In recent years, more and more foreigners have come to China to settle, live and study. The protagonist of this case is the foreigner Xiao Gao.
Xiao Gao from the United States fell in love with a Beijing girl in 2012, and then followed her love to Beijing to get married and settle down. But life after marriage is not as comfortable as he imagined, at least in terms of living conditions.
The family of five was crowded in 45 square meters.
After Xiao Gao came to China, he had no house or car, so he naturally lived in his mother-in-law's house, 45 square meters, and got 3 people. But with the birth of two cute little dolls, the family was obviously crowded.
aisle:
There are lockers, refrigerators, and debris in the small-high home aisle. There is only one side space left in one aisle, and only by the side can you pass through.
second bedroom:
There is no living room at home, the second bedroom always acts as a living room facing south, and there is no sofa on the bed to sit on.
Time bedroom was filled with all kinds of debris, leaving only a 50cm aisle. Considering that the young people have high requirements for living environment, the mother-in-law took the initiative to let the master bedroom come out, and set up a bed in the corridor to sleep with her two granddaughters.
This bed is only 90 cm wide, and the child is not honest in sleeping, and always occupies most of the position. The mother-in-law can only sleep in mid-air with her body on her side. The whole environment makes the mother-in-law both physically and mentally exhausted and almost depressed.
Master bedroom:
Mr. Gao and his wife’s room is on the north side of the house, and the house is also full of miscellaneous items. "If I wanted to find a piece of clothing, I might have to wait six months," Xiao Gao said jokingly.
Because the family has a large population and a small balcony, many clothes are hung in the master bedroom, and it is like sleeping in clothes every day.
Bathroom:
Toilet is a squat pit, the facilities are outdated, which has always been inconvenient for the elderly.
There is no pre-buried groundwater pipe at home, and the washing machine can only pull the drain pipe to the side of the squat. However, you cannot go to the toilet when washing clothes, and you cannot go to the toilet. If you have diarrhea and wash clothes again, it will be really painful.
Kitchen:
The kitchen area is only 4 square meters, and the small space is full of debris. Surprisingly, this is a small workspace where Xiao Gao studies, prepares lessons and does exercises every day.
Learning area:
In order to learn from the siblings, they are arranged to study in different rooms, and there is no unnecessary study at home, so the younger brother can only lie cross-legged on the bed to study. After sitting for a long time, his legs will become numb, and bent down for a long time is not good for the child.
After decoration
Open kitchen + living room:
removes the wall between the kitchen and the bathroom to create an open kitchen and living room space, which makes it much more visually spacious. Additional cabinet provides ample storage space.
Children's room:
times bedrooms have been built into the bedrooms of children and mother-in-law. It has good lighting and the design of independent spaces on the upper and lower bunks, which can allow children to have better growth space. The lower bunk is the activity area and the wardrobe.
My mother-in-law slept on the sofa bed opposite. Although it was not big, it was an exclusive space and she no longer had to squeeze with her granddaughters.
bathroom:
The modified bathroom has been installed with a toilet, which is convenient for daily life.
Master bedroom:
was renovated and a large amount of storage space was added. The master bedroom not only designed a wardrobe that can reach the top of the wardrobe, but also designed a bedside table, which made Xiao Gao unable to find clothes and could only blame himself for his poor memory.
