demonstrates the interrelationship between the position of openings and furnishing possibilities. Furthermore, it also shows how the form and size of the openings as well as the form of the furniture elements influences our impression of the room's dimensions.

Room A

 Room A The proportions of the window and the bed/sofa as well as their relative position emphasizes the narrow form of the room.
In this example, a cupboard in the open corner would demonstrate the well known space-saving solution designed for children.
To eliminate the "cabin atmosphere" the cupboard should be added to the space - a problem we did not deal with in the exercise.

Room B

 Room B The low horizontal window emphasizes the transverse axis thus reducing the expression of narrowness. The deep shelf related to the writing table contributes to the effect.

Room G

Room C

 Rooms C and G The position of door and window allows alternative solutions for furnishing. Both rooms demonstrate that placing the bed/sofa transversely to the longitudinal axis, will give the effect of greater width and spaciousness. Comparing the two windows, it is easy to conceive the beneficial horizontal influence of the opening in room G.
Sitting or lying in the bed/sofa you will experience a greater distance to the opposite wall than in rooms A and B.

The functional areas are separate. (Compare this with rooms A and B).
