PostHeaderIcon Reflection Architecture Houses Grandma To House Today

Good memories vacation home grandmother, was not only belong to the children only. I, is as old as this one …., (But always feel young), still miss a vacation to grandma’s house, although now my grandmother had died and the house was sold. Instead of comparing my house grandma’s house and now, apparently there are some that might be can be a lesson. My grandmother’s house, situated in the city of Surabaya, a city that since I was little until now was hot (it was there). Although not located along the elite, but we were happy when on vacation to grandma’s house. Simple old house was filled with messages of architecture. Many lessons to be learned in the design of the old house. In accordance with the slogan and call to save energy and make this earth becomes green, it would not hurt us to reflect back to the house design.

Home As a Function of Social and Transitional Space
Just like a house of its time, this house has a wide porch and fenced walls roughly half as high as 60 cm, as a barrier. The top of this barrier, made rather wide, for a seat for us. This wall material is covered by a simple but durable enough, which is tile. Usually on the porch this afternoon grandma and grandpa sitting disepasang chairs and a table containing afternoon snack and a cup of hot tea. They enjoy the evening as she greeted neighbors who passed in front of their home. If we were different again, at that porch to wait for the function of our favorite snacks through, knowing kupang meatballs and rice cake. Apparently the front porch function other than as a transitional space between the outer space can also have a social function. Hot afternoon sun will go into the house, when the window is open, but it will not happen if a lot of trees around the house. This happens at grandma’s front yard. A guava tree is quite large, standing in front of the porch. When the flower season comes, the green expanse of grass howl almost closed with pink hair flower. It looks very beautiful, with pink color, I used to call it pink. On the right and left terbut tree soursop tree stand and an avid sugar apple tree bear fruit. Although not seteduh guava tree but the tree is enough to make green porch during the day, (although we rarely enjoy the veranda in the afternoon).

In stark contrast to the house I live now, a small porch in front of the house, although I still have a fairly wide veranda behind the house, but its social value is reduced. Front porch only to the transition space before entering the house. Because of limited land, on the front porch even if not planted a big crop, but low enough to green with a broad-leaf plants and several broadleaf plants that I put in the pot and a few more I’m hanging. But okay, there is shade and O2 production that we could enjoy during the day. Some parts of the backyard, left overgrown with grass so that rain water can still get into the ground. Only one tree big enough to give kesejukkan at home, rambutan tree. Another benefit, can enjoy the rambutan season and also provide shade on the veranda behind the house.

Fire Evacuation Line
The old house has a fire escape route is located on the right and left home, which is approximately 2 meters wide, the roof of the house was separate from one house to another house. This path is a prerequisite in establishing a house, of course in addition to evacuation, it turns out that route can be a space to bring sunlight into the house. Automatic, every room has at least one side associated with outer space. Natural lighting during the day can be 100% into the house and the room does not require artificial lighting during the day.

Double Window
Large glass window that can be left wide open during the day. Fresh air is so abundant entrance into the room, let alone given a jalousie thereon which is always open 24 hours. Jalousie enough holes to drain the air and available over the doors and windows. Speaking of windows, unique in each room will have at least double the window size measuring approximately 1.6 meters by 1.6 meters height minimum. This means that each window has four shutters, which is two shutters blinds and two glass shutters. Multiple windows can be used as alternative energy-efficient solutions. The window blinds to enter fresh air while the glass window to enter the sunlight. When at night the glass window can be opened but window blinds closed, so that fresh air can still get into the room. For business mosquito, mosquito net use solution can be a good alternative. At least be more healthy, than the use of mosquito repellent.

Window design can be used as an example, in order to optimize the sunlight into the room and still dispel the heat. Besides the window should be open, also use a pet that is wide enough for the sun’s heat does not enter into the house but light can. Model minimalist home now, commonly presenting tritisan or pet became minimal (is). Design pet or tritisan such as “timid”, with long narrow pet so that rain water and hot sun are still freely about shutters even get into the room. The length and height of the window pet related, the higher the longer the window is needed that is designed pet. Many benefits can be gleaned from the presence of the right window, other than air can enter into the room, with windows open to minimize the use of the fan / air conditioning and lights in the daytime. This means energy savings.

Energy Efficient Space
Family room in this old house, is not specific enough. Just like any other house, living in this house, where family members chatting while watching television. But at least have the “breath” togetherness that earthy. Not winning the designer ego but based on the interests of its inhabitants. A model that could be taken on the design of the present, the presence of the family room a safe and comfortable for all family members with the concept of openness to save energy. As the name implies means that the family room space that can accommodate a whole family activity. In addition to chatting fellow members of the family, the family room is also the place doing different activities simultaneously, such as learning. Regulations must be complied with to use the family room can be enforced. Just one TV in the living room that will be used simultaneously and interchangeably.

The presence of shared learning space in the family room, in addition to tolerance also learn self-discipline. The concept of togetherness is applied by presenting just one computer at a study room one big enough. The bedroom is only used to sleep alone, so the savings in electricity usage for air conditioning and lighting. The use of bright paint colors to help the lighting in the room. Each room has the same requirement that is comfortable and healthy. Selection of furniture that fit the function and size make the room feel cozy. One space that evokes my memory is the kitchen. Not the kitchen a sophisticated and luxurious, but the kitchen at the back and somewhat separate from the house, meaning that free air can be related directly to the kitchen. Kitchen with “divan” is quite broad and latticed space that connects the kitchen and the pool beside the house. By day, the kitchen does not use artificial lighting, original … use natural lighting. Although simple, the walls of the board, the dining room was directly associated with the pool that berpulau lemon tree. Fresh air can freely enter through the wooden lattice. While living in the present, but a model that can be taken from the grandmother’s house designs can be applied.
