  1. Teen Living Notes Obj. 14.01 Assess ways to maintain living space.

  2. Maintain living space • Preventive maintenance – making sure that structures and equipment in the home are running properly. Ex: checking outside water faucets for leaks or wrapping piles during winter months to prevent freezing or simply cleaning the clothes dryer lint filter or cleaning the rain gutters

  3. Maintain living space • Preventive maintenance plans: • Professional maintenance–Paying a company to come to your house and perform a job that is needed. Ex: having your fireplace & chimney cleaned properly • Corrective maintenance – fixing a home problem that could destroy or damage the house. Ex: water spot on the ceiling and hiring someone to replace shingles • Self maintenance – being able to correct the problem yourself. Ex: homeowner fixes sink pipes that were leaking.

  4. Maintain living space • House cleaning: • Daily: washing dishes, wipe kitchen countertop and appliances & pick up items to put where they belong. • Weekly: changing bed sheets & washing them, vacuum or sweep floors, clean bathroom area and do the laundry • To help prevent a fire remember to have chimney clean once a year from trash or build-up. • Door mats makes a room easier to clean.

  5. Obj. 14.02 Demonstrate ways to enhance living space.

  6. Enhance living space • Design principles: • Emphasis- drawing attention where you want it. Ex: fireplace build with large river rocks or a mask collection being notice first when walking in a room. • Balance – giving equal weight to the spaces on both sides of an imaginary center line. Ex: matching candlesticks on a mantel. • Variety – combining different styles & materials in a room, but not too much, like 3 styles of furniture, this can create confusion.

  7. Maintain living space • Proportion – relates in size • Rhythm – regular repetition of line, shape, color, or texture creates this. • Unity – feeling that all objects in the room belong together. • Rearranging the furniture is the easiest way to create the “feel” of more space in a room.

  8. Enhance living space • To help a young child become more organized in their bedroom, use bright color storage boxes. • When you are not able to put away your clothes properly in a dresser drawer, one will need more storage space to protect your clothes.

  9. Enhance living space • Elements of design: to help bring harmony to the space • Color, line, shape (design), and texture(the way it feels like fuzzy pillows) • To create a calming effect use light blue and white. Also light blue will make a room appear larger. • focal point – an item that draws attention when entering into a room.

  10. Maintain living space • Be creative in coming up with new ways to store items in a home. Ex: A teacher could hang up a shoe bag in a classroom to keep graphing calculators in. • Compartmentalization – divide space in the closet or drawers into smaller categories and designate a place for each type of item.

  11. Maintain living space • To hang necklaces beside a dresser mirror one could use hooks, this would help with decoration and storage. • To make a room appear smaller uses dark colors. • Primary colors are: blue, red & yellow

  12. Maintain living space • Horizontal lines can make a ceiling appear lower. • Accessories in a bedroom are items like pillows, pictures, and lamp. Extra items to help with decorating a room. In a bathroom it would be items like candle, pictures, or toothbrush holder
