Another Room Remix

Tuesday, June 30, 2009


New Remix It Online Project:
Here is a new remix it online project that I just received. This 9 year old girl has been sharing a room with her younger sister and is ready to move downstairs into her own bedroom (currently being used as an office). Her mom has requested that we make a fun room for her using a comforter and throw that they've already purchased and a queen bed/headboard that they've had in storage.


Here's a sneak peek at a before photo that they sent in:


I'll be posting the remix it design board, so stayed tuned!

**TODAY (WEDNESDAY, JULY 1st) IS THE LAST DAY TO REGISTER FOR THE REMIX IT ONLINE GIVEAWAY!**

Have a great day!

Things You Can Do With A LIVING WALL....


You could buy a warehouse to live in and do this !!!
I would definitely do this !!
I can see me living or working here in a heart beat.


You could hang a few to cover something you would rather not look at.
.....I would need to carry it around with me all day. wink wink
Cover an entire building.

Need some fresh air ? Stephan from Architect Design told me that english ivy in a home has more air purifying abilities than any other house plant.

Have you ever been frustrated trying to pick an exterior paint color? Go REALLY GREEN.



How about covering a new wood fence ?
If you have little or no room to plant something in front of it , do this.

An exhibit of living walls.

Look how you can cover those ugly wire fences. These are stunning.
I did a post on an apartment with living walls of english ivy, and I wondered how they did this.
In this post I will reveal how it is done and where you can get it.


Can you think of a place where you could use a living wall ???




Click to enlarge and print these out if you are interested.



You can mix it up, and use different plants !!

This would normally be a big concrete (boring) wall.
This must be spectacular in person.


Oh yes, and you can do a roof too.

The Porch


I know that some of you are interested in "remixed" furniture but just don't have the time or possibly the inclination to do it yourself. With that in mind, I thought I would remind you that The Porch in Buffalo is open starting today through the weekend and is having a 20% off sale. Teresa has a great shop with tons of remixed treasures. Here are some photos of July market finds that she posted on her blog:

An Ideal Bachelor (Single Living) Home.....


Observing India's major cities today, I feel that there is a major space concern. There was once this concept of city center...but now this has been changed to area center. Out of college and in a good job, most of the youth today want to live independently and enjoy their life. In doing so, I have also seen that most of them want to live luxuriously and most importantly in style. Considering the fact that these people will opt for studio apartments, I think that the concept of multi-functional furniture systems will be the order of the day. I am fascinated by one such design by second year students of industrial design at Mid Sweden University, sundsvall. This is a Russian Matryoshka (in indian terms....it could be the channapatna dolls) inspired design which has egg shaped dolls in decreasing sizes that fit inside each other. The students worked on the same concept to design a system that holds both a study, a double bed, a sofa, a dining area and has ample room for storage.....A sofa that can be converted to a day bed....

My recent project ..........KITCHEN

Monday, June 29, 2009


I just finished working on this kitchen project and I am very happy about the outcome. Please take a look.


The client wanted a neutral scheme in the kitchen. So, I chose to use the natural shades of wood in beige and dark oak. As she is an avid collector of artefacts, she wanted some space to exclusively display them. So, I suggested some open cupboards which can pre-dominently display her collection. As the whole kitchen was in neutral, I decided to use Yellow as the backsplash tile colour. Since yellow is the colour of the sun, this colour helps in achieving a fresh, lively and clean feel to the kitchen. It is also believed that yellow colour induces appetite and so an ideal choice in the kitchen and dining area.

Satu kamar untuk Semua



Satu kamar untuk Semua [Index]
Satu kamar untuk Semua "Saya ingin mata yang sederhana namun cathcing," kata Moch. Maulana ZP., Yang didukung oleh istri Kanny Savitri ketika ditanya oleh Ceilano Borndahl Kuropatkin arsitek. Ya, ini yang sangat muda dengan beberapa rumah seperti yang terlihat sederhana namun tetap terlihat menarik dan menonjol. Selain itu, mereka juga ingin bahwa ada banyak ruang dan dapat menampung hingga berbagai kegiatan yang berada di rumah.

Pasangan yang suka sepak bola dan warna merah ini, juga sangat memperhatikan detil yang dibuat di rumah mereka, agar tampak lebih indah. Konsultasi dan diskusi dengan arsitek yang juga merupakan teman lama mereka dilakukan untuk mencapai hasil maksimal. Banyak dari ide-ide mereka yang akhirnya dipakai untuk detil desain rumah ini, seperti penggunaan keramik mozaik, dan pemilihan warna.

Ruang keluarga yang multifungsi
Remy dan Kanny, sapaan akrab keduanya menginginkan sebuah rumah yang tidak terlalu banyak ruang. Bagi mereka yang penting ruang-ruang dasar kebutuhan mereka sudah terpenuhi, seperti ruang tidur utama dan tambahan, dapur, ruang makan, ruang keluarga, ruang keluarga, dan area layanan.

Satu hal yang mereka lupa Beno arsitek, terdapat satu kamar yang dapat dimaksimalkan di tengah rumah. Hal ini karena mereka ingin agar rumah mereka yang kecil dapat menjadi acara keluarga yang akan sering diadakan.

Oleh karena itu akhirnya Beno membuat sebuah ruang keluarga yang "tanpa batas". Ruang keluarga ini sengaja tidak lepas dari sekat untuk makan, dan malam adalah sebuah ruang rumah ini.

Divider dibuat hanya untuk memisahkan ruang tamu dengan ruang keluarga. Ini pada awalnya Kanny dan Remy tidak ingin memisahkan ruang keluarga dan ruang keluarga, tapi akhirnya dengan beberapa pertimbangan juga diberikan kamar pembatas.

Jadi tidak memakan ruang wilayah, kemudian menggunakan ruang tamu dan teras ditutup dengan tembok. Antara ruang keluarga dan dapur, diberi batasan yang sangat terbuka, sehingga lampu hijau ke dalam dapur yang unik adalah aksen di ruang yang didominasi oleh warna putih.

Lampu merah-dinding
Sehingga rumah ini tampak menonjol dan mudah dikenali di lingkungan, maka dibuatlah sebuah bidang vertikal di depan rumah ini. Awalnya dinding ini akan batu alam, tapi karena biaya yang terlalu besar untuk sebuah dinding, maka Beno juga mengusulkan untuk menggunakan cat dinding sebagai pengganti batu alam. Karena pasangan ini adalah seperti warna merah, maka diputuskanlah untuk menggunakan cat merah, yang akan muncul untuk membuat rumah ini sangat menarik. S = Kompas

Miss Pettigrew And My Two Of My Favorite Things......


This movie is full of beautiful Men & SETS,
my favorite things in life to observe..
This is Nick. He is sexy ....this is a bad pic of him. He is definitely my type.
This is the ever so delicious Michael.
This is Delysia..........the lovable,wacky, and screwed up struggling night club singer.
Rent this movie. It is almost an 'adult disney flick' with a good message.
Delysia and MISS PETTIGREW in the art deco apartment. M.P. is a woman with a message.
This LOVE.....he is adorable.

Look at that face ! Those eyes.....

Miss Pettigrew gets lucky too.
The reason for this post is that the sets are so great. I almost stopped the movie when it first started, because in the beginning Miss Pettigrew is getting food at a soup kitchen. It is 1939 in the movie, which means the crash was in 1929, that is 10 years !!!!
Do we have 9 years left in our great recession ???
I adore Art Deco. The set in her apartment is magnificent. The iron railings, the art deco panels on the walls. Even the lamp shades on the lamps. Her bedroom is faboo too.
I spent several years importing from Paris french art deco furniture. I love it and would love to live in the apartment featured in the movie.
Back to the issue of me wanting to stop the movie because it was unpleasant to watch the difficulties of the main character Miss Pettigrew at the soup kitchen......
One of my defects of character is avoiding unpleasantness, the tedious motions and movements you to have to do to get through a task.
And my task at hand was watching the movie. I forced myself to continue watching and it, and it turned out to be a complete pleasure.

It is very difficult for me to 'do tedious'.
But, when I do finish a task it is always gratifying.
Why are some of us plagued with this character flaw ????
I have to work on this daily.
Lately I have been chanting to myself....."just get it over with , DO IT".
