Privatus gyvenamasis 2021 Nr. 77

English:

This garden cottage, surrounded by greenery, was built in 1970 on a small plot on the outskirts of Vilnius. The garden cottage renovation involves the rearrangement of inner spaces and the change of facade aesthetics. Previously tight rooms on the ground floor were connected into one common space, an upgraded staircase, now comfortable to use, leads to the rearranged attic. The finish of inner walls and ceiling was changed, the existing wood plank floors were repainted with abrasion resistant paint. The kitchen, dining room furniture and small benches were purchased new. The existing sofa, owner‘s bed and outdoor furniture complemented the whole. The finish of the facades and the rhythm of the windows was changed, the existing terrace was enlarged. The pergola, located further away from the windows, does not interfere with enjoyment of the sunlight inside the cottage. These changes made the garden cottage more spacious and comfortable.
