Staff Cecil Lee Posted September 29, 2018 Staff Share Posted September 29, 2018 Asked Meta AI to imagine this former study room +++ Case Study: I used to have a lovely study room. With full height glass walls. 1. The elegant study room was once visible from the living room, adding a touch of prestige to the home, ideal for the family's CEO or CFO. Upon entering the living room, one could see the study room clearly. 1.1. Regrettably, it was later reverted to a bedroom due to the family's growth over the years. Nevertheless, the configuration of the rooms has remained the same. 2. Regrettably, it was changed back into a bedroom because of the family's expansion over the years. However, the arrangement of the rooms has not altered. 3. It is important to consider the long-term effects before installing full glass panels in any room. 4. Specifically, it was reverted from a study back to a bedroom once more. 5. I consistently advise my clients that even if they prefer glass walls, it is often wiser to choose half-walls instead of full walls. 6. The reasoning behind this is simple and based on common sense. 7. Casual Conversation: Child (in the bedroom that was formerly a study): "Mommy, I don't want to sleep in this room!" Toddler (in the study that has been converted back into a bedroom): "Mama.. I can't sleep in this bedroom!" Mama: "What is the matter, darling?" Toddler: "The lights from the dining and living room are too bright." Mama shouted: "PAPA! Go FIX-IT"... It is no surprise that today, there is a makeshift curtain... as observed today...

Staff Cecil Lee Posted September 29, 2018 Author Staff Share Posted September 29, 2018 Case Study: The demographic of individuals opting to install glass walls in their study generally comprises young males who are first-time homeowners, typically under the age of 30. In my opinion, the individuals drawn to these spaces are predominantly young adults in their early to late twenties, often first-time homeowners who do not have children. It is uncommon for individuals in their mid-30s and beyond to choose these "aquarium" style rooms. When viewed from the outside, it is clear that these rooms bear a striking resemblance to an aquarium. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted September 29, 2018 Author Staff Share Posted September 29, 2018 Case Study: Guidelines for converting a bedroom into a study area using glass partitions. 1. No, this does not pertain to Feng Shui. It is fundamentally based on practical considerations. 1.2 However, when examining Symbolism in Feng Shui, it is beneficial to investigate the rationale behind the preference for multiple glass panels instead of a single one. The arrangement of two glass panels could be a crucial aspect to take into account. 2. If possible, it is advisable to avoid a glass wall that stretches from the floor to the ceiling. 3. Consider the implementation of a wall that is half the height. Ideally, this wall should be 42" tall from the floor to the top, with the lowest point at 32". 4. Glass walls frequently encompass the entire room, which may present difficulties for your Interior Designer and/or contractor in supplying a single piece of glass. 5. Have you observed the presence of an "X" in the illustration? 6. It is essential to recognize that when viewing the study room from this perspective, the joint-lines of the glass panels should not bisect the individual's view. 7. For HDB 5 Bedroom units, some individuals are considering the incorporation of a study area within the living room. Often, the sofa is placed against the back of this wall. 7.1. In such instances, it is recommended to refrain from positioning the "X" or split line directly in the center of the sofa. Symbolically, this can create a division within the living space. Consider investigating the use of irregular glass panels as a possible solution. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Cecil Lee Posted July 16, 2019 Author Staff Share Posted July 16, 2019 Above: The glass study room, in its entirety, seems rather enjoyable. Nevertheless, as time progresses, it might become disorganized or necessitate repurposing to accommodate a larger family. This situation could result in the transformation of the room into a bedroom, which may demand a degree of creativity. In certain instances, a half-height wall might serve as an appropriate solution.
