"PEOPLE DON'T buy a house or furniture often enough to know how to go about it. They get so much advice they are dizzy," re- ports Dan Cooper, well-known de- signer of home furnishings. Perhaps it would be a good idea to keep these suggestions in mind if ever faced with the problem of planning a house: Lots of parties demand a living} room that encourages sociability, with furniture arranged to accom- modate groups of people; plenty of coffee tables, serving tables, and such. THE "HERMIT" type, who en- joys reading and music will plan in a different manner. The most comfortable chair and the best light will be conveniently situated near the bookshelves for pleasant browsing. Windows and artificial light- ing will be arranged to give the best light for the piano. No particular room will be set aside for dining with meals served informally in the living room or kitchen. The extra space can be used for a library or music room.
