Interior Design History
If you dig deeper you'll also find that interior design history goes back longer than just the sixties or the seventies. It spans centuries and it spans continents, and it is admittedly one of the more fascinating aspects of human life. You can tell a lot about a culture by the interior designs for that particular time, and you can tell a lot about the people by how they have gone about designing their homes.
No two people are alike and this is also reflected in the way they furnish their homes. Interior design history through the ages has shown us that two people living in the same era and even next door to each other might not always display the same outlook of society that a general broader view might give you.
For instance you might like to have more of an elegant and traditional look and feel to your home whereas your neighbor might prefer the well-lived in look and shun the elegance you so desire. Taken separately what you get is a cross cut of one part of the social outlook for that age. And an interior design history student of the future might be forgiven for jumping to the conclusion that society during our time was either obsessed with perfection, or conversely that society had deteriorated to such an extent that homes were kept looking like pig-sties!
The interpretation of what they come across is entirely up to their discretion and what society is like at that period of time as well. So we as the interior design history students will also place different connotations on what we perceive as the reasons for a particular look in a particular era. But there's no doubting that no matter what conclusions we come to there's nothing more fascinating to look at than our interior design history.
There is just one thing to beware of in looking at the interior design history. And that is not to decide that interior designs from that or any other period of time did not have originality and initiative.
Interior Decor
Whether you're trying to match some new interior decor to your old interior decor, or whether you're simply trying to refurbish your old interior decor, you might find yourself with the wrong end of the stick. Yours just might be a Herculean task and you might find yourself having to battle monsters at every turn. Monsters like Cost, Unavailability and Out-of-Stock might become bosom companions with your headaches.
So wherever possible you should try to get as close a match as possible to your existing interior decor and try and be satisfied with it. Unfortunately if you've got the redecorating bug in your blood then the last thing you might want to do is to settle for second best. So unless you're very attached to the old interior decor and old room design, you might want to think about going in for a newer look.
And this is where the fun part comes in and you get into the real nitty-gritty of redecorating. Then again if you just go with the flow and get your new room design sorted out you might be pleasantly surprised to find that you're coming across some interior decor which complements your old interior decor when you're going shopping.
Of course choosing new interior decor isn't always going to be easy if you're on the path to dumping out the window all of your old decor. Not for anything else of course but because you're probably going to want to choose a completely new decoration scheme for your room. This in itself can be a big job and something that's best done with a little bit of forethought.
However, after you get all of that sorted, all you need to do is to choose your new interior decor and cart it all back home. You might want to think about the best way to showcase your new interior décor so that it has pride of place in your newly repainted and refurbished room. Choosing new interior decor is the fun part of decorating and that's the truth of it!

Why Villa Puri Indah?
In the first place, VILLA is the most misused and abused word in Bali as it is used to describe almost anything that is not a hotel room.
Villa Puri Indah is a large, privately owned, stand alone villa, set in large gardens with a separate staff house for Suwito and Bon. It is not part of a “villa” complex which are not villas at all.
We are also not part of a rental group where staff in all the villas are recruited and trained in the same hotel-staff mould by the managing company. They will advertise “Butler service” and the like. We don’t have that as we believe our guests don’t want a Jeeves running around after them. They want to relax.
Many of these villas, as with the “villa” complexes have a shift-change at 3pm just like a hotel. We offer a family villa with the same people looking after you for the duration of your stay
Some villas offer a vehicle as part of the package which usually means they are a long way from anywhere. Some agents offer free cars too, but as they mark the price up $30.00 to $40.00 per day the”free” claim is a tad misleading.
Most people who come to Bali want to be close to a beach, but hardly any villas are anywhere near a beach, and of those that are, almost all are at places too dangerous to swim.
Villa Puri Indah is 100m from Legian Beach with direct beach access through the Maharta hotel.
This part of Legian beach is broad and close to a patrolled area.
Many privately owned villas are not well built or maintained and nor are they well run. Villa Puri Indah is and we have plenty of guest comments to back up this claim.
Villa Puri Indah was built as a family Holiday home when our children were in their teens, not as a “villa for rent” with the sterility that implies. Puri Indah has that comfortable, homely feel with staff trained by the owners in the relaxed manner of New Zealanders but the highest standards of cleanliness and hygiene.
Some villas seem attractively priced but at the end of your stay there are so many extras added to the nightly rate, such as shopping charges, mark-ups on ingredients bought for prepared meals etc. that they end up expensive.
Our rates reflect fair value for what we offer and there are no extras except toll calls (cost plus 20%) and very reasonable cooking charges, which actually go to the staff as a tip. Any rental cars, etc are charged at cost.

Villa Kemah Tinggi of Bali
Tucked away on a beautiful stretch of Bali's southwestern coast, Kemah Tinggi may be a little out of town but it is wholly to its benefit. Away from the overdeveloped sprawl of Kuta & the slick sophistication of Seminyak, this 4 bedroom seaside villa is set to become a destination in its own right. At once sophisticated & simple, intimate & casual, it loses nothing of its Balinese heart through its contemporary styling. This is cool tropical chic at its best, a lush private home that's a real find.
All decadent pampering, impeccable service, laid-back living & frangipani strewn lawns, Kemah Tinggi is ideal for those looking to escape a hectic lifestyle. Extremely child-friendly, here at last is a glamorous and sophisticated villa where families with even the youngest children can truly relax without traveling with the paraphernalia associated with family holidays. Amongst the villa's many special features are a solid pool fence and stair gates which can be installed if required, safe and full-sized cots, a wide-ranging and tempting children's menu, and staff who delight in and are attentive to young guests.
Just as ideal for couples or friends seeking to escape, Kemah Tinggi offers 4 master suites of equal importance with luxurious netted beds, spacious decks and indoor/outdoor bathrooms. Here is a private hideaway where every comfort has been considered and simplicity is of the essence. Beds are incredibly comfortable; showers can be taken in the sunshine, hidden amongst banana palms & heliconia; and shady terraces offer plenty of quiet corners to curl up with a book or to enjoy a massage. Lush, languid and luxurious, this is a haven which combines the comfort & intimacy of a private home with a level of service more commonly associated with the finest hotels. More than this, guests at Kemah Tinggi will revel in an ambience impossible to recreate in a luxury hotel - polished yet relaxed, spacious yet intimate, both unpretentious and utterly private.
Welcome to paradise - it's all yours.
The Nusa Dua of Bali
Because relatively few of the island’s 2.7 million people live near the sea and few tourists want to stay anywhere else, the plan looked really good on paper. But the resort was very slow to develop. It was only in the 1980s that Nusa Dua finally came into its own; it wasn’t until late in the decade those tourist projections were met.
In this Mediterranean-style, self-contained hotel resorts tourists can sun their near-naked bodies on white sandy beaches without scandalizing anyone and watch abbreviated pseudo-events performed in expensive hotel foyers. Those with a spirit of adventure may day-trip around the island in air-conditioned buses to pre-selected villages and tourist sites, leaving untainted the rest of Eden.
The early 1990s brought a more formal experiment in “village tourism,” wherein groups of tourists move discreetly in small numbers with a minimum of intrusion, making direct, low-impact contact with the Balinese. The idea is being tried in three Balinese villages, Jatiluwih (rice-planting and fabulous views), Penglipuran (a nearly Bali Aga village in Bangli), and Sebatu (woodcarving and other art forms).
Guests from the southern hotels experience something “real” by joining day or weekend excursions to these villages. This cultural tourism is really just an extension of enclave-style tourist development, consistent with the policy of limiting and canalizing tourist development to minimize its impact on Balinese society.
Boutique Hotels
Boutique hotels in Bali have been designed by Australian architect Peter Muller. Muller, who was the architect for today’s Bali Oberoi in the 70’s when it was still known as Kayu Ayu, perfected his vision of combining traditional Balinese architecture with a modern luxury resort. Many architects in Bali have followed Peter Muller’s style.
The Four Seasons Resort Bali, which has been named by numerous magazines as the best resort in the world, has been clearly influenced by Muller’s vision. This resort of nearly 150 individual villas each with its own pool, although large for a boutique hotel, it is the large grounds and the layout of the villas which give the impression that you have the entire resort and a private view of the entire island alone.
In the Sayan Gorge Bali there is Kupu Kupu Barong, a striking boutique hotel. For those truly looking for local character several new luxuries resorts often run by traditional princes have sprung up closer to Ubud in recent years. In particular one should take note of Ibah and which overlooks the Campuan River.
The royal family of Ubud has been hosting guests since early this century and one can feel this in the ambience and service. This combined with a host nearby temples and activities such as dance and drama available to visitors in Bali’s self declared artist’s village Ubud, offer a wonderful experience in the lap of luxury.
For those in search of a beach side boutique resort, there is in Candi Dasa East Bali, The Watergarden. Lorin, a new chain of luxury hotels, has also taken over management of the Saba Bai Resort Bali just east of Batubulan on the coast. Here you are in the real Bali totally surrounded by rice fields, coconut trees, Balinese villages and the great waves crashing on the beach. It is rare to find this sort of isolation.
Another tiny beach resort is the Tugu in the surfing beach Canggu north of Kuta and Legian. Here the owner has put on display his own collection of art thereby creating a special ambience.
If you have the money and want to really relax and enjoy yourself while visiting Bali, make sure that you reward yourself by staying in one or more of the world’s best resorts.

How To Choose A Florida Vacation Rental
I've owned a villa near Disney for many years and having rented it form time to time, we came to realize from chatting with our guests that one of their biggest challenges is how to choose the vacation rental villa that is right for them in the first place! This article reflects their experience and hopefully sharing it with you will make your choice easier...
Is a vacation rental villa right for me??
Whether you are seeking a magical Disney World Vacation or an active family holiday, a Florida vacation rental villa is one of the most flexible options available to you. Many visitors decide on a hotel or motel room. This can appear to be the cheapest option but has several disadvantages. As I'm sure you know if you wanted a suit of rooms in a hotel that offered all the facilities of a vacation rental villas, you would spend many hundreds of dollars per night! Limited space, limited bathrooms, neighbor noise etc - we've all been there! The convenience and space of a vacation rental villa not only make for a much more enjoyable vacation for everyone but when things go wrong these were an important factor for one of our guests when 3 of her 4 children became ill shortly after arriving. She was so pleased to have chosen a luxury vacation rental villa with the space and convenience of 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms as it meant that the whole family was not wakened when one member had to get up frequently during the night!
Convenience:
Probably the biggest advantage of your vacation rental - you can come and go as you please and do what you like, when you like. You might feel like a day by the pool on your own when the rest of the family go out, and that's exactly what you can have - moreover, its you by the pool and no one else to share it with - bliss!
Location:
This is the another important one factor in choosing your vacation rental! Its important to choose a luxury vacation rental villa that is close to the attractions that you will be visiting frequently. First time visitors have little idea of the scale of the Orlando area and the whole thing can be more than a little daunting. Its made even more confusing by the vast choice of vacation rental villas available and the lack of clear details on their location. We know that this has resulted in some families traveling long distances to get from their chosen location - not ideal. That's why we have clear links to maps from our vacation rental villa details pages. We want you to be able to plan your vacation and spend as little time as possible in the car!
Quality
We spent some time recently viewing and inspecting Florida vacation rental villas. The pictures on their web sites presented the villa very well in most cases but it soon became clear that they had been taken a very long time ago. Many of the villas were very tired, showed heavy wear and little attention to maintaining a comfortable environment for their guests. They were certainly far form the luxury vacation rental villas they were being marketed as! These problems showed up much more in the properties where the owners had clearly taken little interest and were managed by property management agencies (Large or small, and who, in turn rent them to the large holiday companies). This is one reason why we update the pictures of our properties each year (several times a year in fact!). This gives our guests the confidence to know that what they see is what they will get. Whilst booking direct with the owner does not guarantee quality, it does give you the opportunity to ask if the photos on the site truly represent the condition of a particular vacation rental villa today.
Check in/out
This is often overlooked as one of these things that has to be done but be careful. Check in and out is not usually at the villa! Its normally at the management company office where you have to wait in line with everyone else that booked through the same company. This means that you have to drive to and find the office from the airport. We know of offices that are over 15 miles from the vacation rental. Check the driving distances and times from airport to office and from office to your villa. (Be aware that if the office is in Kissimmee, it can be very busy and take a long time especially in the early evening). Note: We have an electronic access system so our guests can drive direct to their chosen luxury villa and let themselves in. The benefit of this system is clear - and you have no keys to lose or hand back.
Locality
What we mean here is the area surrounding the villa. Careful examination of the photos of some villas will show where they have been doctored to hide undesirable features. One of the favorites is to block out the lower areas of screened pool enclosures to hide the fact that there are many others very close to the villa. We do not enhance our photos. Check carefully or ask if the pool area is overlooked.
Games rooms
Some vacation rental villas advertise a games room with all kinds of entertainments. If this is something that you want to have in your villa, be sure to inquire whether it is properly air conditioned. The reason for this is that some owners have simply locked the garage door and installed a carpet and a pool table or foosball table and called it a games room. Its fine in December but impossible to use comfortably for much of the year.
Equipment
Check whether the equipment you need is 'included' or 'available' and know the difference between these terms. Included usually means that the item is included in the rent for the villa. Its important to know that 'available' usually means that the item is available but you will be expected to pay an extra charge for it. For example, a gas barbecue will cost you between $35 and $50 per week to hire (+ sales tax). A cot, baby seat or stroller can be the same each! That can make a significant unexpected dent in your pocket - check unless the information is explicit!
Summary
We hope that this guide helps you make your choice of vacation rental villa much easier. We think that vacation rental villas are exceptional value for money but there are some traps which we have highlighted. Whilst we realize that checking all these details might be a pain, we hope that it will help you have a much better vacation!
