Open House

Asrul and Yossy want a house that seemed wide open. For that, they tried to eliminate barriers in their homes. Wall between the dining and living room removed, disturbing view of the ladder (which had been on near the family room) set aside to close the dining room.

The result, from the living room and dining room, they could see the sights of the blue swimming pool. In addition, the air of the open space (swimming pool) can flow into the house so they do not need to use air conditioning.
Child’s room, which was located on top moved downward, into the side room TV. The goal, to facilitate supervision. Relatively large size of the child’s room. Apparently, this was intentional. Later, this room will be “split” into two bedrooms.

As well as SPA
Their first home (in the back of the house now) used as SPA. Due to different access (SPA and the house facing the streets are different), Yossy family members do not feel bothered.
“Ease is a business at home I can still work without having to leave the family,” said Yossy close conversation.

The family room. If we look at the sofa and knick-knacks in the house, seen the dominance of red, green and orange. Apparently, these colors are the colors of joy Asrul and his wife.

Room to watch TV rather closed. Because this room has no windows, on top of it is made void. Thanks to the existence of this void, the air can flow so that the space does not feel stuffy. In addition it is also continuing void of sunlight from the upper chamber. As a result, the space becomes brighter.

Set the flatness of the Stairs

Leisure walking up the steps is determined from the slope. The size of the slope affected by the height and width of the stairs. The stairs are steep if the height of the stair. Similarly, if the width of the stairs that slope of the stair. The ideal height of steps ranging from 14 cm – 22 cm and width of stairs 20 cm – 33 cm.
To make it easier to calculate the height and width of the stairs right there is the formula 2a + b = 63 cm, where a is the height of the steps and b is the width of the stairs.
Steep stairs when 2a + b + b> 65 cm. While the sloping stairs if 2a + b <60.
Actually, the ladder has the advantage that it saves steep stairwell. But from the side away from the expected comfort. When climbing the stairs, the foot was sore because the steps are too high. In addition to discomfort, such as the stairs are dangerous for small children and the elderly.

Room with a ladder to adjust the length of the ladder. If the form of a straight ladder is not possible with a certain length of the ladder can be shaped L.
Ramps of stairs that provide comfort. However, the staircase is required is also not small.

The word banister (also bannister) refers to the balusters of a stairway. However, the term banister implies a more modern, narrower support to a handrail. Baluster: The thin vertical spindles that hold up the handrail. These are generally found along the staircase, not at the top or bottom. Balustrade can be used for both exterior and interior. Stone balustrade makes the house and building grand and classical in combination with stone.

Elements of a safety handrail and baluster is made of hollow steel and wood. Advantages to using this material the ladder becomes visible “light” and the manufacturing process is not too complicated.

That child do not fall off the fence or down stairs alone without supervision then at the end of the ladder should be given whenever the security fence could be closed and locked.

Ladder is an element that serves as a pedestal to pedestal up and down or climb. Because the function is to step on the stair design must be made with a strong structure and material. In addition, the design of the stairs must be safe for all residents.
Safety, strength, and comfort is a factor that must be considered when making the stairs at home. To meet these three elements, at least as steps of the staircase had to adjust to the available and family members who use it every day.

Four Forms of Domestic

In general there are four forms of the stairs, straight stairs, spiral staircase, staircase shape “U”, and the staircase form “L”. Straight stairs is a stair, ladder piled on top of the other steps and straight with no elbows. These steps form suitable if space is wide staircase. Why is that? if the difference in height of the floor to get the convenience of the ladder length. With the length of the staircase steps that needed to be broad. Unless steps are made so that the stairs are steep short.
While the spiral staircase is a staircase, ladder play on the shaft / pole / column. Rungs attached to and there are bound to the column in the middle of the circle stairs. In terms of comfort, less visible forms of this ladder because when up or down the stairs must be spinning. But in terms of efficiency, highly efficient form of a spiral staircase staircase. The need for this form of the staircase to suit the diameter of the circular staircase.
For the other two, ladder, ladder “L” and “U” shape is basically almost the same, namely to have curves. Both forms are usually placed adjacent to the wall and has a landing. But there are also some who do not have the landing. Function of the landing is the place to turn and retreat when climbing the stairs.

Various design

Of the four basic shapes, the design of modified ladder with varying structures and materials. To modify the structure, many who make the stairs as if flying. Rungs riveted only one beam that extends perpendicular to the steps.
In addition, to show the impression of flying there are other ways such as by using a cantilever structure of the system. Stairs only pinned or propped on the wall. Formerly, the system structure is used to form a spiral staircase. But now the structure of the system is also used in the form of a straight ladder or turn.
Playing with a variety of stair design in addition to the material structure can also be used. Material that is often used to make the stairs are wood, concrete, and steel. Each material has characteristics that affect the detailed steps.
For example, the detail will vary with the wooden stairs of concrete and glass staircase. One of the distinguishing details are on the connection. Connection to the stairs of concrete is generally not visible because the connections are casted together and reinforced with a steel reinforcement.
While on a steel ladder, ladder joints between elements using welding. This is not because the material used steel. Except, the material is mixed with other materials such as wood.

Must Stay Safe

Although the design of the stairs there are many, both in terms of material and form, should have to pay attention to the design of the ladder in terms of comfort and safety. The design should be tailored to the broad steps of the staircase is provided. In addition to the size of the staircase, the other thing to consider is the safety and convenience of users.
For example, the width of the steps must be passed at least two people or less than 1 m wide. In addition, the flatness of the ladder must also be considered.

For example, strawberries and apples which are plant cold regions, it would be difficult even may not bare fruit when grown in the lowlands.
Seed selection is equally important. Good seeds will necessarily result in plant growth and development of thumb-both in quality and quantity. It is advisable to choose a clear fruit seed origin. That is, the plant breeder seed purchased from a reliable.

Common practice to paint the walls a touch of sweet in the house. If the wall is not painted, it looks like unfinished house though other parts are finished.
The process of painting the wall is similar to using powder. Before starting the process, the skin needs to be cleaned, dried until completely dry, the spots are closed, and then given a foundation, a new powder itself is applied or affixed. If steps are not correct, the powder does not look flat, easy to wear off, and in the end face so it does not look pretty. So is the wall.

How To Paint a New Wall

If we just build a house then we will be faced with the task of painting the new wall. Absolute requirement to paint the new wall is the wall must be perfectly dry; he had given the age of 28 days from the cement plaster. Why have 28 days? Because in this age, the wall is considered to be dry inside and out.
Do not just rely on touching or vision. It could be the wall was dry when we touch, when in fact it has not been part were really dry. If we force it to paint on these conditions, the consequences will be felt later. After the house so full of furniture, decorative framed, spots appeared on the wall. That happens because the water content contained in the wall is slowly seeping out.
To be accurate, to find a wall of humidity can be used a tool called potentiometer (moisture meter). When the measurement results showed a reading below 18%, meaning that the walls ready to be painted. In addition to moisture content, alkaline levels is also noteworthy. When the pH showed a 7-9, it also means that the wall ready to be painted.
Wall should also be clean. Therefore, before the process of painting, wall brushed or sanded and washed clean. Obviously washing was done after the drywall is complete (after 28 days).

How To Paint a Old Walls

Painting the walls a long time will we need when we do renovations. To perform this process, to consider the condition of the old paint, are still quite a good or a lot of peeling or bubbling. If still good, we just need to sand the walls and wash it thoroughly. But when a lot of peeling or bubbling, then the wall must first be released from old paint.
Way is to do freeing up all the old paint peeling. After that, the walls also need to be brushed or sanded and washed thoroughly.
If there is a problem on a long wall, you should fix first. For example, on the old walls, no paint is peeling or bubbling with humidity, it is necessary to first look for the cause. Could be, the cause is seepage of water from a leaking pipe. When this happens, the problem should be solved first pipe. If not, it’s useless we repainted the walls, because the problem will come back again.
For the cracked walls, can be “patched” with putty, do not forget, after caulking, so that the wall should be sanded smooth. After following all the problems solved, we just start painting.

How To Paint Two Layer

Application itself can be done using a paint roller or brush. Typically, for the application of paint in a room done using a roller to paint all the walls coated, then parts of the angle between the walls and ceilings or between walls and floors were painted using a brush.
Cat will shut down completely when applied 2-3 layers. But, keep in mind, before applying a first coat of paint, primer coating (if any), must be completely dry. Similarly, before swiping second coat of paint, paint the first layer must also have really dry.

This is important, because children often accidentally put his fingers into his mouth after touching the wall.
In addition to health problems, the quality of paint is also noteworthy. In the market there are various brands of paint; a cheap there, too much expensive. Typically, paint with a higher price to have better quality. Better color, more even appearance, anti fungal, easy to clean, and others.
The selection of paint should also be based on which the wall to be painted. Whether interior or exterior walls. Exterior paint is relatively more expensive, but has better quality. If we use an interior paint for the exterior, paint age usually become shorter, so we should be more frequent repainting. In addition, exterior paints are usually equipped with materials that make it resistant to mold and mildew.
