Designing My Home

Home Design Assignment – Part B: “Dec-ing” It Out!

Task 1B: Furnishing Your Home

1. Furnishings List
   
   
   Brainstorm with your partner a list of items that you would like to have in each room of your home. Your list must include items you need such as major appliances and furniture. You may wish to consider items such as lamps, audio systems or home entertainment systems. Other items you may include, which are not mandatory, are: kitchen cabinetry, items for the deck and/or garage.
2. Furnishings Summary
   Using a spreadsheet or document table, create a furnishings summary, organized by room, including each item for the room, the source of this item (i.e. where you are purchasing it from), the cost of the item, and its dimensions (length, width, height). Use the internet, catalogues, store flyers or visit stores for prices and dimensions. Any additional spaces, such as garages or decks may be included, but are not mandatory.
   
   

Hand in (one for the pair):

• Furnishings summary for the entire home
• Calculation of total estimated cost of furnishings.
