Best Answer

Because its easier to find the area of a rectangle.

It's also because maybe the recangle of a room is the cheapest way.

Drywall (Sheetrock) is in long straight sheets and has to be carefully broken to fit

around corners, and then back-filled with joint compound to cover the cracks/gaps.

Also, it makes it a lot tougher from the architect, to the house framer, to the drywaller

to the end user to figure out to to use the curved wall (can't hang a picture on it,

can't throw a couch up against it, etc... So it's normally why you see them only

in high-priced homes (Monticello) and entryways (double-curved staircase to the

lobby, etc.)

Dont you think color lights are harmful for our eyes People using color lights in homes or in their rooms Why shouldnt manufacturers stop making such lights which are harmful for humans?

Yes the usage of color lights can affect our eye sight, so it is not recommendable to use color light in rooms especially in study rooms. It also affects our sleeps. The manufacturers produce color lights because though it cant be used at homes, it is used in parties, bars outdoors etc.

What does a Jewish home have in it?

Jewish homes have the same things normal homes have in them. Dens, dining rooms, bedrooms and kitchens. The only difference would be mezuzahs (small cases with the "Hear, O' Israel" prayer scrolls rolled up inside them that you nail to the thresh hold of every doorway). That's all I can really think of.
