And also diseases caused by animals are not invited residents kitchen, such as rats, cockroaches, ants and flies.

3 things that must be considered in food storage.

1. Temperature.

Each of these types of foods have different storage temperature requirements vary. Milk should be stored in refrigerator-temperature 1-3 degrees Celsius. Eggs at a temperature of 0.5 - 2 degrees centigrade. Vegetables and fresh fruit at a temperature of 0.5 - 2.5 degrees Celsius. Dry food ingredients, such as rice and flour would be optimal at temperatures 10-22 degrees Celsius. And frozen foods should always be at a temperature of 0 degrees Celsius.

The temperature of the sodium absorption ratio may cause changes in color, shape, taste, smell, and nutrients in food. Microorganisms contained in foodstuffs growth inhibited by cold temperatures. Once in the room temperature, microorganisms will grow, taking nutrients, and produce acids. That's why foods become damaged and unfit for consumption.

2. Humidity.

Excess water content in air (> 60%) can cause various reactions. Tin packaging can cause rusting and leaking cans and their contents destroyed. In his own food material, moisture causing chemical reactions that change the taste of food. While nature humid conditions, mold will grow. Storage areas have less than 15% humidity with adequate air ventilation.

3. Packaging.

To maintain quality, food should be stored in food-grade containers Uncategorized. That is, packaging sodium absorption ratio secrete substances that affect the food and chemicals harmful to health. Generally, manufacturers of labeling and food-grade or not.

Curtain, prevent glare, guard privacy

In order to maintain the privacy and comfort, sometimes a window needs to be "clothing". This is where the window plays an important role to support all the different activities in the room.

Moreover the model of a modern house which is the current trend, also made large windows form with a minimalist model. The existence of a window becomes very important to prevent glare in the daytime or at night to maintain privacy.

There had always been.

Closing the windows had been known for centuries in various human civilizations. Wanderer in the desert for example, using a damp cloth to protect the window in which they shelter. This fabric also serves to lower the room temperature as a function of the modern air conditioner.

Different again with the ancient Egyptians, they have a concept of their own-made window coverings. They make organized grass-stranded so that no one could peek into the house through their window.

On the other hand, the ancient Chinese used bamboo for the same function. Until now, bamboo is still used as window coverings, especially in Asian countries.

Venetian blinds.

Along with the times, modern window coverings which began to appear, one of the most popular are the venetian blinds, which are found in Persia. The merchants carry this type of window coverings to Venice and Paris. Venetian blinds become very well known and used in all types of buildings, to be a lot of background on the many historic paintings.

Until now, venetian blinds are also called horizontal blinds, still widely used and have various technological developments that will be explained further. In Indonesia, we call this the window coverings with curtains or draperies term.

Home Theatre, Yummy movie at home

Peeling a home theater.

Acoustics home theater system different from the music studio and a karaoke room. Music studios prefer the acoustic sound proof and impermeable. Proofed karaoke room acoustics requires more modest, while having a home theater sound proofing properties that rely on acoustics are good, but preferred not impermeable.

There are 2 values acoustics that need attention, namely the value of the insulation and absorbency. To produce a space that really tight, the space must be zero.

Impermeable material.

Quality resistant and absorbent material depends on the constituent. These materials are sold in the market, such as mineral fiber acoustic, rock wall, carpet, fabric, and the absorber panel. Gyproc issued three types of gypsum panels are able to muffle the sound, namely: Casoprano, Celotex, and gyprone as a superior product. Although all three have a damping function, the type most recommended Gyptone as damping panel at home theater.

In principle assembly, both the dining and the ceiling must be given material that can withstand the sound in advance, such as the materials mentioned above. For finishing, could use the element of wood, cloth, Oscar material, and so on. One thing that is unique, in addition to being the type of sound absorption gyptone because it has a tissue-like layers, this material can be exposed to replace wood and fabric finishing, because it has aesthetic value.

Golden ratio.

Talk a lot about the elements of proof, absorbency, to finish, maybe the question arises, shapes and sizes are ideal for home theater like what? Actually there is no standard measure of shape, but are easily understood and should be considered for the sake of convenience, both audio or visual are the golden ratio.

Golden Ratio is an ideal ratio between the length, width, and height of a room. Ideal comparison is 8, 5, 3. With this condition you can feel comfortable, both in terms of distance to the screen the eyes and ears to the speakers. There is also a record, home theater equipment should be placed away from the spaces affected by the privacy-enabled sound propagation. If possible, place the equipment near the courtyard outside or basement.

Note also the audio visual devices.

In the space for home theater, what is the heart thing? Audiovisual equipment. This is where the important role that equipment, must be able to vibrate the temptation to pump the blood flow quickly from the heart through veins. In essence, should be able to create an atmosphere like watching at the theater for (+ -) $ 2 for standard, or $ 5 for premium.

Talk audiovisual equipment, in addition to wearing giant screen, can also use the LCD TV or LCD TV LED uproar recently marketed as energy efficient.

It should be noted, too, laying on your home theater speakers. In general there are two types, namely: 5 or 7 point 1 point 1. The former means five speakers plus a subwoofer. The second means 7 speakers and 1 subwoofer. Home theater speakers should be placed facing (front and back of the room), while the subwoofer in the middle of the room.

Although considered technically complicated, but no more precise mathematical calculation of the golden ratio. Comparison of the volume of space with dim space power capabilities should be aligned. The louder the sound from the sound source, then the required space is increasingly tight, which can reach 90% durability of the average loudness, ie the range of 80-120 dB.

Creating a family room feel warmer

Color, lighting, the furniture is 3 factors to consider to make the family room look warm.

Family room is a favorite room, gathering place for family members. As a favorite room, the space must be arranged to provide a sense of comfort and fun. According to Ir. Rio Chrisidan, architects and interior designers from the design consultant firm idea, Jakarta, arranging the family room should pay attention to nuance and atmosphere that will be raised. In general, the feel you want in the living room is a warm impression.

With warmth, family room will be seen not as an intermediary space before entering the room or the sitting room only, but could be seen as a space for togetherness and familiarizing members of the family.

To make the room seem warm family always there are some elements that play an active role. Some elements are color, lighting, furniture.

Games color and light.

All the elements that exist in the family room should use colors that fall into the category of warm colors, such as: red, yellow, orange. Brown also brings a warm impression.

Warm colors are also applied to the color of the walls, panels, and interior elements such as rugs and pillows.

Apart from the color, warmth can also be transmitted through the arrangement of lights and light. In general, the arrangement of the lights in the living room can be more flexible. This recall occurred in the family room a variety of activities, ranging from reading, watching television, and converse. All these activities require different lighting.

Lighting arrangement could form the local lighting or task lighting that comes from sitting lamps, floor lamps, decorative lights, and floodlights.

Use all of these lights will make all the warm atmosphere.

Just simply turn on the lights for one activity, another room will feel. Warmth will increase when all the lights using a dimmer. The atmosphere is warm room can be arranged with the intensity of light that is different.

Comfortable chair.

If you decide to choose a chair as a seat cover in the living room, make sure the seats are comfortable. Seats are widely used in the family room is a sofa.

If there is a TV in the living room, put the sofa right in front of the TV. This can be confirmed, that the living room serves as a space to watch TV together. To give a sense of comfort watching, do not put sofas next to the TV.

With a simple arrangement, and pay attention to three of the above factors, look at the family room you've designed. Family room looks warmer so that the activities together with family members will feel comfortable.

Storage is a necessary element in the family room. You can create storage on the wall, so saving space.

Tips.

Do not put a sculpture or artwork in a large size so the room feels "heavy". Balance in size to the size of the existing space.

How to put the TV?

If you have TV's that I want to put a TV family room, put the TV in a cozy corner of the room to see it. Do not place the TV near the window because you will feel uncomfortable with the reflection of the sun's glare on the TV screen. Also adjust the size of the TV with the size of the room so you feel comfortable when watching TV.

With so many kinds of colors that exist in the living room sofa can become a focal point.

Get around the rigidity of design and create the comforts of home with a garden

Not only add to the beauty and coolness, the park can be a solution to get around the stiffness design and create comfort for the home environment.

Hoke house has a double advantage. First, we can have access to the pages of the two sides of the house. Second, the location of the main door can be set as needed.

Like this house. His position was in the corner and has access from the front and left the building. The home environment is pretty solid on the front and left face to face with a neighbor's house. To that end, the homeowner feels the need to bring the fence. In addition to providing territorial boundary, the fence also serves as a protector of privacy for the occupants of the house.

But the presence of the fence often creates the impression of rigid, isolated, and not natural. So, no fence massive presented here, to maintain the interaction between home environment. To disguise the border, park at present on the front page. In addition to providing the beauty of the view, either from outside or from within the home, this park plays an important role for creating a comfortable environment.

Customize your design.

Land that was not too extensive gardens tricked by presenting a practical, not too dense, but still gives freshness thanks to the green. Leaving enough open area in the middle, this area is treated with a natural touch and environmentally friendly. Used as a ground cover of grass, brush and coral printed for circulation path.

In addition to a fresh, neat impression I also preferred here. The species is restricted to not create the impression of less crowded and beautiful.

Circulation path from left home for immediate access to the terrace and main door.

Playing texture.

Not much color games here. The beauty of the game highlighted the park more shades of green, shades of heights, textures and elements of the game that used the park. This creates a simple yet harmonious appearance.

Placement and combination of elements is done by fitting the park. Plants that have a special appeal, focused on a particular point only to further highlight its appeal. The composition of the plant canopy note, in order to make the park more lively. Use a few potted plants create a harmonious style and create a garden does not look monotonous. 

The main door is hidden, not visible from the gate.

Choice of plants.

For the sake of practicality, the character was chosen plants that are not troublesome treatments.

To soften the iron fence, is used shrubs were planted in a row. Given the land that is not too broad, protective plants selected is not too high (less than 6 m). some plants are presented to protect the parks from excessive sunlight. For that, choose plants that have a header wide enough.

In order to save maintenance time, selected plant hardiness. That is, these plants withstand all weather (heat or rain) and remain fertile, though not in intensive care.

Panel Recycling

A variety of products in carton packaging, from milk, until the juices, producing very large volumes of waste.
Packaging used can be processed into a multifunctional building materials.

Separate the layers.
From landfills, Tetra Pak carton packaging collected. Tetra Pak cartons consisted of 75% cardboard, aluminum and 25% polyethylene, separated on the constituent materials.
Layer of cardboard is sent to paper mills, while a layer of aluminum and polyethylene is processed. Mixture of both materials is then destroyed by machines into small pieces and then heated (200-2550 degrees Celsius) and pressed into a sheet panel.
No need for glue to bring together the pieces. This is because the protection of polyethylene (PE) is a type of plastic will melt and become adhesive. It also makes a panel called polyboard and polyroof be strong and supple.
Indeed, aluminum and polyethylene layers on the packaging does not decompose. Precisely because of that, how this material can be fully utilized by other functions, namely as building materials. When the production process, as for the rest of the pieces that can be blended back into a new sheet panels.

Installation is easy.
The panel that produced the company in Indonesia is made up of 2 models. The first is polyboard, a 6-14 mm thick flat panels, which can serve as wall panels, partitions, or ceilings.
The second is called polyroof, a corrugated sheet that serves as a roof. There are two types of waves, big and small. Than asbestos sheets, polyroof has a lighter weight. The comparison, of the same size, asbestos sheets weighing 11 kg, while polyroof only 5-6 kg.
Panels are in pairs by way of screwed or nailed to a wooden or metal frame, just like the installation of asbestos or gypsum. Because the material is flexible, as he nailed not susceptible to rupture. Even this panel can be connected by cement, among others, in relation roof (not edges). If necessary cut, simply use a chainsaw.
The display of polyroof and polyboard panel is colored gray with tiny granules of silvery aluminum layer of epidermis are destroyed. If you want different colors, these panels can be painted. For maximum results, use oil paints.

Changing perceptions.
As a roofing material, the panel recycled cardboard packaging is ideal to use in the tropics. The content of aluminum in it can reflect the heat so as to reduce the heat of 20-40%. In addition, this material can also muffle the sound, so the sound of rain that falls I roof can be reduced.
In a region prone to earthquakes, lightweight material is advantageous because the risk of injury can be reduced. In eastern Belitung (Indonesia) has built homes of fishermen polyboard material. During a fire, non-flammable material that makes the occupants had escaped.
But there are still a tough task to be performed, namely changing the public perception of the material from recycled waste. According to the study, in Brazil was 30-year project from waste-packaging material were developed.

Created finished furniture.
Not only the building materials, polyboard can also be used as raw materials of furniture. Starting from table to kitchen set, made from polyboard. In appearance, polyboard glance looks like granite, thanks to the aluminum grains.

Dress up and Renovaton the mosque in homework

Design ideas.
Areas set aside for the mosque in this house is quite spacious, which measures 3 x 4 m and located in strategic places (not in the corner). Take advantage of the space is as good as possible is a major step that deserves attention. The resulting design should not only have the value of the function, but also full of beauty. In terms of concept, contemporary modern options will be retained to produce a common thread with the interior design of other rooms.

Initial conditions, no design or interesting elements in the room mosque. Only there is a shelf for storing books combined with a prayer tool.

Areas of the wall which together with the entrance into the mosque demolished and removed. The interface is also changed. The goal made the mosque as a beautifying element in the display space. To keep the private properties, design elements presented in the form of gates and the elevation of the floor of the mosque about 15 cm.

Books and storage devices are put in a prayer closet in the back entrance. The shelves are visible from inside the mosque, but not visible from outside the mosque.
