Sears Modern Homes
2021 Reprint of the 1913 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Reproduced from a rare 1913 edition, this volume features 112 designs for homes of "comfort and refinement. These authentic plans offer a wealth of information on building materials and other details, along with external views, floor plans, descriptions with prices, and more. Sears Modern Homes were catalog and kit houses sold primarily through mail order by Sears, Roebuck and Co., an American retailer. Sold primarily to customers in East Coast and Midwest states, Sears homes have been located as far south as Florida and as far west as California. Examples have also been found in Alaska and Canada. Sears reported that more than 70,000 of these homes were sold in North America between 1908 and 1940. More than 370 different home designs in a wide range of architectural styles and sizes were offered over the program's 34-year history. Sears Modern Homes offered the latest technology available to house buyers in the early part of the twentieth century. Central heating, indoor plumbing, and electricity were all new developments in house design that "Modern Homes" incorporated, although not all of the houses were designed with these conveniences. Primarily shipped via railroad boxcars, these kits included most of the materials needed to build a house. Once delivered, many of these houses were assembled by the new homeowner, relatives, friends and neighbors, in a fashion similar to the traditional barn-raisings of farming families. Other homeowners relied on local carpenters or contractors to assemble the houses. In some cases, Sears provided construction services to assemble the homes. Some builders and companies purchased homes directly from Sears to build as model homes, speculative homes or homes for customers or employees.

Island Whimsy
A house by the sea should be a house of dreams. Where windows and doors are thrown open to the ocean, and gusts of cool, salty air turn us all into kids again--buoyant and joyful. Spending childhood days on the beach and in the magical, romantic chaos of her family's rambling house internationally renowned interior designer Celerie Kemble has a deep-rooted connection to the sun and surf. However, in the summer of 2004, Kemble laid eyes on a wild swath of jungle in the Dominican Republic next to minty-blue water and an endless stretch of golden sand, she fell madly in love. Over many years, she designed a home away from home there, an island retreat--a clubhouse and a grouping of family homes and guesthouses--suffused with light and air, full of indoor and outdoor rooms for relaxation. In her latest book, Island Whimsy, Kemble recounts the deeply personal and creative journey of designing Playa Grande and bringing this labor of love to life. The chapters of this book are organized around the different ways Kemble sought to braid her family's story into the larger landscape of Playa Grande and to provide inspiration, joy, and respite to all who come. "Fantasy" looks at the way she used whimsical, dreamlike elements--from the latticework cabanas by the pool to the lamb statues on the property who "mow" the lawns--throughout the property to create a sense of play and possibility. "Light, Salt, Air" describes how she went about bringing the most precious elements of the beach into the homes themselves, creating a feeling of flow and permeability, and reminding visitors constantly of where they are. "In the Jungle" looks at the design cues she took from the flora and fauna of the tropical rainforest surrounding Playa Grande to create an alluring tension between chaos and refinement. "Sweet & Dark" examines the surprising color combinations that tango into life in the tropics--whether in the form of tribal prints in hot Gauguin colors mixed with Jordan-almond pastels or handmade objects like a papier-m璽ch矇 lobster mask that brings a shout of spirit to a room. Finally, "Texture" focuses on the powerful impact that thoughtfully layered materials--from rough, local coquina stone and painted antique wicker to the smooth polished cotton of Dutch wax prints--have on a space. Throughout this lovingly crafted book, ideas abound for anyone decorating a sunny home or fantasizing about spending time in one. Kemble shares inspiration for creating a sense of openness to the sea, sand, and sky; offering places to wash sandy feet or perfect viewing spots for a sunset-saturated drink; and infusing spaces with invitation, welcome, and magic.

Inviting Interiors
The first book from Atlanta interior designer Melanie Turner, whose pretty work has a modern edge. Inspired by fashion and borrowing a palette from nature, Melanie Turner's interiors possess a timeless quality that celebrates architectural details and classic design. In this fresh and serene first book, Turner shares her secrets for creating understated, sophisticated, and functional rooms. Balance, scale, light, and subtle coloration all factor into her designs, creating a timeless effect. The elegant spaces featured in the book maintain an emphasis on simplicity and understated glamour, featuring a blend of clean lines, found and fine objects, and custom-designed, sculptural furniture. Divided by look, the book features multiple homes illustrating each style. "Calm" showcases cool, white interiors, accented by natural textures like wicker and bone. "Clarity" celebrates graphic, contrasting rooms filled with black and white. "Collected" revels in richer colors, accessorized with lush velvet, rich patterns, and metallic accents. "Color" celebrates the power of a palette-driven interior, from spring green, to pale pink, to midnight blue. "Cool" is driven by a funky 1970s vibe, with macram矇 chairs and Moroccan accents. Regardless of the style, these rooms are united in the power and promise of their seamless, edited beauty.

Die Treppe des Grauens
Vielleicht verschw繹ren sich nur bei mir einfache Vorhaben zu einer schicksalhaften Gesamtbedrohung, die trotz tapferer Gegenwehr am Ende ein Ergebnis hervorbringt, das in der Regel ein abschreckendes Beispiel f羹r Dilettantismus darstellt. Die geschilderten Gest瓣ndnisse eines weitgehenden Scheiterns auf handwerklichem Gebiet m繹gen Meister ihres Faches zum Lachen reizen, andere Dilettanten jedoch tr繹sten, in dem Bewusstsein, dass sie nicht die einzigen und schon gar nicht die schlimmsten sind.

Photovoltaikanlagen bauen, pflegen und n羹tzen!
Dass Photovoltaikanlagen nicht gereinigt und gewartet werden m羹ssen, stellt sich bei immer mehr Anlagen als Fehleinsch瓣tzung heraus. Manche Betreiber warten aber so lange, bis das Moos am unteren Modulrand zwischen Rahmen und Abdeckglas eingewachsen ist. Das zerst繹rt das Modul", so H繹hentinger. "Nur wenigen Anlagenbetreibern ist bekannt, dass Moose und Flechten dem Modulglas Mineralien entziehen. Das ver瓣ndert die Materialstruktur und es entstehen milchige Stellen im Glas. Die mindern die Modul-Leistung langfristig. Von der Verschattung durch den Bewuchs ganz abgesehen", erkl瓣rt sie. Dass Schmutz von Modulen durch Schnee, Regen und einen hohen Selbstreinigungseffekt einfach abrutscht, h瓣lt sie f羹r kompletten Bl繹dsinn. "Bei einem Auto ist jedem klar, dass es gewaschen werden muss, wenn der Schmutz runter soll. Kein Mensch glaubt, dass ein Auto sauber wird, wenn es zugeschneit ist und der Schnee bei Tauwetter abrutscht. Es glaubt auch niemand, dass ein Regenguss Fahrzeuge vom Schmutz befreit", so H繹hentinger. " Aus meiner Erfahrung verschmutzen alle Oberfl瓣chen irgendwann, in irgendeiner Form. Manche weniger, andere mehr, aber in jedem Fall hilft nur noch reinigen", erkl瓣rt sie. Sylvia H繹hentinger spricht aus Erfahrung. Vor ihrem Sprung in die Selbstst瓣ndigkeit mit der Reinigung und Wartung von Photovoltaikanlagen war sie im professionellen Reinigungsgesch瓣ft t瓣tig. "Wer 5 Jahre seine Anlage nicht reinigt und Bewuchs auf den Modulen hat, der hat zu lange gewartet", sagt sie. "Solche Anlagen sollten sp瓣testens alle 2 Jahre gereinigt werden. Dann geht es schneller, es ist g羹nstiger und f羹r die Anlage und den Ertrag ist es besser", so die PV-Expertin. Nach ihrem idealen Kunden gefragt erkl瓣rt sie: " Verst瓣ndnis f羹r Anlagenreinigung solle er haben und offen sein f羹r Beratung". Die Antwort auf die Frage, wie sie in der von M瓣nnern dominierten technischen Photovoltaik zurechtkomme antwortet sie kurz und knapp mit "sehr gut".
