Therefore, if color is used on a surface object, the color can influence our impressions of these objects, although it is not the original objects that have the impression it meant. For example, a plastic door panels, colored chocolate to give us a visual impression that the door as if made of wood, especially when added to the impression of wood veins, then the wood impression even stronger.

What is seen by our eyes as the impression of a wooden surface, a combination of textures and colors of wood, which can be seen and palpated

Texture is a pattern of three-dimensional surface structure. Surfaces usually have a certain texture, as well as building materials. Usually building materials that naturally have a rough texture that shows its natural character. While artificial materials have a smoother texture. Although it may be made with a rough texture. Obvious example is the texture difference when rneraba rough wood surfaces, or when feeling the smooth glass surface. Texture known to man usually has special qualities of texture that have been identified, for example, humans can easily distinguish the texture of wood or glass with only the view or feel him. This is a recognition (recognition) of visual perception or grope supported by previous experiences of a texture object. Texture can affect various colors and materials impression

Texture of gravel, the texture of the surface obtained after the combined collection of pebbles in the bed of the surface soil

Texture is also obtained from the arrangement or pattern perletakan materials. For example: sand or gravel is the texture. Wooden planks arranged as well menimbulkari stacking texture. This is because the texture is formed o! Er patterns of layout objects, which because of recurrent (usually in small-scale pattern can be seen by humans) cause texture. These patterns can be a regular texture patterns, such as texture tile small boxes, while other patterns are irregular patterns, such as gravel expanse texture or rough wood surfaces.

Texture in interior design of a house in Japan, feel the texture looks very original. That gives the impression of the original materials and impressive.

Fine example, details in Bajangratu Gate Temple, with many symbols made inside relief. Aside of building presence that exist until now with some restoration, the temple is not only attractive from its monumental size and proportion, but also visually attractive with interesting corners even from the nearest distance.

Attractive not only visually appealing, but also attractive because observer can be triggered to understand many visual phenomena, like form, symbols, and details.

Buildings in Majapahit have mystical trace that is incomparable with ‘modern’ buildings, even the terminology would not be well known in western literature. And to ‘experience’ the feeling that happens because of the trace, there is no other way than visiting the site and feel the space, the solids and voids.

Valuable lesson from visiting the old sites is seeing and knowing how ancient societies build their building. Visiting the site also help us understand the space that may give inspiration when designing.

Detail as a part of Nusantara (Indonesian) traditional architecture is less used in the euphoria of ‘modern’ architecture, whereas modern architecture had been declared ‘dead’ by Jencks, and ‘less is more’ by Meis Van der Rohe had been ‘less is bore’ by Venturi. Detail presence in temple buildings become the main power beside the all form of building. This makes detail as an attractive visual pleasure aside of symbolism contained to give more value of historical information through figures.

It is very much a pleasure to know that detail presence is a bridge to continue tradition in modern context. Simply because detail is a part of traditional architecture (especially in Indonesia). And it is a pleasure to explore new architecture technology in detail.

That is why detail use needs to be thought as a step for historical preservation, simply because detail has been a part of traditional architecture. Detail in here is local vocabulary that become a part of modern construction.

This is possible as part of ‘infiltration’ of traditional architecture inside modern architecture, making aliened ideas as the side effect of modern architecture coming into a new level of postmodernism. Image from detail can be an added value of visual image of building, that will add more value to its observer. This because human is creature with emotion, feeling and subjective memory and a will to interpret space to form future memory.

We can not replace memory of being in a certain place, with seeing picture in books or magazine. Because all sensation related to space will only be perfected if the observer present in the space (like mentioned in the book “Merah Putih Arsitektur Nusantara” or Red White Nusantara Architecture, written by Galih Widjil Pangarsa). Even so, observer’s behavior will determine interpretation of architecture object. This will determine whether an observer will appreciate an architecture object or not.

From perception, there might be interest to temple buildings in Majapahit. The reality is, an old building can be more interesting than the new one. This is like comparing an old remain of the Majapahit with new mall building, for instance. Inside a mall, there are interesting objects that may bring amusement, especially because technology has been able to make new architecture ‘candies’.

By my experience, architecture and the existing space can trigger an interest to this kind of old architecture. Not like the perception that exist in the presence of space, meaning, symbol, details and other things. Of course, there is a difference of touching a wall that was made centuries ago, compared with modern glass wall. In this case, there is a difference of aesthetic value, and this will determine understanding of architectural object in different context, in other word, the ability to be interested in an architectural object.

In iconography context, there are many vocabularies can be ‘seed’ to tradition, or without being too extreme, a strong vocabulary of local values.

To bring icon of the past into present time is not impossible, for instance the one done by Renzo Piano with Tjibau Cultural Center, in Noumea, New Caledonia. This iconography brought new context of vernacular Kanak house architecture, creating aesthetic and beautiful new architecture that has a connection with local values.

Square mirror, when displayed alone, probably would not look attractive. Moreover, the small size. Different if some of these mirrors arranged into different forms.

In this picture, seven square mirror, measuring 20cmx20cm, arranged to form flowers. This mirror arrangement successfully decorate a blank wall, become more attractive.

Create your more daring and liked a more festive appearance, might have added color elements. Instead of a mirror, use colored glass. Can select one color or several colors add to combine. more dramatic light beam.

Mirror arrangement also does not have flowers, you know. You are free to be creative with the shape and size of the mirror. From now on try to think of what is desired. And then design, approximately how many fruits need a mirror. So there is time, you can immediately put them on a blank wall, in your home.

Interior designer, Marlene Setiyadi, in his book Living Inspirations, says that when we dress the space, knick-knacks can be used any favorites. Slightest detail can change the look of the room, from the monotonous so dynamic.

Interesting details can be obtained from a variety of accessories, flower vase, container candles, picture frames, cookie jars and even though. Silver candle container with contemporary design, can affirm the theme of modern makeup room. On the other hand, container candles with the same colors but classic design ornate tendrils, can give a touch of elegance to the room.

Create accent to the room by placing accessory bright colors. For example by placing a row of small containers of red candles, in a room dominated by such a cream. Or the pillows (cushion) orange and yellow, in the brown family room. All of this brightly colored accessories, spare rooms with neutral colors memorable monotone.

In addition to supporting the display room, knick-knacks are also giving a personal touch. Why? Because each form, design, and color is the choice of the owner’s house. Thus, every detail was going to “tell” how the taste and personality of the owner of the house

Not a few people like the mortar to their home decorating. Dimples provide a strong ethnic touch, because it is made of wood and often decorated with designs carved. Place it in the house, can bring rustic impression.

Many interesting ideas can be applied by using the mortar. One of them was able to make pots. Even to change the function of the mortar, we do not need in ways that extreme. Simply, place the plants in it. Allow native plants or artificial. Not only for the room, the pot mortar can be used also for outdoor.

In addition to the pot, mortar can also be used as a table. Way, simply add the glass on it. Glass may be placed just like that, but we recommend a glass table was bolted to the mortar so that the mortar is not easy to shift and fall.

Dimples are sold in various sizes. From the three-foot by nearly two meters. Before deciding to place the mortar in the room, do not forget to measure your room first, so that no one bought. Mortar made with different designs. Ornate carved or plain, given the finishing or not, and so on. To view rustic and antique, can choose a plain and not finishing. Enthusiasts ethnic appearance, can choose a fully carved and polished with a layer of varnish.

Though thick with ethnic or rustic style, suitable modification of the mortar is placed also in the modern style. In fact his presence, could be being created an eclectic style. Mmm .. the same eclectic mix of two styles or more mutually contradictory.

Circular flower arrangements, which we often find at the door of the house, as Christmas is called Christmas Wreath. Christmas accessories this one included in the tradition of welcoming guests (welcoming tradition). One look at this Wreath at the door, we immediately knew that the owner’s house was celebrating Christmas, and ready to welcome guests who want to celebrate together.

Christmas Wreath is made of native pine needles. To be more beautiful decorated with pine cone. Now, many are sold artificial christmas Wreath. Made of plastic with a variety of designs and colors. Because the plastic, artificial Wreath become more durable and can be stored for use again, at Christmas next year.

In general, people put Christmas Wreath as one of the elements to beautify the exterior of the house. But, not infrequently also the place as a decoration in the house. Not necessarily at the door, a circular wreath can be hung in the window well, or on the wall. At home in Europe or America, which used to have a fireplace, Christmas Wreath also hung over the fireplace.

Problem color, available various colors. That way, when he wanted to arrange Christmas decorations with the theme, which was selected. If you choose a green-red mixture as a theme, select a Wreath of the same themes. Or choose a white Wreath, to complete a white Christmas decorations. To be more beautiful, can also add tiny lights on your Wreath circuit.

Creating accents in the room, not always with the game colors, patterns can be interesting accent. You will recall, animal print motif could be a trend a few years ago. This much-loved motif for its ability to attract attention. Not only in the fashion world, in any home interior dressing, animal print motif can be eye catching accent.

Animal skin motifs suggest bold and confident. Just as the world dressing, animal print motifs suitable only worn by the character of their self-confidence. The problem, though few were applied, this motif is very easy to attract attention. This nature could be beneficial, can also be harmful. If not careful to apply it, might we actually see the room full and plebeian.

Animal skin motifs should be applied as an accent, not as a dominant motif. You can apply on carpets, sofas, cushions, or decorative pillows. One other thing to note, do not carelessly combine animal skin motifs. Tiger-skin motif combined with leopard skin pattern, for example. Both are fellow tiger, but the combination of these two motifs do not match, it makes the room look organized at random.

Each animal skin motif, the impression is different. Striped tiger-skin motif, or leopards, golden brown, may give the impression of luxury. While cowhide pattern, which is usually red and white, more suitable space was applied to a modern and minimalist style.

Ready to be different and attract attention? Good dressing room with animal print motifs.
