For typical Jepara carving, although it was expensive, teak is still to be excellent because it is more powerful, durable, and easy not porous.

Teak wood is good with quality teak super 1, 2, and 3. To get a good teak wood, old wood becomes important things worth noting. Is the wood including wood species because of old or young age will affect the appearance of wood furniture that is produced. The reason is, the older the wood going to get better quality. Meanwhile, to see if the wood is old or young can see the diameter of the tree circumference.

Another function is where we decorated, dressed up fancy terms.

To use the frame on the mirror, use a motif that is adjusted with the overall style we want to show, thus further strengthen the character of this style. If the number of mirrors that are available in some rooms quite a lot, would be the more choices and combinations of motifs that we can apply.

To enhance its use to make it more valuable, you should try to provide added value to glass that has been available around you. Do not be afraid to explore. If necessary, pour a little creativity you on all the mirrors in the house.

So that the value of an item that had been mediocre so unusual, quite a bit of creativity, then the objects become extraordinary. Either with roads or with accessory gives additional installation of an unusual way.

Many of us are happy to wear glasses full-length human to toe in the bedroom so you can see all of us. However, if we only wear it at any time, we can hang on a wall or panel is placed lying on the floor with a particular slope after a given frame. To get the maximum results, the laying of the mirror should be brought closer to the light source in order to obtain information or a sufficient amount of light.

Home Grown Concept

Category: home gardening plant @ 12:02 pm

Limited land to make some people think shelter mengonsep them with home grown style. What kind of details?

Home grown architecture means that the building could have evolved or have additional space. There are two kinds of development, ie grow upwards or sideways.

Growing up means, we will build another floor on top of existing buildings. Usually for a limited land area. There is no other way except to build upwards. While growing to the side, meaning the ground that we still have ‘rest’ to be built, there perluasan.  No addition to the above because our land is still quite large.

Usually the concept of home grown adjusted to the lifestyle of their owners. Typically also, they feel the need to prepare the home for the next stage. Suppose that because there are estimates of family members increases or limited land. The concept is basically whatever the house is to be comfortable and functional occupancy.

However, in terms of architecture, home grown require “handling” is different. For example, in terms of construction. This is important especially if the home conceptualized to grow upwards.

The structure is not only a foundation that must be prepared to receive the load of the whole building is planned to be developed. For example, if we plan to create two-storey house, but the new one first floor is level, then we create a foundation, columns, and beams that support for the two since we first floor building.

While for the house to grow sideways, it’s worth considering the space plan. At the core housing, the need for major ruangruang priority. Such as for the living room, family room, enough room, bathroom, and kitchen. Spatial layout also needs to be designed as such. For example planning where stairs, toilets, parks, reservoir, and so forth.

In this case, the initial design factors are critical. After a core house is built, then the next house development can be done. If the remaining land is still quite large, can be used temporarily for the park. Outside view is very important. Raul Renanda suggested that the budget for outside larger exterior.

Make your home exterior is simple, powerful, and does not leak. Someday when there are more funds, the elements of “decoration” can we fix the exterior and slicked up. Different home grown “half-finished house.”

In addition to its exterior, the interior also needs to be addressed. However, the principle is appropriate. The concept could follow the concept of growing interior exterior. In a sense, more flexible interior space, can be replaced, modified, and styled with ease. Interior interior home grown just like a regular house. Can be adjusted with the function of existing space. For example the living room filled with furniture for sitting, reading, and so forth.

Know Your Air Conditioning

Category: home gardening plant @ 11:54 am

Today air conditioning is no longer a luxury item. From the cheap to a lot of helpless small watt on the market.

This time we will not talk about the design of the house, but more directed at the question of how should the AC at home. Recently, some literature has ever made a topic often presents a high level of comfort at home. But, be careful! Not all the information referring to the tropical climate. Moreover, different temperatures in each city. Even so, whether or not using air conditioning machines (air conditioner / air conditioning) should be considered.

The main reason to use air conditioning, divided into four factors, namely temperature, pollution, space design, and poor circulation. Whose name is the temperature that’s not necessarily. Sometimes cold, sometimes hot. Hence, more air conditioning is needed. At least the hot air can be cold. Room temperature also became the most common reasons people use when her home was in hot climates.

Second, pollution can also be the right reasons. Not only air pollution, noise pollution can be addressed by AC. Air-conditioned room sealed indirectly restrain the voices that came out and walked into the room. For example, if you have a house adjacent to the factory, in addition to air pollution, the sound of factory machinery often disturbing the peace. Another example, if your home is close to the smell of river flow or the house on the edge of a noisy highway. AC could be the perfect solution to muffle.

Third, the design space could also lead occupants to use the AC. Suppose you were forced to create a room that has no sides in contact with the outside area, do not automatically have access to fresh air. Another example, if you have a basement at home, inevitably rely on the creation of conditioned air.

Fourth, poor circulation. Expensive land prices in Jakarta, forcing people who inhabit the dense residential area. The distances between houses very close together. Whether it sideways, forwards, or backwards. Worse yet, sometimes the only air circulation from the front of the house. Because it is necessary to expedite the circulation of conditioned air.

Watch Care

In order for air-conditioning equipment to produce the ideal temperature and humidity, would need maintenance. One of them with clean air filters on air conditioners are a vital component.

For home air conditioning, minor routine maintenance should be made between two weeks to a month. The duration of treatment time is very dependent on the location of the house. If the location is close to highways or in crowded environments, light treatment should be done every two weeks. Similarly, if the weather was very hot. Because usually, followed by a lot of dust.

When the house was in a relatively clean environment, routine maintenance can distance is longer, about a month. The complete treatment can be done in three or four months.

Major maintenance includes cleaning all indoor and outdoor components. Freonnya pressure checked at the same time to determine whether or not a leak. AC treatment becomes a very important part to fungi, viruses, or bacteria do not nest there.

For hygienic, air-conditioned room and equipment was also suggested leaving small vents for air circulation. The replacement air can minimize the spread of germs. However, should the air hole is not too large so that the AC did not work hard and wasteful of electricity.

Choosing Freon

Use air-conditioning refrigerant, or more commonly known as freon also must not be indiscriminate. To use AC house, which is widely used is Freon R22.

Freon charging should be done after the air filter cleaning and maintenance. Never use a special freon to a car at a local air conditioning because of the pressure difference can be an explosion.
