There are a couple of factors when determining if you can use a wind turbine for your home. The first factor is do you have enough wind? Do you have enough space to place a turbine? Remember the turbine needs to be taller than anything in the area to get the most wind. If you have enough wind that can generate electricity, then check with your local code enforcement for any restrictions and if you live in a deed-restricted community check the codes. If there are no codes restricting having a turbine and the wind is a fair amount, then you will be a potential candidate for a wind turbine. While checking the codes you need to make sure that the height is not going to be an issue since your system could be 30 feet above your house.There are roof mounted wind turbines but I do not recommend these as they can damage your roof. Remember they are the tallest thing around so lightning can strike it. There are freestanding masts that most of the turbines for homes are mounted. These masts are 30 feet or more up in the air so you can plant a garden underneath it. The land will still be available to use. I know a farmer who has them in his fields with a crop planted underneath them. Our turbine is out by our garage. It is mounted on a pipe that has guide wires to the ground and to the garage for stability. The base is cemented into the ground with the base being pivotal to bring it down during hurricane season.There are vertical and horizontal wind turbines. We have found that the vertical wind turbines are quieter than the horizontal, but they both make noise. Living on a small farm, we do not notice the noise but if the turbines were close to the house, you would notice the sound.Keeping the turbines high in the air makes it safe for children. Remember these turbines do not stop on a dime and are going at remarkable speeds so teach children not to play on or near the turbine. Children are especially interested in the turbines that look like airplanes. They think they are a toy. They are very dangerous.

Wind turbines for the home are manufactured by many different companies. Make sure the one you buy is of good quality and has withstood the test of time. You do not want to purchase another wind turbine after the one you purchased bent, cracked, twisted and some even fell apart of 1 year of use. Find out if there are replacement parts, warranty on defect products and what is determined to be defective. This is a big expense on your part to get this system and you want the best system available. There is one thing I recommend. Some companies sell a camping wind turbine that you can take with you camping. These are relative inexpensive compared to a whole system. Buy one and try it out. Maybe run the charger for your boat batteries or run something outside to try it. Maybe run a stereo for a party or take it camping to watch TV or listen to radio. Try this and see if you can live with the noise and reliability of the wind turbine.

Professional interior designers are expertly trained in the use of lighting features to create breathtaking results. In this four-part series which I call “Colour Me Brightly: Understanding Light in Interior Design,” I draw on my experience in London’s interior design community to explain this fascinating subject. This first article is about patterns.

Ask a London schoolgirl to imagine natural patterns, and she may talk at length of curvaceous seashells, the undulating edge of waves on the shore, the grooves in a gnarled tree trunk. Interior designers know that patterns are all around us. Patterns profoundly influence all interior design schemes, transforming our appreciation of color and texture, adding fluctuations and drifts or promoting harmony and stillness. London Interior Designers will focus on soft, fluid outlines in order to create relaxing patterns. By contrast, bold graphic statements in a wallpaper stencil can be invigorating for a London discotheque or salon. Pattern is a foundational ingredient of interior design, fragmenting overwhelming shapes and plain surfaces while simultaneously lending personality and profundity to a room.

London’s professional interior designers know one big secret: pattern is created not only by fabric and wallpaper. Light also forms any number of patterns through a virtual tussle or rough-and-tumble interaction between light and shadow. Light patterns are foundational to interior design schemes – from snippeted, kinetic and frosted patterns to curvy arcs, spearhead-style lines and theatrical projections of abstract forms.

Patterns of light fall into two main interior design categories. The first is all about objects in the path of light, casting shadows. We draw our inspiration from the natural world where, when sunlight strikes rippling water on London’s famous River Thames, flickering patterns are reflected up into the trees along the water’s edge. Similarly, if an artificial light source is directed onto water – perhaps a pool, fountain or babbling artificial brook – active reflections will dapple the surrounding walls and become an interior design feature. Sunlight may shine through the branches of a tree to create moving patterns of light and shade below, and similarly a low-voltage uplight, positioned behind indoor plants, can create beautiful interior design features on the walls and ceilings. This technique can be stunning both inside and outside the building.

In my next article, I turn to patterns that use perforations and glass.
