Comfort in a Small Apartment

Mission: Organization : Episode MSO-213 -- More Projects »
David Addams, his two children, Tariq and Jelani, and Zanetta Addams-Pilgrim and David's son Khalil have found that with their busy schedules and active lives, they've ended up with one messy New York City apartment.

Zanetta's bike, Khalil's toys, the family bills, videos, CDs and shoes are just a few of the items cluttering their living and dining rooms. They have decided to hire professional organizer Cindy Arlinsky to help turn their mess into comfortable, organized rooms.

This blended family of five's small apartment is bursting at the seams.

At 17 feet long and 10 feet wide, the living room is so cluttered it's virtually nonfunctional.

Because the apartment is so small, most rooms have a dual purpose, including this dining room/office area. It's just 12 feet long and 10 feet wide.

Within that area is this bookshelf, which is filled to capacity. Imagine what happens when a family member removes something from it!

The office area is more of the same--nearly every inch is covered in clutter. Just clearing off a space to work is a major challenge.

Zanetta's bike in the dining/office area has become quite a sore subject with husband David, but she insists there's nowhere else to put it.
