Landscaping design with neighbor's garage
Comments (10)I agree with the others - ask your neighbor about painting the side of the garage that faces your yard. Depending on your style of decor, you can treat this as a part of your yard and change the appearance completely. Consider a low fence to separate your yard from the street/driveway, something similar to the red fence shown, to provide you a smaller "room" for entertaining. I live in an area where the side of the neighbors house defines the property line and have decorated the side of the neighbors house with various items to break up the expanse of wall (old window frames with the glass missing, sections of old iron fences, bird houses, etc); it really helps to cozy up the space. A trench filled with gravel and topped with larger rocks will help with the water issue and direct the water to other areas of the yard. A brick or paver patio would be lovely for establishing a conversation/grill area. The pictures submitted by PC have some great ideas. I can't recommend plants since I have not idea what part of the country you are located in...See MoreHDB Interior Design that Never Go Out of Style
Comments (0)In the year 1964, the government of Singapore decreed to provide its citizens a tangible asset in the country through what they call as the “Home Ownership for the People Scheme.” The government believed that an empowered citizen with a home of their own will eventually lead to a stable nation, economically and culturally. Since then, a lot of people in Singapore have resided in homes regulated by the Housing and Development Board or commonly known as the HBD. It is the main public housing authority and statutory board under the Ministry of National Development. Their goal is to provide the citizens with quality homes and environment suitable for living. They are guided by the concept of what they call as the “cohesive communities.” As part of its strict enforcement of their regulations, the Housing and Development Board do not allow renovation of the provided homes without their approval. If an individual wants to renovate an HDB house, he or she must seek and secure an approval and permit from the government agency to be able to carry out their tasks. A renovation without permit could mean penalties and sanctions from the HDB. Despite this strictness, people are still allowed to be given freedom and leeway to design their homes. There are a lot of HDB-accredited interior design companies which provide HBD renovation packages to give your pad a fresher and more unique look. Let’s take a look at some of the most beautiful design styles for HDB homes. Earthy tones palette – Nothing goes wrong with simple black, white, and earthy tones for your HDB interior design. The natural feel of earthy colors and palette will give you warm look, sophistication and feel acceptable for a lot of people. If you want a safe and surefire design for your small pad, you may want to consider doing earthy tones for it. Industrial – Because most of HDB homes are small, designs that are stylish yet functional are most needed. Using mirrors to create an illusion of wideness are commonly used by HDB renovation packages to visually enlarge the home. White and metallic colors can be used to provide a strong edgy look for your space. Funky and cool – If you are adventurous and love to experiment, try to splash your HDB interior design with funky and cool inspirations. Try to have fun with colors and the type of furniture. What is so special about this design theme is that it breaks the monotony of home spaces. It brings out the personality of an individual. Minimalist – Of course, the minimalist theme of design will never be out on this list. Sometimes, it is best to keep things in simplicity. White, black, gray and other neutral colors will work on this type of HDB interior designs. To cut the snooze, try to have centerpieces that are eye-popping. Accentuate the floor to make it stunning....See Moresuggestions please!
Comments (1)Hi. Have you ever considered a real interesting eye catching piece of art work to really brighten up an area, I think a select piece of art would really make the space stand out, add interest, colour, texture and add a great talking point to the room.... Please check out my website if you like the idea and please get in contact, commission work is also welcomed so if you like a particular style I can do in a select colour palette and size as an original piece…..I’m also able to produce all original paintings in high end print format, in any size same or smaller than the original. (all within proportions to the original so not to cause distortion) All prints shown are Giclee prints onto soft textured fine art media. All prints come with a white border these can be made to measure too. So lots of options, www,guigsart.co.uk...See MoreWhere/what plants to get to decorate bedroom?
Comments (7)Money plants are super easy to maintain! I've had mine for the past 7 months since moving in to our new flat and it is growing wildly around its 1.5m pole with minimal care. Cacti don't need much attention as well and make for nice decorative plants especially in toilets where you might not get much sunlight. The air plant in your second picture was actually being sold at my neighbourhood pasar malam and I was very close to getting it (apparently it only needs occasional spraying of water) but it wasn't quite my style and I went for a different plant that I'm still trying to figure out the name of. :)...See MoreRichard L
