Energetic – Good or difficult?

Insufficiently insulated windows can form so-called cold bridges in the facade. For this reason, the replacement of old windows is always one of the first measures in a renovation. This is because a lot of energy is lost in a house through old and not well insulated windows. The roof, exterior walls, exterior doors, windows and the floor slab are the building components that seal off the outside. The energy efficiency of a building depends to a large extent on them, as the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy also states.

Energetically ideal are windows with panes that have a metallic coating. The spaces between them are filled with inert gas. Their insulation values are three times higher than those of single-glazed windows.

Ideal: windows with panes and metallic coating

Bright rooms look more friendly and spacious:

Source for more light

If you are in a room with many windows, you use less energy for artificial light. Especially in the house in the hallways, generous window areas and glass in the house have a positive effect on energy consumption.

Special case corridor

If you have daylight in the hallway for long stretches, you need light there exclusively at night, at least in the summer. In addition, a house looks friendlier if the entrance area is full of daylight. But how can this be achieved? Firstly, through front doors with side panels or skylights. Through these, the light comes directly into the hallway. A high-quality frosted glass film provides privacy at this point. It lets the light in, but does not allow people to see inside the house from the outside. The film can be ordered made to measure and easily applied.

Frosted glass film allows light into the room while protecting privacy

Another option for more light in the hallway are interior doors with glass. These can be all-glass doors or glass inserts in the doors. Similarly, skylights in the house are a way to get the light from the rooms to the interior of the house. Again, the use of frosted glass film can provide privacy.

Effect of large windows in living rooms

Floor-to-ceiling windows are popular in modern living spaces in new buildings. Especially large window fronts create a nice feeling of spaciousness in the room. However, attention must be paid to two points:

• How to heat
• Where storage space or floor space remains

Heating type

Usually, the radiators are located under the window. This was done to counteract the cold bridge and distribute the warm air in the room as much as possible. Now, if the windows in a room are floor-to-ceiling, underfloor heating is ideal. This distributes the warmth already ideally in the space alone by its structure. It also counteracts cold spots on the floor, which can certainly occur with floor-to-ceiling windows.

Footprint

If a room has floor-to-ceiling windows, think about the upcoming furniture. As beautiful as window fronts are, if there is a cabinet in front of them at the end, they look strange. For this reason, the window design and the room should think about the use and furnishings. Floor-to-ceiling windows are not always the ideal solution in small rooms. If floor space for furniture is difficult, high-set narrower windows, as in Scandinavian houses, can be an ideal source of light.

Ideal light sources in the kitchen

While floor-to-ceiling windows are nice at the dining area in an eat-in kitchen, it’s a different story with the windows directly at the countertops. There, on the one hand, a direct source of light is needed, but on the other hand, the floor space for the cabinets. For this reason, floor-to-ceiling windows in a kitchen are rarely the ideal solution. If the work surface is located opposite, the occupant stands in the light while cooking. If the work surfaces are placed in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, it is neither possible to ventilate well nor does the room really benefit from the floor-to-ceiling windows. For this reason, it makes sense to have smaller windows in a kitchen and light through skylights or narrower windows set higher again.

Tip: Higher set narrow windows allow good ventilation and let light into the kitchen

Large windows in children’s rooms

Children’s rooms benefit from brightness. At the same time, it must be remembered that a child plays intensively on the floor, especially during the first years of life. Whether it’s crawling, playing on a play rug or later concentrated building with Lego – a child spends a lot of time on the floor. Those who choose floor-to-ceiling windows in a child’s room must pay particular attention to insulation. Because while underfloor heating works effectively against the cold floor in winter, if the windows are not well insulated, the floor can get chilly even in summer.

Additional tip: Light wall colors reflect the light from the window and contribute to a pleasant atmosphere:

With age, a child may also feel disturbed by the openness of a floor-to-ceiling window. Better than pleated blinds or venetian blinds – which often do not suit the taste of a teenager, a frosted glass film fits here. It can be applied flexibly and protects against unwanted glances without the room having to be plunged into darkness.

Bathroom with daylight

In the bathroom, windows have several important functions. Windows provide the opportunity to ventilate the humid air from the room. They also provide daylight when looking in the mirror, which is often nicer than the very bright artificial lighting in the bathroom. To prevent unwanted views, higher windows are useful, especially on the first floor. On the one hand, a high light band lets the light in and offers the option of ventilation. In addition, bathrooms are often planned so small that lower-seated windows take away important floor space. Or the window sills at the end serves as a floor space and hereby the ventilation is more difficult.

Room size decisive

The size of the window must fit the size of the room. The windows should be freely accessible, so that in addition to light, they allow air into the four-walls. From too many gazes films safely protect the inhabitants of the house, without swallowing too much light. Living is always better with daylight in the premises.

Children’s beds: Cute designs with furniture and beds as bunny, hot air balloon & Co.

Children’s sleep is the best sleep, because when the little ones rest, the big ones finally get the chance to relax. In addition, good sleep contributes to the ability to concentrate and can thus contribute to improved academic performance. A comfortable bed that supports sweet dreams is therefore a win-win situation for everyone involved.

But adults can also enjoy the beds and in some of the wacky beds there is also room for tall people. The Kings & Queens bed, for example, is equipped with a 200 cm x 90 cm mattress. This makes it cramped, but it’s enough to comfortably fulfill the wish of a bedtime story.

Some of the sleeping spaces are also so much more than just that. The Bun Van, for example, offers a mattress and multiple drawers for clothes, pens, books and much more. The all-rounder also houses a screen stand and a mini-fridge.

Lamps collection: lamps and lights for the cosy children’s room

Who can claim to live in a personal cloud realm? With the lamps from Circu you definitely come a small step closer.

For the past few years, tutorials for cloud lamps have been popping up on Pinterest and other social media platforms. Not only are these easy to make with cotton wool and an inexpensive lampshade, but they look pretty darn good too. However, they come with one major drawback: cotton wool is a highly flammable material and is only suitable for lamp construction under certain conditions. So if you prefer to play it safe, you should take a closer look at the lamps from the premium brand.

The Cloud Lamp, for example, is available in two sizes and, in addition to a color-changing function, also offers the option of playing music or relaxing sounds via app. Other lamps from Circu are also:

• Letter Lamps
• Diana
• Atomic
• Cosmo

Mirror Collection: Who is the fairest of them all?

Really fairytale are the mirrors from the offer Circus. Although Disney’s Snow White already came out in the 50s and even if you take a closer look, some flaws become obvious from a modern point of view, the saying ‘Who is the fairest of them all’ will probably last for a few more decades. This is at least the impression we get when looking at the mirror selection of the luxury furniture label.

• Cloud
• Bubblegum
• The Magic Mirror

Chair Collection: Spaced and animal comfortable

Butterflies, rabbits or rather a rocket? The label offers many different options when it comes to seating. This makes the chairs and sofas particularly suitable for a themed children’s and youth room. There are hardly any limits to creativity and even as an adult it is really hard not to become envious of the cool pieces.

• Rocky Rocket
• Dainty Armchair
• Cloud Sofa
• Pixie
• Little Bunny and many more.

Carpet collection: cosmic designs for almost every room

Circu sells three different carpet designs so far, but they all have the motto Earth Atmosphere and Universe. What about a carpet to match the cloud lamp, for example? A soft, comfortable carpet is especially great for small children to play on and gain new experiences.

• Cloud Rug
• Moon Rug
• Sky Rug

Desks: Tables & chairs for homework in heavenly surroundings

The working environment also has a great effect on children. A beautiful desk not only makes children’s eyes sparkle, but also has a positive influence on the child’s productive learning and working environment. Design themes here are the old favourites of Circu, Himmelsreich and Kaugummi:

• cloud desk
• Dream Desk
• Bubblegum Desk

Shelf collection: safely store books, toys and co. in the cupboard

A wide range of toys are extremely beneficial to a child’s development because toys are not just for amusement, but different tasks encourage different skills and areas of a child’s brain. Whether it is fine motor skills, gross motor skills or completely different skills is determined by the toy used.

So when it seems like the little ones have way too many toys, it’s important to remember that each object serves its own purpose. The best thing to do in such moments is to think about how to best store the little plastic and wooden pieces without having to fret over them again and again. This is where the shelves from Circu come into play, which not only offer a lot of space, but also look beautiful.

Inspired by globetrotters, industrial designs and a bit of seventies style, there’s a model for every room:

• Puzzled
• Cloud
• Fantasy Air
• Bubblegum

Facility for adults: Everyone is allowed to dream!

The furniture collection for all those who count themselves among the grown-ups or the young at heart has the motto

‘Mom and Dad have dreams too’

To meet the dreams of the great, Circu offers furnishings from other major furniture labels on its website. The selected pieces are still exceedingly high quality and something very special, but this time more in the sense of a fully grown person.

If you’re looking for even more inspiration for a complete home, much less just the nursery, check out our other articles on interior brands and luxury brand interiors for more inspiration. Brands offered by Circu include:

• Boca do Lobo
• Luxxu
• Maison Valentina

Magical furniture that enchants – Video

There’s no question about it: Circu’s furnishings are something very special and stand out, especially in the luxury segment. You often see minimalist designs and restrained colours here. The focus in the premium furnishing sector is much more on high-quality materials and timeless, elaborate manufacturing than trendy colours and cute looks that potentially no longer appeal after a while.

For adults this approach makes sense, but children have a mind of their own and would much rather sit in a rocket and don’t place much value on the craftsmanship of an object. Circu makes the furnishing dreams of the very young come true and puts a smile on children’s faces around the globe.

Beverly Hills is a city in its own right and is located in the middle of Los Angeles and right next to Hollywood. Everyone knows the prosperous community of 15 square kilometers and its 33rd inhabitants. Whoever can afford to buy a house in Beverly Hills has made it. The villas are mostly very large, very luxurious in their furnishings and always have a large garden. However, you won’t find ringing signs as most famous celebrities want to remain anonymous. Some villas are located on the world-famous Sunset Boulevard.

Sunset Boulevard and Rodeo Drive

The boulevard is about 35 km long and is considered the most famous street in the city. This street embodies L.A.. The street consists of filthy pubs and neon lights up to luxurious hotel skyscrapers and posh restaurants. Then the boulevard winds its way past the villas of Beverly Hill and Bel Air and finally to some of the most famous beaches in Southern California. Whether it’s dresses by Gucci, bags by Michael Kors or perfume by Chanel, you’ll find everything you need here. The Rodeo Drive is three house blocks large and has several designer brands. There you can find the celebrities who live in Beverly Hills. Together with the streets Beverly Drive and Canon Drive it forms the so called  Golden Triangle

Villa: modern architecture, luxury, Hollywood

The 792 square meter villa is a modern architecture in minimalist style. The façade is made of dark concrete, extra large windows and yet is homely and inviting. The villa consists of seven bedrooms, two dressing rooms, a living room as well as a family room, a large kitchen, eight bathrooms, some children and playrooms, a gym and even a home cinema. The large green area goes once around the property and contrasts with the simple walls of the villa. The backyard with a pool, a spa area, covered loggias. In the garden there is a heated salt water poll, a Jacuzzi and an outdoor kitchen with wood burning stove, barbecue and other amenities. So the family has everything they need. And everything for 24 million US dollars.

Great wardrobe

The closet is more reminiscent of a luxury boutique than a normal closet that everyone knows. A marble island offers space for Chrissy’s designer handbags or shoes and with the transparent closet doors and the interior lighting, the luxury items are shown to their best advantage.

Luxury kitchen and living room

The living room has an open kitchen with a large worktop and high-end Miele appliances. Perfect for Chrissy Teigen to try out the recipes for her cookbook. Thanks to the ten meter high windows, there is enough light inside the property. Despite the dark stone and wood tones, the rooms appear very brightly lit. The handmade white golden wooden tiles with mandala print from Thailand, provides in the living area for attention. The connection to Thailand was very important to Chrissy, because her mother comes from Thailand. John’s piano is perfectly placed at the entrance of the villa.

Children’s room: learning, playing and many cuddly toys

The daughter Luna and the son Miles also have their own playrooms. They are kept in the same style as the rest of the villa. However, they are crammed with cuddly animals and toys. The children are challenged at a young age. In the middle of the rooms is a wooden table where they can paint and write on it. The walls are covered with hundreds of books. When Luna finishes reading, she can play with her giant cuddly toys or with her mini kitchen. Like mother and daughter.

Bedroom furnishings

Sliding door cabinet

If you have little space in the bedroom, you should choose the furniture very deliberately to make the best use of the area. A larger wardrobe often does not fit in the room, because the doors can no longer be opened. The remedy is the sliding door wardrobe, which is the ideal solution in a cramped bedroom. No extra swing area is needed in front of the wardrobe to open the doors, so there is less space to spare between the bed and wardrobe. In addition to the practical advantage, sliding door wardrobes also look great. Both small and large bedrooms benefit from this, because the wardrobe convinces with its modern design.
