The foyer bathroom and kitchen were shared, the LR was converted into a bedroom and each family used a bedroom for their living and sleeping. So a 2bd and one LR flat had three families living there. I think the foyer is just expected to be what you would find in an apratment. Definitely not open concept. The commenter on the foyer being helpful in the bad weather makes sense. In not sure if common hallways were heated so perhaps they help keep drafts from the hallway out to the bedrooms? In North America mud rooms were the rage a few years ago, a foyer does the same thing. It seems the rooms seem a bit larger? kmshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01791551228094642235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088226422072866788.post-48015687651245752952016-09-07T19:29:41.076-07:002016-09-07T19:29:41.076-07:00Wow so awesome design i appreciate your desing ser...Wow so awesome design i appreciate your desing service.

If you sit for a chat at the kitchen table you will not stare directly on the door who is entering/exiting the bathroom (the same reasoning goes for your bedroom too: You shouldn't be witnessing your loved one or anyone sleeping over at your place directly accessing the bathroom. It is neither dignified nor gives any pleasant views to stare directly on the bathroom door from the kitchen/bedroom). <br /><br /><br />You also have to take the weather into consideration - As the hall is a transitory space there is a wardrobe for winter clothing and space for winter jackets, umbrellas, leather boots, sneakers and everything else depending on the season. It is very rare with external storage space inside buildings (basements, attics) thus in many cases you need to store everything you have in your own apartment.<br /><br /><br />If anything you could perhaps discard the study room at the bottom of the plan, but I guess they don't want to expose the kitchen to direct sunlight (thumb rule: If your kitchen needs light from the outside, locate it if possible to the north in the Northern Hemisphere to avoid direct sun light. Sun light contributes to unnecessary heat in an already heated place (stove, oven) and hasten the time for groceries to turn sour. A kitchen is a workplace, not some fetish item, where people do work for 1-2hrs a day and hence should have optimal working conditions as you'd expect from a real workplace).<br /><br /><br />Regards,Karl Klingnoreply@blogger.com
