Once the adjustments are also other garden architecture concept which must be harmonized with the lighting design.

For lighting depends entirely on your taste. Want to bring an atmosphere of bright or dim. Whatever the choice, most of the lighting in the park should be evenly distributed so as not impressed slums because part of the dark.

Tiny lights or accent lights linear (hidden) in the gap pergola or fence can give effect to the room lighting level should be adjusted to the destination.

If the space below pergolaingindijadikantempatsantai and romantic, place a few lights, linear lights dim. Conversely, if the purpose is to place a more formal, the lighting should be bright.

If there is a fish pond in the park or pool, the presence of any lamp with a higher amount shall be presented. For nighttime, the lighting is very important because it will give ‘soul’ in the pond environment.

Vase as an accessory in nearly every home. The model also continues to follow the trend. Translucent or transparent, even from the crystal was more and more popular.

Bored stiff with the ceramic model, why you do not glance at the glass vase? Vases of this type are not merely high slender crystal with many profiles. But has evolved into many models and colors.

Many are choosing glass vase, particularly those requiring the element of color, yet not too heavy.

Use ceramic vase does give color, but more solid. And usually also create an impression of an oriental ethnicity. Vases of this type tend to be less suitable for house minimalist model. While for the house of a certain model of classical, the choice of a crystal vase is more appropriate. Crystal from Czechoslovakia said superior. Number one Czech-made crystal. For that, the price is too special.

Special price commensurate with quality crystal. For a vase measuring 30 cm, crystal cutting techniques are taken accurately to get the perfect texture and motif.

Appears an opinion that glass vase can give the impression widely in the home. The opinion was not entirely correct. But give the impression lighter. Glass material, especially the nodes can be softened.

Use a vase now not merely as a place to lay flowers. The more creative, more and more that can be applied. Like putting dry twigs in the sand, filled with colorful hydrogel, making rainbows in the newfangled convex vase, or just leave blank.

Options form vase kinds, without any interest we can expose any of its forms.

Colored vase, such as magenta, fuschia, and blue, by itself is already pretty small in size dipajang.Jika, vases of different colors can be arranged in rows and storied.

In addition to glass, there’s a kind of material is acrylic. The form also with the existence of clear synthetic plastic. Most models for the solid square and less water. Mengakalinya, acrylic boxes can be filled with sand or gravel that has been colored.

Crystal vase can look pretty with extra touches. Like a big ribbon wrapped cloth, the easiest thing done to change the face of the old vase. Keep in mind, choose a matching color ribbon with flowers or any color to an empty vase.

Another trick is to wrap wire vases with mosquitoes. In order to look more artistic, the wire is colored with spray paint. Or if there is a piece of colored cloth or paper, can also be used as a wrapper. Crystal vase also changed the face instantly.

Beautiful vase can be placed anywhere. For small vase with fresh flowers, can be placed on the coffee table or preparing a special table standing in the corner. Island table in the kitchen area was suitable to be placed clear vase. While for large vase, no harm is placed in the larger table as a dining table.

Do not be put on the floor because the vulnerable. Especially if there are small children at home. For security purposes, should be placed out of reach of children.

Unique and interesting design would be an attraction. Similarly, when you select a railing on the stairs in the residence. How can it be like?

The presence of stairs in a room should be mutually supportive. Therefore, the appearance of the ladder should be harmonious with the room conditions. Sometimes the steps are made simply to serve the traffic up and down. Though, in fact many possible forms that can be created from a ladder, in addition to board and alight.

Ladder structure composed of parts mutually support one another. So the presence of a single element with other elements interrelate. Ladder structure of the system itself consists of a vertical stairs (riser) to the horizontal ladder footing (tread), the mother who holds the ladder rung (string), the main mast (newel), railing (handrail), and the banister (baluster). Which will be discussed in this paper are railing about it. Currently staircase railing material is very diverse, from metal, wood, concrete to glass. The application which is in accordance with the interior design is also very decisive beauty of this staircase railing. For example for a minimalist home, suitable material is metal, concrete, or glass.

But that does not mean these elements can not be used in other interior design concepts, but for a minimalist home is generally used material.

For the minimalist concept of the house, the keys do not get too much use of the profile or ornaments that can actually eliminate the impression minimalisnya. Design used could wear lines firmly. For example the use of metallic materials. Messing-shaped construction is large or small, no problem.

Apart from that profile a bit, the quantity of iron density buffer should also be undertaken. Not too much, but also not too tenuous, at least smaller than the size of a small child’s body.

The selected design can be vertical and horizontal lines only, a simple, but still nice when viewed. Colors used are the basic colors like black and its derivatives. But if you want a little more modern, could use the silver color. Use stainless steel are also good, chromium or the like, so its modern impression so strong.

If you want to use a glass material, we recommend using fiberglass because it is more secure. But if the elements of his view is less satisfactory, Nirwono also suggested the use of tempered glass that will not be in pieces if broken.

Then an acrylic material that is much more secure, it’s just that this material is more expensive than ordinary glass. The drawback, when used in an annual period, kilapnya power will be reduced. Could be caused by small strokes that arise when cleaned with a cloth.

Another case if the concrete elements which want to use. Even though this element is more suitable for use in the garden, modern minimalist style does not limit it. Most importantly, the cavity should be made more so not too much pressure on the hosts and restrict the view.

Concrete elements should only be used as supplementary materials, such as the construction of a buffer and so forth.

For a tropical-style house, railing appropriate steps are wooden models. Metal and concrete elements may also be used, provided that no glass. Dominasikan important element of wood that feels more natural impression. Wood can be made with any model because the key concept is the material used tropics. Additions to plant on staircase railing can create a unique impression. For example plants in small pots hanging, or if you want more interesting, use the vines (either artificial or real) in the circular staircase railing. Secured tropical elements will be more condensed.

In essence, the game on the railing stairs tropical plants will reinforce the impression of nature in your home. Do not hesitate to give a profile of his carvings on the railing, as long as not too much. Profile engraving that many would be more appropriate in ethnic-style staircase railing. Course materials to be used without other material timber. Do not forget to coat the wood so that durable and not fragile.

The profile is also used in many classical concepts, it’s just that the material used is metal. Options profile is also very much, adjust to your taste. Try carving a profile in accordance with the model in other places, such as chandeliers near the railing and so forth.
