CHAPTER I

 A residential are is a land use in which

housing predominates, as opposed to
industrial and commercial areas. Housing
may vary significantly between, and
through, residential areas. These include
single family housing, multiple family
housing such as apartments, duplexes,
townhomes (or similar configurations),
condominiums or mobile homes.

 In certain residential areas, largely rural,
quite large tracts of land may exist which
have no services whatsoever. Because a
large distance must be traveled to access
the nearest services, most journeys
involve using a motor vehicle or some
other form of transport. This need has
resulted in Residential land development
usually existing or planned infrastructure
such as rail and road.
 The pattern of development is usually set
forth in the restrictive covenants
contained in the deeds to the properties in
the development, but may also result from
or be reinforced by zoning. Restrictive
covenants are not easily changed as the
agreement of all property owners (many of
whom may not live in the area) may need
to be obtained to effect a change. The area
may also be large or small.
 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

interior design must not be taken for
granted. Its effectiveness could be
easily detected through the
convenience it offers. Its quality and
design call the attention of the people
using the space.

individuals:
•
THE OCCUPANTS

– The occupants would greatly benefit from the

proposed project through acquiring
residences that will cater to their needs.
•

 THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

 In conceiving this study, different theories

of learning and knowledge have been
used and quoted. The following are the
main concepts and constructs upon this
study is based.
 THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

 Eleanor McMillen Brown, in her work

 “Sixty Years of Interior Design”
 “Sixty Years of Interior Design”
 “Contemporary painting and sculpture
are happy with furniture of the past.
Fabrics of contemporary colors and
textures and suitable and appealing on
old chairs. Old patterns seem excitingly
fresh when rejuvenated by a
contemporary palette. Modern Lighting
and ventilation enhance otherwise
traditional rooms.”
 THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

Van Day Truex, in his work

“The Man who Defined Twentieth- Century Taste”

 “there is nothing more trite than a period

room imposed on a contemporary
setting.”
•
 THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

Frank A. Parson, in his work

“Interior Decoration : It’s Principle and Practice”

 It’s Principle and Practice” said that “a

house is but the normal expression of
one’s intellectual concept of fitness and his
aesthetic ideal of what is beautiful.”

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

 John Saldino’s work said that

 “the most successful buildings
demonstrate harmonious relationships
in scale, whether extremely to their
surroundings, or internally to their
occupants.”
 THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

Albert Hadley, in his work

e story of America’s Pre eminent Interior Design
 Albert Hadley
 “a designer must understand that taste is not a
standard but the power to discern, to
concentrate. Taste is an appreciation of order
and a sure knowledge of what constitute of
fitness. These concepts can be learned through
education, travel, experience, and living. In
learning these principles, the person will come to
understand that a room-any-room is simply an
enclosure of space and time for a specific
purpose. The challenge is to know what is
suitable in these defined space.
•
 Conceptual
Framework
This study envisions to design a residential spaces
which achieves modernity, comfort, style, harmony, and
balance that meets the needs and wants of the people
who seeks satisfaction. A place where one can see
elegance in simplicity that develops a friendly
community that can freely be effective to build a family,
a community.

 research. The term descriptive research
refers to the type of research question,
 design, and data analysis that will be
applied to a given topic. (Glass &

such as graphs and charts to aid the
reader in understanding the data
distribution.

PROCED URE
The following procedures to gather data will be used in
this study:
 LIBRARY RESEARCH
 This includes data gathered from
libraries. The library technique in the
 collection of data is a way which the
researcher can employ in order to
 realize the objectives in the said study.

Various materials in the study are

used

 INTERVIEWS
 Interviews are particularly useful for
getting the story behind an
occupants likes and dislikes. The
main task in interviewing is to
understand the meaning of what
the interviewees say. Interviews
are among the most challenging
and rewarding forms of
measurement. They require a
personal sensitivity and
adaptability as well as the ability to
stay within the bounds of the
 OBSERVATION
 Observation is a complex research method
because it often requires the researcher to play
a number of roles and to use a number of
techniques, including her/his five senses, to
collect data. In addition, despite the level of
involvement with the study group, the
researcher must always remember her/his
primary role as a researcher and remain
detached enough to collect and analyze data
relevant to the problem under investigation. The
purpose of this article is to describe in some
depth the types of roles a researcher can
assume during an observational study. In
addition, an overview of some of the
characteristics unique to observational research,
as well as validity and reliability and ethical
issues, are addressed.
DATA TREATMENT
Data gathered will be treated using Slovin’s


Formula to get the accurate degree of the

respondents to be studied.


n = number of samples
 The formula is as follows:
N = total population

e = margin of error

= 28 respondents
The respondents to be studied must


be 28 out of 30 considering the 5%

margin of error, for those who give
their views about St. Ezekiel Homes,
based on Slovin’s Formula with the
equation above.
