Design a recessed seating area in the living room in a minimalist style

Sitting areas for the living room that are embedded in the floor are very popular because they radiate a particularly cozy atmosphere. In order to design the living room lounge in this way, a platform is usually first built into which the respective seating area goes. The house we would like to introduce to you has such a lounge. However, that's not all it impresses with. Take a look at the following gallery and collect inspiration for a recessed seating area in the living room and other furnishing ideas.

The modern house is located in the Czech Republic and more precisely in Posázaví. It was designed by the company a69 Architektur in the middle of a forest landscape and near a pond. In order for the house to blend in with the natural surroundings, a façade made of weathered wood with a gray color was chosen. The house is a prototype.

The corner is made up of a large window front on the one hand and two walls on the otherwith built-in bookshelvessurrounded. You also get a view of the elegant kitchen and dining area. The lounge is equipped with gray upholstery and cushions, which not only guarantee comfort but also a pleasant look.

It also represents a contrast in the otherwise fairly monochrome furnishings of the house. This is designed in different shades of white. The open living area is visually divided into different areas, all of which are well lit thanks to large windows. The furnishings are simple and minimalist.

The dining area is located in the center of the house, so to speak, where the paths to the other areas cross. It is equipped with a modern stone dining table and white chairs. White walls and a cream-colored, shiny floor decorate the individual areas and at the same time create a pleasant atmosphere. From the dining area you get a view of the recessed corner and the kitchen.

The modern house was built on stones and very close to a pond. The environment was preserved during construction. This means that none of the existing trees have been cut down. It wasn't just the view of the lake that was guaranteed thanks to the elevated building. The meadow, which is located in the middle of the forest, can be reached quickly and easily from the house.

The roof of the house was flat and made of a solid supporting structure. The flat design offers the possibility of greenery, which was immediately implemented in this house. The gray wooden facade is combined with black window frames, which differ from the light interior interior.

The comfortable connection between the inside and outside of the house is not only achieved through this entrance door. There are also window fronts made of sliding doors and lead directly to the stairs that connect the raised house with the garden, or rather, the forest meadow and the terrace, from which you can perfectly enjoy the natural surroundings.

The house is the perfect option for everyone who doesn't want to miss out on nature and wants to enjoy it in seclusion. The large windows present in all public living spaces allow the owners to be close to nature even when they are inside the house.

The lake lies deep in the ground and is surrounded by rocks that also form the shore. The house is also located on one of these banks. Again, large windows guarantee a breathtaking view. The lake can be viewed from the comfortable, sunken seating area in the living room.

Here you can see the floor plan of the house again, as well as its location on the lake and on the property. Organic shapes characterize the interior of the house in the form of curved walls. In addition to the public living space, there are also private, separate rooms, including the bathroom and bedroom.
