10 Ways to Reduce Cluttter in your Home

Posted: 17 Jan 2011 06:02 PM PST

Most every home can honestly say they have challenges when it comes to keeping home clutter down.   Whether it’s the stacking up of bills, kid’s projects, or even garage clutter that you never throw anything away, clutter lurks in many corners of your home. If you think that decluttering your home has to be time consuming, it doesn’t. For minutes a day, reducing home clutter can become a way of life, that you don’t realize saves you time, energy, and your day will be less stressful! Here are 10 ways to reduce your home clutter with minimal amounts of effort! 1.) Purge now: Choose a room in your home and throw away, donate, and sell items that are not used or needed in that room. Each day, choose a different room. Before the week is up, you will have purged your entire home. Collect items in garage or one area to have a garage sale, or for items to be donated to your local area shelter, church or charity. 2.) Arm your family with storage options: One of the biggest reasons home owners feel it is hard to keep clutter at bay is accessibility to storage options. Find a system that works for you and your family. Baskets for loose magazines, clear toy bins for kids, and labeled filing boxes for the home office. 3.) Teach your family to declutter: When your children bring home arts and crafts, extra papers and miscellaneous clutter items. Ask them what they like the most, and file or cleverly eliminate what they don’t want. Older clutter items that may be taking real estate on kid’s desks and work tables can also be cleverly disposed of! 4.) Optimize vertical storage: Instead of trying to use every square inch of your floor space, use vertical storage. Shelving, book shelves, and vertical storage solutions will help you gain more floor space and keep everything in plain eye sight. Use highest shelving for seldom used seasonal items, so you don’t have to climb a ladder or step stool often. 5.) Make it part of your schedule: If every weekend for one hour you went through your home and looked for items that are no longer valid or used, this will keep down clutter tremendously. Magazine subscriptions, old newspapers, stacks of bills and mail are all items that should be filed or disposed of weekly 6.) Imagine how great you will feel: Have you ever walked into a clean room and then right into a cluttered room? Even though you think it may not affect you, try living in the cluttered space for days and weeks at a time. You will find you are less productive, more irritable and less likely to want to spend meaningful time in the space. Try it. 7.) Make it fun: Let’s face it, if organizing was more fun… oh how our homes would stay clutter free! Figure out what motivates you to declutter? Need incentives, new organization bins, file cabinets, or repainting the home office if you can keep your space decluttered? Make basket ball hoops over your kid’s laundry hamper… whatever works, right?! 8.) Know when to let go: Often times, the source of clutter is our own inability to let go of the old and unnecessary. This is especially true with clothes, memorabilia, and family collections. Assess your reason for keeping, and be able to have a physical place for everything you keep. If the only place your items fit is in a brown box in the garage, you probably don’t need it. 9.) Every time you finish, put it away: Parents especially are infamous for telling their kids to put things away after they play with them, but adults don’t always do the same. Your ability to put things back after you use them, will keep your home cleaner, and save you from procrastinating to the end of the week! 10.) Find productivity tools to help: With the advanced technology era we live in today, there is some type of productivity tool to help you stay organized and therefore clutter free! From online resources to help you organize your papers to smart phone apps to help you organize your business, there is no excuse why you can’t have a clutter free home and life. Your home doesn’t have to be a headache to get clutter free. Use these 10 tips to help you and your family figure out where to purge, clean, and organize for the future. Start small, or big – whichever keeps you going. If you get discouraged, go find a killer piece of furniture or electronic to motivate you! You’d be surprised how well you do, once there is a prize at the other end of the cluttered home hallway! Freshome readers, we’d love to hear how you keep your home clutter free. Do you have good storage containers, or are you still trying to tackle your home clutter? Feel free to add on to our top 10 list below. Ready for more amazing design ideas? Check below !

Featured Artist: Cherie Weaver

Posted: 17 Jan 2011 10:20 AM PST

Though it’s certainly enjoyable to find an artist whose work is so thematic and similar that you can spot a piece done by them from a mile away, we have a certain fascination with artist’s who work in a number of ideas, materials and styles. There’s a certain wildness to that searching kind of way of creating art. Cherie Weaver certainly has a bit of a wild streak. We spot paintings and watercolors and paper work and mixed media used on pieces ranging from geometric modern compositions to organic shapes to re-imagined old-fashioned baby portraits. Everything has a sense of humor to it, there are great color palettes and lots of movement and energy. We just loved looking through her website and seeing all the different pieces and wondering how they came about.

The Deichmann square by Chyutin Architects

Posted: 17 Jan 2011 07:55 AM PST

Chyutin Architects designed a landscaped square at Ben-Gurion University in Beer sheba, Israel.


The Deichmann Square by Chyutin Architects

The Deichmann square and the Negev Gallery constitute a link between Ben-Gurion University campus and the city of Be’er Sheva.

The square serves as an entrance gate to the western side of the campus, surrounded by existing buildings and the future Negev Gallery. The square offers an outdoor space for cultural and social activities for students and for the city population.

The square is bordered by the elongated structure of the gallery facing both the city and the campus. Towards the city, the gallery’s continuous façade (160 meter in length) unifies the heterogeneous appearance of the existing buildings behind the gallery into a cohesive urban unit. The city façade is accompanied by a sculpture garden creating a green edge to the campus. The two story high monolithic body of exposed concrete emerges from lawny topography of the northern part of the campus and hovers above an entrance courtyard in the southern part, where it appears to be leaping towards the urban space.

The gallery hosts exhibition spaces, museology faculty, workshops and auditorium contributing to the outdoor activities on Deichmann Square. Since the square was designated to accommodate intensive congregation of youth and students, the preferred solution was to allocate limited areas for vegetation. The design of the square with various elements of exposed concrete connects the surrounding buildings both physically and visually, accentuating their common features.

The square appears as a carpet of integrated strips of concrete paving, vegetation and lighting with concrete benches and trees scattered randomly. The strips of vegetation consist of lawn, Equisetopsida and seasonal plants.

Think Green: 10 Best Sustainable Homes of 2010

Posted: 17 Jan 2011 04:26 AM PST

Freshome readers, we know how much you enjoy seeing an architecture project that has it all: creativity, efficiency and … sustainability. That is why we decided to write a post that will display the top 10 Sustainable Homes of 2010, as voted by our readers. As usual, you can click on the photos in order to see more pictures & details about each project. #10. Casa No Gere comes from architects Graça Correia and Roberto Ragazzi and is located in an unconventional environment. Deep in Portugal’s national park is where the owners wished to live and their request was honored by the architects. The result? A bar-like structure with a unique exterior and modern indoor arrangements. Not a single tree was cut during the construction and the materials used were eco-friendly. #9. From German company Studio Aisslinger comes “Fincube” , an interesting and sustainable architecture project. The house was built at an altitude of 1200 meters near Bozen, Italy. Its design plan implies a low energy consumption with a minimal CO2 footprint. Fincube houses an area of 47 sq m, which is similar to the living space of a small apartment. Its interior design is minimal, yet it has everything city life has to offer. #8. The IKAROS House was unveiled in Germany at the European Solar Decathlon .  Built by the University of Applied Sciences in Rosenheim, this project produces energy that exceeds the home’s needs. How is this possible? By using a variety of green technology such as solar panels, vacuum insulation panels, efficient mechanical systems and natural ventilation. #7 . This prefab house with two floors on the Swiss countryside was built taking into account the inhabitants need for privacy and light. FOVEA Architects integrated this modern reminder of a farmhouse into the rural background of the countryside and created the Crooked House . The upper floor is inclined to 40 degrees and rests on top of the first rectangular floor. #6. Many people fear that the addition of solar panels might interact with the architecture design in a negative way. In this particular case, the panels are independent and we consider this to be an original alternative solution. Chuckanut Ridge House was designed by Prentiss Architects and is located in Washington state. #5.  “Home for Life” is a sustainable residential project coming from Danish architects AART . Located near Aarhus in Denmark, this building is an  “Active House”, making a statement in the field of architecture by emphasizing on low energy consumption and a “low-carbon future”. Amazingly enough, this home produces more energy than it consumes. Click the photo for more details. #4. The beautiful and compact home comes from Pietro Russo – Ecomo and is located in Franschhoek, South Africa. The architecture took advantage of the mesmerizing landscape and created a home that communicates with its natural environment. Based on green, sustainable features, the home offers a secluded nature escape while in the same time obeying by the rules of contemporary design. #3. Situated on a hill top, this home offers incredible views of the Russian River Valley. A lap pool invites you to tonify your muscles while breathing the surrounding fresh air. For building this home, architect Dowling Kimm thought about using the most sustainable materials and energy efficient systems. #2. Hover House 3 comes from Glen Irani Architects and is located on the Venice Canals of Los Angeles, California. The challenge of the project was to maximize outdoor space, by creating a volume that seems to hover above the ground level. Moreover, the project is a showcase of sustainability, according  to the architects. Be sure to click the photo for a description of this home’s sustainable features. #1. Robles Arquitectos created this incredible beach Villa in Costa Rica. The house is situated on a small hill above the ocean, 20km from away from any town. The self-sustainable structure was a challenge to the architects, as the house had to be independent and reliable in the humid environment. The building houses a multifunctional space for the ISEAMI Institute (Institute of Sustainability, Ecology, Art,Mind and and the second level of the house is used as a home by the Institute`s director. With a spectacular appearance and plenty of green, sustainable features, this residence hit number one in our countdown. Ready for more amazing design ideas? Check below !
