If you answer yes, you must look for something practical and beneficial to the recipient. It must be a gift they will be happy to receive and one they will use as often as possible.</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh69Q76aqa17UHyE3Ykr8qDeSk4Yv3G_OkxoWj20sGw-RpmmaX4JknE5kd0yDiXGZMuuldlPwDdV3RjsuZEnSs-4v1kDM6C7Tlz4OBbZbLwtVpCKYNqUNzqx2l5zDPiJ4kCpuEO_VbBYUsAf_iwABVozEy-55sVsusJIawiZlHtTC-ywizePKbINgM20XUE/s2509/interior%20accents%20b%20-%20151258308_m.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1672" data-original-width="2509" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh69Q76aqa17UHyE3Ykr8qDeSk4Yv3G_OkxoWj20sGw-RpmmaX4JknE5kd0yDiXGZMuuldlPwDdV3RjsuZEnSs-4v1kDM6C7Tlz4OBbZbLwtVpCKYNqUNzqx2l5zDPiJ4kCpuEO_VbBYUsAf_iwABVozEy-55sVsusJIawiZlHtTC-ywizePKbINgM20XUE/w400-h266/interior%20accents%20b%20-%20151258308_m.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /> <br /><div style="text-align: justify;">You may think that finding gifts for creative people is difficult because we feel that design-savvy individuals are hard to please. Not quite so. Although they are creative and love stylish and attractive things, if their endless search for the finest interior elements is anything to go by, their tastes are not necessarily on the high side. Interior design professionals especially appreciate items they can use while carrying out their duties.</div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">They will appreciate interior design books and magazine subscriptions that keep them up-to-date with industry trends. They like unique curios and decorative objects they can place on table surfaces and wall shelves in their homes and offices. They find great use for sketchbooks, drawing books, workbooks, and logbooks where they can input and store their interior design project, task, and client details. And for the design-savvy individual, there are colouring books for interiors like kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms, and bedrooms.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">When deciding what to gift, it is good to keep an open mind. Consider something purposeful, practical, and pleasant. Gifts like framed artwork, artsy containers, mini-sculptures, and décor accents are great, but so are software programs, flea market finds, books, DIY how-to guides, and personalised mugs.</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: justify;">Affordable Gifts for Professional Interior Designers and Home Design Enthusiasts </h3><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><b><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Magazine subscriptions</b></div></b><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">A magazine subscription will make a great gift for any interior design professional, including beginners, students of interior design, and design enthusiasts. The choice publications include House Beautiful, Elle Decor, Better Homes and Gardens, and Country Living.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><b><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Workbooks and sketchbooks</b></div></b><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Interior design-specific books like notebooks, sketchbooks, yearly planners, and portfolio book journals are excellent gifts for practising designers. Gift recipients can draft floor plans, draw 3D illustrations, doodle and sketch, create design concepts, write descriptive briefs and notes, and document projects in methodically laid-out books.</div></div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2dj0-XEBAi7JTZfmN4g2vpENQ3CaLTHLSLx06DQsv2Mvtt9VB0WrY2BaCUorLqK48bqVYgeNGsJj3kecuG3r2ZfEBLphFeAGl7LsqWDXLFgJFCGF3IaSZahLQnwrWYuVfQeaXhhcCCo0yFrznmYMBq6c3oatnrLp4PVGmEKV-qHNGXKDbIEzp6-dXSrFM/s980/interior%20design%20sketchbook%20journal%20mockup%202.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="653" data-original-width="980" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2dj0-XEBAi7JTZfmN4g2vpENQ3CaLTHLSLx06DQsv2Mvtt9VB0WrY2BaCUorLqK48bqVYgeNGsJj3kecuG3r2ZfEBLphFeAGl7LsqWDXLFgJFCGF3IaSZahLQnwrWYuVfQeaXhhcCCo0yFrznmYMBq6c3oatnrLp4PVGmEKV-qHNGXKDbIEzp6-dXSrFM/w400-h266/interior%20design%20sketchbook%20journal%20mockup%202.png" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B7Q3DXFW" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">An excellent gift idea - Interior Design Sketchbook Journal</a></i></div> <br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Grid sketchbooks</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Graph and dot grid sketchbooks are excellent to gift interior design students and beginners and are used for developing design concepts, drawing art forms, and sketching craft ideas.

Although the Digital Paint Selector is not necessarily mechanical but digital, it also falls under the category of fabulous gift ideas.</div><br /> <br /><b>Inspiring or lifestyle books </b><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Many interior designers love to read non-interior-design and motivational books.

While developing an interior design concept, a mood board will help designers working on a project communicate their vision and ideas with clients, contractors, and other stakeholders in the industry.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">A mood board must include illustrations, swatches, colour schemes, textures, sketches, notes, and other elements.

To create balance and harmony, enhance the features and elements where necessary (styles, colour schemes, finishes, and the like).</div><div style="text-align: justify;">4.

But does this still apply today? Do we still congregate in the kitchen, helping to make dinner? Do we spend this precious time chit-chatting about our daily affairs? Perhaps, perhaps not.

If there is a will to achieve something, there will be a way to do it. If your kitchen looks fresh, warm, and inviting, everyone will want to hang around it. On the contrary, if the space is not-so-great, drab, and plain, you need to infuse some cheerfulness and style into it. And you do not require a high kitchen upgrade budget to achieve this. There are ways you give your kitchen a facelift for a lot less than you can envisage. While some upgrades will cost you nothing except elbow grease, others will cost you no more than a few hundred dollars.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: justify;">De-clutter</h3><div style="text-align: justify;">Make sure you do not crowd your countertop with stuff that should be kept away in designated storage spaces. There is nothing as unpleasant as a surface littered with cereal boxes, jam jars, cutting boards, bottles, plastic containers and <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09M53YWSC" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">fill-in family recipe books</a>. These can be stored in wall-mounted racks, floating shelves, and decorative storage baskets. Some will also find their space in kitchen cabinet compartments, pull-out spice racks, pigeon-holed drawers, or the pantry if you have one. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: justify;">Clean and De-Grime </h3><div style="text-align: justify;">Put the sparkle back on your kitchen countertops. Give them an in-depth clean and de-grim process. A beautiful shiny surface is so inviting. Everyone will feel "the clean". </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">There is no universal method for putting the shine back on your countertops. All you need are the general cleaning techniques stipulated for whatever material you have. Wood, marble, granite, laminate, or <a href="https://simpleinteriorconcepts.blogspot.com/2019/06/slate-kitchen-worktops-16-reasons-why.html" target="_blank">slate</a>. How to clean each material differs. However, most require just soapy water or an ammonia-based cleaner like SoftScrub. If you desire a polished shine, your counter will need a refinish. This is still much cheaper than replacing the entire countertop.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: justify;">Replace the Existing Kitchen Countertop</h3><div style="text-align: justify;">If you can comfortably afford to, replace the existing kitchen countertop with some modern or traditional material. For a modern touch, quartz is an attractive and hardwearing material. Additionally, it is a natural stone. It is less expensive than granite and, surprisingly, more durable. Quartz stone comes in many attractive colours without the streakiness of granite. You can choose a colour that contrasts with or complements your colour scheme. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">For a classic country theme, you can opt for a <a href="https://simpleinteriorconcepts.blogspot.com/2017/11/top-5-materials-for-kitchen-worktops.html" target="_blank">kitchen worktop</a> made from reclaimed wood, oak slabs, butchers' blocks, or soapstone. And do not forget to add a farmhouse sink. Few kitchen design ideas compare to the warmth, aesthetic and charm of a farmhouse style kitchen. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: justify;">Infuse Some Style</h3><div style="text-align: justify;">If you plan to create a show-home look for your kitchen, style it. After de-cluttering, de-griming, or replacing the kitchen countertop, make the kitchen space a focal point of the living spaces if you have an open-plan kitchen. Ensure the style flows seamlessly with the adjacent room/area. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgA_4LDHQnnY3bd2z5LWquC48ToUXeEWmRa2jlDDlftG1LHE9lj90-WPBnsr2t32Ilj-6_txLoQo24VBqPTcfnme8NVf3W26h4_9tI6-Tvmhcw2cOst5B2oDEHlMwZGHACLW1UTqwQSVQyjPr0zEp6gyeiojfpM5ekI7QmVIeHi0yVYxuvyzYJoYGoAnQ=s2507" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1673" data-original-width="2507" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgA_4LDHQnnY3bd2z5LWquC48ToUXeEWmRa2jlDDlftG1LHE9lj90-WPBnsr2t32Ilj-6_txLoQo24VBqPTcfnme8NVf3W26h4_9tI6-Tvmhcw2cOst5B2oDEHlMwZGHACLW1UTqwQSVQyjPr0zEp6gyeiojfpM5ekI7QmVIeHi0yVYxuvyzYJoYGoAnQ=w597-h400" width="597" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">For a dose of glamour, introduce some glass door cabinets (the wall units), and finish the remaining in high-gloss. If you have beautiful keepsakes to display, omit the doors in some areas and create open shelving that shows off your memorable pieces. Pretty-up the kitchen island (or breakfast counter) with attractive décor items like an eye-catching vase with fresh flowers or an ornamental platter with fruits. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Hang a <a href="https://dengarden.com/interior-design/hanging-artwork_picture-hanging-ideas" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">framed wall art</a> that draws in all colours in the scheme. Using artwork is a great way to elevate any room. Add potted herbs placed on decorative racks, colourful cacti in terracotta pots, or stainless-steel utensils containers.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">To create a traditional concept, use wall murals or special painting effects that can replicate any look from hardwood and bamboo to marble or limestone. These methods are inexpensive and easy to apply.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: justify;">Bring in the Outdoors</h3><div style="text-align: justify;">If you love nature, you can upgrade your kitchen by bringing the outdoors in. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have much floor or counter space. A creative solution to adding foliage to a small space is to go vertical or use wall <a href="https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=358885&u=631629&m=37749&urllink=www%2Emagicmurals%2Ecom%2Fvines%2Dgrowing%2Don%2Da%2Dwall%2Ehtml&afftrack=murals" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">murals with lush foliage</a> as the focal point of the kitchen. You can hang small potted plants from the ceiling or have hardware that projects them from empty wall spaces. If you have a nice deep windowsill, you can turn it into a mini herb garden or utilize it for vine plants.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">For the ceiling hung variety, you can decide how low (or high) you want the hanging cords. They can be adjusted to the appropriate length you desire </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: justify;">Give your Cabinets and Appliances a Makeover</h3><div style="text-align: justify;">You can rehabilitate your kitchen cabinet door and drawer faces (front). You can also give your old and drab appliances a brand new look. There are unlimited numbers of styling possibilities that, if you have a knack for DIY tasks, you can apply by yourself. These are great low-budget design options that will transform any kitchen space from looking ordinary to becoming aesthetically pleasing.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you don't have stainless steel appliances, you can use paint-on stainless steel (liquid stainless steel) finish to upgrade your existing appliances. Change that dated look to a modern minimalist style. You can change the cabinet fronts by painting them. You can laminate them or apply some complimentary textured covering. You can apply decals to give them a totally refreshing look. You can also varnish them with coloured lacquer/stain.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: justify;">Change Hardware and Fittings</h3><div style="text-align: justify;">From cabinet knobs and drawer handles, to switch and socket plates and pull-out systems, hardware can completely change the look of any space, including a kitchen. You can replace drawer and cabinet pulls for a style that will instantly update the room. And if you prefer the minimalist look of hidden hardware, that’s a great idea too. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Switch and socket plates are no exception. You can choose from a vast number of colors in both modern and traditional styles. Although light fittings are not hardware per se, they can still give a kitchen a dramatic effect on a low budget. There are ways you can upgrade existing lighting; paint, change of shades, etc... If you have the standard run-of-the-mill type, you can combine (or replace) them with decorative sconces, spot, or dramatic <a href="https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=570338&u=631629&m=51900&urllink=www%2Elightinthebox%2Ecom%2Fen%2Fp%2F22%2Dcm%2Dled%2Dpendant%2Dlight%2Dmodern%2Dnordic%2Dsingle%2Ddesign%2Dwhite%2Dyellow%2Dgreen%2Dgray%2Dblue%2Dpink%2Dmetal%2Dpainted%2Dfinishes%2D110%2D120v%2D220%2D240v%5Fp8357578%2Ehtml%3Fprm%3D1%2E3%2E0%2E2&afftrack=lights" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">pendants lights</a>. Light fittings and fixtures can be the perfect accessory if used correctly. They not only brighten up the kitchen; they also change the mood and feel of the room.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Related article</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><a href="https://simpleinteriorconcepts.blogspot.com/2015/12/five-efficient-kitchen-layouts.html" target="_blank">Best 5 Kitchen Layouts - How to Design Efficient Kitchens</a></div>VirginiaShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01535390345303010326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9103844033975918936.post-87284850907792980492021-07-26T20:49:00.001-07:002021-07-26T20:51:04.171-07:007 Essential Interior Design Student Resources – Back to School 2021 to 2022<div><div style="text-align: justify;">It's back-to-school or college soon and if you are a student of interior design, there are some vital resources that you will find beneficial and helpful during your study and beyond. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgay6LZ1kYIYMrv5CltmWRfVi-kwAelxKQUkn24PRyOCqi-px8coWp65YJbWYGQqGUPb8KVxQ0FNFKHdtkQaIpUGg-3EyNxvhOnW_eQOjn50JQ7ujTDenNDtU1DippsbEhYPqQRvS0CHs7T/s1920/3+mockup+students+books.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1920" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgay6LZ1kYIYMrv5CltmWRfVi-kwAelxKQUkn24PRyOCqi-px8coWp65YJbWYGQqGUPb8KVxQ0FNFKHdtkQaIpUGg-3EyNxvhOnW_eQOjn50JQ7ujTDenNDtU1DippsbEhYPqQRvS0CHs7T/w400-h300/3+mockup+students+books.png" width="400" /></a></div><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Every year before the school holidays draw to a close, design students and their teachers' must commence back to school preparations.

Some of these books, which include interior design-specific sketchbooks, school project planners, mood-page portfolio journals, site-measurements logbooks, and even home design colouring books are important tools for the creative process. <br /><br />Interior designers create functional and aesthetically pleasing indoor spaces that must meet their clients' needs and specifications. They create design concepts, draw plans, elevations, and sectional working drawings, search for furniture and furnishings that work with their concepts, and structure cost estimates for prospective clients. As a student, you are required to learn all these and tons of other stuff too. That is the multifaceted nature of the profession. <br /><br />The following must-have workbooks and sketch/drawing books were created especially for students, freelancers, and beginner designers by professional interior designers who know exactly what's required to learn and excel in this high-flying lucrative sector of the building industry.<br /><br /><br /><b><u>Space Planning Sketchbook for Interior Design Students </u></b>- Room Layout Drawing Book <br /><br />Learning how to plan the layout of an interior space is an important course in the study of interior design.

Save for some modern additions like spa baths, custom vanities, body jets built into Jacuzzis, wet rooms, heated towel rails, stylish storage ideas, underfloor heating, and thermostatic shower systems the changes are generally in bathroom styles, interior layouts, and finishes.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5mvCnJ9HnAlQUahFGkSSP9N76elPbLjt3tZQBF862z0zjNob2eh62dGwHLUlxSKK3v7jKx-nuWvGjGs3WtLTd2nrUw0KK9TdgxfV_Dy371mBaaT6g64c-935sH2xSe-N0TlpUaoBP_UYx/s875/127014548_s.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="547" data-original-width="875" height="250" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5mvCnJ9HnAlQUahFGkSSP9N76elPbLjt3tZQBF862z0zjNob2eh62dGwHLUlxSKK3v7jKx-nuWvGjGs3WtLTd2nrUw0KK9TdgxfV_Dy371mBaaT6g64c-935sH2xSe-N0TlpUaoBP_UYx/w400-h250/127014548_s.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;">With today’s speedy technological advancement, what should we expect from bathroom designers in, say, a couple of decades into the future? How radically different will they be from our own bathroom designs in our homes today?</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Just as people never imagined the magnitude of today's technological revolution a hundred years ago, the future of our bathrooms may be equally unimaginable. But we believe there is more to come. The technical revolution we continuously experience is awesome and is a pointer to the fact that future bathroom designs will be equally revolutionized.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><h3>Features to Expect in Future Bathroom Designs</h3><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">The basic elements and common features that make bathrooms designs are shower enclosures, whirlpools, bathtubs, bidets, vanity units, water closets, and accessories like faucets, caddies, bathroom mats, towel rails, storage cabinets, toilet roll holders and soap dispensers.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">These common features of this early 21st century will probably remain unchanged, just as they have been for over half a century.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">In the future, we can only speculate on the shapes and forms all of them may take, however, what is certain is that future bathroom will evolve into bathing and relaxing rooms with series of built-in hi-tech implements.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you have watched the movie “Fahrenheit 451”, a sci-fi drama movie based on a dystopian future, it is certain you must remember that bathroom scene where the leading actor, Michael B Jordan was swiping across a mirrored-wall that served as a screen that displayed everything from reading and responding to messages, to speaking and planning with his colleagues at the fire department.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Future bathroom designs may be so advanced that we may find that we spend more time in our bathroom than we do in the kitchen.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcHhjRXDDL6EM2XEeEPSxFKJathAWLnzIKaRA2P4IFRhijof5TeVaVX32ExCMu_Jto2mCx9BOeWegUA18gfIem0kXumMP0RAqsxBMIrS0n_o5j3kO7hrKf2Z62rmB35-6QIc-yvcWPpudl/s600/future+bathroom1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="400" data-original-width="600" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcHhjRXDDL6EM2XEeEPSxFKJathAWLnzIKaRA2P4IFRhijof5TeVaVX32ExCMu_Jto2mCx9BOeWegUA18gfIem0kXumMP0RAqsxBMIrS0n_o5j3kO7hrKf2Z62rmB35-6QIc-yvcWPpudl/w400-h266/future+bathroom1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><h3>Bathroom Innovations to Expect </h3><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">These are some thoughts on what to expect in bathroom innovations.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">1. Information hub - Receiving information as we take a shower or soak in the bathtub while interacting effortlessly with others.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">2. Watch television – You can listen to your favourite news channel or get updates and breaking news.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">3. Display screens – Perhaps shower curtains may also serve as display screens where we can catch up with our social media sites like check on Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook (or whatever applies in the future) while doing our bath time regimen.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">4. High-tech lavatories - Lavatories with display monitors that can measure your blood sugar level, body temperature, and blood pressure. This innovation will be a great way to monitor our health. right there as soon as we sit on the toilet.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">5. Remote controlled faucets - Taps that can be controlled remotely, so you can run a soapy bath on your way back from work. Run a bath and add your favourite bath salts or gel as you drive into your street.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">6. Movie screens – You won’t require a television or projector screen in a futuristic bathroom because the walls will be a movie screen. Watch a movie while having a long soak in the bathtub.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">7. Interactive mirrors - Wall mounted mirrors will also serve as monitors that for instance, offer tips on what to wear, how to dress up for the day, and how to apply your day or evening makeup perfectly.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">8. Waterproof speakers - Listen to music or inspirational talks from speakers installed in the shower or bathtub and connected via a multi-room hi-fi system.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">9. Self-sanitising toilet seats - This has already been invented and used in some regions in Europe and the United States. It is automatic, self-cleans, disinfects, and dry’s you up after each use. Soon, toilet seats will possess, among other features, heated seats, footrests, lids that automatically open and close, and probably integrated sound systems.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">10. Water conservation systems - As water availability reduces, water conservation becomes imperative. This means that flushing systems will be designed to use a quarter of what today’s toilets use.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">11. Wall mounted touch pads – Imagine if there are no more handles, knobs, and levers and these features are replaced with touchpads? You will be able to touch-control lights, faucets, devices, screens, etc....</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">12. Antibacterial electrolyzed water - Sanitizing will become an automatic feature in future bathroom designs. Toilet water will have “ultra-high effect and wide-spectrum disinfectant” that is colourless, odourless, and harmless to humans. Antibacterial water will clean and kill germs found in future toilet bowls.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">13. Health check - Employing the latest technology to help evaluate you and your family's health and well-being at the touch of a button.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">14. Robots – Imagine having robots to do all your chores including cleaning your bathroom. What if they can hand you a bath towel or robe, give you a body massage, a facial massage, or even a manicure and pedicure?</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">15. Background music - Pre-programmed music or playlists that understands your mood and will play accordingly so when you feel low it will detect your disposition and play music that will make you feel better. And if you feel good, it'll play music that will make you feel great.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">16. Surfaces – Countertops that generate light and adjust lighting levels, depending on the bathroom activity we intend to perform.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">17. Voice commands - Use your voice for every command, like lifting up toilet seat covers, commanding faucets to dispense hot, warm, or cold water, or commands to turn on the movie screen. It will be something like the command, "open sesame".</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">18. Sensors - That will help identify drops in your immune system, moods, cardiac rhythm, etc.…</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">19. Hands-free flushing system – When you are done with using the toilet, as soon as you get up from the seat, the toilet will flush and deodorize automatically.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">20. Built-in bidets – Bidets and bidet systems built into toilets will produce blasts of warm air that serves as drying functions.</div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrDZjfiaonr-OGLHmz5cfq129xRPDKULy_dhZnoPXgDS0vQJQOZRmGLHTAonTZd3jv3o8klq6OQ9VXsbs8nocZp1pqJEDO_pPCwIqAuWxr4HeWxPBkCV1_t_XMHSMlG4fL_1ON6_6UdlZf/s847/99474645_s.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="565" data-original-width="847" height="267" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrDZjfiaonr-OGLHmz5cfq129xRPDKULy_dhZnoPXgDS0vQJQOZRmGLHTAonTZd3jv3o8klq6OQ9VXsbs8nocZp1pqJEDO_pPCwIqAuWxr4HeWxPBkCV1_t_XMHSMlG4fL_1ON6_6UdlZf/w400-h267/99474645_s.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><h3>New Inventions Will Make Bathrooms Havens of Comfort</h3><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Future bathroom designs will incorporate functionality with health and lifestyle facilities which means the room will not only function as a place to bathe and use the toilet, it will also keep a tab on your health, give you lifestyle tips, and inspire you in ways that will make you approach each day with enthusiasm.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The room will automatically recognize household users and know who showers with hot water and who prefers lukewarm water. Modes can be set up for each member of the family for optimal convenience. For the safety of each user, fixtures will mechanically adjust heights and position to suit each family member and provide personal medical information for each person.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Future bathroom designs will not only become havens of comfort and relaxation, they will serve as a user-friendly convenience.

</xml><![endif]--> Interior designers need to carry out on-site measurements immediately after consulting with prospective clients. On-site, they assess a space or interior, draw a not-to-scale floor plan, wall elevations, and rough-sketch 3D drawings if necessary. For this, they generally use notebooks or loose sheets of A4 paper. Physical and detailed dimensions are then taken and noted next to each feature – floor, wall, electrical sockets, ceiling height, windows, and door openings. This process is always required to develop design concepts and proposals for potential clients. </p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyEf3jDG8bXcWT0bEjQizRJR-GKYjVoPKEbTVDCOxps5lETPpiqEXxryHQqIWrCAQVVF9kEy5qok4rU0sGjIWHcLwRhcogM6QR2VpcVp_EYo3jBYeHPLHMPo_nDWKRhFsGBrqH0guMeIT3/s675/measure+sketch+and+dimension+-+portrait.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="675" data-original-width="561" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyEf3jDG8bXcWT0bEjQizRJR-GKYjVoPKEbTVDCOxps5lETPpiqEXxryHQqIWrCAQVVF9kEy5qok4rU0sGjIWHcLwRhcogM6QR2VpcVp_EYo3jBYeHPLHMPo_nDWKRhFsGBrqH0guMeIT3/w266-h320/measure+sketch+and+dimension+-+portrait.png" width="266" /></a></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

outdoor room, front or back porch, or patio. It does not matter if you have a
real garden or not. If you wish to complement your home, creating a cozy garden
attached to the house has many benefits. It is also a great home enhancement
idea that you will never regret making. </span></span></p>

many people do not have much space to create one. And if you live above the
ground floor, you cannot have a garden in its real sense. But you can create a
beautiful garden within your patio.</span><p></p>
<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Types, sizes, and forms of outdoor rooms vary. Some are open
spaces that adjoin the house with one wall, separated with sliding or swing
doors that lead directly indoors. Other patios are sited in yards and have
nothing more than a top covering (roof) and a paved floor. And yet, there are
semi-enclosed patio rooms with two or three walls/dividers. One wall may be
made of brick and adjoining the house and the other(s) enclosed with decorative
enclosure materials. This may range from canvas to decorative lattice wood
partitions.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"><span style="font-family: arial;">There are also fully enclosed ones like courtyards and piazzas.
They are more secluded and specifically designed to be private. Balcony patios
are found from the first floor to the top floor and/or penthouse in high-rise
apartments. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Your outdoor room is a part of your landscape. It should be set
up in such a way that it serves as a comfortable and relaxing recreational
area. A place where you can get-away from the indoor chatter, entertain a few
friends or have candle-lit dinners.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"><span style="font-family: arial;"> <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"><span style="font-family: arial;">To create this kind of area in your residence only requires you
to turn you’re the outdoor room into a cozy garden, a part of nature, and
aesthetically pleasing sight. It should set a perfect stage as an outdoor
leisure room enhanced with potted foliage, flowers, outdoor furniture and
furnishings, and appropriate lighting. And because this space forms a part of
your scenery, large or small, it is best designed to complement the entire
landscape.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><br /></p>
<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"><span style="font-family: arial;">There are numerous ways you can create a garden out of your
patio and make it versatile for any activity you desire of it. So, depending on
the size of its area and its volume, you can use it in many different ways.
Listed below, you will find easy-to-create and budget-friendly garden patio
design ideas. One or more of them can help you find inspiration, or better
still, stir up your creative juices. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><br /></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm;"></p><ol style="text-align: left;"><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>Flooring</b> - Your patio garden needs a floor finish. The choice
depends on the look you want. Use faux grass to create a green lawn effect. Or
pave it with any patio flooring materials like stone, bricks, or oven bamboo
wood flooring if your patio has a roof covering. Wood flooring is not ideal for
yard patios.</span></span></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;">Enclosure</b><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"> - You may want to semi-enclose your outdoor leisure
room. To do this, add a patio privacy screen made from natural materials that
complement the outdoors. Bamboo, wood lattice, woven mats, wood slats,
wrought-iron frame trellis, or an imposing hedge wall are good examples. The
hedge can be natural or faux outdoor plants. These will make great backdrops
for your garden.</span></span></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;">Planters</b><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"> - Create rectangular planting pockets around the patio
perimeter to serve as a boundary. You can also have an island planter and plant
a tree or flowering plants. Boundary plant can be tall growing plants while the
island can have low to medium height flowering plants. Plants can be grown on
the floor level or elevated using rectangular, square, or circular pots made
from wood slats.</span></span></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;">Trellis </b><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;">- Create a focal point with a tall wood or iron trellis.
Add creeping plants or flowering vines. This can serve as a patio partition.
Works well with open-backyard patios. </span></span></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;">Bench</b><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"> seats - Create dual-purpose bench seating around the
perimeter. Can serve for seating and/or multi-sizes potted plants display.
Designing the benches in varying heights adds some drama to the setup.</span></span></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;">Plant troughs</b><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"> - Arrange concrete plant troughs of varying
heights and sizes (square or round) to create a perimeter. Grow bright and
colourful annual plants like roses, violas, petunias, and pansies. If the patio
adjoins the building, create this arrangement on two sides of the wall. Leave
an opening to serve as the walk-through pathway.</span></span></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;">Racks and shelves</b><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"> - Create a vertical herb garden. Grow
different herbs in small attractive pots and display them on racks or shelves.
Use terracotta pots or any other types of containers of your choice. Ensure
that they add colour to space. Alternatively, you can plant dwarf cacti, mini
plants, and other colourful succulent floras.</span></span></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;">Hangers</b><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"> - For small patio floor spaces, create ceiling beams to
hang planters of various sizes at varying levels. Keep the lower hanging
planters away from the walk-path. You want to avoid hitting your head while
passing through. Hang the higher ones above headroom height. Suitable for
patios from the second floor up.</span></span></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;">Water features</b><span style="color: #0e101a;"><span style="font-size: 16pt;"> - Add a floor water feature with built-in lights. </span><span style="font-size: 21.3333px;">Fiberglass</span><span style="font-size: 16pt;"> models that look like stone and rock fountains fit in well with
landscapes and work well on patios. You can use a table top version if you so
desire. It will still give you that garden with rushing water feel. </span></span></span></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;">Dug-out planters</b><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"> - For large patios, you can go dramatic. Give
it some character with square, triangular, or circular pockets dug out from the
paved floor. They can be arranged symmetrically or asymmetrically. Plants like
the African iris, Azania’s or snapdragons can be planted in each pocket. They
will grow their roots directly into the soil.</span></span></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;">Lighting</b><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"> - Light up your patio garden creatively. Choose
lights that illuminate the space, especially if you have outdoor entertaining
often. Commercial grade draped string lights are great for the outdoors, just
like battery-operated dancing flame torches, pendant lights, wall sconces, and
down lights. Add a few mood lights like lanterns and battery-operated candle
lights. </span></span></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;">Natural shade</b><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"> - Accentuate the patio with a shade-producing tree
planted in a large wooden tub or half-barrel. It can also serve as a screen
against the wind in winter and excessive sun exposure in the summer and add a
lush look to the patio. For any untidy structural elements, dead ends, or drab
corners, arrange a cluster of potted plants to conceal them.</span></span></li></ol><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiet6mXO-fhyESoZGZIlUlP4rIT8nBRgDrhLgizQA5Vpf62q-UzV9Qw4c3kLegzIDkrPFaIKrepv5aQbNWKYFfxUK0Kd0mY2dC8iF6gmbNcX_OEdBMhOqp9_7FyV0jKJRqB1vfrX8MRVT80/s1196/patio+garden1.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1138" data-original-width="1196" height="608" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiet6mXO-fhyESoZGZIlUlP4rIT8nBRgDrhLgizQA5Vpf62q-UzV9Qw4c3kLegzIDkrPFaIKrepv5aQbNWKYFfxUK0Kd0mY2dC8iF6gmbNcX_OEdBMhOqp9_7FyV0jKJRqB1vfrX8MRVT80/w640-h608/patio+garden1.png" width="640" /></a></div></span></div>

plants on your patio garden. Grow them in a couple of decorative pots to repel
mosquitoes in the summer. </span></span></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;">With outdoor lighting, remember that</span><strong style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"> </strong><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;">a
little light goes a long way at night.</span><strong style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"> </strong><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;">So, complement the
landscape rather than detract from it. </span></span></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt;"><span style="font-family: arial;">To conform beautifully to the entire outdoor space, floor the
patio with natural stone, pavers, ceramic tiles, red or brown bricks, smooth

choose. You do not want a patio that will eventually end up looking wild,

You do not want your patio to appear unplanned and end up resembling a forest

manicured, well thought out garden, you may end up finding over-planting
unappealing.</span></span></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt; text-indent: -18pt;"><span style="font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal;"> </span></span><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 16pt; text-indent: -18pt;">Using

Because as we age,
we need less space to live. Now is the time to think about selling the family
house and getting something smaller as there’s no point in having more space
than required. Find out how to make a small house a dream home? </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5w2_AZ4l0WJoxXoG_Ay9wsvkGPjeFgR2fhkcxwsccD5BL4zHafvSlz2exrgMaMfDsVJ-5WuOl98KO8leRQyTGvzhYMm26EiaoQn4zUOznVD7Ob_3XjLNKgi8lvorc_oz1RlMhZEsYDNki/s754/downsized+living1.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="447" data-original-width="754" height="379" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5w2_AZ4l0WJoxXoG_Ay9wsvkGPjeFgR2fhkcxwsccD5BL4zHafvSlz2exrgMaMfDsVJ-5WuOl98KO8leRQyTGvzhYMm26EiaoQn4zUOznVD7Ob_3XjLNKgi8lvorc_oz1RlMhZEsYDNki/w640-h379/downsized+living1.png" width="640" /></a></span></div><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14pt;"><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14pt;">Small home plans and house designs are popularly sought after by empty
nesters and retirees because they have attained an age where they no longer
need to live in a large family house. Children are grown up and have moved away
to start their own lives. And now, unused rooms in the home have become more of
a liability than a necessity.</span></p></span></span><p></p>

downsized living. Times are different, and they don’t want to hold on to more
than they need. First, it is not cost-effective and secondly, living in a
half-occupied house can bring on a sense of loss and emptiness. So, what better
time to build or buy a moderately-sized house than now.</span></span></p>

Liberation and a time to explore and rediscover life. It is a time to do the
things once desired but never done. A time to resume a long-forgotten hobby, go
back to school, learn a craft, travel, write some books, and move into your
small dream home. The children’s bedrooms, bathrooms, playroom, and workroom
are now redundant. You do not need so much space anymore.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></p>

course of their lives. The big house can be sold off, most likely with a
sizeable profit. With this disposable income, empty nesters can provide for a
brighter future with a better lifestyle.</span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></p>

low-maintenance and energy-efficient. Being smaller than what many empty
nesters have been used to practice all their lives does not mean giving up on
luxury touches. The fact is, now that you are planning to live in a more
compact residence, you can afford to splash out on a bit of luxury, more than
you could ever have dreamed. </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

Because they are middle-aged, empty nesters should consider living in a
one-level house than a one-storey building. A house with a staircase will
require going up and down the stairs several times a day. Something that is not
advisable as we grow older.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 14pt;">Living in an apartment or condo is fine.
There are elevators to take you to higher flats. However, within the apartment,
there must be no stairs. So, for those boomers planning to downsize, it’s best
to build (or buy) a bungalow or at most a house with a split-level interior.</span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 14pt;">If, however, a one-storey building is
the preferred choice, it is not a bad idea. The master bedroom and living areas
must be on the ground floor and the second bedroom sited on the upper floor.
The room on the upper floor can serve as the guest suite.</span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">It is good to remember that as we age,
challenges set in for some. Age-related ailments, physical challenges, and
disabilities demand that we keep all our indoor activities to one floor. And
for access to the deck, patio, or pool garden, it must flow seamlessly from the
inside to the exterior. <o:p></o:p></span></span></span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true"><span style="font-family: inherit;">
</span></span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">At 60+, we love to laze in the sun, do some gardening, or
generally potter around outside, so, it is best to ensure that the design
allows for a wide clear walkway leading to the outdoors. And with no more than
a few steps leading up and down. With physical challenges, it is good to have a
ramp incorporated in the house for ease of movement indoors and outdoors. </span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

The list goes on. I cannot dare to imagine losing important stuff stored on my system or in the cloud. Wading through information is at the best of times, a chore.

While some will prefer to use as an all-in-one bullet journal (or bujo) where you can write, sketch, doodle, and input anything in, like to-do-lists, recipes, appointments, and work details, others prefer to have different notebooks for different functions or tasks. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">These types of business journals are called function-specific notebooks. However, it always boils down to which you prefer, how your choice works for you, and how you use it.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgM4P3T6e7zDZn_n7tsu-_Jmnpd3zOH8cdwsL458hl9HrxS__E-dExuuiK_pSOqPcusc1j7bdV-ZhVq-YqSP6promgozJJvCN9yYeI219EmWXUwW1Bd9w08d8806v3VmBfj8ZIaxxpkoDpR/s2048/BOOK+15+COVER+mockups.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1497" data-original-width="2048" height="469" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgM4P3T6e7zDZn_n7tsu-_Jmnpd3zOH8cdwsL458hl9HrxS__E-dExuuiK_pSOqPcusc1j7bdV-ZhVq-YqSP6promgozJJvCN9yYeI219EmWXUwW1Bd9w08d8806v3VmBfj8ZIaxxpkoDpR/w640-h469/BOOK+15+COVER+mockups.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div>

As an interior designer or interior decorator, have you ever wondered how it will be like to have a work diary or journal that is interior-design specific? Many of us have the odd notebook to take our site measurements, do quick sketches, doodle, or even illustrate some feature for prospective clients or employers. We almost all have that all-in-one book with information, ideas, goals, schedules, quick sketches and the lot, all over the pages in a not-so-organised manner.<br /></div>

And if you are an art fanatic that loves to draw, sketch, doodle, and/or colour interior design and décor illustrations, function-specific interior design bullet journals, diaries, sketchbooks and precise notebooks are good to have. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">“<a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B089TS38Y2">Interior Design Writing Journal and Sketchbook with Adult Coloring Pages</a>” is an interior design writing journal, a planner, an organizer, sketchbook, and adult colouring book all rolled into one.

Professional interior designers, beginner designers, and students of interior design require some basic tools to work efficiently and successfully, and while the needs of the veterans in the industry may differ from what an interior student may require, there are still some basic tools that both the experts, the novices and others who fall in-between need to have in their arsenal of business implements. <br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5yY7mW8mj35eFW896e8HE7k49FJpqe-Ono_WrE39KV3TkzWEMLiK8IiF-ymiq3yCuuKESXZzHKeX12wvyMPybLBvJL1X_LfPoFTI4Sh0MgkxoxnlBTQbDFmnxKbc4JL6N3IxJDLS6PQoG/s1008/BOOK+7+COVER.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0px;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1008" data-original-width="700" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5yY7mW8mj35eFW896e8HE7k49FJpqe-Ono_WrE39KV3TkzWEMLiK8IiF-ymiq3yCuuKESXZzHKeX12wvyMPybLBvJL1X_LfPoFTI4Sh0MgkxoxnlBTQbDFmnxKbc4JL6N3IxJDLS6PQoG/s640/BOOK+7+COVER.jpg" /></a></div> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;">So, what exactly does an interior designer use as tools of the trade, and which of them are more useful to all, than others? </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

In this book, you will discover some of the most vital tools and implements you may need as a professional in the industry. <br />
<br />

Challenges. Issues. Solutions.<div style="text-align: justify;">Do you know that as an interior designer, you can work as an interior design project manager? If you are less inclined to the creative aspect of interior design but still wish to be a part of the industry, have you ever considered project management services?</div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnt4mRo6WwdGkTC4azhnOmRRj0OLNa4IXu8gYEZlo5GVWMOhrcSsMZozIt73-s5YdZ_4W_M_cQXt9gvyvCyhOdyZ0c3KkkLFvZLyGCoast1c3KUE7DdgbPTP_bITTjrRDpACmxeSpOGdll/s1159/interior+design+project+manager.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1098" data-original-width="1159" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnt4mRo6WwdGkTC4azhnOmRRj0OLNa4IXu8gYEZlo5GVWMOhrcSsMZozIt73-s5YdZ_4W_M_cQXt9gvyvCyhOdyZ0c3KkkLFvZLyGCoast1c3KUE7DdgbPTP_bITTjrRDpACmxeSpOGdll/s320/interior+design+project+manager.png" width="320" /></a></div> </div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you feel clients do not need the services of an interior design project manager to manage their projects, then you are mistaken. Many clients, especially the corporate ones, don’t have the time to oversee their complex or not-so-complex design projects and although some may leave it totally in the hands of the interior designer that created the concept and did the design works (and hope for the best); when it comes to managing a complex project, it is best to employ the services of an independent management team.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Not all interior design projects require project management services. For instance, smaller projects like interior upgrades – kitchens, bathrooms, storage solutions, minor renovations, etc..., may not require the services of an independent project manager, but larger and more-complex building and interior construction tasks do. Such complex tasks that are majorly commercial projects include (but are not limited to) the following:</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Real estate and property developers </b>– Major stakeholders in the building industry who acquire land for residential or commercial development, plan and manage the construction process, and the selling or leasing of properties to end-buyers.<br /><br /><b>Architects and engineers</b> – While an architect focuses more on the art and design of a building, an engineer focuses more on the technical and structural aspects of construction.<br /><br /><b>Construction industry</b> – In the interior design category of the construction sector, interior construction, renovations, alterations, restorations and building repairs are some of the areas that require project management services.<br /><br /><b>Clients with large or complex interior design projects</b> – These are mainly commercial design projects. Examples include designs of restaurants, bars, shopping malls, hotels, motels, etc...<br /><br /><b>Building contractors</b> – They are general contractors mainly responsible for erecting a structure/building project within a budget and on time. Building contractors can be involved in anything from re-modelling a residential building to building a new structure from scratch.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Project Management Requires a Variety of Skills</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Project management is not necessarily an easy and straightforward task though. It requires a variety of skills that only a professional can offer. But the good thing is that if you are a professional interior designer, it is more than likely that you have these skills because you are already familiar with the ‘terrain’ of the profession which includes responsibilities like defining the scope of work, planning, budgeting, organizing, accounting, team management, procurements, workers safety which includes their health, and welfare requirements.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
An interior design project manager must not only satisfy all client needs but he or she must also create a comfortable and conducive environment for those who will occupy the interior space after all works are completed. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, what are the major challenges and problems faced by an interior design project manager, how can such difficulties be avoided, and if they do, how do you solve them? This interior design handbook – will instruct you on how to overcome the challenges of interior design project management and how to avoid failures caused by unclear plans and objectives”. </div>

However, it can be a lucrative venture if you approach it in a strictly business-like manner, no matter the scale of your operations.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH-Ugs5MrMyDnkG5s6hL5LgHdrEIoHnjPZnfoxnkxrr2K6Pl0P1Ci9_qWbnjknG1VukkaQHK66bP4MK5r9wypI9kJOkJ_f60kNIHqaIQuvFE2MKtm-hn9beHqaz0LrYiJId-ohdoevVtxYNo8k3Xl2Eur7UKDdfAErl1cmkCsr3JYAx272sgqcXrff9A/s1581/Niche%20Specific%20Interior%20Design%20Business%20Ideas-front.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1581" data-original-width="1141" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH-Ugs5MrMyDnkG5s6hL5LgHdrEIoHnjPZnfoxnkxrr2K6Pl0P1Ci9_qWbnjknG1VukkaQHK66bP4MK5r9wypI9kJOkJ_f60kNIHqaIQuvFE2MKtm-hn9beHqaz0LrYiJId-ohdoevVtxYNo8k3Xl2Eur7UKDdfAErl1cmkCsr3JYAx272sgqcXrff9A/s320/Niche%20Specific%20Interior%20Design%20Business%20Ideas-front.png" width="231" /></a></div>

<div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B081TQQNY3" style="text-align: justify;"><i>Niche-Specific Interior Design Business Ideas</i></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">
It is so delightful and satisfying when an interior concept you develop on paper is brought to reality. It is also fulfilling when you see the expression of delight and satisfaction on your client's face. But the interior design profession goes beyond home decorating, interior upgrades, renovations, and procurement of materials on behalf of clients. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There are a great number of top-earning niches in the interior design industry; call them sub-categories if you wish. Some of these niches are best described as specialized fields and each field has its own sub-niches too. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Many aspiring interior designers fail to recognise them. They fail to realise how profitable a niche or sub-niche might be for their interior design business. And for the Jill (or Jack)-of-all-trades, avoid getting enmeshed in every aspect of the profession by doing anything from general interior décor tasks and window treatments to choosing furniture, lights, and gutting an interior for remodelling purposes. When you lack focus and accept any interior design or decoration job that comes along, it may become a sure-fire way of working under stressful conditions and losing revenue.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In this book, you will find many career and job opportunities you can choose from. So, forget the not-so-true fact that interior design is strictly limited to the interior spaces of buildings. There are many more viable and gainful ways interior designers can increase the profitability of their businesses.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Think of the dozens of things that come to play in residential and commercial interior design and find the one you think you’ll excel most in. Focus on a couple of related areas, or better still, on a standalone niche. Remember; some of the best job opportunities in the industry remain mostly for interior designers working in specialized interior design niches.</div>

Many interior designers are guilty of not drawing up and signing a contract agreement document with their clients before a project begins. And some of us who have been in the interior design business for many years still overlook this very important aspect of the client/employer relationship. Well after a few nasty issues, I’ve wizened up to the fact that ignoring this advice is “at your own peril”.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJGuEdWrbW1GBJHBy1dSEsT225flh8YhH9o4d2532SzIYTlKhECvXBw-LBMBq2QexZBvbhDmDutdFuU7bQZuAUufFH3SOj6sc4hlR2AkC2GtNokWA4UjL9265NoS29Z3L3WSfwNdgwAHejrb8_-JQh5amxEf_mIOETDkUyJs4TIj1AVpguvsdxtxSCGA/s2500/BOOK%202%20COVER.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2500" data-original-width="1563" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJGuEdWrbW1GBJHBy1dSEsT225flh8YhH9o4d2532SzIYTlKhECvXBw-LBMBq2QexZBvbhDmDutdFuU7bQZuAUufFH3SOj6sc4hlR2AkC2GtNokWA4UjL9265NoS29Z3L3WSfwNdgwAHejrb8_-JQh5amxEf_mIOETDkUyJs4TIj1AVpguvsdxtxSCGA/s320/BOOK%202%20COVER.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07ZVYPZQH">Important Clauses to Add to An Interior Design Contract Agreement</a></i> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;">The interior design business is just as important as any other business but some designers seem to forget this because the profession is an exciting one and are therefore prone to work on tasks with an I-enjoy-doing-this mindset. But this is wrong because you are not only in the business to make money, you are also in it to ensure the successful execution of every job you do, big or small.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
From experience, I find that most clients are great to work with, and some fabulous client-designer relationships have developed into long-lasting friendships too. However, while some clients can be overtly difficult or outright impossible to work with, some interior designers don’t deliver as promised either, and this after much sugar-coated selling to a fascinated unsuspecting client. <br />
<br />
To avoid running into troubled waters and potential litigations, it is best to have a signed pact between both designer and client. This way, everything is well documented and clear-cut before the project begins. <br />
<br />
The contract agreement need not be anything complex that’s full of technical mumbo-jumbo. All that’s required are a few important clauses that are interior design-related. And if you have ever been in doubt about the importance of contract agreements and what clauses are vital to include, this book explains what is required, and why. <br />
<br />
Some of these clauses protect not only you as a designer, but also your client as well. So, in the event that there is disagreement or dispute between both parties, a formal letter of the agreement becomes the saving grace. And as long as everything is spelt out in clear terms and both parties have signed it, neither of you will be held legally responsible for any action or inaction.<br />

And, you don’t have to draw up an interior design contract agreement if you don’t know how to. You don’t need to employ the services of a legal practitioner if you aim to save a lot of money either. Most of today’s interior designers now opt for downloadable ready-to-use interior design contract agreement templates. They are affordable, simple to adapt, and print-ready. There are free ones available too but I’ll advise against using the free versions as they have many limitations. </div>

This question is relevant to both interior designers and their clients. To an interior designer, knowing how to bill a client for a potential contract that they hope to get, without over-billing or under-charging can be somewhat challenging. As a professional interior designer, I know the dilemma of trying to charge reasonably without shooting myself in the foot. I know I am not alone.<div><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3TQre4QxcFpDHviz0vJZLE2JPUsqcJWUGhxEnO-PggVTQ45ItBzzdYDWzAelBtWYX6D4So1mufPzJ6yLwZjazs72WOfYRf0Ota1KROrukqfk3L0AxOBfw-H5DtVRBjrrNGh51SK9diyj1N3G8LCCf_5QUYdqot_oQ82bV-a8BEnpM-wj47p-0u8PhgQ/s1571/How%20Interior%20Designers%20Charge%20-%20front.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1571" data-original-width="1077" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3TQre4QxcFpDHviz0vJZLE2JPUsqcJWUGhxEnO-PggVTQ45ItBzzdYDWzAelBtWYX6D4So1mufPzJ6yLwZjazs72WOfYRf0Ota1KROrukqfk3L0AxOBfw-H5DtVRBjrrNGh51SK9diyj1N3G8LCCf_5QUYdqot_oQ82bV-a8BEnpM-wj47p-0u8PhgQ/s320/How%20Interior%20Designers%20Charge%20-%20front.png" width="219" /></a></div><br /> <i><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0991FG3V7" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">How Interior Designers Charge for Their Services</a></i> </div><br />And then there are the clients. Most clients don’t know what to expect. Many people believe that interior designers come very expensive and would not even dare to think about employing the services of one. Some ask why they need a designer’s input when they can do it all by themselves; the DIY enthusiasts of course. <br /> <br />But what happens when you have a project that does require the input of a professional designer? Something more complex like renovations or partial upgrades; interior design works that require design layouts, blueprints, 3D drawings, etc...? How about the not-so-complex tasks like a kitchen or bathroom upgrade on a budget or upgrading a dull drab living room?<br /> <br /> There are many ways that an interior designer can charge for services rendered and this book (also available as an ebook), will show you how. In this book, you’ll find different billing structures. There will be at least a couple of pricing structures that will work best for you and your interior design business.<br /> <br /> So whether you are a client who wants to be sure and happy about the way you are being billed, a designer that plans to start up an interior design business or you are already a practising interior designer who wants to avoid costly mistakes that will either make you lose revenue (despite your hard work) or, at best, allow you to just break even, you will be glad you got this book that comes in both digital and paperback forms.<div> <br />

<br />
<h3>
Reasons Why Slate Kitchen Countertops Are Popular</h3>
<ol>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Slate worktops have a distinctly handsome appearance with its elegant and classic look.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">The natural stone which comes in hues of blue-black, grey, and muted black blends beautifully with any style of decor - traditional, contemporary, or ultra-modern. Slate also comes in a variety of shades of red, brown, deep purple, blue, and dark green.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Slate is known to be non-porous, which makes it resistant to oils, food stains, and juices. Its surface is impermeable.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">It is estimated to have a life-span of close to a century. </li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">This material does not encourage the growth of bacteria. This quality makes it an excellent anti-bacterial kitchen worktop material.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">It is a much better alternative to marble kitchen counters because it does not absorb stains and does not dull with age.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Slate can’t be shined or polished to a glazed finish like marble or granite. Rather, its beauty really lies in its unique natural rustic look. </li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Slate is a hardy material and will not easily chip or get scratches.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">If you use soft-slate as opposed to the hard-slate, scratches may occur but if or when they do, it can be rubbed out easily with a smooth hard-surfaced implement.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">It a dream choice of architects, interior designers and many homeowners for high-end kitchen designs.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">It is very easy to maintain and only requires cleaning like you will for other natural stone worktops. <span class="st">There isn't any need to use special cleaners (mild soap and a damp cloth are best used).</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"> I<span class="ILfuVd yZ8quc">t stands up very well to heat, so you can place your hot pans on its surface without worrying about marring your countertop.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span class="ILfuVd yZ8quc">Compared to granite and marble kitchen worktops, slate countertops are much less expensive.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span class="ILfuVd yZ8quc">If you don't particularly care for granite or marble worktops because of their bold (sometimes subtle) streaky patterns which can be overtly busy-looking, the slate stone with its stellar looks is a great alternative.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">It has a more uniform appearance than its close relatives - granite, marble, and quartz.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">It is now an on-trend kitchen material with its rising popularity. With slate installed as your kitchen countertop, you will find it becomes a conversational point when people walk into your kitchen.</li>

<b>Tips:</b><br />
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">There are numerous cheap slate materials on the market that not only stain fairly easily, they also tend to fade and de-laminate, especially if they are at cut-throat prices, so it is good to beware of the cheaper versions.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">To get the best quality slate kitchen worktop that will stand the test of time, it is best to buy natural slate that’s been smoothed with diamond-edged machines (using fine diamonds to abrade). These types come out in a beautiful matte finish.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">If you want to create that wet-glazy look that's typical of granite (s<span class="ILfuVd yZ8quc"><span class="ILfuVd yZ8quc NA6bn">late has a soft matte sheen), you can rub the surface with lemon or coconut oil.</span></span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span class="ILfuVd yZ8quc"><span class="ILfuVd yZ8quc NA6bn"> Slate worktops can have slightly brittle and sharp edges so it is recommended that you have them rounded-off to avoid household hazards or injuries. </span></span></li>
</ul>

Roman shades are modern and stylish window treatments made from fabric. Categorised as soft window treatments, Roman shades can be used to add a stylish minimalist theme to an interior space.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Unlike blinds, shades have no adjustable vanes or slats that help you adjust for daylight filtering, rather, they came in various types with different levels of opacity.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Roman shades offer a clean, smooth look that is elegant without being overbearing, like heavy curtains and drapes. Its streamlined look works well with rooms that have small to medium-sized windows. This doesn’t go to say that you can’t use them for wider windows. However, with wider windows, you may need to install two or three Roman shade panels.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
How you install Roman shades depends on the type of windows you have. If you have beautiful window openings with mouldings, trims, and elaborate sills, then it's best to fit them inside the window. This will keep the architectural details in view. However, if you have non-descript or plain windows typical of modern homes, it is better to mount the shades on the outside of the window frame.</div>
