Building Your Home At Green City



The fact of global warming affecting climate change and environmental degradation of the quality of human life have been aware of the importance of saving human life on Earth. Various parties continue to work together to build a new world that is more environmentally friendly and sustainable.

Property developers share information to build green properties to the town green. Properties of green products introduced to consumers who are increasingly critical of developers who are not environmentally friendly. There are many properties of the concept of green garden city, green city, city of trees, home gardens, botanical gardens, green parks, to the green valley that flooded the market has fascinated people.

Architecture trends that had a popular, ranging from tropical-style house, country, Mediterranean, to minimalist, consumers began to be abandoned. The architects and homeowners began to work together to develop the concept of eco-friendly residential house and searched the occupants.

Eco-friendly house (green house) requires several things to consider. Houses must be built on land that is earmarked for residential areas, not the green area (watershed). The composition of space and space do not wake up wake adjusted to the rules prevailing in each region. For residential areas, the basic building coefficient (KDB) ideally a maximum of 70 percent thus providing a green base coefficient (KDH) reached 30 percent.

Since the planning and construction of houses, building materials used should use local materials or easily obtained from a nearby area. Ease bring local materials will save transportation costs and also help reduce vehicle carbon emissions.

Local materials will further align the character of the building with the surrounding environment, such as exposure building stone, brick, and wood to blend the natural impression, or cement, steel and glass featuring a modern face. Interior and furniture in the house can use materials that are easily recyclable or recycled goods.

Building sketch is quite easy to follow, flowing air circulation and natural light with privacy. The placement of doors, windows, voids, and the right vent. The spaces in the house (living room, family room, bedroom, dining room, kitchen) was quite bright, but not too hot or humid. The fresh air blew around the room, enough with the fan, use air conditioning only at certain times.

Saving electricity

Electricity crisis and the more expensive byarpet encourage all parties to begin to get used to use an environmentally friendly alternative energy. Although not much developed, residents continue to look for power (if possible) easy and cheap. Choice fell on the installation of solar cell panels on the roof of the building to heat the water and some light point.

In coastal areas, made the development of windmills to supply electricity. Biogas also been ogled to light lamps or cooking. Alternative development electric energy environment friendly homes should continue to be done so that the house does not depend much on the supply of electricity in the future.

Availability KDH 30 percent more houses and provide opportunities for residents can breathe easier. Green space was developed into a park with the concept of park needs of residents, such as therapeutic garden / reflection / relaxation, water gardens, flower gardens, or according to the architecture of tropical gardens, minimalist garden, Japanese garden and Mediterranean garden.

This beautiful park is an ecological contribution to the city as private green open space part of the green open spaces of the city. Residents are entitled to incentives such as tax reductions, cutting the cost of electricity, telephone, and other facilities, from the government as the government's appreciation for the participation of citizens in terms of adding a green city.

The architects began diligently to build a green roof (green roof, roof garden) as an effort to replace the land (green) that is built up. In the big cities are crowded and stuffy, the presence of green roofs cool tub oasis in the middle of concrete jungle city. Not enough, the walls of the house is also wrapped into a wall of green vines (green wall).

The building is covered with plants shown to affect the micro climate of the surrounding environment. The heat down. Parks became a natural roof insulation. Solar radiation absorbed by plants. Pollutant gas plants processed into oxygen. Rainwater can be accommodated, absorbed, and flowed into the pipe and sink into the wells of water absorption.

Waste

Rooms in the house became more cool and comfortable (air conditioning usage can be reduced). Residents can relax, see the blue sky by day, sparkling star gazing at night, or a garden party on the city landscape while enjoying the view from the roof of the house. A very rare experience for the citizens of the city.

Environmentally friendly homes absorb the water that fell as much as possible into the ground (zero run-off). Houses built drainage system clean, dirty water, and waste water is made separately. Clean water from the pump or PAM directly channeled into the water tank. Bath had been taking a shower. Water tanks began to be eliminated because many considered to be more extravagant bathroom with a bucket of water.

The water bath used to wash vegetables or recycled into the water for toilet flushing, watering plants, or washing vehicles. Excess water or washing clothes and utensils collected, filtered (neutralized), and naturally absorbed into the well equipped water catchment natural filters (sand, gravel, fibers, pieces of brick / tile). Dirty water that flows into the septic tank is processed separately.

Waste treatment is also done by separating the organic and inorganic waste from the source (zero waste). The remaining vegetables, fruits, and foods processed into organic waste to memupuki plants in home gardens. Second-hand goods is selected and sorted into finished goods ready for another new function or set aside to be given to scavengers. All residents invited to get involved in waste management.

Do not forget, if a house near the location of public transport (bus or train), residents are invited to get used to walking or cycling to get to the place of daily activities, particularly those within easy walking distance. Healthier, more environmentally friendly. Pedestrian paths are wide, comfortable, and quiet in neighborhoods and cities are also increasingly encourage people to walk away. Provision of bike paths is also one form of a green city.
