A false window unit includes: a window frame which is disposed in a wall and includes an opening; an image display device which is disposed facing the opening of the window frame, and displays a landscape image toward the indoor space through the opening of the window frame; a light source which is disposed between the window frame and the image display device, and emits light simulating sunlight toward the indoor space through the opening of the window frame; and a sash frame which blocks part of the light from the light source.

A covering detecting falls comprising a body delimited by edges, a plurality of pressure sensors distributed in accordance with a selected geometry in the body a processor connected to at least some of the pressure sensors and which is arranged to collect state information of these pressure sensors, and at least a first socket and a second socket, each of which is connected to the processor which is arranged in the region of an edge and which is arranged so as to be able to be connected to a socket of another similar component. The processor is arranged so as to associate location information which is taken from this state information with location information of the component receive via the first socket information originating from a first other similar component and transmit, via the second socket, the associated information and/or the received information to a second other similar component.

A mid-rise residential building with a garage section, a lower section disposed above the garage section, and an upper section disposed above the lower section is disclosed. The upper section includes a corridor that traverses the building, but the lower section does not include such a corridor. The garage section includes a plurality of private garages. The lower section includes at least a pair of multistory dwelling units, where each unit has a through unit floor plan and each unit provides direct access to a respective private garage. The upper section includes a corridor. The upper section also includes a single story dwelling unit that is primarily accessible from the corridor; and at least two multistory dwelling units that have respective entranceways disposed laterally across the corridor from the single story dwelling unit. Each of the multistory dwelling units has a second floor with portions directly above the corridor and the single story dwelling unit. An elevator serves the corridor of the upper section, but it bypasses the lower section.

An apparatus includes a ladder assembly configured to be used with a vertically-extending wall assembly of a building having a window assembly installed to the vertically-extending wall assembly. The ladder assembly includes a housing assembly configured to be fixedly received (at least in part) in the vertically-extending wall assembly, to be mounted to the vertically-extending wall assembly, and to extend (at least in part) into the vertically-extending wall assembly of the building. A support assembly is configured to be fixedly attached to the housing assembly, and to extend (at least in part) into the housing assembly in such a way that the support assembly bisects the housing assembly. The support assembly, in use, provides any one of a handhold and a foothold configured for usage by a user.
