Learning Space Planning with Me: From Clutter to Functional Living
Introduction: My Journey with Space Planning
When I was younger, space planning was never on my radar. A single room with a bed and cupboard was enough. Pinterest-worthy interiors were just eye candy — inspiring, but out of reach.
But life changes. The “only me” became a family, and suddenly I realized that a well-planned space isn’t just about looks. It’s about functionality, flow, and how our surroundings can either support or disrupt our daily routines.
Why Functional Spaces Matter
I learned something important: our habits often fail not because of a lack of willpower, but because our space isn’t aligned with our practices. Two conflicting paths rarely coexist in a cluttered environment.
We all want clutter-free homes, yet many of us keep adding to the mess instead of resolving it — simply because our spaces aren’t optimized. Functional space planning can reduce stress, make routines easier, and create a calmer home environment.
My Space Planning Journey
This page is my journey — a place to unlearn, relearn, experiment, and document what works and what doesn’t. I aim to share insights, tips, and lessons as I explore space planning for everyday life.
By learning about circulation, furniture placement, storage solutions, and multifunctional layouts, I hope to make my home — and my life — a little less chaotic.

I hope sharing my experience will inspire others to rethink their own spaces. As I learn from designers, online resources, and hands-on experiments, I invite you to explore and apply these ideas in your own home.
