In that sense, Leroy Merlin is one step ahead of the competition. It just show presenting her new collection of doors, which must distinguish the interior doors and entry doors. The interior doors are where most can help you change the decoration. So you can go for a wide variety of models manufactured in materials as diverse as wood, lacquer or glass. You can not forget step, which can be folding or glass doors. Regarding colors , white becomes the great protagonist of the collection. Light tones dominate because they are trend and give us more easily to combine different styles and composing spaces. In a nutshell, should emphasize that Leroy Merlin interior doors are ideal for a contemporary, classic or rusticstyle. Entrance doors also are asked to meet aesthetically, but the most important thing is not that, but that are secure and robust, capable of withstanding the inclemencies of the weather. Doors armoured, armoured, metal and solid are which can meet better in that sense. Without moving us from the entrance gates, Leroy Merlin has introduced an innovation that makes reference to the electronic sight glasses, which are like the life but with a digital performance that connects a camera to widen the field of view.

Icons of architecture I: Miguel Fisac Posted: 27 Nov 2013 12:48 AM PST Miguel Fisac revolutionized the architecture of our country-based research at the time that he sculpted and modelling the concrete in a way really poetic. Always understood the architecture as a set of several spaces for human actions, could almost be like a piece of humanized air. He sought answers to solve the problems observed and esto provided him with the right solution, always with a poetic touch that characterized him. His works prove it: the Center for biological research in Madrid in the year 1951, the Church of the Arcas Reales de Valladolid built in 1952 or the Jorba laboratories that are currently missing. Fisac was born in 1913 in Daimiel, Ciudad Real, and you always fascinated the world of architecture, completing his studies after the Civil War. During his younger years, he found a guide to modernity in the Scandinavian designers, impressed by the dehumanised and formalistic architecture. In the 1950s and while investigating new techniques and materials, materialised his reflections combining your taste for the Nordic and popular architecture. He was a virtuoso with the prestressed concrete and due their creations and to the revolution in the aspect of Spanish churches was known as the rebel architect. Also unveiled the architecture upside down, first constructing the building and subsequently throwing concrete, changing the sense of the construction that everyone knew. More than 60 years he devoted to his profession and precisely when the College of architects of Ciudad Real was creating a foundation to catalog the Fisac’s professional legacy, a stroke cut short its more than 90 years and his career, since he was working in his passion: the architecture.

House Colunata, pure geometry Posted: 27 Nov 2013 12:10 AM PST Many times we don’t think about the game that gives and the importance that has the geometry to give shape to a House. Today I discovered this wonderful house located in Lagos, Algarve, where geometry and nuclear white are the core of a modern and fresh design. The Portuguese architect Mario Martins gives life to this House, located in a rocky area by the sea, and designed so that the view are the most important thing there form and the use of glass in a recurrent manner. A home where peace of the surroundings is strained on all sides. When a House is built in an environment so pleasant is important to bear in mind the importance of visibility but also to give a shape to the House that you have specific views . This is what Mario Martins has managed with the Colunata House. With a curve along its facade that allows to have an incomparable view of the sea, the House fits the natural curve of the landscape and allows more glass-enclosed space where the glass becomes an indispensable when it comes to conceiving the project. With a few lines which are is if same very decorative, decoration of the House gives centre stage to the spaces. White is recurrent both abroad and in the interior and thanks to the glass and the color, the light bounces all over. Minimalist and modern, without stridency, decoration transmits serenity and relaxation making this home a perfect place to do nothing more than look at the infinite and enjoy the sound of the sea. Once inside, the curved lines are softened and are hidden to perfection so that the entire space becomes usable. A haven of peace.

A house in Lima Posted: 26 Nov 2013 09:45 PM PST In each of the projects carried out by the Longhi Architect Studio nature has always played a key role. On this occasion, a young couple went to his office to handle the design and construction of a house in which people will live forever and in that time had very clear that it would be a great opportunity in their pursuit of contemporary ancient architecture. The chosen place to House this House was the place where the couple lived with their two children, i.e., there was a House. Thus, the study was dedicated to demolish material, while retaining the spirit of the home, aiming to replace the old building with a “forever home”. The result was the following. To create this wonderful house, designer raised his work as if he had found a large rock ancestral in place that need to be carved. The result would be a dwelling consisting of a 4 car garage, patio, room service and exchangers for swimming pool in the basement, and kitchen, dining and living space on the first floor. In the interior spaces of the home, fixed, strong textured furniture, were generated by all complemented by natural and artificial materials with the objective of maintaining the allegory of the stone, which remains the most natural possible, giving the feeling of being part of the garden. Finally the composition, the designer told a black stone that supports four cantilevered volumes containing the intimate rooms, which are represented by the stones white floating. Would you like to live in a House like this forever? You leave with photographs of Juan Solano to think!

Something they must have thought Alrik Koudenburg and RJW Elsinga when designing this fantastic office design, belonging to the JWT advertising agency and located in Amsterdam (Netherlands).

The comic has undoubtedly been the inspiration of many of the decorative details of this space. In it, different works created by different artists, as the collective Dutch Kamp Horst and the Norwegian Anders Rockum, deliberate fill the walls and spaces with their enormous creativity and playful sense. But the surprises continue, and when visitors can not resist the temptation of exploring. Because there is much to see: impressive cabin with connecting to Skype, dividing screens in the form of typical houses of Amsterdam, or the silhouette of the most important writer in the Netherlands, created with the text of your page in Wikipedia.

Bolster seats upholstered chairs Posted: 26 Nov 2013 05:52 PM PST In furniture magazine have spoken on occasion of the art of the upholstery.The truth is that upholstered furniture such as sofas and armchairs is a job for professionals, but fix the seats of the chairs is not so complicated. And much less if that is most damaged is the interior support , while the padding and fabric are in good conditions. If the chairs in your House sink and you see how below begin to give, you can strengthen them easily and get to remain comfortable for a few more years. Do you want to know how? The first thing to do is to remove the burlap or chairs bottom of fabric which is usually coated. To do this, I advise that you get with a kickstand, an indispensable tool for upholstery work. It will be your best help for removing tacks and Staples, quickly and without hardly working. Under the Burlap, you will probably find classic straps criss-crossed that usually form the basis for the upholstery, mostly classic Spring systems. Straps is best not to remove them, since they are sewn docks that are the soul of the upholstery. Material for upholstery shops you will find girths made of various materials that you will serve to reinforce the seat. The most practical are the woven elastic, about 8-10 cm in width. To lift the seat back must be cut several straps and place cross-reviews at the base, stapling them with a bend to the wood with a gun stapler (electrics are those that work best). It is very important to tighten straps at bottom to keep the upholstery back to sink. When you’ve placed enough straps (usually suffice with seven interwoven strips, although this depends on the size of the seat), you can staple the burlap in place. Many times it is worth replace it with a new fabric, to leave the perfect job.
