Designed to Sell

While trying to sell a home a person must stage their house. This does not mean curtain calls and actors, it is cleaning up your house, and letting the buyers picture themselves in your house.

-Paint color, instead of having bright, bold colors in your house, repaint to be neutral colors that can't upset a person.
-Odors, neutral odors that everybody loves is a great way to go, so before you show your house bake some cookies or brownies or something that will smell delicious.
-Clutter, the need to picture them in your home is great, getting rid of family photos, extra junk, like child's toys and books will help with the clutter, less is more!
-Organization, this goes with the clutter piece as well, having things in hidden places makes the house look more appealing like it actually is organized.
-Beauty that stays, make the points that are gonna stay be the focal point this will help them to believe the beauty will stay.

Taking a little time before putting your house on the market will pay off in the long run. It will sell faster and get you more money as it goes.

Kitchen design

This is a very simple L-shaped kitchen. The Fridge, sink and oven make a triangular shape, with the sink in the middle. This kitchen was designed for a younger family who wanted counter space with simple appliances, dishwasher, oven, fridge, and sink with the microwave and toaster tucked in a cupboard.

My Room

Principle of Design: Harmony, nature

Elements of Design: Exam

Line: is in the all around room, on the floor, and on the ceiling and in the stairs.
Space: I put plenty of room between the chairs and their is a lot of space for the kids playing area
Texture: the toys in the children's area feels like wood.

Principle of Design: Rythm

In this board of rythm there is three different types put into it. The two pillows on the bed are both repetition and radiation. Repetition is obviously more than one of something, and radiation is something bursting from a center point.And then there is gradation, which is the two lamps in the left corner of the room. Gradation is two alike things being at different heights.

Element of Design: Texture

In this board, both couchces look soft and give a comfy effect. The clock looks bumpy and the mirror on the right looks rough and has an outdoorsy effect on the room. The silver side table sounds like when you go over the white line and hit the drunk marks. This gives the room a funky feel. The rugs has an audible texture souding like shuffling. This gives the room a feeling of fun yet chill. The clock on the left side of the wall sounds clean and feels smooth, giving the room a chic feel to it. The lamp feels cold like metals and sounds screechy.

Principle of Design: Proportion and Scale

Proportion and Scale are a very important thing in a room. While you are designing a room you must think about the size of the objects that you are putting into the room alone as well as with the others. For an example, you cannot have a big coffee table with a little lamp on top of it, nor can you have a huge lamp on top of a snall table. The different sizes of the objects have to match each other. This room shows awful proportion and scale. The couch is too big for the room, the lamp is too small for the table that it is pplaced on and lastly the floor lamp is way too big the room.
