HOUSE couple Darmadi and Lusia Frans was thick with Western style. The presence of a collection of Frans into balance. No wonder, this residential style tends to differ from others in the surrounding residential.
Frans family home located in the region Darmadi Labu, South Jakarta. Cowboy style complete with a "smell" Western diusungnya increase the uniqueness of this house.
The owner of the house is a collector of antiques. Some of the collection was a "color" in order exterior and interior of the house Frans. Frans inhabited house with his wife and two daughters has a Western-style facades.
It can be seen from the antiques are "scattered" on the front of the house, such as stools made from tree trunks, head of a bull, and the old water pump. Coloration which impressed one with Frans collectibles reflected from the use of white and brick Dutch period as the points of the building has an area of 600 square meters.
Frans says, nuance and the concept of home building today is the application of ideas that had long she had.
"So, the idea initially is how we apply the collection of goods which have historical value that can decorate the house," said Frans.
Although some items are old age and look old fashion, they still can be used according to its function. For example the water pump which is frequently used by families to water a plant, or a set of benches and tables made out of wire and the wheel rolls placed on the terrace.
Residential consists of four floors. Access to the upper floor there are two, namely through the garage and living room. The living room is located on the second floor. Before entering into the living room, there are tiles for the path to the garage, there is a minimalist garden next to "spread" brown tiled terrace combined with bricks.
On the wall mounted variety of antiques such as a bull's head and old oil lamp. Once entered into the drawing room which is not so big, warm impression was immediate. Especially since the owner of the house chose wood floors and furniture cowboys and other antiques, such as a saddle horse, cooking equipment, typewriters, and cabinets.
Cupboard which also functioned as a barrier between the living room and dining room join to add a "cowboy". White color dominates this room. In the next room there is the dining room. The dining table here is very unique because of its design as a table that is often used for the game of poker.
Frans make adjoining dining room with pantry. Pantry is also equipped with a unique black stool cowboy. All tools neatly packed and some items are often used on the kitchen table. On the left the dining room is partitioned side terrace with long windows and can be folded so that the room looks spacious.
In this room, timber and collection objects Frans still dominate. Side terrace is also equipped with a table made of drums with unique bench is once again cowboy style. Frans favorite of the things that smelled of cowboy and Western ingrained since he was a teenager.
No wonder, Frans house now? From the walls, the ceiling, until every corner of the room? dominated furniture or antiques, like a saddle horse, animal skins, and store cash machine. These objects have been Frans long time. He got it from some place and some were given by colleagues.
"Antiques are the results I can exchange with friends or my own search," said Frans.
