Minimalist Home Designs

Located in the district of Flemish Belgium, Wim Goes Architectuur has delivered an amazing wooden extension to a house facade, which includes both visual and structural grace. Nature, gray wood, green vegetation and blue sky and the pond to create a harmonious balance, accented by vertical lines thinner than the largest surface.



Minimalist house design unique. Made in the pond. Environmentally friendly home design. The facade is made from thin slices of wood selected for straightness of growth rings on each piece of wood. And although the wood will still warp a little rain and sun, this does not cause structural problems because of the facade do not have to bear the burden of wind - the wind will blow right through the strip.

Minimalist philosophy represents a practical way of life, dynamic, concise, effective and efficient, which is applied in all aspects of life including architecture, interior space and exterior gardens.

Space becomes felt relieved (empty, immortality, meditative atmosphere) according to the primary needs of residents, to optimize the circulation of healthy fresh air, and lighting is abundant sunshine (rich colors).

Minimalist house design eliminates many of saturation with the use of decorative ornaments, trinkets accessories. Character and quality of spaces created by the existence of space defined itself, not by the furniture and accessories trinkets in it.

Hollywood Regency Mirrors

Advertisements .

A while back we saw these mirrors at the Las Vegas home show and we thought they were really cool.  They are a group of individual mirrors hung together.  By themselves they are not that unique, but as a group, well, as a group they just POP!

Take this group of mirrors, for example. 



It actually consists of 12 of these:


These are 12 x12 and runs about $150 each. 

Here  is another one:




These are actually four of these:



These are 32 x 32 and costs about $360 each.

Our favorite is this one:




Which actually consists of this one, which costs about $280

and this one, which costs about $150 or so


As you can see, these can be made as into any size that you want. We like them big--the bigger the better.  The impact is more dramatic that way.

The mirrors are made of lacquer and take about 4-6 weeks. You can find them in our decorative mirror section.

We just picked up this new line of decorative pillows and we're really excited about it. It's pretty, it's fresh, it's colorful, but do you know what we are excited about the most? They make the pillows here in the US and can ship in 2-3 days! That's like, really amazing...For some mysterious reasons that we never understand, many vendors take 4-8 weeks to make a pillow!  Think about it.  Dell can build a computer in 1-2 days!  Don't you think that is rather strange?

Here are some previews. We'll be posting these up in our decorative pillows section this weekend so please check back soon to see the rest.






















The pillows are made with very nice designer fabrics from F Schumacher and the likes.  They are filled with down/feather.  The sizes range between 22x22 to 24x24.  Prices run between $200-300 per pillows.

Tips to make the minimalist home designs Pollution

Picture details on the second floor balcony, with a roof garden, and a secondary skin trick avoid sunlight directly into the house. But still there is a smooth flow of water into the house.

Tips Eco-design: Figure dream house, House Green / Eco Friendly: The house Comfortably in the middle of the water pollution.

Model dream house is not good enough if only the eye. Half thought that the ancient, self-centered and tend to be narcissistic. The concept of minimalist homes, modern homes, traditional houses, or any of today must be added an element that is environmentally friendly!

In the world of architectural concepts of environmentally friendly design called ecodesign. What are the requirement to design environmentally friendly houses? The following explanations and examples.

The house that is environmentally friendly house that integrates the entire process of unity by considering the consequences for the environment. That is, since the beginning of the process of design, development and utilization of building various aspects considered.

Aspects that should be considered primarily:
1. Consumption of resources-saving and efficient (energy, materials, water and land)
2. Emissions both to air, water and related land and environmental health
3. Others (such as noise and vibration).

If you want to apply ecodesign for your dream house, concrete can be a lot. For example, house-rich sun, so electricity can be saved. A lot of windows and a smooth air flow so you do not need air conditioning. Sufficient land for the well catchment. Green room, aka the garden which supplies clean air requirements. Installation of sewerage and waste that can be recycled. Utilization of building materials that are not wasteful. And others. And so on.

Whew, it turns out many aspects that must be diperhatiakan in design. Of course, not all designs can always accommodate all aspects. But minimal. Once again minimum: You should not spend the whole land for the house, or covered with cement. You need to take into account that every room to get sunlight and air enough. Use lights and put points on the optimal place.

In the example below we try ecodesign concepts apply in a 3-story building. Note that in each floor, we provide open space that can be used for garden or ornamental plants, abundant air flow, yet remain shielded from the sun
