CARS owned by residents of Jakarta more and more increasing. The problems that arise from increased car in the capital also began to appear. The problem that is directly seen and felt immediately that is, congestion and difficulty parking location.

Two problems are often encountered in various parts of Jakarta residents are scattered. Congestion is clearly felt by almost every second by the citizens of Jakarta. However, several solutions to the congestion had been offered. Solutions offered to solve traffic congestion, among others, the implementation of point 3 in 1, policing for two-wheel motorcycle riders, through the operation of mass transportation, the busway aliases are allowed to pass.

Now, another problem caused by the swelling number of vehicles in Jakarta is a parking lot. Increasing car usage was not accompanied with additional parking facilities. Parking for cars really need a very wide area. Unlike the motorcycle parking, more cars more space-consuming.

The solution to the limited parking areas is one of them by way of construction of parking lots at the storey building. Parking areas located in high-rises like a new trend in the buildings of Jakarta. Parking areas in high rise building is clearly visible in parts of office buildings to shopping centers.

Parking spaces in high rise building also felt still less to accommodate the number of cars in Jakarta. Moreover, during certain hours, the number of vehicles parked at office buildings and shopping centers began to appear oppressive. At peak hours of work, parking areas in the building must have jumped. If the shopping center, parking lots will be full when a holiday or weekend arrival.

However, parking in high-rises should get special attention. Facilities and airworthiness of structural and architectural styles of buildings, greatly affect the security and safety of the owner of the vehicle. Not to mention, the height of the parking area which was considered more risky. When security and safety factors are ignored, then the location of the parking area will be fruitful disastrous.

Users of vehicles parked on the rise buildings, should be more vigilant when compared to vehicle users who park at the bottom or ground. The accident at the location of parking buildings in Jakarta, carrying three times already occurred.

On Thursday, May 17, 2007, at 13:00 pm, a black Honda Jazz car jump from 6th floor of Building Parking ITC Permata Hijau, Kebayoran Lama, South Jakarta. Honda Jazz police numbered B 1792 EV visible in the crushed and overturned conditions on the ground.

Three of the passengers who is also one family, father, mother and child, died on the spot in the Honda Jazz. Those who killed the couple Afandi Rush aka Hurricane (32), Trisna Priyatna (29), and their son, Samuel (12). Families who live in this terrible fate Kemandoran RT 08/11 North Gandaria Kebayoran, South Jakarta.

Thursday, December 6, 2007, a car almost fell from the 5th floor of the parking area at the same location, Mal ITC Permata Hijau, South Jakarta. Indeed there are no casualties on the second similar incident in this same location. However, the ruins of the wall it hit a car park the other car was under. Nissan X-Trail bernopol B 263 KW suffered a dent into the windshield on the left side. The left side of the front bumper also looks damaged car. Not to mention, the remnants of debris and rubble still in dii roof of the car that Nissan X-Trail.

Another similar incident in a neighboring town, Bogor, West Java. Sunday, January 14, 2007, at 21:15 pm. One box car picture Isuzu Panther Bookstore Gunung Agung, also a free fall from parkirarn Pangrango Mall Bogor.

Box car B 9991 FA bernopol was parked on the third floor and rode two riders. Two riders were namely, Imam Maulana (22) and Asep Mulyana (21). Fortunately, two passenger cars fateful not only killed and injured. Box car fell from a height of 20 meters to Malabar Road. The position of the car fell, with the position of the front of the car down and the rear upright.

Today, Tuesday (22/1/2008), skydiving car tragedy happening again. A Honda Accord 8722 FW bernopol B falling from 8th floor Menara Jamsostek, Jalan Gatot Subroto, South Jakarta, at approximately 10:30 pm. Heriawan, fateful car driver who also Citizens Pesanggrahan, South Jakarta died instantly at the scene.

South Jakarta police chief Pol Kombes Chairul Anwar expressly stated, the physical conditions in the Tower parking areah Jamsostek is not suitable for use. Jamsostek Tower parking in the building was not known to be walled. Limiting parking area off the air, only limited iron plate fence nearly 1 meter tall.

Apart from the human error factor, the strongest causes other than accident-storey building is a parking area which is less suitable facilities. This means, it is very difficult in this country, especially in Jakarta to make a parking area which makes the driver a comfortable and quiet. If so, then the system supporting parking facilities very good, efficient, and safe in the capital is very difficult to construct.

Now, people are just waiting for the Child Welfare steps to take firm and stern against the building management is stubborn and corrupt when establishing such facilities. When the provincial not also build proper parking areas, and not be firm to the managers of the building, then what happens is a matter of time occurrence of similar accidents. When the provincial unable to build a secure car park, is now living residents use the facilities “Car Parking Disaster”

AREA parks could pledged center in days special. Particularly if size considerable. Festivity garden going more festive and intimate.

rea parks divided within several sections. Backyard or park rear, parks aside and courtyard. Several garden design adjusted community needs modern. Therefore, unsurprised if garden design progressively expand lately. Assumed garden design Modern dressy like Europe or designs parks traditional style contemporary inspired Japanese cultural and China.

Lately more society urban who tried designing parks as place for relaxing while enjoying dish with family. Taman footprint within occupancy commonly called courtyard actually fixed can have double function. Apart maintain air circulation within occupancy, this area also can used as means relaxes.

Courtyard usually has sizes 3 x 3 meters square. Even if not has area sufficient, size 2 x 2.5 meters sq. could still used as areas for build courtyard. Certainly concepts and designs must remain fused with broad themes buildings.

“Most necessary is how make courtyard more functionally, but remain fused with broad themes house,” revealed Nirwono Yoga, interior design and expert landscapes from Joga Sandjaya Rahman Consultant.

Interestingly, currently courtyard increasingly favored. Besides because has function related health with air circulation, courtyard also represents functional areas capable supersedes function family room nor refectory.

Besides courtyard, parks rear nor beside broad enough also could become location gathered family. Need remembered, parks has two elements. Assumed element soft form plants until with furniture like tables and chair become part important on areas used as place mingle this.

To remain functional, Backyard usually also equipped with umbrella or roof resistant to weathering. “Good design indeed must remain noticed element themes, symmetry, contrast, and combinations antarelemen within a occupancy,” said Aris Purwanto, architects from Lingga Jaya Counsultant.

Instance, for special design courtyard on rooftop apartments. Design Unique could reflected from game colors on line visuals deliberately wanted displayed. Gaming element rocks and plants placed within potted makes atmosphere and auras parks become more comfortable.

To remain gives impression shady but not boring, combinations green leaves with element gradations make parks feels more alive. Hijau young-dark green, young green-yellow ivory, or even young green-purple is several colors leaf could applicated in a courtyard.

To election plants, location courtyard usually less accordance for usage pansy. Section, area this park not obtain sunlight sufficient. Insufficiency sunlight feared will make plants having flower precisely will faster die or rot.

Anyway plants flowering require sunlight far greater order could remain grow well. Pansy should used as decorator decorative only. Eg for beautify order desk eating.

Tricks designing parks is to integrete element appropriate. This increases aesthetics park. “Combination plants with rocklike nature capable gives impression more interesting within a park,” said Aris.

home does not have hard as iron, concrete, stone, or a massive and rigid aluminum. Soft materials such as plants can be utilized as a protector of the house.

According to Yoga Nirwono landscape architect, as the face of the house, the fence must appear attractive because it will reflect the overall appearance of occupancy. “If the fence is not attractive, the display house became less attractive,” said Nirwono.

Leading elements in this shelter is very important, both functional and aesthetic. The presence of hedgerows in particular, besides giving a different look with shades of green, can also bring home the atmosphere facade. Hedgerows also have ecological functions.

Therefore, before applying plants as a fence, there are two important things to consider. First, the plant is not a massive fence. Semipermanent nature hedgerows. To make a fence, plants can be combined with an iron fence, wood, or walls. Second, consider the function of the fence you want to display, whether to emphasize the aesthetic function, just as a safety, or ecological (to reduce noise and absorb pollution). This function will affect you in choosing types of plants and maintenance. Therefore, plants are living things that continue to grow and develop, so it takes extra care if you want to remain natural and attractive appearance. Still, do not worry as to make the plant as the fence is not difficult and expensive; live how you.

“Do not choose plants that need pruning because plants are high maintenance,” said Nirwono.

If one choose the type of plant, you must be willing to accept the consequences. You must be willing to perform maintenance on the fence plus your green routine manner cut it once every two weeks, in order to get the fence fixed view on the previous model, ie with the same high neat and not cluttered.

To facilitate the treatment of live fences, select the type of plants that do not need to be cut, such as croton plant species which have different variants of the flowers and leaves, green plants such as shrubs, and beautiful flowering plants like hibiscus.

These live fences have many advantages, especially to those that include plant lovers, as they may choose their own and the creation of plant species of high-low, and the shape of plants to be used as a fence. Nevertheless, we encourage you to determine the first appearance of the fencing.

Nirwono suggest better form a fence and plant species are aligned with the park concept and the architecture of your home, so as to create harmony in the overall occupancy. For example for a tropical home, you can choose a beautiful flowering plants like hibiscus and yellow-leaved plants such as croton. Meanwhile, for the modern home, you can choose a simple plants, like bamboo species.

Of high and low, the optimal fence 1.5 meters high, while the length is adjusted with the width of the page. “For instance, the page width of 10 meters, then the fence is 5-7 meters wide with a thickness of between 30-50 cm plants. However, thicker plants will increasingly reduce the noise,” he said.

In addition, the high-low hedge indicate the nature of the occupants. Low hedges to give the impression that the occupant is a person who is open, like socializing, and friendly. Meanwhile, high fence that indicates the owner is a person who does not like to be disturbed closed and private life.

In addition, high fence that also marks the owners pay attention to security at their house. Despite government regulations, particularly Jakarta, which states that the height of the fence may not cover the house, ie for a maximum of 1.5 meters of housing environment, but for a house located on the edge of the highway or the marketplace, that rule does not apply for security reasons.

HOME entertainment not simply entertain, designs also could harmony with order interior. How arranging?

Unable denied if everyone likes entertainment audio and video. Wherever and whenever, requirement this demanded to exists. Especially at home who pledged place resting and spent.

Own entertainment home so appropriate solution. Particularly if you got funds more for purchase one complete sets home entertainment. To more specific, this time we will discuss how menata interior design to align to home entertainment you purchase.

“Putting home entertainment it not easy, misplaced, sound generated so not maximal,” says expert TI Ridho Sri Wisnu.

That why before aligning interior design in space home theater, preferably beforehand designing layout these devices.

Usually home theater consist above 6 units expenditures votes. Two speakers for mid range as media vowel, two speaker as surround system, one center speaker and one sub-woofers as media undertone. Order Such ordinary known with 5.1. Step first, according Wisnu, is laying position television most ideal.

Architect Ir Nugroho Widhi IAI HDII advised, should position television must parallel visibility eyes when sitting. “Consider, whether using sofa bed or chairs, importantly between eye spectators which later sat in sofa bed with altitude television must parallel,” says male who also owns special room home theater at home this.

After position altitude seating with television or projector obtained, step second is regulate visibility. “Do forgot, visibility depending magnitude television weared. The greater television, hence must increasingly far distance view,” says Wisnu.

According Widhi, this called with scale glances. He instruct order not laid goods compositions heavy Around area view television. Aim so that focus when watching undisturbed.

“Even if willing beautify Non with adds garnish better in areas backs spectators,” mention.

That’s if You still remain want gives garnish Around area view television, preferably select goods or furniture gentle and uninteresting attention eye.

“Try only one viewpoint in room, specially in area glances. So increasingly near with device, must increasingly simpel, do too crowded in front eyes,” specifically
