Postmodern House Design Montreal U-House

admin — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 03:29:46 +0000

Located at the extreme edge of a coveted Montreal neighbourhood, the design of the U House responds to a harsh urban context, respectfully shutting out the outside world by concentrating services around the periphery.

Space along the inside of the U is thus liberated and attention is focused towards the inner core. Constructed with the precision of fine cabinetry, the articulated panels of wood, glass and steel that line the courtyard open and close to invite the outside in and the inside out with seasonal regularity.

A large Sunburst Honey Locust was planted the day after the foundations were poured to provide shade to the largely fenestrated south facing façade during the hot summer months. Its acid yellow foliage in early spring inspired the accent color found throughout the interior.

house of night

The U-House was designed by architect Natalie Dionne to house both the family residence and her office space. Along with her partner, who works in cinema, she drew plans and began construction in 2003. Originally, the couple bought a small industrial building and a rare vacant lot adjacent to it. The U plan was achieved by adding two additions to the original building, one at each end of the vacant lot.

Postmodern houses have many of these features:
Sense of “anything goes”: Forms filled with humor, irony, ambiguity, contradiction
Juxtaposition of styles: Blend of traditional, contemporary, and newly-invented forms
Exaggerated or abstract traditional detailing
Materials or decorations drawn from far away sources

Luxury Home Design：Gold, purple and red combination.

Everyone dreams of the good life. A life where you can send all your kids to college, live in the house of your dreams and own the luxury properties of your choice.

Luxury home decoration aims at providing a home which reflects the lifestyle of the owner where nothing is lacking and comfort always comes before cost.

When you’re choosing a firm for luxury home interior design, your first decision will be your definition of “luxury.” Some define “luxury home interior design” as exquisite workmanship; others think of it as including fine antiques; and there’s a segment that thinks of luxury in terms of customizing for their every whim.

Stylish and beautiful accessories enhance outlook of your living room interior. They should match up with the colors used in your living room. Various accessories such as gorgeous chandeliers, vibrant rugs, beautiful aquarium, exciting cushion covers, attractive curtains, lighted lamps, decorative plant stands etc give a warm and inviting feeling to your living room. They modify the look of living room furniture.

Comfortable Interior Color Scheme: Pink Decorating

admin — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 15:01:39 +0000

Pink is the most sweet color, and the princess color, If you like pink, you’re seeking to be more inventive. New possibilities flood your mind. By constantly examining possible practical applications, you create new things, new ideas. Using this purple-pink shade in room design is empowering. You and others will become more determined and self-constructive in a lavender pink office or library. Because it invites warm, exciting conversations, it’s perfect for dining or living rooms. Guests will feel welcomed.

Below is one of my most favorite color schemes for country style interior.

Decorate with Distinction
A nailhead chair, when covered in an inspiring rose-print polished cotton, becomes a conversation piece. Mirrored furnishings add luxe without crowding the room.

China Cabinet
Damask-patterned wall covering papers the back of this English-inspired cabinet, causing both the white trim and the pottery to positively pop.

Shell Pink Chaise
Natural elements, apparel-like fabrics, linen, and modern touches all help to communicate the power of pink.

Fuchsia Candlesticks
Candlesticks gain instant stardom when featured in fuchsia, putting an eye-opening twist on an orderly composition.

Wing Chair
A boudoir sham adds unusual luxury to a simple chair.

Fabric Choices
Ticking and broader stripes project cottage appeal when used on upholstery, slipcovers, or window treatments. Mixing in a vintage-inspired pattern keeps the effect relaxed.

Pink Living Room
This thoughtfully composed yet comfortable design scheme of pink-white-pink establishes an orderly decorating plan. Count on pink to maintain its joyful presence, and include a generous helping of white to keep the feeling light and airy.

How to get the look

Mix stripes and patterns. Good-quality cushions can be very pricey – so why not make your own with a typically Scandinavian combination
of ticking and toiles?
Use elegant styles. Combine beautifully designed furniture like a circular side table and lamp with subtle blues and creamy white – a colour combination that’s always a winner.
Create a classic display. Add interest to a plain wall with a new take on a traditional idea – hang a collection of fine porcelain plates and saucers above a sideboard for an eye-catching display.

Mediterranean Style Garden Design Ideas

admin — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 07:14:02 +0000

If you are out to have some serious fun in your garden, you should consider going Mediterranean, albeit in a small way. All you need is some sunny space, the basic concepts and lots of creativity.

Create a Mediterranean garden wherever you live with bright colors and hot hues from flowers like coreopsis, blanket flower, sedum, and sunflower.

Set these off with contrasting plants in shades of blue along with silvery-gray foliage plants.

Artemisia, catmint, blue fescue, Mexican-bush sage, and lamb’s ear are good choices. Include a variety of fragrant herbs like lavender, rosemary, and thyme.

Olive and citrus trees also provide a Mediterranean touch. Lightly colored boulders placed within the garden will also help mimic the Mediterranean landscape.

If your home’s architectural style doesn’t quite fit in with a Mediterranean style garden, you can try painting the garden walls a soft pinkish-beige or terra cotta. Finish off your Mediterranean garden with a layer of gravel mulch.

Mosaic tiles are commonly used in Mediterranean gardens, seen decorating walls, tables, and pots, regardless of size. Substitutes for mosaic tiles can come from broken dishes or stained glass. Simply use mosaic adhesive and sanded grout found in craft and tile stores. Instruction manuals will provide an array of design ideas as well. Alternatively, seashells can be implemented. If space permits, add a small table and chair or two to create your very own sanctuary, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. For further ambiance, as well as privacy, grow climbing crops (grapevine) or fragrant flowering vines (honeysuckle) on rustic-looking vertical supports, such as a trellis or an arbor. This will allow you to make the most of your available space, even in the smallest area. (Text By Nikki Phipps, photo: trunko)

Here are the basic components of a Mediterranean-style garden:

Expansive hardscapes
Entertainment is at the heart of a Mediterranean garden. Hardscapes such as patios, terraces, paths and paved surfaces dominate over lawn. Such spaces and structures support a wide range of recreational facilities. A swimming pool and shady shelters for dining and wining, for instance, are common features. They provide lots of enjoyment and much needed respite from the hot sun.

Hardscapes are softened with container plantings. The planters are in themselves strong expressions in the design. They are drawn from artefacts associated with Mediterranean cultures.

Planting materials
Sun-loving and drought-tolerant plants dominate traditional Mediterranean gardens. Olive and citrus trees are specimen plants in these gardens. You can, however, find similar alternatives if they don’t grow too well in your region. Other worthy inclusions include palms, sunflower and sedum.

Plant colour is an important component. Vibrant colours are placed against a background of blue shades and silvery grey foliage to contrast and stand out. Fragrant delights such as lavender, rosemary and sage also give the garden a characteristic aroma.

Water features
Elaborate fountains, cascades, pools and other water features depict the value attached to the scarce commodity. Besides its functional qualities, other aspects of water are equally critical in this garden. Its cleansing and purifying qualities are symbolic. The sound it makes as it flows or trickles down a cascade creates a serene environment for relaxation and contemplation.
Hardscapes like patios and paved surfaces are a common feature of the gardens.

Art and decor
Terracotta was traditionally the most dominant hardscape finish in Mediterranean gardens. Lately, however, other types of finishes have been used effectively to substitute it and to maintain harmony with contemporary architectural finishes. If, for instance, terracotta does not quite fit in with your architectural finish, it is perfectly in order to apply paint to the garden walls to match the house. The paint should, however, be plain and preferably bright.

Mosaic tiles characteristically cover garden walls and furniture. Besides giving the garden identity, this form of art also gives a year-round colour even when all the flowers are gone. (Text by By Hosea Omole)

All products are available from Homebase (0845 077 8888)

Landscaping
Choose mid-stoned paving for a sun-bleached look, walls painted in soft terracotta, pergolas, arches, borders for planting Mediterranean herbs, chillis, olives and splashes of bright colour.

Furniture
Go for sturdy, rustic wooden table and benches, or, for a more upmarket treatment, decorative cast iron.

Ornamentation
Clay chimenea, terracotta urn.

Planters
Mosaic, blue-glazed Malay ceramics, square, scroll-top or Tuscany terracotta pots.

Plants
Cytisus, lavender, geraniums, vines, olive trees, chillis, peppers, rosemary, yucca, palms.

Housing is in a trend right now to smaller more efficient living spaces with a focus on quality materials in smaller homes with multi-use spaces. The drive by the average home owner for large sprawling living spaces seems to have been replaced by the desire to live in smaller, richer environments with rooms that serve more than one purpose.One way to take best advantage of a smaller space is with built in organizers ranging from closet organizers and pantries to murphy beds and tables.

Smaller homes usually have smaller kitchens which can be a bit of struggle for home owners who enjoy cooking. One option for a smaller home is an open design between the kitchen and dining area with an eating bar in between, opening up the work space nicely. Also consider built in appliances like ovens or range tops. A built-in oven can even be placed at a more easily accessed height partway up the wall, making for less stooping while you cook. Many appliances come in smaller sizes which might also work well in a more moderately sized kitchen.

If you would really like to give your home a new look, you may want to think about going online and looking for a modern home decorating tips site so that you can find out what is new in home decorating and how you will be able to properly update your home. You will also find a lot of great ideas from looking through modern magazines and seeing what the Internet has to offer to you picture wise. You will find that there are a lot of new decorating ideas, but what is new and in is constantly changing. You will want to go online and just take a browse and look to find some inspiration.

A more condensed bathroom is often encountered not just in smaller homes but also in many larger homes as well, particularly with secondary or ensuite bathrooms. Unless a bathroom is specifically set aside for guests, they seem to be chronically disorganized due to being so well used by everyone in the house. If there is not much cabinet space in your bathroom, some well placed built-in shelving or cupboards can make a huge difference to the space available for organizing your bathroom. If you can’t build in, try an over toilet shelf to give you that extra space.

All in all, with our current trends to smaller living spaces, we need to be more creative about how we use and organize in our homes. The more that we can creatively use these smaller spaces, the more comfortable we can live in them.
