Habeeb, Food and Home Equipment Editor of American Home magazine. Just what is a clutter room? It's a laundry; designed with the sink, storage cabinets, washer, dryer, and ironing board all within a few steps of each other. It's a sewing center, complete with a table large enough, to lay out patterns, and a sewing machine that is left up at all times. A clutter room is a woman's home office a place to pay bills, make a list, write letters.

It can be a studio a place to paint a picture, write a poem, or wrap a birthday present. Usually, a h- v- life. fM i i I "I i -'iT- "'-i it i i i 1 "IM lis i 4 I'1 pa FaP -'r "1 It 1 James Y.

Part-Time Isle Resident's Home 4 Rain Jets cover the front lawn of a 50 ft clutter room is also a playroom where Mother can keep an eye on the youngsters while she does her 'chores.

ABOVE ALL, a clutter room should be the place that Mother calls her own. It doesn't need to be kept in apple pie order. If the next door neighbor happens to drop in while the laundry is being folded, Mother simply walks out of her clutter room and closes the door, leaving her work out until she is ready to resume. One expression of Mrs. Habeeb's "Clutter Room" was designed by the Armstrong Cork Bureau of Interior Design.

In designing the room, Armstrong decided several considerations would be of primary importance: noise control, lighting, ease of maintenance, and an attractive appearance. The noise problem the sounds of active children combined with the din of several appliances running at once called for the use of effective acoustical materials. The designers chose a Box Beam suspended ceiling with 2'x4' acoustical ceiling panels. The acoustical panels soak up as much as 70 percent of the sound waves striking the ceiling surface and make the room quieter and more comfortable. LIGHTING is extremely important since the housewife will spend much of her time at the sewing table, the ironing board, or working at her desk.

Bright, glare-free illumination was needed, and again, the ceiling provided the answer. Translucent "luminous" ceiling, panels, incorporated into the grid system directly beneath fluorescent fixtures over each major work area, provide an even, softly diffused light. Excelon vinyl-asbestos tile was selected by the designers for the floor of the clutter room for several reasons. Vinyl-asbestos tile is available in a wide variety of designs and colors, including many with embossed effects that are designed to complement the current consumer interest in natural home furnishings.
