Publisher's Synopsis
This is an illustrated and practical guide to the problem of space and organized living. Our homes are increasingly repositories for accessories of everyday life - books, CDs, videos, clothes, kitchen equipment, garden tools, toys, treasures and momentos - that can be attractive and utilitarian yet all devour space and demand individual systems of organization. Reorganizing your home is one of the cheapest ways of improving your surroundings and increasing the actual amount of space at your disposal.;Your approach to organization can define your home more fundamentally than any colour scheme or furnishing style. Storage can have a radical effect on spatial planning, and the ease and efficiency with which you perform everyday tasks. Whether you leave everything out on view or banish clutter behind cupboard doors - how you accomodate your possessions will determine the character of your home and your efficiency in the routines and rituals of daily life. There is no need to be rigidly disciplined or fanatically tidy to enjoy the pleasures and comforts of a well organized home. With practical tips, checklists and floor plans, this aims to let you make the most of every corner of your home.
