1. Clutter
- People aim for a tidy and clean looking home, but that they find it difficult to get that ideal mainly due to a build up of clutter.
- Clutter happens either due to laziness, or from things that people don't know what to do with at that particular time, or from just collecting too many things and not having enough space for it.
- Something that everyone I spoke to had a problem with was clothes that end up not going away incase they are needed tomorrow.
- Other things included papers and magazines.
- Some people admitted that they were hoarders and didn't throw anything away, as these things provided as a physical map of their life.
2. Organisation
- This is necessary especially for those things that are important.
- Objects that have sentimental value, or that represent a large amount of time are most treasured.
- Sharing spaces with people can lead to disorder
3. Social interaction
- Homes are a place to connect with people:
- Family members and friends
- Connecting with people should be actively engaging - television can often cut people off from each other
- People tidy up to make for a more relaxed environment with more space to socialise, and so that others don't judge them.
- Too much mess and clutter are seen as bad, however peoples limits are different. Generally a bit of clutter makes a home look lived in.
- People often socialise away from the home in a more mutual location, free from home stresses or embarrassment.
4. Ideal Workspaces
- solitary
- alone but connected with others - like sitting, working in a cafe
- Some vary their environment depending on their mood.
- workspace should have atmosphere (which makes you feel contained within your environment) and should not be over lit.
