Chair Design Concept VLIK
This chair design idea originally comes from my own house, who happens to have a living room and living room open space with limited space. Because of the variety of activities, then we need a chair that could double, to formal activities (eg when there are guests, discussions, meetings and others) and for leisure activities (when watching TV, read books, visited his nephew, etc.). Having obtained the functional relationship between the chair and sitting activities, the process also continues to design a visual idea.
This chair when an upright position, similar to ergonomics chair or sofa to normal, but when reversed or referred to (vlik name from the term ‘Flick’) This seat will go to the other side (living room) and turned into a relaxed position with low ergonomic sofa / reclined / seats fell to relax watching TV, read books, and more.
A chair for the two activities with the approach ’simple’. Well of course there will be ‘ergonomical compromise’ in the second position, but tried to overcome the form of ‘Curved’ and the thickness of foam sufficient to provide a point of sitting tolerance when used.
In addition, the chair should be sturdy structure but flexible within certain limits that can be used well. Stage of completion details or ‘fine tune’ is still required to enter the production phase.
For the production stage to use simple, modular system for wood materials, due to lack of economical bending system. In addition, alternative materials can be used semi-organic composite or recycled materials (recycled materials). Hopefully together with the Savana Furniture we can realize this chair.
Bathroom Design
The bathroom is a core part of a house. Morning activities started from this place. When we want to build or renovate the bathroom a good and healthy, there are things we have to consider.
Some aspects that must be considered, such as size, condition of the bathroom is dry or wet, the location, lighting, air circulation, and security.
For example:
Size
Size of a bathroom mainly depends on the available land. If our homes are large, we can make a big bathroom. But if our home land is limited, so the bathroom should also be adjusted. Another factor is the activity carried out in the bathroom. If the bathroom or dressing up to be a place you love to soak the shower size may be greater
Dry or wet
Bathroom with a dry floor cleaner look. However, the wet floor still more preferred because bathing habits of Indonesia. It could also put the bathroom when dry and wet in one room. The concern is there should be a separation in order not to dry the floor wet. For example, by using fiber glass separator or can be made with the wet lower surface and separated the plastic.
Location
The placement of objects in the bathroom should be arranged as well. For example the sink is placed to the front so that when washing hands, we do not need to go to the bathroom or closet should not be placed after a wet floor area.
Light
The bathroom is often the place of development of disease germs. So, if possible, design so that the bathroom can get sunlight, for example, by using transparent tiles or other transparent material translucent sun. Because the presence of sunlight can prevent germs growing. In addition, it can help save the use of headlights during the day.
Air
To be healthy, in the bathroom is also need for air circulation. Circulation is not good to make a bathroom odor. It can be grating at the bottom of the door or at the top of the bathroom. If it is not possible to install the lattice, it can be mounted exhaust fan.
Safe
Bathroom safety also need to be considered, because we do not want any family members who are injured or fall in the bathroom. So for the floor, you should not choose a slippery floor. Cleanliness should also be observed, so no moss so the bathroom was slippery.
