Bathroom: Design or Comfort?

That’s the question you’ll have to answer as you sort out bathroom styles, materials and finishes. Does your taste run toward the classic or the eclectic? Are you more comfortable in a bathroom, filled with glinting white fixtures and sanitary tiled floors, or is there an essential element in you calling out for more color, something well different.

Vintage or contemporary, the style you choose and the fixtures and finishes you select hand in hand. Tile, of course remains an ever popular favorite for all style of bathrooms, thanks to all manufacturers who is at out most in designing new and versatile design you can ever imagine, there are also anti-bacterial now a day. You might also want considering in going green, the organic look of natural stone, which rival ceramic in its durability and affordability, metal and glass both have a number of applications in a bathroom and can lead it to modern and industrial quality and design too! There are also synthetic finishes, like, laminates and surfacing materials also available to choose from, now a days, paints are also used as design option, there’s a lot of whole palette of colors to give pizzazz.

Often time, a house total structure helps me in determining the design and style of its bathroom, it make sense to incorporate the same features from the overall design of the house, a designer’s ability and the owner’s taste offer a wide range of options for self expression. Whether you remain contemporary, or try to create a period look, choose the style that reflects your own interest, design may vary, but your comfortability  always comes first, it will create an atmosphere that invigorates you in the morning and relaxes you before going to bed, that place makes the room a desirable place to be.

Accessories

Accessories are the fun part of all of my projects, they bring all the extra touches and totally bring life and interest to the scheme. I use them to finish off a room I designed to perk up a room, you might also find ideas here for your gifts that you make for other interested home lovers. Accessories include everything from rugs, lamps, a vase to candles and wall hang pictures, they create the final touches in your theme, from the start, I always ask my client, what are their intention to renovate or redesign their house, and ask them what are their inspirations for the theme. It could be a gift that you received from your last birthday party, a thing you that you really love, they are the quickest way to change the look of a room or your house, with this in mind, it makes sense to keep them inexpensive as possible.

Never underestimate the effect of accessories. Although they might give an impact, they are essential to overall appearance when used well, accessories is the easiest way to achieve balance and harmony, the completeness of your home.

Legazpi Towers 100: 5B Project Update

This old condominium unit were planned to divided into parts, one destined to socializing, which includes dining, living and kitchen area, and the other, for more private life which includes the master's bedroom, child's bedroom and entertainment area. The parts were separated by partitions made in white painted walls and wood color combinations.

The construction can be defined as planes and masses that emerge from within the space creating different ambiances and perspectives that produce movements and areas of visual interests. Another this unit's qualities is the way different materials and textures are combined by using light colored porcelain tiles, except on the bedrooms. This enriches the visual perception of the whole area. In the entrance, living area, dining area and passage to bedrooms.

The linearity of the partitions and separating elements has been slightly broken by geometric ceiling and gaps, and openings which have been used as aesthetic source to introduce the environment. In this case, the spaces resulting from this resource are used as functional element such as shelves or recessed tables.

Legaspi Towers 100 5B- A New Order

Over the base of the old apartment located at 5B Legazpi Towers 100, Legazpi St., Legaspi Village, Makati, the priority in this refurbishing has been that freeing the interior space and giving it a regular order.

Consequently, the first step was to tear down the partition walls and leave a large space like a blank page in which a new order of structure could be created. This space was divided in to two parts, first part is for the master's bedroom, girls room, entertainment room, kitchen, maid's quarter, and the second part is for dining room and living area. The second part  is completely left with wide open space as living area,  shared by the common zones, which next as dining area. The first half was divided into five different areas with different ambiances to incorporate the daily lifestyle of the family, which are communicated by the entertainment area and the kitchen. What is more , better use of the available space separated by partitions walls, for example, in the study area, also serves a entertainment area for the family, shelves have been distributed to almost the perimeter of the room that have permitted to build a library, shelves will be fitted practically. The choice for glass and stainless fittings for all the fixed furnishings along with the dominance of the color, this style of modern-contemporary which is at the same time is timeless. This sensation is strengthened by the presence of the hallway fitted with family pictures and art as wall gallery.

The project is at second week, fairly good enough as start.

INTERIOR LIGHTING

The Interior Designing of your home may be done with the help of the gifted Interior Designer.  They will help you to choose the correct shade right for your home. But interior lighting always plays an important role in designing premises.To create a proper tone for appropriate area, lighting shouldn’t be bright enough and but should provide a good lighting such that people are not putting too much strain on their eyes. Correct amount of light is quite crucial as too much of light can almost cast a shadow whereas too low light can make you end up looking pale, in your dining area, the food looks even tastier. If every wall has a different color, therefore, walls will absorb different amount of light. So before installing any type of lights, it is necessary to keep this factor into consideration.
You might have your home decorate with beautiful interior designs but if you don't have the perfect balance of the lighting with the furniture, you are surely missing something in your life. Poor lighting interior design is quite common as most of the people are not aware of the exact requirements for them. Therefore, they end up having an irritable behavior most of the time.

CURTAINS

Curtain is a piece of cloth intentional to block light. Curtains are often hung inside of a window to block the passage of light, for instance at night to aid sleeping, or to stop light from escaping outside the building, but often for privacy reasons. In this application they are also known as "draperies. Various architectural structures around the curtain can minimize air drafts, but usually they are just used for decoration and make rooms feel cozier.

If you’re looking to update your curtains, we may be able to help you, from choosing the right size, color and fabric that suited to your taste and design, we have the most beautiful fabrics to choose from.

SMALL SPACES: BEDROOM

Your bedroom is the most important room in the house, so than your living room, bathroom, kitchen. Regardless of its size, it’s the room where you ought to feel most comfortable. Even if your room is small, more like of a shoe box, you can make most out of it if you only plan. It’s all about organization.

CLUTTER is STRESSFUL! Ask anyone.

The good news is that you don’t need a lot of space to be organized. A floor to ceiling shelf will do, most especially if you have a high ceiling, maximizing its potential for your organizational and space saving plan. Drawers and shallow boxes under the bed are great for storage of linens. A few key comforts can take your bedroom from the realm of purely comfortable to downright homely. While a few well placed art works, some family memorabilia such as photo and a good lamp next to a reading chair completes the relaxing bedroom.

Spaces

Living Room and Family Room- What's the difference? One gets used and the other doesn't.

Family Room- A family room is a typically defined as informal multi-purpose room where family gather to talk, study, play or watch TV. The key to small family room is to use only as much as space as you really need. For instance, some people keep their computer here, usually accompanied by a small desk and additional equipment, such as TV. In my Project: Avida, a carved alcove in one wall, where I will place the TV to keep the room's function.

Living Room-Often the first guest's used to see first. Limiting the number of pieces of furniture in Project: Avida keep it's function and simplicity, keeping it as open as possible and kept the circulation in this area.

Project: Legaspi Tower 100

Went to a meeting regarding our next project which will commence on the 15th of May, just a right timing, that is the same target date of turn over of Project: Avida, in Nuvali, Laguna. Which I am going to share the step by step finishing details on my next blog.

I had the chance of visiting the booth of Mariwasa Siam Ceramics, Inc. during the Worldbex 2011, they also launched the latest additions to its wall and floor tile ranges featuring the latest trends and available in a range of colors, finishes and designs.
