There was a time when the concept of energy saving & natural environment protection was not much familiar. During the construction of home people didn’t appreciate environment friendly strategies due to lack of knowledge & awareness. Environment protection was just a topic in books but practically it has no deployment. So as the technology makes progress we face several problems in our natural environment system. As a matter of fact today almost every third person is damaging the environment in some way. Now the time has arrived to think collectively for the protection of 
environment & saving the energy consumption in our houses.
We can contribute to the environment friendly campaign if we noticed & managed few things in our house accordingly. For example, solar water geezers & some solar cooking solutions are available in the market now. Though it’s a bit expensive in start but if it saves your electricity & bill in your entire life & provide you an affecting solution, & most importantly protects environment & save energy then why not to opt it. One the other hand grow as many trees in your garden as you can, though I am not convincing you with a crazy tip to fill up your swimming pool with soil & grow a tree. It is however good to have more tress in all the corners of the house.
For every modern house, there is a spare room called guest room. This room is not used frequently by the people living in that house. Guest room is dedicated to guests who visit you & wishes to stay at your home for a couple of days. A guest room is designed in such a way that it reflects a beautiful & comfortable effect to the guest. Keep in mind the guest room to design & decorate it as that of any luxury class hotel room. For example
(1) Attached bathroom with fresh towels tidy floor
(2) Comfortable bed
(3) Trendy Sofa with adjustable side table
(4) Balcony
(5) Air conditioning
(6) A beautiful indoor plant at the corner
(7) Table lamps
Additionally you can also add other things of your interest like a piano or a home theater for entertainment purpose. One important thing that I would like to share with you is that you can also consume your guest room for commercial purpose & earn money with it. For example you can get paid guest or can give your living room to another party on rent. In big cities where living is expensive, most of the folks do this to cut cost of living. Infect this is a good idea to generate money with little hassle.
Side desks & corner tables add the charismatic effects to your home, it is therefore considered as the main item in furniture for your guest room or your drawing room; similarly one of my recent observation reveals that most of the interior designers are very common to use these sorts of desks in their projects with a high class hotels & accommodation apartments. Makeup is very important is furniture as well. If you have a good sofa in your drawing room but didn’t have any suitable table at the center, you can’t make a first good impression to your guests. Yes if you make the side table with decent showpiece or a classic wooden ash tray then you are almost done with table make over.
One the other hand the decoration items are also necessary for a good house make over, you need to manage all the required show pieces in a proper way along with your furniture, the photo frames & the paintings are also the integral part so don’t forget it to use in a proper place. One important thing is the use of right thing at right place for example you can hang dog and puppy calendars at your kids room but not it your guest room. Yes German shepherd calendars best fits at your own bedroom if you like your german shepherd dog. I hope you like these tips. But remember if you fail to place the right thing at the right place. You are failing to give your home a charismatic effect.

It is said that first impression is the last impression, Yes! this is very true in most of the cases. If you successfully marked a good first impression then you are almost done with others to feel them good till last moment. So while talking about home makeover the first area to consider is main entrance. I often observe that people invest extensively on the improvement of their drawing room while they neglect do makeover of the most important part of the house ie main entry. Main entry serves as the center of attraction for the whole house. If it is managed in a good manner all the house will be looking good. Main entrance of the house can be classified in to two areas. (1) Main entrance from the outside of the house (2) Main entrance at inside the house that leads to different rooms. Lets discuss them one by one.
Main entrance from outside is also as important as it is from inside. At outdoor main entrance area, important is the door so choose the door according to the design of the house. the color should be in contrast with the paint of the house & the floor. Similarly you can add a couple of money plants at the main entrance area. there should be an attractive latter box at the corner of the main entry. Bells button should also be altrated according to the theme of the house. Similarly on the other hand inside the house main entrance area is very important. The most interesting thing is the lightning at this part of the house. Make sure that there is proper arrangements of lights at this place. You can add a beautiful painting, a wall clock & any indoor plant depends upon the area available with you. the floor needs to look neat and tidy at this area.the paint should be lighter & brighter. Similarly make the entrance open do not include extra decoration pieces & furniture if you have limited space. the main entrance looks good when it is open & wide. take these tips & manage a beautiful main entry for your house.
It makes me feel so breezy when i look outside from the windows of my room as i woke up early in the morning, Yes! window is for sure one of the most important element in every part of the house. if it is managed in a proper way it makes the living more fabolus. there are different techniques came in installing the window at various locations of the house. similarly windows came in different designs at different ages of human life. doctors & medical advisor’s reveal that proper ventilation & well developed scenery is essential for a healthy life. So as a matter of fact it is very important to determine the right placement & right selection of windows while you are building, renovating or designing you house.
These days light weight alluminium framed windows are available easily & have great advantage when it cames to quality & durability. I really recommend it as it covers a wide area easily. A wide window looks more beautiful & makes you feel better. It also gives the room a wider look. Similarly as far as the glass of the window is concern i recommend the clear & transparent one. But if you are looking for some privacy there are tinted as well. I prefer side opening window rather then two pieces open air. At last i say that when you are planning to cover the window with some parda cloth always choose the color according to the contrast & the theme of the room.
