In addressing the urban context, the building designed to function also as a garden city. Open land as a result of the lift on the building design to be able to balance the human scale and buildings.

At the rear boundary wall of the house hanging pots accessories provided that the content of the grass plants thypa, there is also betel striped stonework, as well as artificial waterfalls that natural Suana increasingly felt.

Many people are confused about how to put the objects in the room decoration. Placed itself, bad. Placed in groups, also seems strange. So no more confusion, just follow these 5 tricks.

1. If you put artwork, photographs or paintings on the walls, do not put it on / exceed the height of the eye. Put just about 150 cm from the floor. This way your photo or painting would be more comfortable viewing.

2. Use the ornaments appropriate to the scale of the room. General guidelines are used, use 2 / 3 of the width of the existing wall to create. If you do not have a big enough picture, try grouping several items and place them close together to meet the scale of the existing space.

3. To avoid monotony, you should not put the decorations on tables and shelves shelves on the wall were rows like rows of soldiers. The monotony can also arise due to the grouping of things exactly the same. If you must use the things the same, vary with height or size different.

4. There are guidelines that say odd better. So, if you want to do grouping decoration, place the ornaments in odd number like 3, 5, and so on.

5. Keep in a group there is no texture or color differences are striking. The best, group objects that have texture or similar properties
