HOME

START WITH AN ENERGY AUDIT All green renovation should start with an energy audit to ensure the projects you want to do are right for your home. A certified energy auditor can identify your home’s exact needs, setting a baseline for what needs to be done, and can expose what options may exist to gain government grants.

START SMALL Great things often come in small packages, and sustainability in the home doesn’t have to be expensive or a huge undertaking. Major renovations often aren’t necessary to increase energy efficiency; smaller projects like air sealing offer an easy, high-impact and costeffective option with great results.

SUSTAINABLE RENOVATIONS TOP TIPS TO MAKE YOUR HOME ECO-FRIENDLY

AS CANADIANS PREPARE FOR RENOVATION SEASON, IT’S THE PERFECT TIME TO CONSIDER HOW TO MAKE YOUR HOME SUSTAINABLE AND ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY WHILE STILL LOOKING GREAT. Whether inside or outside the home, Canadians are ready to make changes to their living spaces. But why not make a change for the environment too?

While some renovations can be harmful to the environment, sustainable renovations are done to increase home efficiency and ensure minimal environmental impact, all while still remaining cost effective for homeowners. Taking into account energy use, materials and their impacts and how the home works as a system can ensure that any green renovation is as efficient and ecofriendly as possible.

10

Ahead of his appearance onstage at this year’s National Home Show, Christopher Phillips, Founder of green renovations firm Greening Homes, shares a list of things to consider when undergoing a sustainable renovation to make your home healthy, energy efficient and beautiful.

HERE ARE FIVE TIPS FOR GREEN RENOVATIONS TO CONSIDER TO ENSURE YOU’RE PLANTING THE SEEDS FOR SUCCESS:

LOOK AT THE HOUSE AS A SYSTEM What affects one area of a house can affect another—improved insulation and sealing can create indoor air quality issues by preventing proper ventilation if airflow isn’t considered. Considering the house as a system optimises green renovations and prevents problems in other areas.

BEWARE OF EMBODIED CARBON New materials are often cost-effective, but awful for the environment. Upgrades containing embodied carbon can create issues in the years to come, especially if you’re aiming to create a net-zero carbon emission home. Opt for natural materials to keep your home green long-term.

TAKE A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO GREEN Though often synonymous, green renovations don’t just refer to energy-efficiency. Taking into account the five pillars of sustainability— responsible waste management, careful material selection, efficient design, ensuring indoor air quality and smart transportation— ensures that all elements of your renovation are sustainable, creating a 360-degree package that you can feel great about.

Hear more green renovation tips from Phillips at this year’s National Home Show, happening April 15 - 24, 2022 at Toronto’s Enercare Centre. Get tips and tricks from leading industry professionals about the best ways for you to undergo your own green renovations.

LAKE FRONT LUXURY

BY DESIGN

By Diana Rose Design | Photography by Mike Chajecki

CHOOSING A COLOUR PALETTE CAN BE A CHALLENGING PART OF THE INTERIOR DECORATING PROCESS, WITH SO MUCH CHOICE AND NOT ALWAYS A CLEAR VISION OF WHERE TO START. IF YOU FIND YOURSELF AMONG THE LOST, JUST LOOK AROUND AND YOU’LL FIND THAT INSPIRATION IS ALL AROUND YOU. FOR THIS BRANDNEW, CUSTOM-BUILD HOME, ALL I HAD TO DO WAS LOOK OUT THE WINDOW FOR MY COLOUR CUES. I wasn’t the only one drawn by the view. The lakefront community also attracted the homeowners and my clients, a family of three and their little pup. They were clearly enamoured by the water outside, so I decided to invite and let it influence the colour palette .

The 3,800-sq.-ft. home features five bedrooms, six bathrooms and a stunning main living area, with a modern clean aesthetic with an eye to the breathtaking view of the lake. The three-storey layout was designed to maximize the seasonal beloved views, with an open-to-above main living area and large windows that flood the upper and lower levels with natural light and scenery.

We also used the home’s strong vertical configuration to put our chosen colour palette into deeper context (pun intended).

Our hues were not just inspired

by the ocean’s colours, but by its layers as well. Thus, we visually organized our colour scheme in tiers to match. The bright “sunlit” level boasts lighter hues in areas like the kitchen, dining and living room. As you move into the more-intimate family lounge and bedrooms, you can feel a distinct change into what can be described as a darker, more cocoon-like look and feel.

The main feature wall became another focal point, secondary to the view. It spans the home’s three levels, and was finished in a silver/gray wallpaper boasting an organic pattern that mimics large ocean waves. This feature wall is commonly visible across each of the home’s levels, creating a sense of continuity throughout.

To balance the blue tones and complete our oceaninspired aesthetic, we incorporated black, silver, green and sand-coloured accents. The staircase accent wall is painted in dark metallic hue, adding a nice dose of drama. Never overlook the accessories.

Here nature-inspired accents, such as driftwood,

green plants, and a cluster of marble coffee tables that echo the look of seashells, served to bring my aquatic motif to life.

TIP: You can create a feature wall in any size of room, by following a few tips. When choosing your wall, consider where the eye is drawn to when you first enter the room.

This is where to focus your attention—and if all goes well, everyone else’s, too. Consider a bold colour contrast, in the form of paint or a really great wallpaper or apply custom mouldings. Be bold and push the boundaries. Remember, the goal is to make it stand out. If you get tired of it eventually of have second thoughts, it’s a relatively small area to change in the future. Angle a furniture grouping to face it, acting as a conversation-starter. As a final step, ensure your feature wall is well-lit.

When designing this home’s interior, I found myself continually looking outward for cues on colour, texture and esthetic. And with a stunning view like this, which served as an equally strong inspiration, I found that I had plenty to work with. The result is a modern family retreat with a style as cool and fresh as an ocean breeze. ◆

MOEN LAUNCHES NEW

NEBIA™BY MOEN QUATTRO

showerheads

MOEN AND NEBIA TAKE SHOWERING TECHNOLOGY TO THE NEXT LEVEL BY ENHANCING SHOWER EXPERIENCES FOR ALL WHILE PROTECTING WATER

Feel good while doing good. That’s the promise behind two new showerhead products: the new Nebia by Moen™ Quattro Rainshower and Nebia by Moen™ Quattro Handshower showerheads, each of which features the latest innovation from Moen and Silicon Valley-based startup, Nebia. Both the rainshower and handshower products feature a unique design that allows you to save water without sacrificing experience by providing the perfect shower options to suit all of your needs, while still using up to 50%** less water than a standard showerhead.

The Nebia by Moen Quattro products each offer four distinct showers all in a single showerhead – individually designed to relieve, soothe, clarify and cleanse unlike ever before. Now, everyone in your home can dial in the perfect shower to meet their preferences.

The unique showers provided by Nebia by Moen Quattro products include: Relieve: a restorative shower to provide relief after a long day Soothe: a relaxing, peaceful and soothing shower

NEBIA BY MOEN SHOWERHEADS ARE METICULOUSLY ENGINEERED FOR OPTIMAL WARMTH, RINSING AND BODY COVERAGE. WHILE THE SHOWER USES NEARLY HALF THE WATER OF A TRADITIONAL SHOWERHEAD, IT PROVIDES UP TO 60%*** MORE FORCE FOR THE ULTIMATE EXPERIENCE. The handshower also features Moen’s Magnetix® technology for ease of use. The handshower’s dock is made from recycled ocean plastic and integrates a powerful magnet that allows for easy release of the handshower, as well as a secure return into place, even with your eyes closed.

The showerhead is installed with existing plumbing—simply unscrew the previous showerhead and replace.

“At Nebia, we are dedicated to designing products that feel great and save water,” said Gabriel Parisi-Amon, Nebia CEO and CoFounder. “After years of innovating nozzle technologies to improve performance and lower costs, we’re very excited to continue our partnership with Moen and introduce the most affordable Nebia shower yet. When you shower under Nebia by Moen Quattro, you automatically save water compared to standard showers**– but that is not why customers should choose Quattro. Choose it because it is a better shower. With Quattro, we continue progressing in our mission to provide a premium shower experience and the ability to make a positive impact on the environment more accessible.”

Cleanse: an enveloping shower that’s the perfect prep for the day

These products also feature Moen’s limited lifetime warranty**** to ensure superior quality.

“The Nebia by Moen Quattro Rainshower and Nebia by Moen Quattro Handshower showerheads both truly deliver on our Mission Moen pledge to

innovate, engineer and design for the water of tomorrow. By using up to 50% less water, every shower helps us get to our goal of saving one trillion gallons by 2030, and we’re taking it a step further by integrating recycled ocean plastic to design the handshower’s dock,” said Ryan Sterba, director of showering, Moen.

“Nebia by Moen embodies what the future of showering can look like; not only does it look beautiful and provide exceptional experiences, but it’s also built with sustainability in mind.”

RECIPE

FINGERLICKING GOOD

s b i R t r o h S

EATING HEALTHIER DOESN’T MEAN GIVING UP ON YOUR FAVOURITES — EVEN ONES YOU WOULD NEVER THINK COULD BE MADE INTO SOMETHING GOOD FOR YOU. Take this finger-licking-good recipe for Korean-style short ribs, which is low in sodium and could fit a kidney-friendly diet.

It’s made by chef Kris Gaudet for the Kidney Community Kitchen, a Kidney Foundation website that offers tasty recipes, tips and expert advice on how to make cooking fun again, even if you have restrictions in your diet.

If you’re looking to cut back on beef, you can substitute pork tavern ribs, pork side ribs or pork back ribs. Whatever meat you choose, serve with steamed jasmine or basmati rice and enjoy.

KOREAN-STYLE SHORT RIBS Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 10 minutes | Serves: 4

INGREDIENTS

DIRECTIONS

• 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce

STEP ONE: In large bowl, whisk together soy sauce, water, vinegars, sugar, Sriracha and pepper. Add onion, green onion and garlic. Stir to combine.

• 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar • 2 tbsp white vinegar • 2 tbsp granulated sugar • 1 tbsp Sriracha sauce • 1 tsp ground black pepper • ½ yellow onion, finely chopped • ½ bunch green onions, thinly sliced • 4-6 garlic cloves, finely chopped • 1 ½ lbs beef short ribs • ½ cup water

STEP T WO: Add short ribs to a resealable plastic bag and coat with marinade.

Remove as much air from bag as possible to get a tight seal. Let marinade for at least 12 hours; 24 hours would be preferable.

STEP THREE: Line a large baking sheet with foil. Remove ribs from marinade and remove onions and garlic left on ribs.

STEP FOUR: Wrap ribs in tinfoil and bake at 250°F for three hours. Unwrap and serve ◆ newscanada.com
