Living in a beautiful house is a dream many of us cherish for long. However, only a few among us take steps in the right direction and realize the goal of beautifying the home. Those who do look for latest interior design trends so that the spaces can start looking charming and inspired corners are transformed completely. Such home owners want neighbors and relatives to take note of the interior designing work and thus, search for ideas in magazines, on the web and on TV etc. They also make sure the interior design trends fit well into the trends of the modern times and meet societal ethos.

Let’s look at some of features of latest interior design trends –

Latest trend don’t fade out soon

Latest trends in interior designing won’t change soon as they’re quite unlike those in the fashion and tech industries. Rather, they stay in there and gradually get to people and grow on people across societies. They will be in vogue for years and you can find houses accepting them and assimilating their virtues in a slow manner.

They blend traditional and modern ideas together

Latest interior design trends are not any unique discovery or concept; rather, they are a coming together of the merits of the traditional and modern ideas. For example, the use of wooden materials is growing across modern structures and it’s like going back to the classical touch. And home owners now prefer small yet cozy spaces which was norm during the 60s and 70s.

Greater use of natural materials and colors

It’s true that home owners today do a greater use of natural materials and colors in beautifying the interiors of their house. In fact, hand-crafted items are also a fad these days among people aspiring for beautiful home interiors. Similarly, the use of modern geometry and colorful texture is on the up in interior designing. Not to forger, the use of glass or other see-through objectives is rising up steadily for transforming the interiors.

A touch of nature in design

Calm and cosy atmosphere is the latest desire for home owners when they design the interiors of the house. They want the spaces to get a cleaner and greener look at the cost of flashy ornamentation and gaudy enhancements. Using greener and natural materials or options to bring in a touch of nature is surely the latest trend with interior designing. This is why wood and green carpets are used more these days in interiors.

Hand-crafted items more in demand

Let’s admit it straightway – people want classy look and feel. They can vintage furniture and accessories, preferably hand-crafted ones to grace the interiors. The focus is to lend the interior a dash of artistic craftsmanship through the use of items hand-crafted with perfection. So, you can feel the difference with the way customized furniture are used these days.

More natural light, less dark shades

As per latest interior design trends, the focus is shifted to more natural lights and less dark shades. So, only those objects and materials are used that bring in more light and take out dark shades. Similarly, home owners today prefer bold patterns, objects with smooth edges, accessories with soft edges and bright primary colors.

The lives of today’s generation have become mobile-friendly. The designing trends related to the web and its services are adopted by most of the people to make their business successful and developed. People have started following these trends so that they can get the high-quality websites that make sense for your business.

Today’s technologies like machine learning, virtual reality or voice user interfaces have become the mainstream medium for most of the people using and working on websites. There are various trends that need to be followed for each and every website owner, some of them are mentioned below:

• Expressive typography – The web designers prefer releasing their creativity in typography. When a designer inserts more good images, the website started slowing down. So, it is important to use typography instead of high-resolution pictures to make website effective and attractive. It results in better search rankings and user experience.

• Internet of things – For the connection of various technological devices to the internet, IoT is the best thing to apply for. The interfaces of IoT allow the user to interact with smart devices. It includes complex backend, but when the professional follow this trend, it can become easy to use interface.

• Virtual Reality Video – With the increasing age of technology, the trend of videos for Professional Web Design are also increasing. This will allow seeing faces of different products and services used by the user every day. Also, there is a great increase in the number of applications that are using videos for their promotion and business purpose. This trend has reached to the immersive place in the world of business.

• Machine learning – Bots plays an important role in the improvement of artificial intelligence and machine learning. It makes use of location data and analyzes ads, events and information of the user. It also helps in identifying what exactly customer is looking for. This is known as customer service that is continuously becoming efficient and faster with time.

• Flat design – In a website, flat design plays an important and vital role in increasing its attractiveness. For getting better mobile performances, developers and Web Designing Companies prefer creating simple and clean websites. As the website with heavy images results in creating load and frustration to the user or the website itself. Flat design refers to usability and minimalism, where a user could only get focused and important content or information on your website.

The MEP design and installation workflow involves a number of stakeholders and parties that are collectively responsible for overseeing a series of stages that will result in the building engineering (or building services) to be planned, designed, spatially coordinated, fabricated, installed, commissioned and maintained. Typically, the building services design stage follows the initial architectural design, from which point it can usually be designed in parallel with further architectural as well as structural design changes.

The engineering teams that typically design building services solutions are usually in one of two groups. The first group is typically the building designer, also known as the consultant engineer or the design engineer. It is the role of the design engineer to work closely with the architect to develop the overall building engineering elements including lighting, cooling, heating, drainage, waste, fire prevention and protection services. Traditionally, the design engineer will not be involved in the detailed spatial design of these services. Instead the detailed spatial design and installation would normally be handled by the second party, known as the MEP contractor (M&E contractor) or trade contractor. The MEP or trade contractor is responsible for evolving the initial consultant design into a workable and installation-ready building services solution.

In some instances, there is also a third party involved – the fabricator, who will be responsible for creating MEP components such as ductwork or pipework elements or in some cases pre-fabricated solutions that consist of pipework, electrical ladder, plumbing, ductwork and sprinkler within a frame (module) that is delivered to site for installation in risers, plant rooms and corridors.

This article is concerned with the role of the MEP designer and MEP contractor, specifically, the focus for this article is to discuss how BIM (Building Information Modelling) has influenced the MEP design workflow between the designer and the contractor.

Current MEP BIM Workflow Options

Essentially there are five different MEP design workflow scenarios that currently exist and these will be discussed in the article. They are as follows

1. Traditional 2D design and 3D BIM coordination
2. 3D MEP design and 3D BIM coordination
3. Designers 3D BIM design and coordination
4. Contractor 3D BIM design and coordination
5. General contractor 3D model coordination

Traditional 2D Design and 3D BIM Coordination

Considering the traditional MEP approach first, this is where a consultant will create 2D design outputs, which include 2D plan layouts, 2D sections and MEP (M&E) schematics. This will indicate the design intent for the building based on the use specified by the architect. Once the consultant has completed this design information he will pass on the information to an MEP contractor who will be responsible for creating the MEP coordinated solution. This article assumes that the contractor will create a spatially coordinated 3D BIM model using BIM tools such as Revit MEP and Navisworks. The contractor will use the design information and create an installation-ready solution which takes into account installation, efficiency of pipe runs or duct bends, space for lagging and hanging the services, access for post install maintenance and so on. This traditional MEP approach, from a 2D design to a 3D model has existed for the past couple of decades and allows the contractor to add additional information into the model that can be used by him and by facilities management companies after the installation. The use of the 3D tool such as Revit is of course useful as it is an intelligent model, with parametric components and therefore, as well as allowing the contractor to identify and resolve clashes before any time is spent on site, it has other uses and applications where model ‘information’ is used and relied upon.

3D MEP Design and 3D BIM Coordination

The second workflow method is more directly influenced by BIM. As the MEP designer, one will use BIM tools to create a 3D model and associated drawings during his initial design phase (rather than a 2D design) before this information is handed across to an MEP trade contractor. The MEP design engineer will typically create a 3D model due to customer specifications and requirements for a BIM model, as in many cases a federated model (which combines the other disciplines in a single model) is needed by the client for a weekly review and hence the MEP consultant cannot simply provide a set of 2D drawings. In this workflow, the BIM model is effectively a 3D representation of what would otherwise be a 2D deliverable. It will therefore consist of areas where further changes are still needed by a trade contractor. Such examples include the use of library items rather than specific MEP trade contractor procured elements that may be used in the model. The creation of a 3D BIM model at this stage by the consultant is also subject to multiple architectural and structural model changes. These have a knock-on effect on the MEP solution as it is effectively a work-in-progress model for MEP with constant architectural and structural changes and therefore will never have the same level of efficiency, in terms of layout of services, compared to an MEP model where the architectural and structural models are frozen. The downside of this workflow method is of course the extra time taken to create a BIM model by the consultant team. Added to this issue is the fact that 3D modelling expertise and skills within a consulting engineering team can sometimes be limited. Once the consultant completes his model and passes it to the MEP contractor, the decision as to whether the contractor should adapt the model or start the modelling process from the start is really based on the quality of the model to start with. In reality both scenarios will exist, in some cases the MEP trade contractor is better off starting the BIM model again using only the 2D design drawings that are created by the consultant from his BIM model, while in some rare cases the trade contractor will use the consultants MEP BIM model and adapt and modify it with his changes, to make the model ready for installation. In both scenarios, the MEP contractor will always look to make value engineering additions and changes to the model as well as procurement led model changes.

Designers 3D BIM MEP Design and Coordination

The third MEP design workflow method is a more pure and direct consequence of BIM and it actually also starts to promote the benefit of BIM more significantly as it gets closer to ‘virtual design and construction’ aims of the industry. In this workflow the approach of design engineer is to create a BIM model that is spatially coordinated and that is using the actual specified components for the project. Typically, the consultant during this phase will have a longer period of time to create the model, allowing him to absorb the changes from structural and architectural disciplines as they progress through the detailing stages. The fact that the model is then coordinated with the structure and architecture as well as other MEP services allows the consultant to create a model that is being created according to an installation standard that is now more usable by an installer or fabricator. When the model in this workflow method is passed on to a contractor, the contractor may still wish to make final changes and adjustments in a round of value engineering. Typically, the contractor will use the same model in this workflow and make changes to the model provided by the MEP design consultant. Additionally, it is probable that the consultant engineer will not have provided invert (height) levels or dimensions from gridlines and walls for the MEP services on his drawings. In such cases the contractor will therefore have to create more detail in the drawings, but again contractor could use the consultant’s drawings and progress them in more detail for his/her use.

Contractor 3D Design and Coordination

The fourth workflow method involves MEP contractors (or trade contractors) taking on the design responsibility as well as the coordination responsibility. Whilst the coordination responsibility is an established skillset with experience of developing detailed and comprehensive vertical and horizontal strategies for coordination being part of the contractor’s core skills, the design responsibility is a new element for the contractor. This was traditionally known as a design and build approach; however, it is now becoming increasingly common especially in cases where companies are seeking to have rapid design and detailed coordination completed. Typically, the components to be used will be specified by the end client, allowing the contractor to design and model before creating his detailed coordinated drawings from the model, to allow installation and fabrication if needed. The reason that this particular workflow method is not the most popular at present is simply due to the volume of work in the market and also the design responsibility that also has to be assumed as in most cases, contractors may not wish to accept this risk or indeed they may not have the resources to complete the design work. For this workflow method to exist at all means that the contractor has to employ design staff directly and provide design liability insurance to allow him to design the MEP solution as well as install it. The benefit of this workflow option is obviously the time efficiency that is realized and therefore the cost benefit, as the cost of utilising contractor resource will usually be lower compared to expensive design engineering firms. However, it does come with some risk as the design expertise that design engineers possess cannot be easily replicated by contractors, even if they do employ in-house teams.

General Contractor 3D Model Coordination

The fifth variant of MEP design workflow is based on creating coordinated MEP models similar to the traditional 2D to 3D approach but for a different customer group. In this workflow method a 2D architectural, structural and MEP design that is to be used by a main contractor (or general contractor) is then progressed into a 3D BIM model by the contractor to assess the validity and completeness of the model. In some cases, some of the design elements from the different disciplines may be presented in 3D while others may be in 2D. It is also possible that different disciplines may provide models in different software that may or may not present software interoperability challenges. In such instances, a team will typically be employed to use the design data from architectural, structural and MEP designers to then create a 3D BIM model based on actual data. The aim is to identify any inconsistencies in the design data by identifying any clashes in the model, allowing the contractor in such a workflow method to effectively mitigate his/her potential risk. Any problems found within the model are usually passed back to the designers to make amendments to their 2D design for subsequent changes to the 3D BIM model which is ultimately owned by the main contractor. This BIM workflow solution is becoming less common now because MEP contractors and designers are creating BIM models themselves.

In summary, BIM has introduced a number of new workflow variants to the MEP design services sector. The previously tried and trusted method of a 2D design, from a designer, that was developed into a 3D coordinated MEP model by contractor is no longer the workflow solution used as firms now have many other variants and alternatives available. Along with BIM Modeling, other developments in the construction sector, including collaborative online working and work sharing have also contributed to the uptake levels for BIM and impacted the changes to workflow.

In terms of the MEP design workflow options, the most popular of these as we move forward will be the third option, which is the consultant creating a BIM model that is spatially coordinated, or the fourth option which is the contractor taking on the design responsibility as well as creating the coordinated BIM model. Both options are effectively a change to the traditional approach for MEP design and both point to a single source for the model and drawings as opposed to the historical two-tier design approach. All options discussed will require competent BIM coordination and MEP modelling teams and resources. XS CAD, with its large MEP coordination team and MEP engineering design team, which consists of mechanical and electrical engineering professionals, is well placed to deal with such projects for companies based in the USA, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. As all are regions where BIM is now the preferred solution, XS CAD, with more than 16 years’ experience and a presence in each market is an ideal option for such companies.

I believe in judging a website by how well it converts visits into profits and this can be achieved with “stickiness”… the measure of how long a user spends on your site.

The longer they stay the likelier they are to spend money, ask any good salesperson worth his weight in salt!

Website Design, “stickiness” & the 8 “C’s”

Your design should keep visitors on your site AND make them come back for more so implement a few of the “C’s” in your site design to improve your conversion rate:

1.Content

“Content is king” so ensure your web copy is unique, fresh, useful to users and fits in with the overall design.

Broadcast content with RSS Feeds, e-mails and sms to your target audience and link to relevant sites to get your point across (automate this in the website design).

Interactive website design (on-line games, weather reports, etc.) ensures consumers spend more time on your website.

Include F.A.Q.S, reports, research data or on-line response forms and integrate call to actions throughout the website.

2. Community

Engage people on your website, plug-ins from Social networks should be incorporated in your website design to further develop peoples perception of your brand.

3.Communication

It’s important for prospects or customers to reach you, display your contact details on each page and use an email notifier to inform users of any updates to the website.

Your design should include a Blog and allow comments giving you a better insight of your visitors needs.

4.Customisation

Allow visitors to personalise landing pages and ensure the website design is customer centric with personal greetings and personal preferences.

5. Commerce

Customers should be able to complete the entire purchasing process on-line so incorporating on-line registration, secure payment facilities, order tracking and return policies in the website design is essential.

6. Convenience

Ensure your Hosting Company is reliable and keep your website down time to a minimum, remove dead links and ensure that information in no more than 3 clicks away (plan during the initial website design phase).

The website design should ensure a pleasant user experience with simple navigation, good graphics and clear typography.

7. Choice

The website should offer a wider selection of products than normal distribution channels or perhaps offer a product customisation option for registered members.

8. Cost

We always looking for bargains and the easiest way to find them is on-line, offer discounts for on-line purchases or bookings (check out kulula.com for a good example).

Plenty of thought has to go into website design so always plan before you launch your on-line presence (or overhaul your existing web design).

“To build anything, you need to apply your heart to it”, they say. According to me, though, you need a lot more. Constructing a tensile structure is a technical task but simple. In this article, I explain how.

Have you ever wondered what it takes to design a tensile structure of your own? Unlike the traditional buildings of brick and concrete this is not that difficult to design. But it isn’t easy either especially if you have no idea how the structures work and that’s precisely the reason why I am here.

If it’s the process that’s confusing you, it won’t confuse you any longer after this article. In this article, I will explain the entire design stage step-by-step. So, let’s begin.

Preparation is necessary. It doesn’t matter whether you are preparing for an exam or trying to construct a tensile structure, you do need some preparatory works. In case of tensile structure, it involves asking the right questions.

• What’s the purpose?
• What’s the intended life of the structure – is it to be temporary or is it to be permanent?
• How well is accessible is the site location?
• What about its maintenance once it’s completed?
• How much’s the money, honey?

Once you are done with answering the above questions, we begin the important steps.

Step 1: Designing is not a job made for all

By the most important stage. It affects not just the final outlook of the tensile structure but also the subsequent steps like fabrication and installation. Design is an art and an art takes time as well as expertise. The structures could be designed by taking the help of different softwares like AutoCAD, Mpanel etc. This step impacts the aesthetics to a large extent.

Step 2: Engineering is the strength

No construction is complete without the involvement of an engineer. They are crucial for deciding the stability, balance and safety of designs created by the tensile architect and designers. The engineers often work in conjunction with design team and are aided by various design software.

Step 3: Fabrication is the building block

Fabrication can be termed as the base of any tensile structure. Though largely dependent on step 1, fabrication has its own technicalities. In simpler terms, it involves creating a tensile fabric from raw materials – they could be different polymers like PVC, ETFE, etc. and/or fibers. It must be kept in mind that each polymer imparts its own unique characteristics to the tensile structure. The task of an architect is to choose the ones that fit and meet our requirements perfectly. This stage is crucial since much of the advantages attributed to a tensile structure like durability, resistance to heat and weather, flexibility, strength etc. is decided here. A properly fabricated fabric is usually multi layered.

Step 4: Fabrication of associated parts

A tensile structure needs anchorages and supports to hold the fabric. The shape of the structure too is largely dependent on their positions and/or placements. We need to fabricate them as well. Though largely made of steel, they could be made from other materials as well.

Step 5: Installation

‘All is well that ends well’, is a common saying and the same is true for tensile structure as well. One of their primary vantage point is the ease of installation. The structure is not completed until it is solidly installed at the desired location. In fact, it is the most crucial step because it defines how a tensile structure will appear in reality. By careful and clever placement of supports, the shapes and curvatures of the tensile fabrics can be adjusted accordingly. Though the shape and design is finalized in the step 1 and step 2, it’s here that they finally see fruition.

Step 6: Maintenance

‘Things always tend to go wrong’ is an oft repeated theme in Physics, fondly named as Murphy’s Law. In simple terms what it means is that everything in this world is bound to break down as it gets old. The key to extending this limit is proper and regular maintenance. Maintaining a tensile structure is rather cheap and easy compared to traditional structures. Usually it involves sweeping the dust off the fabrics or adjusting the anchorages etc. It could be done manually or you could use automatic dust sweepers as well.

By now I are pretty sure that you are well aware of the stages that are involved in erecting any tensile structure from scratch. Designing your own tensile structure could be fun. All that you need to do is follow this steps religiously.

1. Figure out why you need a shirt

No matter your reason for making a shirt, it’ll always involve a little bit of branding. If you’re using t-shirts for promotional purposes, branding is your main goal. Even if it’s strictly fashion, you’ll still need to weave consistent brand themes into all your products. For personal use-like commemorating an event, for example-you want to make sure your t-shirt design communicates clearly.If you haven’t already, write out a list of the key themes, styles, and personality traits you want your brand and shirts to convey. Is your brand playful or serious? Edgy or conservative? Luxurious or affordable? A focused t-shirt design can answer all of these questions at a glance.

Take a quick peek at the example above. What does it tell you about the Brewmasters company? For starters, they don’t take themselves too seriously, and the wooden instruments suggest a more traditional brewing style that hints at a classic taste. That’s a lot of information from a cartoon.

To get the most effective design, move away from your personal preference and rely more on real, quantifiable data. Who are your target clients/customers? What brand traits do they want to do business with?

Here are four t-shirt goals to help guide your design process by helping you understand why you need a shirt and what you want it to do.

Product designers face a lot of challenges. One of the most common challenges is that they can’t show how the final product will feel and look. Although there are many advancements in the world of 3D CAD, there still is a lot of room for improvement.

Nowadays, rapid prototyping or additive manufacturing is getting quite popular among designers, engineers, and manufacturers. The reason is that it allows manufacturers to get a better idea of the product potential. With RP, things get much easier. Given below are some of the most prominent benefits of rapid prototyping. Read on to know more.

1. Checking the Design Concepts

With RP, designers can turn their dream into an actual model of the product. This allows them to see and feel the product. So, designers can turn their ideas into a prototype before developing the actual product. Besides, it provides them with a proof of concept for their clients.

2. Making the Required Changes is Easy

With a physical model of the product in hand, incorporating the changes takes no time at all. Once the feedback is received from the customers, necessary changes can be made.

Before finalizing the product design, many iterations are required. And each process of iteration helps improve the design even more, building the trust with both consumers and the designer.

Aside from this, this technique helps find out the needs of the market, which allows the development of competitive products.

3. Cost and Time Saving

We know time is money. With additive manufacturing, no time or cost is needed to make special tools, patterns, and molds. And the same printing equipment and CAD programs can be used for making different geometries.

Compared to the traditional prototyping techniques like CNC machining, there is not much waste produced in the process. This is because rapid prototyping doesn’t use more material than is required to make the product.

4. Customizing Designs

Although RP offers many benefits, one of the most promising ones is that it helps develop customized products based on the requirement of a customer. Also, it doesn’t require special processes or tools for implementing design changes.

The whole process remains untouched when a minor change is required. For manufacturers, it’s greatly beneficial.

5. Minimizing Design Problems

Also, additive manufacturing allows you to detect flaws in the product design before mass production is commenced. As a matter of fact, the materials needed for developing prototypes create a unit that shares the strength and properties of the actual product. Moreover, it also helps engineers perform required tests without any problem.

Possible faults and Issues are easy to identify so that the final product is free of these problems.

As far as product design and development goes, the use of RP is a lucrative decision. Therefore, the use of this technique should be encouraged in the product centers. In fact, in a world of competitiveness, this technique can help manufacturers make innovative products without allocating a lot of money to meet the costs.

“I always wanted to be very observing,” Robert Frost once said, after reading his poem “Design” to an audience. Then he added, “But I have always been afraid of my own observations”. What could Frost have observed that could scare him? Let’s observe the poem in question and see what we discover.

Starting with the title, “Design”, any reader of this poem will find it full of meaning. As “Webster’s new world dictionary” defines “Design”, the word can denote among other things, a plan, or “purpose; intention; aim”. Some arguments for the existence of god (I remember from Sunday school) are based on the “argument from design”; that because the world shows a systematic order, there must be a designer who made it. But the word design can also mean “a secret or sinister scheme” – such as we attribute to a “designing person”. As we shall see, Frost’s poem incorporates all of these meanings. His poem raises the old philosophic question of whether there is a designer, and evil designer, or no designer at all. Frost probably read William James on this question, as a critic has shown convincingly.

Like many other sonnets, “Design” is divided into two parts. The first eight lines draw a picture centering on the spider, which at first seems almost jolly. It is dimpled and fat like a baby, or Santa Claus. It stands on a wild flower whose name, heal-all, seems ironic: a heal-all is supposed to cure any disease, but it certainly has no power to restore life to the dead moth. In this second line we discover, too, that the spider has hold of another creature. Right away we might feel sorry for the moth, were it not the simile applied to it in line three: “like a white piece of rigid satin cloth.” suddenly the moth becomes not a creature but a piece of fabric – and yet satin has connotation of beauty. Satin is luxurious material used in rich formal clothing, such as coronation grows and brides’ dresses.

Design is a very important component of a structure, whether it is a commercial, a home, an office space, or a building. This element is not just crucial to people looking for a great place to stay in if they visit or decide to live abroad but also to international real estate companies.

What Makes An Amazing Design

Color – This is among the most important ingredients of an excellent design. A competent designer or architect knows exactly how to match as well as make colors seamlessly blend with each other harmoniously. Some designers just stick to 3 or 4 variations; however, some just choose to make their intentions more vibrant by utilizing as many colors as they possibly can. Among the stylish color scheme being used nowadays is "flat". This is a type of shade wherein flat colors set a calmer and lighter mood to a complex setting. In fact, most houses have these advanced designs.

Dimensions – Another important trait of an excellent design is the shape and size of the house because it's where the use of space comes into play. Most people think that if a designer leaves an empty space in an area, it's not well thought of. The truth is that this is a great way of maximizing a cluttered interior. In fact, a skill that only experience can teach is how to position items in a structure. Knowing what will fit inside will actually include several factors like the number of items, the dimensions of the furniture, and which parts of the property must contain them.

Symmetry – Some people strongly believe in the concept of balance. On the other hand, there are some who see unevenness as symmetry. Regardless of which you believe in, the element of proportion is a very crucial factor that must be considered during the planning phase. Bear in mind that even if people see symmetry as more advantageous than an artistic characteristic, it can still be turned into a more impressive design. Real estate owners with pre-made furniture as well as appliances can greatly benefit symmetry since most interior layouts can conveniently and easily fit them.

These are just some of the crucial elements that make up an awesome design. It is very crucial for you to look for a real estate builder with the experience and expertise in the field. This will make sure that you will have a creative and functional design.
