Home design - contemporary home design idea in Seattle

Our weather is moderate in San Diego and you could benefit from using a whole house fan to reduce your needs for air conditioning. Whole house fans keep your home cool through the usage of a powerful suction that pulls indoor warm air out, replacing that stale warm air with cooler outside air. Whole house fans can be manually turned on or programmed to run on a schedule. In order to achieve the desired results, windows for the home need to be open. The ideal time to run your whole house fan is when outside temperatures drop below inside temperatures. The fan will evacuate the warm air inside your home and exhaust it through the roof vents, while drawing in cooler outside air into the home through open windows. Design Options The simplest design option for whole-house fans are ceiling-mounted variations. These types of fans are installed in the attic between the ceiling and living space. These fans are the least expensive however they can be noisy and create vibrations. Ducted whole-house fans run much quieter than ceiling-mounted fans. With ducted whole-house fans, the ductwork will vent the inside warm air directly out of the home, rather than through attic vents likes the ceiling-mounted variation. With whole house fans you also have variable speeds that allow you to control the speed of inside warm air being expelled from the home. You can adjust it to high speed to flush air out quickly or low speed to allow for a continuous, gentle air flow. Programmable thermostats and temperature controllers add to the convenience by automating the whole-house fan.

Originally, the exterior of the Napa ranch residence was a standard knocked down stucco finish. We covered over the entire exterior of the house with a natural plaster product that has been made in Italy for centuries, known as Rialto or Vero. This product is a combination of slaked lime mixed with 60% reconstituted crushed marble dust. Quarried from the legendary Carrara marble mines. The finish itself is a vertically combed striated texture embedded into the plaster. While it cures, a transparent group of patinas are applied to the stone-like plaster substance to create a look of an aged villa.
