Many ways to create space in you home Many homeowners lack adequate storage space in their homes. However, there are many ways to enhance, modify, and re- arrange space within the existing framework of a home without resorting to expensive structural alterations. The arrangement of fur- niture in a room, or the size of the pieces, can make an adequately sized room feel cramped and uncomfor- table. By using some in- terior design principles, such as eliminating un- necessary pieces or using furniture whose scale fits the size of the room, you can renew your living space. Try to arrange the furniture into functional groupings, centred around the nature of the activities and keep traffic paths clear. In tight or awkwardly shaped rooms, consider us- ing built-in furniture. While built-ins lack the flexibility and mobility of freestan- ding pieces, they can be tailored to fit the dimen- sions of a room. Built-in fur- niture can make the most out of the space around or below windows, in small niches or alcoves, in closets, or in between wall studs. Built-in seating can serve a double, purpose by pro- viding .table tops and storage space. In converted attics, the space beneath the roof along the eaves can be fitted with built-in storage, desk space, or a day bed for lounging. Properly designed storage can help organize your belongings, and leave more room for activities and furnishings. To begin planning the storage for your home, first eliminate items you don't use. Reserve articles that are used only once a month for filling hard-to-reach storage spaces, back of shelves or awkward corners of cabinets. Keep frequently used items close at hand, within your reach. Once you have an idea of how much storage you need, and where you need it, consider the different types of storage. Storage can be: classified into two major categories; open and closed. Open shelving systems and wall units are ideal for displaying art ob- jects, memorabilia, and collections. Closed storage, such as closets, cabinets, and drawers is useful for con- cealing items that tend to be cluttered or visually unat- (416) 985-9777 PORT PERRY PLAZA FAX 985-9161 tractive. Closed storage is also useful where dust is a problem, and cleaning is to be kept to a minimum. Whether open or closed, a storage unit can be moveable or built-in a room.
