Having a clean and welcoming space is everyone’s dream. Maintaining a tidy home everyday is a task in itself. Architect Onal Kothari helps you with easy ways to get that quality of an arranged, neat space.

  1. Scheduling: Set a time frame for cleaning goals and maintain it on weekly, monthly or daily basis. Do the cleaning in parts and not all at once. Be specific about your schedules depending on your activities. For example, if you are about to host a party by the end of this month, start with cleaning the kitchen and living areas on priority.
  2. Focus: It is okay to pick a single task than multi-tasking. Try to focus on a single square foot room than the whole house. Remove one unnecessary item a day until you’ve reached your desired goal and then move on. Concentrating on a single space at a time like crowded basement or a bountiful book collection helps you organize your home faster and becomes manageable in the long run.
  3. Power of three: Keep, donate and dump are the three magical words to achieve the desire tidiness. The first pile refers to collecting all the necessary products from instruments to books and clothing. Donation pile goes to the needy. The dump pile needs to go into the garbage can.
  4. Trends: This makes it easy to decide what to keep and what to eliminate or avoid purchasing. Keep aside some time every alternate week and update yourself with the trends.
  5. Act: It is hard for everyone to get rid of stuffs they love the most. Take the challenge to act instead of sticking to old belongings.
  6. Maintenance: Home maintenance is a process that requires attention. Keep the de-cluttering sessions alive even after you have finished your required task of the month. De-cluttering adds value to your property, calms the mood and keeps your home party ready.
