CO N N E C T YO U R Interior Design with Better Sleep

Interior design sets the tone, mood, and ambiance of a room. And, there’s no room where that’s more important than one with such a specific purpose as the bedroom. The quality and length of your sleep cycle can be heavily influenced by everything from the light location and levels to the wall color and artwork. Sleep success has psychological roots that interior design can either help or hinder. Making that connection between design and purpose can help you get the full seven to nine hours of sleep you need every night. And we’ve got some tips to help.

SLEEP-ENHANCING COLOR PALETTE

Cool neutrals—the grays, whites, and pastel blues and greens—don’t overstimulate the eyes and calm the mind and body. They’re a favorite in the bedroom because of their psychological impact.

ONBOARD NATURE The barrier between the natural world and living spaces continues to thin. Time spent in nature reduces stress and anxiety, which nature-inspired design can also do. There are obvious choices like artwork that directly depicts nature in the form of landscapes, photographs, and sculptures. But, nature can enter the room through more creative and subtle means as well.

Lamps, rugs, pillows with floral motifs, or organic design elements with shapes and colors of nature can relax the mind and body too. Natural fabrics like cotton and linen with their soft textures and earthy vibe simulate the calm of a nature walk.

Natural elements don’t have to be soft or visually soothing to benefit sleep. Brick, stone, sand, and houseplants can be beneficial too. They also open the door for self-expression and a unique take on what it means to blend the indoors with the out.

FOCUS ON THE BED As the largest piece of furniture in the bedroom, the bed is often, though not always, the focal point. It should also be the most inviting space.

Soft textures, luxurious pillows in all sizes, and throws that add dimension create a bed that’s hard to exist. The design should also have the practical in mind. Yes, extra pillows make you want to jump on the bed, but make sure there are enough functional pillows that you can keep your spine aligned while you sleep.

Author Bio: Samantha Kent is a researcher for SleepHelp.org.

Her favorite writing topic is how getting enough sleep can improve your life. Currently residing in Boise, Idaho, she sleeps in a California King bed, often with a cat on her face.

However, when choosing a color palette, you also have to take into account your personal, ethnic, and cultural experiences and preferences. Any color with which you have a negative connotation could potentially affect your ability to fall asleep. A color, with which you associate peace and calm even if it’s bright red, could benefit you. The key is to create a palette that reduces stress and calms your mind and body.

CONTROL NATURAL LIGHT Nature in the bedroom is a good thing.

However, there are certain aspects that need to be carefully monitored and controlled because of the way they affect the sleep cycle. Natural light, for example, can suppress sleep hormones. Whether it’s sunlight from an early summer morning or moonlight in the winter, natural light is absorbed by the eyes and sent directly to the circadian region of the brain where it triggers the “awake” signal.

Bedrooms with a wall of windows need sufficient window coverings to block out all light at night.

Artificial light needs just as much consideration. Any task lighting should point away from or be diffused as it nears the bed. Dimmer switches are a simple way to provide ambient light control as bedtime grows near.

Good bedroom design balances beauty with practicality. Walking into your bedroom should feel like a release from stress and pressure. Design that makes you feel like you’ve stepped out of the world into your personal retreat is one that will support your sleep for years to come.

CULTURE

Dallas’ Transition into the International Art Scene Dallas is quickly evolving into one of the top major U.S. cities that serves as a hub for international artists and collectors alike.

H AV E N L I F E ST Y L E S .CO M

PHOTOGRAPHY BY VALERIE CHIANG

Dallas is now home to some of the most famous art collections in the world. Individuals who have played a key role in putting Dallas on the international art scene include Howard Rachofsky, Deedie and Rusty Rose, and Marguerite Hoffman.

Howard Rachofsky is someone who’s had a significant impact in elevating Dallas’ art and cultural presence.

Over the past 40 years, Rachofsky has built an impressive collection of artwork - accumulating about 800 pieces that span several movements.

For years, when Dallas art patrons were keeping their impressive works hidden in their

By Lauren Cornman grand estates, Rachofsky decided to completely change the rules by bringing residents into his home to view his artwork, according to an interview he did with Artsy.

Anyone from school children to adults was invited into his translucent glass home to absorb the cultural history.

Later on, he established The Warehouse, which opened in 2012.

While Dallas art collection has grown significantly over the past few years, so have the number of galas and events honoring the fine art community.

John Runyan, a respected post-war art adviser says the difference is tangible. He says, “The best gauge for me is when you go to Art Basel and they are talking about Dallas.”

In the 1980s when he first began collecting artwork, he went from buying famous brandname pieces from artists like Picasso, Matisse, and Degas - to working with an art dealer in NYC to collect art from contemporary galleries.

In 1999, Rachofsky invited some of the town’s wealthiest patrons into his home for a charity auction called Two by Two. The first charity raised $100,000 and since then, has been a success in raising $75 million for The Foundation for AIDS Research (amFAR) and the Dallas Museum of Art (DMA).

D Magazine reports that “a large number of top-notch museums and exhibition venues and active, ultra-affluent collectors have put Dallas on the international art map.”

While the number of art collectors grows, experts emphasize “what’s missing is the community of local artists and dealers that would help make Dallas a truly global, art powerhouse.”

It’s also credited with turning several Dallas residents into full-fledged patrons of the arts.

“Dallas is one of the largest and most sophisticated collector markets in the world, and most people do not even realize it,” says Scott A. Barnes. CEO, founder, and chairman of ArtBanc, a local firm that offers global collection management and sales services.

As part of Dallas’ massive growth in the art community, the Dallas Art Fair is now entrenched in the Dallas community and will be welcoming its 11th annual art show in April.

Fort Worth is experiencing a creative boom led by DIY spaces like fwblackhouse, Art Tooth, Latino Hustle, Art Luck, and Mananaland.

These art gallery spaces are only a few out of over thirty new spaces that have opened across the Dallas Fort Worth area.

With each year, the audience response is better with an influx of galleries and international artists and companies bringing their work into Dallas.

A few major institutions that have opened include The Goss-Michael Foundation, The Power-Station, Dallas Contemporary, and the Nasher Sculpture Center.

Two benefit galas that have had continuous success year over year are MTV Re: Define and the Dallas Museum of Art’s ART BALL.

TOP AGENT Q&A

Q&A: Top Dallas Realtor

RoseMarie LaCoursiere We heard from one of Dallas’ top realtors, RoseMarie LaCoursiere of ENGEL & VÖLKERS, about the typical buyer for the area, her outlook on the current market, and much more!

↔

What is your outlook on the current housing market There really isn’t a typical buyer per se, in that our pricing bands and neighborhoods span in Dallas? many different mindsets and lifestyles. Motivation drives results for buyers more than Dallas remains a normalizing marketplace with our anything else. By motivation, I mean being ready for having been pre-qualified or even luxury market fully transitioned into a buyer’s market. It better pre-approved, and have a particular month in mind they want and may need to close may surprise your readership to know October’s MLS on a home purchase. This ‘goal month’ can be lead by having a current home listed in the data reports there is 15 months of inventory for homes marketplace with an anticipated period it will take to sell, or a lease term a few months out, priced $4,000,000 to $4,999,999 while there is a 13.14 or perhaps their motivation is driven by an upcoming start date to a new job or a transfer month inventory of homes priced between $2,000,000 into Dallas. Some may say the typical buyer is savvy, and while that is true given the apps and $2,999,999 with 92 properties active for sale and available, and popular reality tv or real estate themed shows, when prospective buyers only 7 closed in the month of October. Whereas for are bitten by the bug, they may appear to be well versed, yet the reality is they are more properties priced between $600,000 and $1,000,000 informed than ever before though needing proper guidance of a real estate professional to inventories range from a 6.31 months supply to 8.33 protect their fiduciary interest. The number one mistake buyers in general make is they say months supply. In a normal marketplace, there is too much, too soon to every agent they meet at open houses, or who show them properties a 5 month inventory of homes, meaning it takes an without a buyer representation agreement. They rarely ever know that every agent out there average of 5 months to sell a home + 1 month to close. is a sub-agent to every listed property whether it is their broker’s listing or not until the buyer This is one reason why most listing agreements are asks themselves ‘WHO represents me/us and my/our fiduciary interest’. At a minimum, they for 6 months. More and more listing agreements would need to have an implied buyer representation agreement with a licensed real estate are for longer periods taking into account the sales professional. Regretfully many agents sidestep the importance of explaining the different cycle at hand to successfully represent sellers. When agency relationships with new prospective buyers out of concern they may scare them the Dallas marketplace was hot with multiple offers away. That in and of itself is a disservice to consumers. When you have representation as a received in the first hours and day(s) of a new listing, buyer, ethically agents are not permitted to ask a prospective buyer questions. Buyers can Dallas ranked in the top 5 hottest marketplaces in the ask questions however, and that is very much walking into a wolf’s den because it is every US for volume of sales. For the longest time, it was listing agent, and sub agent’s job to look out for the seller’s fiduciary screening San Francisco, Dallas and Miami jockeying the top potential buyers and through conversations, as innocent as they may running. As with all cycles, booms and growth appear, an interested buyer excited about a property most always says many major cities have enjoyed as a result too much attempting to position themselves as the perfect buyer or of a strengthening economy, there’s a strong buyer and inadvertently affect eventual negotiations strengths normalizing period. While I don’t have for having shared too much with ‘the other side’ unknowingly. a crystal ball, I’m of the mindset that Dallas will remain in a normalizing I will say buyers in today’s market have very high expectations overall period a good 12-18 months more and and have different definitions of luxury. In the luxury market, it isn’t this applies to our luxury market. We uncommon for a property to sell a few to several hundreds of thousands simply have a great supply of luxury of dollars below tax assessed values, some even a few million below. Luxury homes, that reflects a highly successful buyers have tremendous choice for the number of properties available. life and business environment. Homeowners Regardless of what in the ceiling of a buyer’s budget, they will consider homes always take a while to understand the well above their ceiling knowing that in finding the property poised to sell impact of cycles on their homes and how a for being perhaps vacant, with the seller(s) motivation growing to get their hot market enjoyed over a period of years property sold, there is formidable real estate to be made theirs in working will affect property values and property closely with their chosen real estate advisor. taxes accordingly.

How would you describe the typical buyer profile in Dallas?

For someone looking into the area for the first time, what are a couple of your favorite restaurants and things to do in the neighborhood?

I am a Foodie and always say, if you were to dine in a new restaurant nightly, you’d have a new favorite every evening and not make it to every great restaurant we treasure. My favorite is a hidden gem, tucked away in Highland Park Village, it is Fachini, you’d need to know the staircase to this 2nd level find is directly next to the movie theater bracing an old brick wall leading to a posh ambiance and great open air terrace above the entrance to the movie theater. A close second is Bistro 31, and Al Biernats. The Dallas Arboretum is a must to walk during holidays and taking in summer concerts there as well. CultureMap Dallas is a great source to keep you busy as well to be in the know of all we have going on every week, every weekend.
