One-Bedroom Suite Annotated Changes

1. A private open office workspace was positioned in the existing kitchen dining space. With a work surface, and ergonomic chair, and ample open and closed storage, space is optionally enclosed with sliding frosted translucent partitions that permit varied stages of private, semi-private, and fully open configurations. The Attention Restoration Theory (ART) and biophilic design is highly granted. Additionally, the shelves provide a great location for personal attachment item display. 2. While a freestanding table typically introduces a flexible positioning, this limited living space requested a fixed dining counter to ensure max floor space was available. Thus, this counter-height surface provides an additional preparation surface and an added workspace. 3. A sectional with storage and a pull-out bed has been sourced in this limited lounge area of this suite.

By first providing comfort, this fixture provides an optional guest bedstead. 4. With bedroom workspaces displaying their appeal to 54% of millennials, this additional simple workspace is suggested if partners occupy this dwelling. Overall, this new domicile allocates three interior workspaces. 5. With a significant appeal to nature and fresh air, an optional workspace is presented on the exterior balcony, weather permitting. This follows the appeal of being able to move from one space to another during a workday. 6. Lastly, the inclusion of natural plants throughout the space, including organic finishes and natureinspired wall coverings (as seen in Figure 34), the overall space follows a biophilic design approach to ensure a nurturing and healing environment is providing a physical and psychological supportive dwelling.
