creatively design a new interior theme or look for your bedroom.
1. Draft onto graph paper (using the one square = 1 foot) the dimensions of your bedroom. (Hint - use
your home safety plan to quickly locate measurements)
2. Use proper drafting symbols to show the placement of door and window openings, as well as
closet space.
3. Use proper drafting symbols to indicate the placement of lights and electrical sockets in your room.
4. Cut out and use the templates provided for the items you would like to include in your bedroom
makeover.
5. BEFORE attaching to the graph paper, spend time moving these items around your floor space to
allow for Standard Clearance Spaces (see handout).
6. Once you have considered and flow of movement through the room and space for movement of
furniture and doors; glue the templates into place to indicate your room set-up.
7. Now decorate your room. Remember concepts of colour schemes, balance and design principles.
Using materials (magazines, paint chips, carpet samples, etc.) on plain white paper, create a design
presentation of what your room will include this may be in book or presentation board format.

g. Bed dcor comforter, pillows, personal touches
9. Use the internet or magazines (Ikea, Home Sense, Bed Bath and Beyond, etc.) to find the cost of
items used to create your makeover. Create a budget for your room clearly listing the items and
their cost to form a grand total. State and support whether this a reasonable amount for what you
did?
