ADD

One of the reasons I'd prefer to have many small rooms connected mostly by hallways and sealed off by doors, is that I have attention deficit disorder. Many small rooms prevents clutter from one room spilling into another . . . with an open floor plan and lots of visibility from one room to another, there is more visual chaos and it's just exhausting for me. I derive focus and comfort from being in a limited, manageable space. Openness winds up feeling overwhelming for me. Sure I'd like a nice big expansive room or two in my dream house, but mostly I want to escape into smaller spaces. Even better if those rooms contain smaller cubbyholes, corners, and closets. Very nice.
