Living with people other than your immediate family can cause a big and sudden change to your living arrangement. Inviting relatives or visiting friends to stay in your home for instance, should not only be comfortable for them but also functional so as not to disrupt your established routines or lifestyle. A tasteful division of space is not only aesthetically pleasing to the eyes but a privacy winner as well.
Shapes, lines and geometry are part of the foundations of basic design.
