Adjacency Matrix
Adjacency Matrix: Common Areas

The common areas should all be located

within the same area and close to the
bathrooms. Places that need plumbing
should also be adjacent, such as the
kitchenette and public bathrooms. Private
areas such as tenant apartments should
remain relatively remote from high traffic
areas.

Continue:
Adjacency Matrix: Tenant Spaces

As with most living spaces, you want

the plumbing areas to be adjacent for
construction convenience. Other
adjacent areas include kitchen to
dining, bedrooms to closets/storage.
Bedrooms should remain away from
entry areas for privacy and safety.

Anne
Style
Overview
Standard Color Palette

Primary color palettes were deep neutrals such as cherry,

mahogany, and ebony woods with relatively neutral accent
colors like beige, sage green (oldhouseonline.com). Other
colors used might have included some deep reds, gold and
some warm blues.
Overview Figure 1.

Typical Textiles

Damask was a very popular pattern for Queen Anne, as seen

on the walls in the photo. This patter could also be used on
upholstery and window treatments. Velvet, and other heavy,
often luxurious fabrics were imported from Europe and used
for windows, bed canopies and also upholstery (bozzle.com)
Overview Figure 3.

Typical Elements

Ceilings often had plaster roses or medallions, while walls

were finished with a dado and paneling. Crown molding,
arches and some use of stained glass windows are typical of
Queen Anne Style. The style is a basic collaboration of
several design styles.
Overview Figure 2.

Overview Figure 4.
Interior Materials

Interior materials were solid wood,

plaster and wood lath walls, glazed tiles
for fireplaces and wood parquet floors
(buffaloah.com).
The image shows the excess use of
wood for paneling and also for the
parquet flooring, where the pieces of
wood are interchanging to create
elaborate patterns in the floor.

Dado
While the outsides of the Queen
Anne came in many different
colors, the inside, typically was of
rich browns from high quality
wood trim and wainscoting or
dado.
The dado referred to the
horizontal trim piece that
separates
the lower part of the wall, often
referred to as a chair rail
(aestheticinteriors.com).

Lathing
Interior wall construction of
the time was wood lath,
covered in plaster, then coated
with paint or wall paper.
Lathing involves the placing of
thin, narrow strips of wood
between studs to act as a
surface for plaster to be applied
(dictionary.com).
Wall Figure 1.
Wall Figure 2.

Finishes
Wainscoting
Wainscoting is referring to the
decorative paneling below the
dado on a wall
(dictionary.com/wainscot). This
decorative wood paneling was
done in a variety of different
styles from flat paneled, bead
board, or raised paneled. In the
image you can see an example of
a raised paneled wainscot.

Wall Figure 3.

Wall Figure 4.

The wall colors were often darker

with lots of wood trim below the
dado but above it, the walls were
finished with paint, painted and
stenciled with damask or velour
wall covering. These designs were
more neutral in color scheme
while the patterns from stencils
or covering could be more
elaborate with Japanese
inspiration
(oldhouseonline.com).

Beams Coffers

Ceiling Medallions

Ceiling medallions were very

typical of Queen Anne style.
Most often the medallions were
intricate in design. While many
seen are white due to being made
with plaster they, they come in
various colors depending on how
expensive the home is and the
wealth of the families. They
would have various vines, twisted
leaves, acanthus motifs, various
flowers, rosaces and palmettes.
Ceiling Figure 1.

Pressed Tin Ceilings

These ceilings would sometimes be

coffered, some medallion, some tiled,
and some would have decorative
motifs around brimming the ceiling
where it meets the wall. The motifs
would be commonly themed like the
plastered ceilings (vines, twisted
leaves, acanthus motifs, various
flowers, rosaces and palmettes) the
only difference is that it was pressed
tin rather than plaster. This ceiling
was a bit more extravagant and more
expensive than the plaster. Ceiling Figure
2.

Coffered Ceilings

Coffered ceilings are another

prominent feature in Queen Anne style
homes. Most ceilings that are coffered
are have wooden beams, however there
are some that are made from plaster. It
is quite often that one would see wood.
Most ceilings with plaster often had
medallions in the center of them and
were adorned with commonly themed
motifs. Wooden coffered ceilings were a
bit more common than plaster however.
Ceiling Figure 3.

Crown Molding
Crown molding is a very popular
feature of Queen Anne homes. Crown
molding can range from really simple
to really extravagant. Some of them
have little cornice like features that
basically create a stacked effect. Some
simple ones just have that stacked
effect. More intricate crown moldings
may have the stacked effect in
addition to a design with vines,
flowers, and acanthus motifs. In most
cases crown molding is often seen as
white, however these can be various
colors and some even in other
materials.

Tile Floors

Tiling is found in many Queen Anne

homes. Usually it is in the kitchen
and bathroom area, however it is also
seen in entry ways when first entering
the home. These tiled designs are
typically intricate and almost look
like works of art. Some would be
various geometric shapes creating
patterns while others actually drew a
picture. Some also had inlays of brass.
The material of the tile also ranged.
They were sometimes marble and
ceramic, unglazed, glazed, or
enameled. Flooring Figure 1.

Parquet Floors

Quite often in Queen Anne homes

the floor would be laid with wooden
planks in various designs and they
would be lighted with parquet
detailing. Parquet is very similar to
marquetry in technique. Also it
would be done with wood, usually
materials like maple, cherry, oak, ash,
and various others. Figure 2.

Linoleum Flooring

Floor cloths/Rugs

Queen Anne floors were usually

adorned with floor cloths. They
would be commonly placed in the
kitchen and halls. They would have
various patterns and designs
ranging from floral patterns to
vines and geometric shapes. Figure
3.

This was another popular style of

the Queen Anne homes. This
would some be in places like the
kitchen and the bathrooms. It was
introduced in 1860. There were
various designs such as floral
patterns, vines, acanthus, and etc.
Also linoleum cut outs was also
used like rugs, similar in concept.

Art Glass

The upper half of main doors often included art

glass, which involves colored or etched panes of
glass, often separated into panels or shapes by metal
(Queen Anne Home Style).Simple designs rather
than elaborate fans were used.
Door Figure 1.

Narrow Proportions
Due to narrow passages within the building,
doors were often narrower than they are today.
Larger entries were accomodated through the use of
narrow double doors rather than a wider single door
(Calloway 47).
Door Figure 2.

Transom
Paint or Stain

Dark earth-tones like sienna, red, forest green, burnt

yellow, and muddy brown were the most common
choices for door colors, though dark wood stains like
russet or cinnamon were also used on occasion
(Queen Anne Home Style).
Door Figure 3.

A rectangular window often divided into

distinct panes above the main entry door.
Transoms were popular a popular addition to a
Queen Anne entry; sidelights were uncommon,
and not associated with the style (Queen Anne
Home Style).

Double Hung

Leaded and colored glass design

which is known as a stain glass or
art glass windows. Used for the
glass of windows or doors.

Queen Anne style houses have tall, doublehung windows. The Queen Anne style are far
more likely to have the upper sash decorated
with art glass or with a decorative grille
pattern combined with colored glass.
Windows in Queen Anne style homes are
often paired or tripled and feature trim that
ranges from simple backband and cornices to
elaborately carved pediments

Window Figure 2.

Window Figure 1.

Window Treatments
Window treatments vary from simple
panels hanging from rings on plain rods
to layers of treatments typical of revival
styles. Lace curtains continue to be
fashionable (Harwood 257)

Window Figure 3.

Drapery
Drapery in Revival-style colors tend to be
more saturated or dark and rich.
Queen Anne colors lean toward those of
the Neoclassical (late 18th, early 19th
century) and as such may be saturated
lighter tints (Harwood 253)
This pair draperies are red or burgundy
(darker tones) made from velvet and it
also has Valances top. If drapery or
portires were made from heavy fabric it
was meant to keep the cold out not only
for dcor.

Fan/Shell Carvings
Fans, shells, and acanthus leaves were used

Walnut Wood

Along with cherry and maple, walnut was often

used for furniture during the Queen Anne period.
The period was sometimes called the age of the
walnut due to extreme popularity of the wood
during that time (Wiggins).Furniture Figure 3.

furniture. They were seen most often on
cabinet fronts and chair legs (Wiggins).

Finishes

Color often referred to as the mauve

decades, supporting colors such as
deep, old-looking red and faded rose
red or mauve, wine and dark violet,
taupe, and black. Also seen were sage,
dark olive, clear green, dark and
creamy gold, tobacco brown, rust, and
accents of royal blue, bright red and

Collectibles

Numerous brackets and shelves on

furniture, the mantel, and wall shelves
display blue and white porcelain and other
ceramics. Japanese fans and peacock
feathers may add an exotic touch. Stands
hold plants and flowers. Mirrors, paintings,
and prints may cover walls. (Harwood 264)
This cabinet is displaying the blue and
white porcelain dishes and vases.
Art Figure 3.

In this style era furniture was used

as art china cabinets, bookcases,
mirrors and etc. Marquetry, inlay,
veneering, and lacquerwork were
all skillfully applied to the
decorative furniture of Queen
Anne design. Typical motifs in this
ornamentation are scallop shells,
scrolls, Oriental figures, animals,
and plants.
The mirror in this photo is made
from maple and pine

Color, Style, Lamp Shades, Forms, Finish Materials

Lanterns

Traditional Queen Anne candle

sticks and table lighting are made
of metals such as silver, brass, and
gold. Forms are traditionally
bulbous, though sometimes a
turning form was used.

Materials were traditionally glass with

brass to hold the lantern top. They
use oil and they are traditionally
round and baluster; similar to what
would be seen in turning.

Chandeliers

Wall Sconces

Like most of the other lighting ,

chandeliers were made of brass.
Many chandeliers were made using
candles. Once electricity was
invented, many replicas used a
combination of oil and electricity.
Now many use solely electricity.

Sconces were originally

candlesticks mounted on the wall.
They held candles or a cup-like
shape filled with oil. The material
was usually brass, though they were
very polished. These sconces also
have turning details visible.

In the United States alone, the National Law Center on Homelessness and Poverty states that 3.5 million
people are likely to experience homelessness in a given year, due to addiction, mental illness, domestic violence, or

even lack of employment opportunities (What Is Transitional Housing). Transitional housing can help people in
or immediately following a crisis situation. The duration of the stay can range from a few days to a year or
more. Different parts of the country have various programs and organizations developed to assist homeless or
needy families in their communities. The central-southeastern region of the country - Georgia, Florida, Louisiana,
and Oklahoma - is the focus of the transitional housing studied in the following essay.
In the state of Georgia there are plenty of resources for homeless women and children. The YWCA is one
organization that feels strongly on helping women feel empowered by providing them employment, daily living
skills, job training, parenting skills and a lot more. The YWCA Transitional Housing Program is a six unit scattered
site program. The agency holds the leases with private landlords in the community, which are HUD funded and
offer housing to the single mothers with children under the age of 18 with the rent based upon 30% of their
income. For group educational meetings the YWCA has been allowed to use a local church with a kitchen area bimonthly. The main goal of the YWCA is to work with improving the womens income, credit, living situation and
achieve greater self-determination and self-sufficiency. Mary Jacobson Transitional housing case manager
YWCA
In Panama City, FL, Carla Hightower runs the Bethel Village Rescue Mission. It is a Christian-based
organization separated into rescue mission, counseling, short-term stays, and
long-term housing lasting up to one year. The goal of Bethel Village is to provide
a safe haven for women and their children that feels like a home, while
providing counseling to the women to help them develop a lifestyle that will allow them to support themselves and their children.
Single women are housed together in a suite-style dorm situation, with a community room that doubles as a
chapel, kitchen and dining area, and a classroom (Hightower). Women with children are offered small houses or
apartments, but are still required to visit the community room for counseling and classes. Each room or home is decorated to
feel more like a comfortable home than an institutional building, to provide a comfortable atmosphere.

The Baton Rouge and New Orleans area has various avenues for obtaining help. A great
example is the
Metropolitan Center for Women and Children, located in New Orleans, Louisiana. After visiting
their website, I learned that this organizations mission is To break the cycle of violence and aid
survivors of domestic
violence, sexual assault, and stalking through advocacy, intervention, empowerment, and
transformation (Raise a Glass). According to Jocelyn Pinkerton, the social worker I interviewed, the
program has a 24 hotline dedicated to responding to emergency situations and they will send a cab
to
pick individual up to come to the shelter. In the shelter a bed is offered for 6 months holding up to
20 residents. If a longer stay is needed, they can stay 1 year in a transitional house holding 2 units.
There are weekly house meetings and therapy typically done in the offices of the therapist. The
organization assist with finding permanent housing, counseling, court, all essentials such as food,
clothing, and toiletries, and house has kitchen, bathroom, dining space and individual bedrooms.
In the Oklahoma City area, there are no
shortages of homelessness from domestic violence,
drug use or other criminal activity. The YWCA of
Oklahoma City is an organization that helps women,
children, and men get a second chance to start over. The YWCA shelters and
transitional housing facilities are fully accommodated, offering necessary amenities such as activity areas, kitchen
and dining, and life training. To offer safety and security, the facilities are equipped with high end security systems and fully staffed. The
goal of the YWCA is to change the idea, or stereotype common of shelter life, and is designed to provide safety and healing in the dignified
way that creates a better pathway for victims escaping violence in their home- Kim Moyer Sr. Director of Public Relations &
Communications and Public Relations, YWCA.
In conclusion, while the transitional housing programs in Georgia, Florida, Louisiana, and Oklahoma have differences in their
methods of providing shelter and necessities to the homeless, they also share many similarities. Each state offers assistance for a range of
time, determined by both the facility and the needs of the family. And while some areas separate families depending on their reasons for
needing help, they are all working to lower the average number of families that experience true homelessness each year.

Concept Statement

The transitional house will be in the Queen Anne style, and

promote a cozy, comfortable atmosphere.
Curves and muted colors will create a safe haven, while
repetition will create a uniformity and cohesiveness. Wood
grains will be used throughout, offset in places with tile, adding a
natural, homey touch, while contrasting with the curves. The
addition of plants and style-specific lighting will tie in with
the Queen Anne scheme, while also adding the feeling of a
home.

Color Palette
Main Common Area Color
Palette

For the common areas, a royal blue,

monochromatic palette sets the tone
for an overall, calming effect as well as
a historically accurate choice for the
Queen Anne style.

Tenant Apartment Color Palette

While the common areas of the home consist of a monochromatic

color scheme, the tenant areas will be slightly more varied, earthier
mixture of tones. The addition of the other colors will add warmth
and a sense of comfort, complimenting the relaxing, cooler bluehued theme.

Material Maintenance

Shaw Hardwood Flooring

Routine Maintenance
1. Use a damp cloth to blot up spills as soon as they happen. Never allow liquids to stand on your floor.
2. For tough spots, such as oil, paint, markers, lipstick, ink, or tar, use 10% acetone/nail polish remover
on a clean white cloth, then wipe the area with a damp cloth to remove any remaining residue.
3. Sweep, dust, or vacuum the floor regularly with the hard floor attachment (not the beater bar) to
prevent accumulation of dirt and grit that can scratch or dull the floor finish.
4. Periodically clean the floor with cleaning products made specifically for pre-finished hardwood floor
care, such as Shaws R2X Hard Surface Cleaner.
5. Do not wash or wet mop the floor with soap, water, oil-soap detergent, or any other liquid cleaning
materials. This could cause swelling, warping, delamination, and joint-line separation, and void the
warranty.
6. Do not use steel wool, abrasive cleaners, or strong ammoniated or chlorinated type cleaners.
7. Do not use any type of buffing or polishing machine.
8. For spots such as candle wax or chewing gum, harden the spot with ice and then gently scrape with a
plastic scraper, such as a credit card. Be careful not to scratch the flooring surface. Wipe clean with a
damp cloth.
9. For tough stains, you may need to use a heavy-duty stain remover made specifically for hardwood
floors.
10. A more frequent dust-mopping or vacuuming schedule may be required in very sandy areas such as
a beach home.

Tile
Cleaning Grout: Acids should never be used for cleaning grout haze.
Use a damp sponge for the final cleaning and to smooth out the grout joints.
Routine Cleaning: Mop and sweep when needed.
Wall Wash to remove contaminants. Rinse thoroughly with water and allow to dry. Dull glossy areas by
light sanding. Remove sanding dust. Remove loose paint. Spot prime bare areas with primer specified
under UNPAINTED SURFACES. (Ralph Lauren Paint)

Justification
Color Is dominant in the design while texture and proportion is subdominant. The colors flow
harmoniously from the public common areas to the tenant private spaces. The colors are
genuine to the time period without being dark, still inviting and calming. The proportion of the
furniture and texture choices bring out the Queen Anne style the client loves. Having the
authentic furniture pieces bring out a feminine and elegant atmosphere to the entire space
The design reflects the culture and diversity because the women that will use the space are
coming from trouble past and low-income situations and the space will give them a sense of
comfort and home. The furniture pieces will be sturdy and can withhold everyday use so the
women do not have to worry about the children damaging furniture. The overall lighting and
finishes will bring the feeling of calm and relaxation to the space that all the women will be
happy to have.
With the universal design applications, codes and egress I just made sure the public/common
space followed ADA standards. Making sure everyone had what they needed in every space
public or apartment and it followed all the guidelines.

Reflection
I enjoyed this class overall. At first I thought it was going to be difficult
because we had to work as a team straight away and we were all so far
away, but it actually worked out great. I enjoyed the ladies I was paired
with and we worked great together. Working in a team will help us in the
future with our career because there will be a team to complete your
projects. In this class we also had to research quite a bit looking for
furniture styles and accessories that matched the time period, which was
good and bad. Researching alone took me a while to complete just
making sure everything I chose went with the main focus of the project,
to have a comfortable relaxing and inviting gathering space and
apartment.
