Zoning
Activity Mapping
We interview each household member about where laptop work, ironing, and guest sleep actually happen versus where they should happen.
Conflicts become numbered problems on the plan.
Soft Boundaries
Rugs, lighting pools, and ceiling height changes define zones where walls cannot move.
Curtains on ceiling tracks split studio corners without blocking light wells.
Acoustic Separation
Bookshelves and textile panels reduce sound bleed between sleep and living areas.
No claim of full soundproofing — honest expectations only.
Guest and Flex Space
Sofa beds and folding desks are positioned where daily routes do not cross midnight bathroom trips.
Storage for guest bedding is within arm reach of setup zone.
Maintenance Paths
Vacuum routes and bin emptying lines stay unobstructed after zoning changes.
Kids' play areas keep sight lines from kitchen stove.
