Though the problem is not only that. When selecting a home was not uncommon to end up with disappointment.

pick-house
* Location
Many people make choices that will house they occupy based on location. Usually they choose based on ease of access to public places such as markets, hospitals, police stations, and others. There is also a good idea considering the wide street in front of the housing complex and the distance of one km from the housing. Road widening is increasingly strategic location of the housing.
* Developer
Consider a developer who built the house. How many houses are built and investigate the quality of housing. How long are built and occupancy rates during the period of time. Good housing tends to quickly be filled by residents. Of course new developers who will use price as its main strategy. It’s not a problem really researched the origin before purchasing. A good small developers will be better than the big developers who have less than good faith.
* Brochures are used
Is a brochure containing full information? The pictures in the brochure whether the form of a photograph or sketch? The attached site plan can be used as a reference. Usually depicted in the sketch that residential location close to the strategic locations such as campuses, schools, hospitals, and others. Make sure that the plan contains the comparison distance depicted realistically. Better if the distance listed. But make sure also that which is written the same distance or not much different from the actual distance. This is related to honesty developers in providing information.
* Survey location
In the area you can see the quality homes that have been or are being built. There may be a little pile of bricks or other materials in the plots around the house that you seek. Do not automatically assume that the lots are already sold out. Sometimes developers want to give the impression that their housing lots sell quickly and you drill also liked the other prospects. It’s good you have to do a survey before and after seeing the developer. Survey at night and by day also showed something different. As the evenings can usually be found in the residential street lighting. Through the lights are lit on each house can also note that the comparison between the houses already built and the house already inhabited. Information from old residents also need to be found.
* Improving the quality of home
Perhaps you are tempted by the cheap prices offered by the new developer. Usually housing construction undertaken by the developer. Be sure to conduct strict supervision in the home building process. You must have the heart to nag to intervene in housing construction. Collect as much information about how to build a foundation, walls and other parts of the house. also did a survey on prices of materials you use. Especially if you want to make changes to specifications of standard home offered by developers.
* Completion of administration
This relates to the agreement of sale, building specifications, certificates and others. Consider whether sufficient detail the things provided for in such paperwork. Penalty usually imposed only on the buyer. In this case the buyer is usually too passive to an agreement that potentially harming themselves terserbut. If there once or even several times delayed by the developer to revise the agreement immediately emphasize the part if the delay made by the developer. Say, that it is you want to be stranded on a mutually beneficial cooperation between the two parties.

At first when I was little, our house is still a house with an old building structure adopted by the village people. The form of this house like Limas dam is often called a pyramid. The house is divided into four important sections namely the front room, bedroom, senthong (warehouse), Pawon (kitchen). Usually the kitchen belonging to the extent not much different from the spacious living-room building.
Our home, the kitchen was the most frequently visited by the residents of the house. In addition to the cooking arena, though processing, this dtempat also we like to hang out, chat, anything what was to be able to sleep in the kitchen because it placed a “divan” (bed).
At that time we still use the fireplace hearth is a very simple, using firewood. Well, because it setiapaku wake up from sleep, I just went into the kitchen and enjoy the warmth of radiant heat and embers from the stove. Through it all, I know the habits of the kitchen activities, especially the scene from my mother. Cause he is the most powerful in the region.
From beliaulah I began to know how to make fire, light the stove, pestle, pestle, chopped, sliced, and eperithing … In a way, I learned about cooking and cooking since I was a kid, where I was always waiting and watching his movements and imitated later time play with practically the same teman.Apalagi often used to send elementary school teachers to help parents who are working ..
The first thing I do in the kitchen when it was a mistake.
At the time I was kira2 third grade my elementary school play, run-larian around the kitchen. While the mother I was cooking rice in the kettle black once already because of soot. As usual after the rice is cooked, the rice is immediately derived from the stove and then the lid slightly open. Well, at that time I was busy chasing cats Mother. Chased, running and running, and maybe my heart is so heavy because merassakan joy toy is alive. Without realizing my feet container into a fairly hot. Container it is boiler rice containing the results of my mother’s cooking.
Luckily my feet like the feet of iron that have a high boiling point. So I do not feel great pain, and no burns. But I was crying, and crying even more so when my mom is super nyuuuush .. yell at me and finally punished ..

Concept Architecture And Interior Health House
Interior January 1st, 2010
If at this time we can have a house, it is the grace and elegance which we’re grateful for, especially if the house we live in is a healthy home. What elements should be considered in designing the lay out floor plans and spatial planning for a healthy home?
The first thing to note is that a healthy area of the house, should be able to meet basic human needs for at least a healthy activity, in this case means can make fairly activity in the room, not too small or too big (Architecture Room). Of course, we still often hear many of our brothers and sisters who are less able to live in unsuitable conditions in the houses is very narrow due to unfavorable economic factors.
According to the Indonesian National Standard (SNI), the need for space to house an inmate is 9m2, with a threshold of 7.2 m2. So for example a house occupied by four people planned, spacious home then it should not be less than 36m2. Nevertheless, we know that the vast 36 square meter house is quite narrow for occupancy 4 people.
When houses are planned to be added to the level of spaces, do not forget to strengthen the foundation and column structure to support the construction of two levels. This is to avoid the additional cost of having to dismantle the existing construction.
Structuring the room can affect our impression of these spaces. Bedroom with bathroom adjacent to a different ‘feel’ when compared with the juxtaposed dining room. Clever arrangement of space in this regard, including how to keep such activities in the bathroom did not interfere with the dining room, at least with dissociated distance.
Structuring Architectural Space should also be noted that there are no spaces poor fresh air, dark, and so forth. Avoid corner spaces with a sharp angle because such space is not effective and not in accordance with the standards of furniture that is generally rectangular or round. Connect the ventilation and windows of each room with a garden front, side or garden in the house to the turn of the air. Spaces which can be attributed as the living room, family room and dining room walls need not be partitioned so that air can flow more freely.
To maximize natural lighting, we should provide adequate windows, at least 5% of the size of the room. In addition, the space can be given a wall paint or finishing material to the atmosphere light bright enough space when opening the window a bit limited.
Spaces that require water such as kitchens, bathrooms, washing facilities and so forth should be grouped in an area adjacent to sanitation is more efficient because the pipes can be unified. Similarly with bathroom above and below, should be in the same vertical area (located above the bathroom of the downstairs bathroom), so if there is any leakage, simply wet the affected area.
