FCID 222 Study Guide - Quiz Guide: Bay Window, Interrupt
Document Summary
Short passage: keep passages short, make them as much like a room as possible, with carpets or wood on the floor, furniture, shelves, windows. Make them generous in shape, and give plenty of light. Sleeping to the east: give the parts of the house where people sleep an eastern orientation, so that they wake up with the sun and light. This means that the sleeping area needs to be on the eastern side of the house, but can also be on the western side provided there is a terrace to the east of it. Alcoves: make small spaces at the edge of any common room, usually no longer than 6 feet wide and 3-6 feet deep and possibly much smaller, large enough for two people to sit, chat, or play. Window place: bay window, window seat, low sill, glazed alcove.
