).

Already from the above we can conclude that the main concept is efficiency. At the same time, you will probably be surprised to see a cottage project in the photo - the Polish version! - with a winter garden, sauna, garage. The fact is that Shop-project presents projects from Polish bureaus, adapted to the conditions of our country and the requirements of most customers, including the inclusion of popular functional elements.

Thus, Polish projects one-story houses and two-story buildings, without a garage or with a garage, do not demonstrate actual “dry” savings, but rather a rational distribution of resources. This is reflected both in construction and in operation. For example, modern Polish houses are focused on the European building materials market and provide excellent thermal insulation, which in turn allows you to save on heating and air conditioning. Considering the jumps in tariffs and the appetites of payment processors, quality will probably not be out of place in Russia.

Besides finished projects, Shop-project offers individual design taking into account the parameters that are important to you.

Features of private Polish houses.

Before the collapse Russian Empire, which included Poland (Rzeczpospolita), due to the significant stratification of property in Poland, 2-4 room apartments served as the basis for private development wooden houses ordinary people and the stone mansions of the aristocracy.

In the pre-war period (before World War II), with the growing prosperity of the Polish population and a reorientation towards Western (German) house-building standards, the most popular houses became stone plastered houses, in which toilets and bathrooms appeared.

After World War II in Poland, as a result of the active growth of the middle class, they became popular brick houses. They were usually built from large-format ceramic blocks and plastered inside and out. Houses of this period of construction had basement floors, half buried in the ground, where there were storage rooms, a garage and, often, a second or summer kitchen.

Features of Polish housing construction in the post-war period include the appearance of separate kitchens on different floors, which were organized with an eye to creating separate living areas for different generations of the family, which economic reasons socialist model could not separate from their parents and build own house. In addition, this layout made it possible to rent out part of the house to provide the family with additional income.

In the late 1980s, thanks to financial assistance from the USSR and the issuance of loans for the construction of houses, there was a boom in private housing construction. During this period, private Polish houses appeared, the features of which were not only traditional Polish practicality, but also the desire to impress neighbors. IN ground floors saunas and relaxation rooms began to appear in such houses. A distinctive feature of Polish houses of the socialist period remained simple “square-nested” layouts, in order to minimize the cost of building a foundation.

After breaking the socialist impasse, the welfare of Poles began to grow rapidly, which allowed many families to finally build their own residential buildings or get a second home for a seasonal holiday.

Modern Polish houses are no longer boxy, tasteless houses built to save money on the foundation, but beautiful buildings complex configuration. As a rule, these are spacious one or two-story houses. In such houses there are large entrance halls, spacious living rooms, bathrooms with corner baths.

Polish houses are mainly built from large-format ceramic blocks, aerated concrete or expanded clay concrete blocks.

At the same time, in Poland there is often a strange desire to reinforce aerated concrete masonry with a reinforced concrete frame, which is not required by construction technology low-rise buildings from aerated concrete.

In the same way, Polish builders try to reinforce brick walls with reinforced concrete frames, as if the houses they build are being built on mountain slopes or in earthquake-prone areas.

The walls of Polish houses are plastered - the cheap vinyl siding popular in Russia is not to the taste of modern Poles. You rarely see unreliable corrugated cellulose-bitumen roofing sheets on roofs - in Poland they prefer metal tiles, cement-sand or natural tiles.

The layered rafter system is almost universally used, which makes it possible to effectively use the space of the attic floor due to the absence of tie rods.

By the way, even poor Poles who do not have enough money to purchase local treatment facilities do not use the “septic tanks made of concrete rings” that are widespread in Russia due to total environmental illiteracy, which contaminate the soil and groundwater feces, and purchase monolithic reinforced concrete containers for constructing cesspools.

Construction of houses in Poland is a profitable business - there are houses built for sale everywhere.

The facades and roofs of houses based on Polish designs are distinguished by their complex configuration, which makes the house “interesting” to the eye of the observer.

Polish house designs are practical and aesthetically pleasing appearance, far removed from the “shoebox” and “transformer booth” houses of the era of developed socialism, which for some reason are still popular in Russia.

The most attractively decorated roadside restaurants in Poland are taverns, built in the “historical style” in the form wooden houses with reed roofs.

By the way, the food in Polish taverns is inexpensive and very tasty).

Polish-style houses, distinguished by their originality and practicality, are quite popular among developers, including in 2018.

Ancient Polish houses were characterized by the use of exclusively natural materials; the roof had a complex structure with bull's-eye dormers and was covered with tiles. Columns were usually installed at the entrance. The facade was painted in light colors and decorated with stone and wood. The additional color was matched to the color of the roof.

The listed characteristics largely correspond to architectural projects private houses presented in this section of our catalog.

Plans for Polish house projects: what clients choose

However, a lot has changed since then, and polish style also acquired modern architectural features. Now Poles prefer to buy houses in a European modern, laconic style, characterized by restraint and simplicity.

  • house with large windows or panoramic glazing, which provides good natural light premises.

Also in great demand among developers is the layout of Polish house projects with 2 bathrooms and at least three bedrooms.

Differences between modern Polish houses and traditional ones

Since the Poles are not used to luxury when it comes to housing, they limit themselves to economical construction solutions. Therefore, the modern design of Polish houses has the following individual differences:

  • Instead of natural roofing materials, materials imitating tiles are used;
  • Elements imitating stone and wood are used to decorate the exterior;
  • The additional color of the façade design is matched to the color of the roof;
  • Complex details are omitted from the roof structure: balconies, bay windows, etc.;
  • Columns are missing.

Most often, the house design does not include a built-in garage. The layout of the interior of such a house is ergonomic and functional.
