Circulation as rooms

Description

Pure corridors waste square footage. When possible, make circulation pass through expanded zones — gallery, mudroom, breakfast nook — that double as activity space.

Why this exists

A 4' wide corridor is purely circulation; a 6' wide gallery with a window seat is BOTH circulation and habitable space.
