Casa Vuelta: l-shaped living area linking two diagonal bedrooms

Casa Vuelta is the editorial name for this study of ResPlan plan 15502, reconstructed in 3D by Lodnor. The living room turns from the entrance-side area into a central band between the bedrooms and kitchen. One bathroom connects directly to a bedroom, while the second occupies a narrow bay off the living area.

An L-shaped room does the connecting

Casa Vuelta extends the living room from the entrance-side area into a central band between the diagonal bedrooms and kitchen. The L is therefore more than a furniture backdrop. Its arms form part of the movement system, and the corner deserves attention before either arm is filled with seating.

The reconstructed envelope is approximately 11.51 × 6.48 m, using the public model’s width and depth. Keep that overall scale separate from bedroom width, passage clearance and furniture size: each needs its own check against a dimensioned source or a site measurement.

Direct and shared bathroom access coexist

One bathroom connects directly to a bedroom, while a second narrow bay opens off the living area. These differing approaches make the central living band a shared route with a specific bathroom destination. Preserve that distinction when discussing privacy rather than calling both bathroom relationships the same.

Define a sitting corner without closing the bend

A proposed sofa group could occupy the entrance-side arm while leaving the central band clearer. The alternative may suit a different brief, but either should be judged at the L’s bend and shared bathroom approach. The open-looking corner is not automatically spare floor for an extra chair.

Trace the bathroom trip around the L

Find the bathroom off the living room and sketch a seating group in each arm of the L in turn. Trace the approach from the entrance-side area and from both bedrooms. Compare where the bend becomes tight and whether the narrow bathroom bay remains easy to identify.

The shared bathroom approach and L-shaped bend are the fixed tests for either seating position; do not choose an arm of the room from appearance alone.
