    NEON ADVERTISING SIGNS
    January 19, 1915 - U.S. patent

    A U.S. patent was issued to George Claude of Paris titled a “System of Illuminating by Luminescent Tubes” which led to the neon sign (No.1, 125,476). The patent describes the technical details to be observed in the construction of a tube well evacuated of other gases before the addition of one of the rare gases, especially neon. It considered the materials used and size of the electrodes, the diameter of the tube, and suitable operating pressure. Tube lengths of 5 to 6 meters were discussed, and how it was possible to maintain the light output for an extensive used life.

    BLACK AMERICAN PATENT
    January 19, 1954 - U.S.A.

    A patent for "Methods and Means of Defrosting a Cold Diffuser" was issued to its Black American inventor, F.M. Jones (No. 2,666,298). It gave a method to defrost using a heating medium when the surface of the diffuser has accumulated a layer of frost or ice which would otherwise reduce its heat transfer capacity. He used a compressor, condenser and evaporator which were interconnected in a manner such that the compressed refrigerant could also accomplish the defrosting of the evaporator in a defrosting cycle. He was a prolific inventor, whose first patent was for a "Ticket Dispensing Machine" in 1939 (No. 2,163,754), accumulating about 20 more patents relating to gas engines and refrigeration devices in 20 years.

Contemporary canvas art can be intelligently teamed with your decor and furniture to add life to your dull and bland rooms. Bare walls may wear a boring look. Instead, the right kind of painting or art piece can really make things look urbane, inspiring, visually appealing and even morale-boosting. But choosing any art work may not go well with your furnishing and general decor style. It is important to invest in the right kind of modern abstract art paintings.

The first step towards this direction is to get your colors right. Ideally, you may settle for one neutral color and one bold color. For instance, if your wall color is neutral or light, it is likely to look excellent with an art object of bold color.

In this regard, you should note that every room style will be different. You do not necessarily have to limit your color coordination to just two or three colors. You are free to play with multiple colors, provided they fit into your room and with your furnishing.

Spacing your modern abstract artworks should also be done intellectually. You can buy a painting in any size you desire. The empty space can be filled with more paintings so that your wall is actually a cluster of different but coherent hand-painted art paintings. Alternately, you may choose to buy a larger painting and put the entire focus over the single piece of art. Cramping should be avoided unless it works with you. Also, try to install special focus lights in order to throw light on the art piece.

If you are settling for multiple paintings or modern wall art sculptures, do not make a potpourri of multiple themes. For instance, a mixture of portrait, landscape and abstract painting is not usually preferable. It is ideal to hand a set of portraits or a set of landscape and seascapes or a set of abstract artworks.

Though, these are the universally applicable rules for decorative art paintings, you should never stick to any rule or mantra unless you can relate to it. Every individual is different and has an individualistic taste. You need to be true to yourself and rely on your instincts and your sense of judgment more than anything else.

Modern abstract art paintings offer you an array of art pieces and paintings to choose from. With time, you will learn to create magic out of them into your humble little space.
