Jakarta –

There are many reasons that become the basis for someone to choose a housing area related to location, model, size, facilities, and price. On the other hand, the COVID-19 pandemic that we have experienced since the beginning of 2020 has also brought many adaptations related to special placements that are placed with designs, features, and facilities to ensure all residents stay healthy.

The development of infrastructure and facilities in the Jakarta buffer zone has also made the Jabodetabek megapolitan area more mature and integrated. This has finally encouraged people’s interest in choosing landed houses in suburban areas in line with the development of easier accessibility and offering more affordable prices compared to houses in Jakarta.

The pandemic has also made public awareness of health continue to increase and this is what developers continue to realize in terms of design, features and facilities in their area. This is what

An Interior Design Expert Clarifies The One Spot You Shouldn’t Put A Laundry Room

Basements are also typically far from the main area, which can make it inconvenient to access the laundry room. You won’t be able to just pop in to check the progress, and laundry becomes more energy-consuming than it needs to be when you have to carry full laundry baskets up and down the house. This inconvenience especially poses problems for people with mobility issues — older family members in the household who want to do laundry may not be able to do it safely.

Space allocation is another thing to consider. Basements often serve as multi-purpose areas, such as storage, recreational spaces, or home offices. Using it as a laundry room may take up valuable space that could be better utilized for other purposes. Another problem you can face when you put your laundry room in the basement is if you ever need to take out or bring in a

As anyone who has gone through the process of searching for room colors will try, choosing the right color for a room can be a minefield with endless choices and subtle nuances to understand and overcome.

But along with what is the most stressful color?, we are also often asked ‘what is the most draining color? According to color psychologists, the most draining and fatiguing color is ‘bright yellow’.

However, decorating with yellow isn’t all bad, especially when used as an accent color at home. It has many positive connotations, too. Here, color psychologists, decorators, and experts reveal why bright yellow is the most draining color – and how to decorate with softer yellow in a more pleasing and less stimulating way by using the color wheel to create strong color combinations, using yellow as an accent shade, and what variations to use to create a scheme that won’t overwhelm.

Rethinking Lighting in Your Kitchen Design

Factors to Consider When Lighting Your Kitchen

When choosing kitchen lighting, appearance and style are very important. Your lighting should complement the overall kitchen design. Your lighting should also work for tasks like cooking and cleaning. After all, who wants to chop vegetables in the dark?

Consider for a moment, the commercial equivalent of kitchen lighting – there are codes and regulations around lighting areas where food is stored and prepared. The idea is to have brightness, light quality, and coverage standards that increase safety. Better visibility = better decisions and functionality in terms of food safety and occupational safety. Yes, many Michelin-starred restaurants have moody lighting around the dining table, but you can bet with 100% certainty that the food preparation and storage areas in the kitchen are brightly lit and up to code.

Foodie-level chefs tend to have the same expectations for residential kitchen preparation and storage areas.

The Beauty of a One-Bedroom House? No Room for Guests.

As the founders of Haver & Skolnick Architects, an upscale firm based in Roxbury, Conn., Charles M. Haver and Stewart R. Skolnick spent most of their days designing expansive country estates. But when it came time to design their own getaway, they wanted the exact opposite.

“We wanted something very small, with privacy and an ocean view,” said Mr. Oats, 64.

Specifically, they wanted a home that was just big enough for the two of them and their German shorthaired pointer, Keeper, after discovering that in the 1790s maintaining a house in Connecticut was a full-time job.

“In Roxbury, we have about 3,500 square feet in our home, and our offices are in an antique barn that’s an additional 3,500 square feet,” said Mr. Skolnick, 68. “So you have two guys rambling around in 7,000 square feet.”
