For example, some municipalities set a minimum of 30 m&sup2; for a one-bedroom dwelling.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Minimum usable surface area for rooms.<\/strong> For instance, 8 m&sup2; may be accepted for a double bedroom.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Minimum linear dimensions of rooms<\/strong>, such as bedrooms requiring at least 2.20 meters per side, or minimum dimensions for parking spaces.<\/li><\/ul><p>While having minimum surface and size standards is important to prevent real estate malpractice and to alert designers that not everything is acceptable, problems arise when these minimums are assumed to be <em>sufficient<\/em>. In many cases, while legal, they are far from reasonable.<\/p><p>For example, a double bedroom measuring 8 m&sup2; (2.20 x 3.60 m) might be compliant, but where would you place a 1.35 x 2 m bed? If the headboard is against the 2.20 m wall, that leaves only 40 cm on either side; against the 3.60 m wall, there&rsquo;s only a 20 cm path at the foot&mdash;barely enough space for your legs.<\/p><p>Just as in hotels, we should soon eliminate the concept of a &ldquo;single bedroom&rdquo; in homes. A bedroom should always accommodate one or two people in a properly sized bed&mdash;at least 1.35 m wide by 2 m long.<\/p><p>I once stayed in a hotel in the idyllic Balearic Islands, where the room had a &ldquo;double bathroom,&rdquo; probably legal at the time it was built. But clearly, one of the two &ldquo;sardines&rdquo; inside had to step out in order to close the door.<\/p><p><strong>Bathrooms and bedrooms must always provide comfortable access and usability for two people.<\/strong><\/p><p>In short: meeting minimum standards for dimensions or surfaces is not enough&mdash;they must be <strong>reasonable<\/strong>. Not just for the present use, but also in anticipation of future needs. In the following sections, we apply this principle to the most common rooms in a home.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized img-zoom\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"998\" height=\"616\" src=\"https:\/\/ivinmo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-7.png\" alt=\"image\" class=\"wp-image-1149\" style=\"width:405px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ivinmo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-7.png 998w, https:\/\/ivinmo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-7-300x185.png 300w, https:\/\/ivinmo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-7-768x474.png 768w, https:\/\/ivinmo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-7-600x370.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 998px) 100vw, 998px\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Figure 7.
