Mastering Your Home Renovation

What A Luxury Remodeler Wants You To Know

What is a remodeling project actually going to cost?

In Southlake today, kitchen remodels often range from $150,000–$350,000+, primary bathrooms from $75,000–$150,000+, whole home remodels around $250–$400 per square foot and major additions from $400–$550+ depending on complexity and finishes Scope, selections and planning all affect the range. Moving walls or plumbing adds cost, and custom materials are more than standard options. When bids vary widely, it’s often because proposals aren’t pricing the same scope or rely on unrealistic allowances.

How can we prevent budget overruns?

Budget overruns often happen when decisions are made too late. Starting construction before design and selections are finalied can lead to costly surprises. The best way to control costs is to invest in detailed planning up front, make real major selections before demolition begins, and be honest about priorities.

How long will these projects realistically take?

Primary bathroom remodels typically take 8–12 weeks. Kitchen remodels take about 12–16 weeks. Large multi room projects can take 4–6 months, while whole home remodels or major additions may take 6–10 months or more. Because it happens inside an existing structure, unexpected issues can always happen. Investing heavily in pre construction leads to a smoother build.

Is it better to hire a design-build firm or a separat designer and contractor?

Both models can work. In a design build model, the designer and builder collaborate from the start, align ing budget, design and construction decisions. Hiring separately can also deliver strong results, but it re quires clear communication between teams. Without that, the homeowner often becomes the middleman.

What should we look for when choosing a remodeling contractor?

Look beyond photos. Ask how budgets are devel oped, how unexpected issues are handled and how communication works during the project. You’re inviting a team into your home for months. Experi ence, organization, and transparency help ensure the process feels structured rather than stressful.

Leading the Charge for Celiac Awareness

Carroll Senior Takes Advocacy to Capitol Hill

For Carroll Senior High School senior Kylie Connor, raising awareness about celiac disease has become more than a growing movement – it’s a personal mission. The student advocate, who was diagnosed with celiac disease when she was 10, recently traveled to Washington, D.C., where she joined national leaders and policymakers to push for greater awareness, research and support for those living with the autoimmune disease.

Connor was selected by the Celiac Disease Foundation to participate in a series of advocacy meetings with members of Congress and their staff. As the only representative from Texas, she spent the day meeting with lawmakers to discuss policies that could expand research funding and improve resources for people with celiac disease.

“We were encouraging FDA approvals, increasing research through the National Institutes of Health and getting more people involved in the congressional celiac disease caucus,” Connor said. “It was really cool to be able to take those meetings and share why this matters.”

Closer to home, Connor is also organizing local Celiac Strong Day efforts on May 1, now in its third year across Carroll ISD, encouraging students to wear blue — the official color of celiac awareness — while participating in hands-on lessons and awareness activities.

“I really want to raise awareness,” Connor said. “Even small things like wearing blue can help start conversations.”

Connor plans to continue her advocacy while studying biology and nutritional sciences in college next fall.

From Art In The Square’s People’s Choice Winner To Festival Icon

When Holly Glenn firt applied to Art in the Square (AITS) in 2023, she knew it was one of the top juried shows in the nation – the kind of festival artists work toward for years. What she didn’t expect was to be accepted on her firt try. Three years later, the impressionist, based in Liberty Hill, near Austin, has not only earned the 2025 People’s Choice Award, but her vibrant “Highland Cow 3” has been selected as the officialogo artwork for Art in the Square 2026. Known for her colorful, textured wildlife paintings, Holly brings whimsy, warmth and a touch of magic to every canvas. Now she’s bringing it to Southlake’s most beloved art festival.

I COME FROM A LONG LINE OF… creatives. My family owned a gallery in Colorado, and some of my earliest memories are walking through those spaces, completely captivated. I went on to study at UC Berkeley and participated in art shows during college. After my firt pop-up market – where I made about $200 – I realized this could actually be more than a hobby. That moment gave me the confidene to pursue art professionally.

MY WORK IS ROOTED IN… impressionism. I create colorful, highly textured wildlife art using acrylics. My process blends vibrant layers, intri cate detail and unexpected pops of metallic and iridescent finishes Animals are my primary sub jects – foxes, highland cows, expressive wildlife –often painted with exaggerated expressions that bring a sense of humor and personality to each piece. I want my paintings to feel joyful, dynamic and full of life.

COLOR AND TEXTURE ARE… everything. Through detailed brushwork and layered ap plication, I build depth and movement across the canvas. I love using bold hues that ener gize a scene and invite viewers in. The metal lic elements add dimension and light, giving each piece a subtle glow that shifts depend ing on perspective. It’s about capturing not just what an animal looks like, but how it feels.

ART IN THE SQUARE IS TRULY… next level. The caliber of artists is extraordinary. You’re sur rounded by some of the best in the country, and the level of professionalism is unmatched. The Southlake Women’s Club volunteers are some of the most organized and supportive people I’ve ever worked with. And the community – they genuinely value and understand art. People come ready to engage, to ask questions and to celebrate creativity.

WINNING THE PEOPLE’S CHOICE AWARD… was incredible. It meant so much because it came di rectly from the community. To know that festival goers connected with my work in that way was deeply affirmin It’s one thing to be juried into a show — it’s another to feel embraced by the people attending it.

HAVING MY ARTWORK SELECTED FOR THE 2026 LOGO… is a true honor. The logo artist each year represents the spirit of the festival, so being chosen feels surreal. I’ve become friends with past logo artists and have admired their work for years. To now be part of that legacy — and to see “Highland Cow 3” represent Art in the Square — is incredibly special.

THE ARTIST COMMUNITY AT AITS… is remarkably supportive. There are seasoned veterans who have been doing this for decades, and they’re generous with advice and encouragement. That collaboration and camaraderie make the experience even more meaningful. It doesn’t feel competitive — it feels communal.

WHAT I LOOK FORWARD TO MOST EACH YEAR… is the people. From fellow artists to or ganizers to families walking through the festival, there’s a shared appreciation for creativity. I love reconnecting with artists I’ve known for years and discovering new work I haven’t seen before. The energy is inspiring.

AT THE HEART OF MY WORK IS… joy. I want people to smile when they see my paintings. Hu mor and whimsy create connection. When some one pauses, laughs or feels drawn into a piece, that’s the magic. If my artwork can spark a little lightness — and maybe even a deeper apprecia tion for wildlife and conservation — then I’ve done what I set out to do.

CRAFTING HOMES WITH INTEGRITY AND TIMELESS DESIGN

Southlake

Builder Shapes Communities With Quality and Care

For more than 20 years, Mike McKellop has built a reputation rooted in longevity. What began as a commitment to doing things the right way has evolved into a respected Southlake company known for thoughtful design, careful execution and homes that stand the test of time.

At Sierra Fine Custom Homes, each project is approached as a collaborative process centered on understanding a homeowner’s vision, lifestyle and long te rm goals. By prioritizing that foundation, they create homes that feel both architecturally distinct and inherently personal – brought to life through the shared expertise of his internal team and long standing trade partners.

That approach is grounded in experience. McKellop, a proud military veteran, credits his service with shaping the values that guide his work, including discipline, integrity and consistency. Today, those values are reflected not only in his leadership, but in a dedicated internal team and trusted network of subcontractors, many of whom have worked alongside him for nearly two decades, reinforcing a standard of quality that carries through every project.

In recognition of that dedication, Sierra Fine Custom Homes was named first place winner in the Home Builder category in Southlake Style’s 2026 Readers’ Choice Awards. The honor reflects not only the homes themselves, but the people behind them. After many years in the industry, McKellop remains actively involved in every project, ensuring each home reflects the standards that built the company’s reputation: integrity, craftsmanship and pride designed to last for generations.

“The strength of our homes comes from the strength of our team—people who care about the work as much as the people we’re building for.”

Things Are Looking Up Designers

Are Finally Claiming the Fifth Wall

For decades, the ceiling was the most polite surface in the room — white, fla and unnoticeable. Or worse, popcorned into oblivion, 1970’s style. It was the architectural equivalent of background noise. Now? It’s having a moment.

Designers are increasingly reclaiming what they call the “fifth wall,” treating the ceiling more like prime real estate than negative space. The idea is deceptively simple: give the surface overhead the same intentionality you’d give any wall in the room. If done well, the effect can be transformative.

Wallpaper has emerged as the vehicle of choice. Whether subtle grasscloth, a hand-painted mural or unapologetic print, a patterned ceiling shifts the energy instantly — drawing the eye upward and creating a layered, immersive atmosphere that four walls alone can’t quite achieve.

Sarah Lambert, one of the sisters behind Lambert Home, whose new Southlake showroom location opened this March, is fully on board. In the showroom’s kitchen display, a vintage Ralph Lauren cheetah-print wallpaper wraps the ceiling in confident glamour. The result is less safari, more statement. “The psychology of a treated ceiling speaks to our evolutionary need to be cozy, protected, and safe,’ Lambert says. “It comforts us by emphasizing that we’re fully enclosed and gives us the freedom to relax.”

That element of surprise is part of the allure. A ceiling treatment isn’t absorbed all at once. You enter the room, settle in — and then you look up. It creates a sense of delight, even intimacy, as if the space is in on a secret.

There’s also a practical logic to the trend. For homeowners intrigued by bold design but wary of committing to a fully wrapped room, the ceiling offers a clever compromise. It carries visual weight without enclosing the space, and because it sits just outside our immediate sightline, it reads as playful rather than overpowering.

Scale, Lambert cautions, is critical. “We don’t believe there are hard-and-fast rules for what patterns should be used where, but always keep scale in mind. The ceiling will be further away from you so the pattern needs to be large enough for your eye to distinguish what’s going on,” she notes. Pulling colors or motifs from existing elements – a rug, upholstery, drapery – ensures the ceiling feels integrated rather than ornamental.

One caveat: this is not a DIY experiment. Pattern alignment, ladder work and overhead precision are best left to professionals.

Includes: (2) barn-style doors and (4) roof vents

Price: $17,250 EXACO.com

Enter: The Riga XL, a "professional-grade" sanctuary featuring a unique "onion" shape that allows North Texas wind gusts to blow right over the top while providing a soaring 10-foot peak for your indoor lemon trees. Upon setup, the 16mm triple-wall glazing provides a level of insulation typically reserved for commercial operations. It keeps the interior significantly cooler in July and warmer in February, reverting your backyard into a yearround tropical paradise regardless of the "unpredictable" local forecast.

This shape isn't just a conversation starter; it’s an engineering feat designed to maximize light

transmission while minimizing the heat gain that often plagues local gardens in the summer. In keeping with a high-performance look, this greenhouse features a reinforced aluminum frame and wide "Dutch" doors that are wheelchair and wheelbarrow friendly. The heavy-duty rubber seals ensure that when the North Texas "heat dome" settles in, your climate-controlled sanctuary remains airtight and efficient

Inside, the Riga XL feels more like a laboratory than a garden shed, offering enough space for a full potting bench and deep-winter vegetable production. Despite a price that reflectsits German heritage, the Riga XL remains the top choice for the serious grower — reminding us that when it comes to plant survival, shape and substance are everything in the Southlake weather.

YOUR Spring Clean BEAUTY ROUTINE

There’s No Better Time to Refresh Your Skin

Spring cleaning typically means overstuffed closets and longneglected garage shelves. But for many, the seasonal reset extends to something more personal — their skin.

After months of dry indoor heat and heavier winter products, complexions often emerge looking dull, congested and dehydrated. Local med spas see it every year in their appointment books. Clients are seeking targeted treatments before the punishing Texas summer arrives. The starting point, however, is simpler than most expect.

Build the Foundation First

"All good skincare regimens start from the inside out," says Dr. Angela Straface of Feel Ideal 360 in Southlake, a Readers' Choice favorite. "Sleep, hydration, nutrition, and hormone balance all affect how your skin looks and feels."

That philosophy extends to the medicine cabinet. Before any in-office treatment, the daily basics matter enormously. Chief among them: sunscreen. "It's the single most important thing you can do for your skin," Dr. Straface says. Daily SPF is nonnegotiable year-round, but especially heading into a Texas summer. Without it, even the most carefully planned treatment protocol will underdeliver.

Medical-grade skincare products, which typically feature more advanced delivery systems and more potent ingredients, reinforce that foundation between appointments. Look for formulas containing antioxidants, peptides, and retinol that support the skin's natural repair cycle and encourage healthy cell turnover. Peptides — short chains of

amino acids that act as cellular messengers — strengthen the skin barrier and signal collagen production.

The reason it all matters: in-officetreatments can only do so much without daily support. "It's like going to the gym twice a year, hoping for the best," Dr. Straface says of patients who skip their skincare routine but still expect results. And the baseline she's working from may be lower than you'd think. "Some people are still using the same bar of soap for their face that they clean their [body] with," she adds, laughing. “Just don’t!”

Facials: More Than a Monthly Indulgence

Professional facials have evolved well beyond relaxation. Today's most effective treatments are therapeutic — designed to stimulate collagen, clear winter buildup, and drive active ingredients deeper into the skin.

HydraFacial remains one of the most requested spring treatments, combining cleansing, exfoliation, and hydration in a single

THE 4 TENETS OF GLOWING SKIN

Great skin isn’t luck — it’s a system. Skip the basics, and no treatment can catch you up. Get all four right, and it shows. Here’s what actually works:

1. START FROM WITHIN:

Sleep, hydration and nutrition set the foundation for everything else.

2. SPF, SPF, SPF.:

Wait, did we mention SPF? Daily sunscreen is the single most powerful anti aging step. No exceptions.

session. But Dr. Straface points to a newer option called exosome therapy that is generating significant interest in her practice

"Exosomes help signal the skin to repair itself," she explains. "They can dramatically increase collagen production and improve overall skin health."

At its core, exosome therapy is a regenerative treatment that enhances cellular repair and accelerates rejuvenation. When paired with microneedling, it amplifiesthe skin's natural healing response — strengthening the barrier and boosting hydration ahead of months of sun exposure. For patients looking to address texture, dullness, or early signs of aging, the combination has become a go-to spring protocol.

One notable exception: lasers and medical-grade peels. While they set the bar for effective skin rejuvenation, they are best saved for fall and winter, when sun exposure is lower, and skin can recover without the risk of hyperpigmentation. With summer fast approaching, the window for those treatments is closing fast, if it’s not already too late.

3. UPGRADE YOUR ROUTINE:

Medical grade products with active ingredients deliver real results over time.

4. SUPPORT WITH TREATMENTS:

Facials, lasers, peels, and injectables enhance results, but only when your daily routine is doing its job.

L.A.B. Med Spa, also a Readers' Choice winner. "Neu rotoxin softens expression lines, while filler enhances areas like cheeks, lips, chin, and jawline."

Used together strategically, the results tend to look more natural and more balanced. "The best outcomes come from a full-face approach," Ellis says. "Not chasing a single line like it personally offended you."

Dr. Straface adds that some injectables go further than filling. "Radiesse doesn't just fill — it improves the quality of the skin. It stimulates multiple types of collagen, increases blood flo and improves elasticity." For patients focused on long-term skin health rather than a quick fix, that distinction matters.

"All good skincare regimens start from the inside out."
— Dr. Angela Straface

Injectables: Restoring Structure, Not Just Erasing Lines

Injectables remain among the most popular ways to refresh facial features, though the most sophisticated approaches today focus as much on skin quality as on volume. And the aesthetic has shifted considerably.

"The Nicole Kidman look has gone by the wayside," Dr. Straface notes. More patients are seeking natural-looking results, which requires both skill and restraint from their injectors.

The two primary categories — neurotoxins (like Botox and Dysport) and fillers (like Juvederm and Restalyn) — work differently and serve different purposes. "Neurotoxin calms movement, while filler restores structure and volume," says Sonya Ellis, a certified plastic surgery and aesthetic nurse at The

Expertise Matters

While aesthetic treatments have become increasingly accessible, experts emphasize that experience and medical training should always come first.

“Injectables are medical procedures,” she continues. “You want someone who understands facial anatomy, skin physiology and how different treatments interact.”

For anyone considering a spring skin refresh, both experts recommend beginning with a consultation rather than a checklist of complaints.

"We look at your skin concerns — acne, pigment, redness, texture, fine lines — along with your lifestyle and current products," Ellis says. "From there, we create a plan that usually includes medical-grade skincare, strategic facials, and, when appropriate, lasers or injectables."

Spring cleaning the hall closet can wait. The skin you'll be living in all summer cannot. A thoughtful reset now — especially with the right expertise — can mean the difference between heading into June depleted or genuinely glowing.

Before it became the Christmas Capital of Texas, Grapevine was well known as the Wine Capital of Texas. In a city with that kind of reputation, the bar is set high. At Bacchus Kitchen + Bar inside Hotel Vin, the bar just moved a bit higher.

Under the direction of Culinary Director Joseph Thomas, the signature restaurant has unveiled a reimagined culinary program built around one guiding principle: let the wine lead. The menu centers on elevated comfort food, featuring recognizable dishes refinedwith subtle global touches.

Small plates encourage sharing and set the tone for the evening. But we also wouldn’t judge you for ordering the Sauvignon Blanc Mussels

and keeping them all to yourself. The decadent mussels arrive steaming in garlic butter broth with preserved lemon that practically begs to be sopped up with the accompanying pillowy focaccia. Paired with a cool, crisp Sauvignon Blanc, it’s basically heaven in a bowl.

There’s also the mouthwateringly umami Maitake Mushroom Toast, which layers earthy mushrooms over truffledricotta, finishedwith pistachio gremolata for crunch and color. And don’t sleep on the Gulf Blue Crab Cake, crisp at the edges and tender within, and lifted by roasted corn poblano relish and Tajín-lime rémoulade that give just enough bite.

Even the salads make an impression. The signature Vin layers baby kale with roasted grapes,

candied walnuts and Gruyère, glossed in a lively ver jus vinaigrette. The sweetness of the walnuts balances the gentle bitterness of the greens, while the roasted grapes add a soft, jammy depth. It’s especially lovely alongside a chilled rosé, which amplifiesthe fruit without overwhelming the greens.

The Caesar takes a similarly unique approach. Instead of traditional croutons, a buttered panko crumble ensures that every bite is infused with crunchy texture without overpowering the Little Gem lettuce. A cured egg yolk and anchovy-garlic vinaigrette lend richness and depth, creating a version that tastes familiar and fresh at the same time.

For something heartier, the Angus Meatloaf “Au Poivre” makes a compelling case for redefiningcomfort food. Glossed in Cognac cracked black pepper cream and served with silky pomme purée and caramelized pearl onions, it’s decidedly not your grandmother’s meatloaf. The Wild Mushroom Risotto follows the same philosophy of restraint and depth. Mascarpone lends silkiness, while black truffleand aged sherry deepen the earthiness. A juicy Pinot Noir, such as Argyle’s Bloomhouse, proves a natural companion to either. Its bright red fruit and gentle tannins lift the peppered richness, keeping each bite balanced and vibrant.

But it’s not just dinner reimagined at Bacchus. Brunch feels like a celebration. French Toast Au Vin is brûléed just enough to crack under the fork, soaking up citrus zest custard and blackberry thyme maple syrup. A Burrata & Prosciutto Frittata folds free-range eggs around creamy burrata and slow-roasted heirloom tomatoes. A Crab Cake Benedict drapes piquillo pepper hollandaise over delicate crab, served alongside perfectly crisp Yukon breakfast potatoes.

No matter how satiating the brunch or dinner can be, take our word for it: save room for dessert.

The 12-layer chocolate cake arrives with presence — tall, glossy and stunning. Chef Thomas joked it’s designed for “one to twelve people,” though judging by its richness and sheer size, sharing is strongly encouraged. Paired with a pour of tawny port, like Sandeman 10-Year, the experience is pure indulgence, in the best way.

Bacchus has always been a destination for anniversaries, girls’ nights, quiet date evenings and spontaneous weekday escapes. The new menu simply makes a good thing even better.

A Slice Of Life

Patience Is Secret Ingredient At Acquario's Latest Keller Outpost

The local landscape for authentic international cuisine grew significantlythis March with the debut of Acquario Pizza, Pasta & Bar in Keller.

While their acclaimed flagshipis known for refine Italian seafood, this new destination brings the Ac quario name into a more approachable, pizza focused light. This isn’t your typical neighborhood parlor; it is a Mediterranean-influened kitchen led by Master Piz zaiolo Chef Gimmy Piperku, who brings a disciplined touch to every dish.

Acquario sets itself apart by embracing the Pizza Napoletana Contemporanea style — a modern evolution of traditional Neapolitan pizza that emphasizes high quality imported ingredients and a light crust. Each pie begins with premium Caputo floursourced directly from Italy. Rather than the dense, heavy doughs often associated with standard American pizzerias, Chef Gim my employs a long fermentation process that develops a delicate, airy structure. When baked in an authentic wood-fied stone oven, the intense heat creates the sig nature “leopard spotting” along the outer rim, produc ing a voluminous crust.

Though the technique is contemporary, the menu re mains grounded in tradition, most notably with its sig nature Margherita pizza. First created in Naples in 1889 to honor Queen Margherita of Savoy, the dish famously reflectsthe colors of the Italian flag:red tomatoes, white mozzarella, fiordi latte, and fresh green basil. From there, the menu expands into bolder territory with selections like the Tutto Carne, layered with pepperoni, sausage, and soppressata; the Diavola, finishedwith Calabrian chili; and the Boscaiola, topped with mushrooms and sausage.

At Acquario, this respect for simplicity serves as the foundation for more specialized creations, particularly the Mediterranean Pizza — a signature offering that uses the fermented base as a canvas for ingredients such as to mato, oregano, garlic, and extra virgin olive oil.

That same commitment to craftsmanship extends to the house made fresh pastas, which are prepared with the same reverence as the pizza dough. The result is a din ing experience that is both traditional and elevated, yet remains warm and approachable for the community. By focusing on pure ingredients and the patience required for proper fermentation, Acquario brings a specific timehonored Mediterranean tradition directly to the local area.

Landmark Coffee Pumps Out Perfect Espresso

On Grapevine’s Main Street where nostalgia is part of the allure, Landmark Coffee feels entirely at home. Housed in side a lovingly restored historic gas station, once home to Bull Lion Winery, the café honors its past with subtle rever ence. There’s a replica vintage pump, the preserved canopy and, parked out front, a vintage Rolls Royce that feels less like décor and more like mise en scène.

This newcomer to Main Street has the soul of an art house café: genuinely cool, and maybe a little performative, but in a sincere way. The interior is minimal – a couple of small tables and a handful of counter seats. But the heart of Landmark lives outside. Beneath the restored pump can opy, a generous patio unfolds, offering ample seating and enough shade to make al fresco coffee entirely viable, even on a Texas summer day.

But it’s coffee where Landmark really excels. Espresso arrives with a glass of water, European style – a small but telling gesture. The simple, yet easy to mess up cortado is a standout: balanced, velvety and precisely extracted, strong enough to wake the palate without overwhelming it. The Landmark Signature latte layers brown sugar, vanilla and cinnamon into something comfortingly nostalgic. For warm er afternoons, the Cold Cream Cold Brew is energizing and finisheswith a cloudlike softness.

Beyond espresso, ceremonial matcha, chai, and refresh ing iced teas round out the beverage offerings. Fresh pas tries, like apple turnovers, blueberry scones, chocolate crois sants, and gluten-free coffee cake, tempt from the counter, alongside the requisite breakfast tacos, including a Texas Wagyu version that will definiely brighten your morning.

And then there’s the bagel speakeasy.

On select mornings, guests place their order via a vin tage phone hidden in the trunk of that Rolls Royce before receiving a text directing them to a discreet side entrance. The reward: bagels from Dallas cult favorite Shug’s, served until they sell out. It’s clever, slightly clandestine and undeni ably fun for those in the know and those who keep an eye on their Instagram for dates.
