The basement is often regarded as the standard floor in the villa, and almost all villa design will take this part into account.
Even some low-spec villas, such as townhouses or lower-end villas, will include basement design.
However, the living and living experience of a basement is much more than simply adding another layer of space.
The development trend of modern and future villas shows that the basement is no longer limited to the traditional storage space, but gradually towards the multifunctional direction of entry, hospitality, reception, entertainment, audio and video, fitness and so on.
Nowadays, most villa owners have direct access to their underground Spaces through underground parking garages.
Basement Spaces are usually quite spacious and versatile.
Some basements can accommodate pool tables, while others are designed as home theaters, kitchen areas, gyms, wine cellars or collectible Spaces to cater to the owners' different interests and bring a richer living experience.
Compared to the garden above ground, the basement space is more private.
Even if the party is held late at night, it will hardly cause any disturbance to the neighborhood, while also reducing the interference of the surrounding environment to the interior, so that people can enjoy themselves.
In addition, the modern basement is usually opened up with the first floor during decoration, forming a lift between the negative first floor and the first floor, thereby increasing the permeability and longitudinal extension of the space, retaining the open vision and sense of space of the villa, while taking into account the living function of the second floor.
The basement can also act as a barrier to moisture and moisture, making the first and second floors more dry and comfortable.
For some owners who have shelter and doomsday survival visions for their villas, basements are even more indispensable.
As long as the problems of lighting and ventilation are solved, the basement can be warm in winter and cool in summer, providing a comfortable shelter for the occupants.
However, villas without basement design often lose the core of the villa.
The design of these villas may be too old and the living experience is not comfortable enough.
Villas without basements usually do not have underground parking.
The owner's vehicle often can only park in the outdoor parking space, facing the intrusion of natural factors such as wind and sun, hail and rain, and there are also security risks.
In addition, in order to increase the indoor use area, villas without basement design are often designed to be higher floors, such as 4 to 5 floors.
Although this design increases the utilization of space, it also greatly reduces the living experience, because too many floors will increase the frequency of going up and down the stairs, and the slow speed of the home elevator affects the convenience of living.
Therefore, the basement is the soul of the villa and has a vital position.
When choosing a villa, the design of the basement should be one of the important factors to consider.
