The bone health is very important to support various human activities. Today, Osteoporosis which is known as bone disease become one of dangerous disease and can even cause death. Many of food manufacturers offered varied products containing calcium to nourish the bone. However, calcium itself is not sufficient to meet the needs of the bone. Vitamin D is also needed by the bone. We are able to get it from the sunlight in the morning which is good for the bone for free.  Unfortunately at this particular time many of people are in the house or building since it is time to work or study at school. The nutrients can be obtained for free but most people are not utilizing it properly.

Semi-outdoor dining room can be used as a place to get vitamin D from sunlight while having breakfast with the family in the morning. The dining room is near to the patio that both are separated only by glass wall and glass door. In the morning, you may open the glass door to feel the warm sunlight and the fresh that can enter the room freely. The warmth of the sun light will form vitamin D in our bones. Then together with the calcium which contained in the breakfast meals would be the perfect nutrition for bone. This dining room is also good for air circulation because of the fresh morning air will flow freely. Moreover, we can enjoy the garden view from the dining room.

The dining room is not only for breakfast, but also can be used for lunch or even dinner. To provide shades from afternoon sun light, we can use window shades or blinds made by natural material or synthetic. To bring the natural atmosphere, you can add potted plants in the corner. In addition, the use of the natural furniture such rattan furniture or wicker furniture can improve the natural atmosphere.

Young, dynamic, alive, and fun, lots of impressions can be created bright colors. At times applying bright colors for a vast area feel at risk. Otherwise applying bright colors only in small details as an alternative is great idea. For example it is applied on the cushions.

As a decorative element cushion has varied size, models and shapes. There are several size were made, 20 x 40 cm also 40 x 40 cm for bigger size. Variations that can be applied to the cushion including: border or ribbon embroidery and decorative tassel. Usually cushion is using cushion covers that are easy to install either to take it off when need to be washed. The application of lace, ribbon, and the print motif creates a bright look on the sofa as well the room itself. Cotton made cushion covers can be great option, either as this material is soft and smooth.

The material for cushion stuffing can be either Dacron, silicone, or goose feather. Goose feather filled cushion is expensive imported goods. The quality of goose feathers which are determined from the fur is obtained. Goose feathers from the neck believed to have the best quality. While the Dacron material or silicone has quality that is good enough. Regardless of the filler cushions, it affects the stability of form.

Whatever the shape, model or colors it may suit to the use. If you have bright wall color do not try to fuss it with other bright cushions either. Soften it with calm and pastel color. For usage on outdoor furniture may choose the bright color as it is contrast with the color of the plants and tree. The bright color cushions will enhance the garden furniture looks.
