Houses come in all shapes and sizes and much depends upon the size of a family as to what an ideal home is. The more people in a family the more living space they require. A family of six would be better having a home that has plenty of bedroom space and a good sized kitchen. Couples or single people might prefer an apartment which is easy to manage without having to worry about the grass growing. Older people sometimes down size to a small bungalow as a bigger house costs more to heat and maintain. Whatever sort of house people choose everyone wants to be comfortable as well as it being suitable for their family size. Homes today are more modern than ever and with Daff interior design elements many resemble pictures from popular home magazines. Home magazines often include advertisements showing tables, chairs, bedroom furniture and modern up-to-the minute kitchens to die for. Clocks by Stamps are regularly featured in the magazines as well as buildings showing how certain designs can improve overall ambiance.

Most women would like to have a big kitchen with the latest designer gadgets which feature a dishwasher, washing machine with tumble drier, microwave oven and a fridge freezer. A kitchen where all the family can sit around the table to eat meals instead of eating off a tray while watching the television. The lounge and dining room in modern day houses often have a television on the wall, comfortable settees and chairs with large windows that bring in plenty of light. Bedrooms have in built wardrobes with many having en-suite bathrooms. Many houses have two separate toilets and even two bathrooms which usually include a shower. Houses today are certainly built different to how they used to be and people take such things like an inside toilet and central heating for granted. The old back to back houses have all been pulled down and new houses have been built in their place. People lived in back to back houses without any central heating, no bathroom and going to the toilet meant going outside to one which was shared by the neighbours. The inside of these houses were very small and people had to sit round a coal fire to keep warm and hot water had to be boiled up in a kettle. Baths were taken once a week in a tin bath filled up with hot water that had been boiled up in the kettle. Those days have thankfully gone and most of us today enjoy comfortable warm and spacious homes compared with the homes of the past.
