The footprint of the data, participants cultivate the face of the house in accordance with case studies presented in the competition. The design offered by the last finalist, Agus Indra Didik from Gadjah Mada University is quite interesting.

Balcony on the second floor that can enter and appropriate use, and then sliding door on the first and second floor that is easy to access and out of the owner and the air ventilation is adequate to the added value compared to the other finalists.

Remains a good idea to think about details. Because both of the material details of matter or effective ways of application of ornament in design is important to note. This relates to ease homeowners use what was in his house.

Details are referred to by Sukendro Sukendar related to effective functioning of a device in the house. For example, how to open a sliding door on the second floor balcony to be open. Sukendro better to use some sort of pulley puller tool to open it instead of using a window latch.

Classical Epihifany

A couple bought the deconsecrated church and an adjacent apartment in La Convertoie, a fortress in Italy’s Chianti region that dates to the 11th century, and asked Siena architect Marco Vidotto and Vero Beach, Florida, designer Susan Schuyler Smith to fuse them into a single residence.


The nave—now the living room—was restored to reflect its original design. The 16th-century oil depicts Christ’s presentation at the temple.


Restoration of the church was done under the direction of the institution charged with preserving Italy’s cultural heritage. Smith’s goal was to “create a warm and cozy space with the use of lighting, furnishings and color,” while honoring the structure’s rich history. Vidotto brought the fresco above the altar’s replastered arch back to life.


Converted to a study, the sacristy had been added in the 1800s; Smith chose a wainscot chair and trestle table from that period. Kravet sofa fabric.


The dining room, with its original beams, previously served as a loggia connecting the apartment to the church. Lounge chair fabric, Kravet.


Smith installed the center island and cabinetry in the kitchen. The mid-19th-century fireplace “was kept as the focal point,” says the designer.


In the terrace garden, Chianti-based landscape architect Nancy Leszczynski planted Italian sage, rosemary, a pomegranate tree and assorted other flora.

Digital Wallpaper

Big Impressions


In a downstairs bath, a digital image of a green-and-white botanical evokes spa serenity. Though this Graham and Brown wallpaper mural is discontinued, there's plenty more to choose from on their site.  "It's a fun way to get a great splash for about $120." I love this digital wallpaper, so sad they discontinued the green and white botanical.

High Rise Architecture

The well-guarded little secret of recently built New York apartments at swank addresses is that the interiors are often banal and the construction iffy, the result of developers designing buildings with their calculators. The apartments coast on drop-dead views. Here on the Upper West Side, a hop, skip and a jump from Lincoln Center, the clients wanted to reset the equation so that the interiors matched the views in quality and drama as they achieved a higher environmental IQ. An energy-consuming Manhattan apartment could go green.


New Yorkers called on Hariri & Hariri Architecture to design a Modernist apartment on the 45th floor of a Manhattan tower, the clients asked for environmental intelligence. Collectors and travelers, the couple brought a sophisticated eye to the commission, matched by elevated environmental expectations. They had stayed in many hotels wired to optimize comfort and minimize energy consumption.
