Good lighting can make the indoor space spacious and comfortable, but for homeowners with windows facing the west, the sunlight entering the house in the afternoon may increase the temperature inside the house, and after the indoor space absorbs the heat energy throughout the afternoon, If it cannot dissipate for a long time, the temperature in the house will continue to be high even at night, seriously affecting the quality of life. When summer comes, the duration of sunshine increases, and the problem of excessive sunshine naturally becomes more serious. However, even if you cannot move, it does not mean you have to endure it silently. As long as you know how to choose the right system furniture, you can help dissipate the heat in the house.
For rooms with windows facing west, try to use a large amount of white or light-colored system furniture and decorations to help reflect the heat energy from the sun, prevent heat absorption, and provide a visually refreshing and cool feeling.
Visual communication is the fastest way to cool down an environment, so design for color.
Choose a refreshing cool color for the space walls and furniture, such as light blue, pink blue, or pink-green tones, which have a cooling effect. Put it together with white-based furniture to remove the stuffy feeling in the space.
The bed frame of the loft bed should avoid having too many fences, baffles or system cabinets, and try to keep the upper and lower bunks ventilated so that the air can flow freely so that hot air can be discharged.
A crowded space can easily make people feel stuffy, while a simple and comfortable space can give people a cool feeling, so the design of the bed frame should be simple.
The high temperature of the sun and the large glass windows will create a greenhouse effect in the house, so avoid filling the entire window sill with the window sill. Reserve the window sill space to enhance air convection and provide a buffer space for direct sunlight.
Adding thermal insulation film to glass windows can block heat sources. For indoor curtains, you can use thicker blackout cloth, or a layer of blackout curtains and a layer of gauze curtains to reduce the degree of sunlight exposure and lower the indoor temperature.
Green plants have the effect of soothing emotions and calming people’s hearts. Being in the same space with plants naturally makes people feel calm and cool. Therefore, if you want the room to be cooler, you might as well decorate it with green plants.
Plant beautiful and easy-to-grow green plants such as golden kudzu and sansevieria at the windows or windowsills, which can absorb dust, make indoor air fresher, and achieve a cooling effect.
