Kitchen Modern Design


Sometimes referred to as the heart of the home, the kitchen is a place to prepare and cook food and, depending on the size, can be used to eat and entertain guests. In Ancient Greek homes, this room was a central open air patio but it was not until around 1800 that the stove, which enclosed fire completely, made cooking indoors possible.

 As technology advances, so do kitchens design and efficiency. The introduction of the kitchen island has lent more flexibility to the positioning of the kitchen cabinets and kitchen sink, and helped make open plan kitchens and dining rooms a reality.

Home Decorating is a hobby enjoyed by many people. If you want to place three identical houses side effects after having passed through the front door, each of them will look different. This is because each of them has its own style of Interior Decorating.

Your home décor is determined by the individual personalities of your family. If your husband is an avid fisherman, you probably will have a room somewhere in the house, which will advertise. Vintage decoys, mounted fish and other souvenirs to fishing will certainly occur somewhere. Home Decorating lends itself to the individual tastes of the occupants of a house.

Papercrete Block Construction

From Papercrete Block Construction
        Papercrete (aka fibrous cement) today is being rediscovered as a "new" alternative green building material. Papercrete has been termed by some as a "modern day adobe." Papercrete can be made into blocks or poured into forms to make a monolithic wall. The material is homemade and consists of paper (3 parts), clay/dirt and sand (2 parts), and Portland cement (1 part). The paper used can be almost anything; newspaper, junk mail, cardboard, etc. Sand or sandy dirt is usually found on site. Dried, ready-to-use papercrete has a rough surface. This increases its surface area and provides a very strong bond from one block to the next. One way to recycle paper is to build with it.

        INSULATION VALUE - up to R-2.8 per inch, depending on density and ingredients (comparable to fiberglass at R-3.0 per inch). Papercrete walls are typically 10 to 12 inches thick.

From Papercrete Block Construction
LIGHTWEIGHT - most papercrete weighs 15 to 20 lbs. per cubic foot, depending on density and mix. (Concrete weighs137 lbs per cubic foot.) Almost anyone can lift and build with papercrete blocks. Unlike concrete or adobe, papercrete blocks are lightweight, less than a third of the weight of a comparably-sized adobe brick. Papercrete is mold resistant and has utility as a sound-proofing material. After construction is complete and the walls are dry, the exterior needs to be sealed by applying a stucco plaster and then painted to waterproof.
