Building elegant boxes in Washington DC

Building elegant boxes in Washington DC

by Abun Sanda, executive summary by Denis IBS

Seen casually, his building in Washington DC is not charming. The average of seven to twelve floors, the building does not offer exceptional impression. In the era of Mao Zedong, the buildings in Beijing, PRC resembles many buildings in the U.S. capital. Not too towering, and the average in its boxes.

However, the problem p else if we look at buildings in Washington DC to look more carefully. Building in Washington DC with the order more carefully. The building is not merely window boxes, but it is much more than that. The entire building was established with a very strong construction, and expected to survive ata four seasons for more than 500 years. When viewed up close, it seems clear that the materials used are of high quality materials.

The design of the building cool, very effective lighting system makes the contents of the building but without the bright lights are supported. Glass windows are used very soundproof, so the noise on the highway does not infiltrate into the building. The walls using interesting carvings on the walls of marble and granite are very classy. Interior and exterior building average enthralling. There is a combination of a small statue placed in the walls, carved on the walls and bold carved plaque on the wall, and some interesting carvings on the walls. Each detail of the building is done with very high taste.

One day, I had entered the building of world bank to meet  World Bank Managing Director, Sri Mulyani Indrawati. Building, as other buildings, always in the form of a typical Washington, DC, checkered. However, upon entering the building, immediately feel how elegant building. Lighting systems that create an aura of genius in a very spectacular building. Employees who work sitting behind a computer desk is always looking fresh. Sri Mulyani any workspace, even though the light is not lit, still bright and shiny-sheen.

Then in the glass window, duuh, always perching plants in colorful pots. Truly captivating scenery around the window boxes. So I wonder, in passing the building facade of the boxes is like desert weeds. However, after a closer look, he is a very sparkling diamonds exposed to the sun. She pearl of great worth attached anywhere.

How would like to see the buildings in Jakarta are tastefully done. Packed with all her feelings. Of course a lot of buildings that meet the criteria that I mentioned earlier. However, what we wanted to see this city full of buildings built with very high quality. Very high quality can be built with simple, but behind the simplicity is still stored majesty, and "prestige" of a building.

Often times we do not realize this problem. We like the home woke up, such as building houses at random. Alternatively, rows of shophouses that truly reflects the shallowness of taste. We often forget, the beauty of homes and buildings aktratif least one of the determinants of a city.

PROPERTY PERSPECTIVE

WINDOW GOOD unsightly

by : Abunsanda executive summary by : Denis L.S.

WHAT IS the meaning of the window? There are many meanings depending on where we look at it. Most of us see it as the eye wall. Most no longer see the window as a means to look at the outside world, give meaning very meaningful for a house. Imagine how odd a home or office that is not entirely windowless. Think also how good it was residents of the house if the house has only one door, no windows and vents at all.

Hence the meaning of such a window is important, developers are always racing to make a very good window. There are made with full ornaments, plain, plain, and there are also of reinforced glass. The bones that make more eye-catching windows, and more robust.

In European cities, such as the Lucerne, Paris, Strasbourg, Berlin, Rome and Amsterdam, developers like to create a window that looked artistic. The window still remains rectangular. That which distinguishes it from others is the way that window dressing. There is a leafy, without doors, but only to the extent or leafy accessories. Other developers to make a window of glass reinforced, or a window that is made slightly protrudes into the rear, to appear more elegant.

A part of developers make a little space and adhesives for the colorful flowers in the window, so even though the glass windows and sills are not luxurious, but because there upright flower variety of colors, shades into another altogether. Some other developers to load the statue on the side, above or below the window so the window is not just a window but a facility that membutat far more lively atmosphere.

Interestingly, most cities in Europe always provides a way of field so that both cars, motorcycles and bicycles a lot of peaceful coexistence on the road and sidewalk. Chic window will also be visible from here. The car drove smoothly, and on each side of the road there are cyclists rode with relaxed.

If we view from afar this atmosphere, will create an illustration of a peaceful life, with attractive window as the background. They practically give it rower bike exotic color on the highway because its presence gives the line is very dominant. Imagine, in a very modern city, with houses and the windows are cool, there is beautiful scenery on the highway: bikes go hand in hand with luxury cars and super sophisticated. Fantasies we fly everywhere.

We are eager to see the sights like this is also in Jakarta and other cities in Indonesia. But of course we do not have to dream of copying a view that, because we have own style which is not less interesting. The problem is, we often do not give a significant portion of attention to the existence of the window. We are unaware about the beauty of the window, so ignore it .. It would be nice if we more carefully selecting frame shape, leaf shape and size the window glass. Good also when we give here sweeteners, such as ornaments, and small sculptures are beautiful.

We also wanted in between the roar of a luxury vehicle and battered, in between the hustle and bustle of city buses and motorcycles noising, we can still see a number of handsome and beautiful people pedaling bicycles on highways. How we longed to see the various types of motor vehicles for peaceful coexistence with the bike. As background, a house or building that has a door, the window was stunning.
