			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;1K&#8221;, &#8220;2DK&#8221;, &#8220;3LDK&#8221; are examples of how Japanese describe the sizes of apartments/houses.</p>
<p>The number indicates the number of rooms.</p>
<p>L = Living Room, D = Dining Room, K = Kitchen.</p>
<p>E.g. The layout on the left shows a typical 1LDK layout and on the right a typical 2DK layout.</p>
<p>Most LDK rooms has a bigger space and kitchen is separated, while DK rooms have smaller area and kitchen is not separated.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ur-housing.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/1LDK2DK1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-780 colorbox-39" title="1LDK2DK" src="http://www.ur-housing.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/1LDK2DK1-300x139.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="139" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Difference Between 1K and 1DK</p>
<p>As you can see for 1K or 1R(Room), there is only a little space for the kitchen since there is no Dining area. While 1DK room has a separated room and a wider area in the kitchen.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ur-housing.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/1DK.gif"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-782 colorbox-39" style="border-style: initial; border-color: initial;" title="1DK" src="http://www.ur-housing.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/1DK-300x181.gif" alt="" width="300" height="181" /></a></p>
