Beautify the home does not have merombaknya totally. However, we can add some attributes, one of them by using the canopy. We recommend that you select unique canopy or in accordance with the interior of the house to make it look more attractive.
According to architect Probo Hindarto, the canopy is a building jutting forward like home, office, and even restaurants. Its main function is to provide protection for the house for windows, doors, ventilation and air from all types of hot weather and rain. As the development of the age, the canopy becomes increasingly diverse materials, such as from roof tiles, shingles materials (wood), vinyl, polycarbonate, fabric, plastic, not concrete, zinc, and fiber cement. The diversity of these materials facilitate the consumers and architects choose as needed.
So, how to determine the best material for the canopy? Probo revealed, from various types of such materials, their advantages and drawbacks lies in the strength and durability of the materials. Strong materials such as iron or metal can certainly last longer than other types of materials.
Meanwhile, the weakness of this sealing material usually must often be replaced periodically, especially when the material is flexible or easily damaged, such as cloth and plastic.
Jeffery, making a canopy garage owner, said there are several advantages of each type of fabric canopy. For example stainless steel, this type is more resistant to corrosion, more elegant, and did not bother to care. However, relatively expensive, which is about to Rp550.000 Rp400.000. Not surprisingly, the required welding professional enough so the results are not disabled. If there is a defect, this material can not be closed by using putty or the like.
It is different when the canopy is made of iron used. It’s cheaper. “Only, for finishing, materials and equipment for iron should be painted with metal paint zinchromate and not too quick to attack the rust,” he added. However, a canopy made from simple iron rusted, so extra care needed. Prior to founding the canopy, home owners should consider several aspects, among other needs. Canopy are usually designed for home owners needed something that could protect the house from weather changes, such as the direction of the direct sunlight that can damage the supporting elements such as doors and windows of the house.
Probo suggest, if you want to apply the canopy on the window or door will match the canopy with window size. That is, the size of the canopy is wider than a window or door. Widening the window of the canopy will be more protected. “But it must also be accompanied by many of the plants around the house to help cool the air inside the house,” suggested Probo.
Probo also advised to choose design images building canopies in accordance with the model home. For example, a model of modern houses are usually canopied with simple types such as no concrete without much decoration. Meanwhile, the model of classical style / Mediterranean usually have lis memperindahnya profile.
“In the section could use a polycarbonate roof, there are also many different types of dependent needs of consumers. There are also plastic fiber. “Typically the consumer who chooses a plastic material because its price is relatively cheap,” said Jeffery, owner of the canopy making services. While for the gutter water, if using an iron material, usually equipped with PVC guttering and stainless welded directly to the framework of the canopy.
For color selection, color is usually adjusted for house building. Therefore, the application of the protective canopy as well as home decorative.
“According to the aesthetics, building canopies usually become complementary elements that adorn the building,” said the governess www. This astudioarchitect.com. So even when the occupants to apply a light in the canopy. Lights can be placed at the bottom facing the window or door.
“The white light which tends to yellow because the light effects could give the impression of ‘warm’ and convenient to the area below the canopy,” added Probo.
