Bathroom organization styles that work smarter — not harder Organization is the key to a successful space saving bathroom Brandpoint

Hairdryers, toothbrushes, combs, hair brushes and picks. Shaving utensils, makeup, styling products and perfumes. The collection of grooming and beauty tools cluttering the bathroom vanity can quickly overwhelm everything, making the space unusable for guests and creating difficulty in finding the tools you need.

The bathroom should be a functional room that works for you. It’s where you start and end your day, so you want

the space to give you energy and focus, not throw you off your routine because you can’t find what you need.

This is the perfect time of year to get organized, so why not start in the bathroom?

The first step is to consider the entire room space. Does the vanity, mirror or shelving unit provide the storage space and accessibility you need for all your grooming items? If not, it may be time to personalize your bathroom space to accommodate everyone who uses the room. Here are some ways to create a personalized and stylish bathroom: • Separate grooming areas — If you share a bathroom with someone who rises at the same time as you in the morning, it can quickly get congested in the room.

Choosing a vanity with two sinks and related storage

space is one solution to create better space and prevent grooming tools from getting mixed up or lost.

• The right fit — When incorporating a new vanity into your bath, it’s often difficult to find the right fit in size, style and functionality. You want a vanity that holds all the extra supplies needed in the bathroom — extra shampoo, clean towels, toilet paper and tissues — so they’re available for residents and guests alike. Plus you want something that matches the decor you already have in the room. Kohler’s Tailored Vanity Collection provides several size options, configurations and wood finishes as well as top materials in a variety of shapes and colors to perfectly blend into your bathroom style.

• Smart storage — Drawers and shelves in the vanity provide a great way to keep all your grooming tools within reach, and they can still be hidden away so guests can use the bathroom without seeing all of your clutter.

Kohler’s Tailored Vanity Collection allows you to customize the look and use of your vanity, making it fit with your unique style. You can design the storage space with trays and dividers to best work for you. This also applies to the adjustable shelves, roll-out drawers and optional built-in electric outlets for the interior.

Organization can be the key to a successful day. With all of these storage options in your bathroom, you’ll be able Brandpoint to find the grooming tool you need when you need it, so you Organization is the key to space in the bathcan start the day off right. room.

Designer tips to create inspired dream spaces with color Brandpoint Ready to transform your home this year? The key to creating your dream interior space could be as simple as updating with color.

Seven-in-10 homeowners plan a house-related project in the next six months, according to the Sherwin-Williams National Home Design and Color Survey. Of those homeowners planning house projects, painting tops the list with 42 percent wanting to liven up their space with color, followed by landscaping (39 percent) and redecorating (30 percent).

Adding color with paint makes sense to internationally celebrated interior designer Jeff Andrews, who has decorated the homes of celebrities from Ryan

Paint can add color to any room.

“Paint can incorporate distinctive touches that will liven any living space.

Everyone has the potential

to live in his or her dream space, and a touch of color can easily make it a reality,” Andrews says.

dinary. For stunning color for years to come, SherwinWilliams Emerald Interior paint offers paint and primer in one, with advanced stain-blocking technology, ensuring a statement color that’s easy to maintain and perfect for any room in your home.

• Highlight accent pieces with vivid color to bring a room alive: A distinctive color adds a layer of visual elegance to any room.

Painting an accent wall, trim, crown moldings or a ceiling in a color that complements the walls can give a room a customized look.

• Channel your inner designer: From stripes to geometric designs, infuse vibrant energy to a room with an on-trend painted pattern.

• Create curb appeal with

a bold use of color: To help your home make its best first impression, make over the exterior of your home with a bold color. Among homeowners surveyed, almost two-thirds (64 percent) are confident handling outdoor painting projects.

Consider coordinating your palettes from the inside out by painting your front door a few shades darker than the entryway.

• Transform the ordinary: A fresh coat of paint can elevate a simple piece of furniture and provide a distinctive look. According to the survey, nearly twoin-three homeowners (64 percent) want to add more color into their home. Pick a favorite desk or nightstand and use color to create a signature focal point in a room.

Save green indoors and out with energy-efficient upgrades Brandpoint Spring is the perfect time to think green. For some it’s spurred by the coming of Earth Day, others the renewed greening of our lawns. And many are motivated by the desire to save a little green in their wallets with a fresh new season of home repairs. If you’re one of these people, you can help save some green for the planet, as well as your hardearned cash, by making energy efficient upgrades throughout your home.

Helping the world stay green gained traction with the first Earth Day held March 22, 1970, as declared

by Senator Gaylord Nelson of Wisconsin. As a nation,

much has been accomplished with the environmental movement, yet there are also easy things you can do at home to “go green” and save money at the same time. Here are some tips for home energy efficiency upgrades indoors and out.

• Cool efficiently: When it comes to home energy bills, heating and cooling accounts for as much as half of the average home’s utility costs, according to energy. gov. Get ready for the hottest days of summer by tuning up your heating, ventilating and air conditioning system so it’s operating efficiently.

Change your HVAC filters regularly. In addition, if your cooling system is more than 10 years old, consider re-

placing it with one that has a Seasonal Efficiency Ratio (SEER) of 20.00 for better savings. Trane’s XL20i, for example, can mean a savings of up to 60 percent on your annual cooling costs — that’s cool cash in your pocket.

• Programmable temperature controls: A programmable HVAC control can reduce energy consumption by up to 15 percent compared to traditional nonprogrammable thermostats.

• Conserve water: Remember, water isn’t free.

Indoors, lower water bills by installing low-flow water fixtures including toilets, showerheads and faucets.

Outdoors, add a water-saving spigot for the garden

hose. To avoid water evaporation, water your plants early or late in the day, and when your green lawn starts to grow, don’t mow too low.

If you have lawn sprinklers, double check that they are set to water grass and shrubbery instead of the driveway or sidewalk.

• Lighting: About 10 percent of the energy your home uses goes to lighting costs, according to energy. gov — in fact, by just replacing five of your home’s most frequently used lights with energy efficient Enery Star bulbs. Compared with traditional incandescent bulbs, compact fluorescents can yield as much as 75 percent Brandpoint energy savings and last six Go green with heating and cooling upgrades. times longer.

Provide your garden with the proper nutrients to keep it healthy and green.

Bringing life back into your yard and garden Get your grass and garden growing again Brandpoint

Spring season is a time of regeneration and renewal as you prepare to bring life back to your lawn and garden. Taking the proper steps after seasonal changes or severe weather conditions can prove to be the difference between creating a breathtaking landscape or an outdoor space with unsightly mishaps. By following a few simple steps, you can take pride in your backyard year after year.

Inspect and replace your tools of the trade

damage or rust. Making sure that your garden tools are in good condition at the start of the season will help establish the right foundation for a successful planting and growing season.

“The right tools can make all the difference in creating a lawn that leaves a lasting impression,” says Alan Luxmore, host of A&E’s hit television show Fix This Yard.

“Arm yourself with tools that are not only durable, but easy to use. Complete watering systems such as LeakFree by Nelson, offer a turn-key watering experience from start to finish, allowing gardeners more time to revel in their landscaping successes.”

an outdoor masterpiece begins with the proper equipment. You can’t very well dig, rake or mow with broken or dull materials, so now is the time to inspect each of your tools. Check your lawnmower and other garden essentials for signs of

Once your soil is permeable, it should be prepped for the upcoming planting season by removing dead leaves and plants that may have been left over from the previous season. Use a rotary tiller to break up and aerate hard soil. Once the

old material has been removed from the work area and your soil is ready, begin planting your new plants, flowers, vegetables and grass. You can also help your trees, bushes and even certain plants have a more robust look by trimming them back to encourage new bud growth.

Establish a regular watering regimen

One of the most important steps to maintaining a healthy lawn and garden is providing it with the proper nutrients. Using a hose for daily irrigation seems simple but without the proper watering set up, your efforts could be futile. A proper watering guide and the following tips from the watering experts at Nelson can increase efficiency and bring you one step closer to creating a yard with envious curb appeal.

Turn your drab deck into an outdoor oasis Brandpoint Warm weather means more time to spend outside enjoying gentle breezes and sunshine-filled days. Is your deck or patio ready for months of outdoor fun? If your outdoor space is a bit drab, there’s no need to fret.

The year’s top trends in outdoor living will transform any deck in an instant and create a space that is truly an extension of the home.

“Homeowners are demanding expanded livable spaces and are looking for fresh ways to update their decks and patios for premium enjoyment,” says Madeleine MacRae, exterior market manager for Somfy Systems, maker of motors and controls for shades, screens and awnings. “The good news is that an existing space can easily be transformed into an outdoor oasis with minimal effort and financial investment.” MacRae offers top outdoor living trends that will instantly transform your deck into a beautiful, relaxing oasis:

In addition to couches and chairs, incorporating an eating area makes dining al fresco a joy any time of day.

Naturally aligning with homeowners’ desire to create functional space both indoors and out, the demand for outdoor kitchens is growing. Whether it’s a corner with a grill or a full kitchen with refrigerator, prep sink and all, incorporating a space on your deck for cooking food is a top trend. Whether you’re slow-grilling a turkey for an intimate family dinner or flipping burgers for a neighborhood cookout, outdoor kitchens will serve you well time and time again.

Insects, with the possible exception of the water bug, aren’t terribly fond of water.

Top spring home decor trends add style and personality Brandpoint

Spring is in the air, which means it’s time to refresh your indoor spaces to reflect the energy and optimism of the season. The top home decor trends of spring 2014 take a fresh approach to traditional design elements to create an aesthetic that is fresh and full of life. Best yet, the trends are easily accessible, so anyone can update their space with a few simple tips.

Carpet

More homeowners are seeking the beauty, comfort and safety that carpet provides, making it a top flooring trend for spring 2014 and beyond. What types of carpet are popular?

“New soft fibers,” says Vickie Gilstrap, director of design services for The Dixie Group, a top U.S. carpet manufacturer. “Consumers went away from wallto-wall carpet, as hard surface flooring gained in popularity. Then, people began to miss the softness and warmth of carpet. Carpet absorbs sound, making homes quieter, and traps dust at the base of the carpet fibers so that dust doesn’t circulate in the room air. The soft fibers give us a reason to put carpet down again.”

She is also seeing increased interest in “mixedmedia” carpet styles — with hi-lustre and low-lustre yarns used in the same carpet. Additionally, patterns are being featured on top of texture, giving a multi-di-

mensional appearance to flooring.

Not only stylish, carpet is healthy, too. People with allergies or other sensitivities can choose carpet as a way to improve indoor air quality.

If big and bold patterns aren’t your taste, consider sticking to small, neutral patterns that can be a subtle way to add visual interest and design complexity to interior spaces.

Color

Lighting plays an important two-pronged role: it makes a space functional and also helps define its design aesthetic. Adjusting the task lighting within a room can instantly make the space more livable and highlight the design mo- Carpet is making a comeback in 2014. tif. Another easy lighting update is purchasing new lamps or simply adding new shades to existing lamps — a great way to refresh a space with minimal cost.

Keep in mind, when selecting fixtures, there’s no longer a need to avoid gold tones. “Gold is coming back— we are seeing more gold and copper and less silver,” says Gilstrap.

Want to really redefine your home’s lighting? Ornamental lighting is big this year with designers thinking outside the box when it comes to how and where these fixtures can be used. For example, dramatic chandeliers are no longer reserved for formal spaces such as the dining room or foyer. This spring, you can add a touch of elegance to any space by adding a stylish chandelier, plus it doesn’t take up much design real estate space. Bedrooms, basements and bars Building Carlisle’s finest custom homes, are just a few unique areas where chandeliers can be featuring quality Andersen® products. featured.

Thoughtful use of color in home design is a top trend for 2014. “Colors are getting warmer,” notes Gilstrap. “Taupe is the bridge color taking us from gray to browner tones. Warm pinks are returning, as well as warmer greens like moss and olive — even apple.”

Keep in mind adding personality to a space through use of warm color doesn’t necessarily require a complete interior overhaul.

Consider incorporating spring colors using accent pieces. It’s easy to switch up pillows, throws or artwork without investing a lot of time or money. Plus it’s a fun way to update the personality of your favorite spaces every season.

Texture and pattern This spring, more homeowners are using textures and patterns to make a visual statement through design. Strategic use of texture and patterns can highlight certain interior spaces, manipulate the light within the room and influence scale.

Blending both adds visual interest and helps homeowners create a unique space to call their own.

“Layering of pattern and texture — in floors, walls, upholstery, window treatments — gives a more individualized feel,” says Gilstrap.

Glass House hosts ‘Veil,’ a poem in fog and glass

By Katherine Roth Associated Press

NEW CANAAN, Conn.

— The Glass House, architect Philip Johnson’s iconic Modernist structure set in the woods here, has been wrapped in a poetic fog

by Japanese artist Fujiko Nakaya, a sort of Christo of mist.

Like the glass structure itself, Nakaya’s “Veil” installation plays on the transparent and opaque, the permanent and ephemeral.

“I’m making an invisible natural phenomenon visible,” explained the Tokyobased artist. “Usually, you ignore all the dynamics in the air. People go around the world to view an eclipse so they can experience a natural phenomenon that usually can’t be seen. But you don’t have to go that far.”

Dense fog gushes forth from 600 specially designed nozzles around the Glass House for around 10 minutes at a time. Using meteorological studies of the site, Nakaya carefully timed and calibrated the nozzles to maximize the visual effects of wind, humidity and air pressure.

For about half an hour, the thick mist dances gently around and over the house, sometimes enveloping it completely. At times,

Associated Press

The Glass House shows artist Fujiko Nakaya’s first fog installation on the East Coast in 30 years, which can be viewed from inside or outside the Modernist Glass House it surrounds. the mist cascades into the wooded valley below, and at times it floats up toward the hillside above, making parts of the house and landscape briefly disappear while usually invisible atmospheric forces come into focus.

“Johnson’s interest in the balance of opposites is evident throughout the Glass House campus. With Nakaya’s temporary installation, we carry this sensibility to

its endpoint while allowing the unique magic of the Glass House — the dream of transparency, an architecture that vanishes — to return again and again as the fog rises and falls,” said Glass House director Henry Urbach.

The installation, about an hour’s train ride north of New York City, is open to the public from May 1 to November 30. It is part of a

larger effort by Urbach, who was architecture curator at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art before taking the helm of the Glass House in 2012, to foster new interpretations of the historic site.

Johnson’s home in New Canaan, a village including almost 100 important Modernist structures, was a center of art and architecture, particularly during the ‘50s

and ‘60s. Built in 1949, the Glass House was home to Johnson and his partner, art dealer David Whitney, until 2005.

Johnson was the first curator of the Museum of Modern Art’s architecture department, and a friend and associate of Alfred Barr, the founding director of MoMA. Cutting-edge artworks and architectural concepts were often debuted at the Glass House before being exhibited in Manhattan.

“Veil” is Nakaya’s first major work on the East Coast.

From inside the silent sleekness of the Glass House, being enveloped by undulating fog feels at times like being inside a sort of three-dimensional time-lapse movie. From outside the house, or from the hillsides below or above the structure, the impact of the installation is completely different, and it’s ever flowing and changing depending on the weather.

“I look for the very best stage for the fog to perform. Then it’s at the mercy of the wind,” explained Nakaya, whose fat h e r, U k i c h i ro Nakaya, was a physicist credited with making the first artificial snowflakes.

She started out painting clouds before experimenting with fog.

“I wanted only water, no

chemicals, and a nozzle that could make extremely tiny droplets,” she said. After extensive research, she found a California cloud scientist, Thomas Mee, trying to produce fog to help protect crops from early frost. Although she said the chemical-free fog nozzle system proved too expensive for agricultural use, Nakaya has been using a version of it for decades to produce her fogscapes.

Her first fog installation was in 1970 at the Osaka World Expo, where she enveloped the Pepsi Pavilion in dense fog in collaboration with the avant-garde artists’ collaborative Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T.), founded by artist Robert Rauschenberg and Bell Labs engineer Billy Kluver.

Nakaya’s over 50 fog installations have appeared at the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, emerged from fountains at the Grand Palais in Paris and cascaded from bridges around the world.

She has collaborated with Rauschenberg and other artists on dramatic fog performances and stage sets.

Her only previous fogscape in the New York area was much smaller, at Johnson’s apartment in lower Manhattan in 1980. She also showed a fog sculpture in Washington, D.C., 30 years ago, she said.

Personalize your backyard with a concrete path A stone path is a great way to decorate your backyard and add wow factor Brandpoint

Paths provide the practical purpose of connecting two or more locations but a well-made walkway that will stand up for years can enrich the natural landscape of a backyard and complement the exterior look of a home.

While traditionally popular materials for creating paths, like brick and stone, are attractive and durable, they can be expensive and challenging to install. An easy and affordable alterna-

tive is to build a path yourself using a plastic form and pre-mixed packaged concrete.

Taking this approach not only minimizes cost, time and headache, the preference and personal taste of each individual homeowner dictates the color, style and movement in the finished concrete path.

It starts with selecting the style of path, which can range from a natural looking country stone pattern to a more standard running bond brick pattern.

The QUIKRETE Walkmaker forms are 2 foot by 2 foot and conveniently hold one 80-pound bag of concrete, so homeowners can work on the path at their own pace by following these simple directions.
