<p><strong>Considering home improvement projects but unsure if you should hire an expert?</strong></p>
<p><strong><br />
</strong>If so, read on for <strong>two home improvement projects you can DIY, and one home improvement that works best when you hire a contractor</strong>, and <strong>the average Return on Investment (ROI)</strong> for each of the projects listed <strong>presented by </strong><a href="https://tabassociates.com/"><strong>TAB Associates</strong></a><strong>.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Two home improvement projects you can DIY.</strong></p>
<p><em>A beautiful, fresh, green yard</em></p>
<p><strong>Is there anything better than a beautiful outdoor living space?</strong> One easy way to increase the value of your home and add a nice, relaxing outdoor living space is to freshen up your lawn. Freshening up your yard is relatively easy. You can do this project by ensuring your lawn gets the proper amount of nutrients and prevents weed growth.</p>
<p>While you can weed often and apply fertilizer during the proper seasons, that can be time and energy-consuming. So instead, <a href="https://www.bobvila.com/slideshow/watch-out-for-these-9-types-of-lawn-weeds-53460">Bob Vila</a> recommends using a weed-and-feed product to ensure your lawn is bright and weed-free.</p>
<p><strong>Weed-and-feed products: </strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Help your yard receive the nutrients it needs.</li>
<li>Can speed up growth.</li>
<li>Keep turf thick and healthy.</li>
<li>Reduce the number of weeds in your yard.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Pro tip:</strong> Not all yards need the same nutrient balance, but you can determine which nutrients your yard needs by conducting a soil test. You can pick up a test and do it yourself. However, <a href="https://www.pennington.com/all-products/grass-seed/resources/extension-agents-your-local-lawn-and-garden-resource">Pennington</a> recommends bringing a lawn sample to your county Cooperative Extension System (CES)- a group of lawn and garden experts who use research-based advances to ensure a fantastic lawn or garden.</p>
<p><strong>What is the ROI of freshening up your lawn?</strong></p>
<p>If you apply weed-and-feed products to your yard six times per year, as recommended by the <a href="https://www.nar.realtor/sites/default/files/reports/2016/2016-outdoors-remodeling-impact-report-09-27-2016.pdf">NAR</a>, the cost is around $114. In addition, you&#8217;ll boost your home value by around $1,000- an ROI of just over 777%!</p>
<p><em>Add outdoor lighting.</em></p>
<p><strong>Would you like to deter burglars and make your yard a magical place to relax at night?</strong> Adding motion lights or other outdoor lighting options to your yard can do the trick for $5,000 or less. This project can be done by following the directions on the lighting fixtures you choose, and you can customize the look to your preferences.</p>
<p><strong>What is the ROI of adding outdoor lighting?</strong></p>
<p>Even if you choose to invest $5,000, the <a href="https://www.nar.realtor/sites/default/files/documents/2018-05-remodeling-impact-outdoor-features-05-23-2018.pdf">NAR</a> says you could see an ROI of around 50%.</p>
<h2>One home improvement project that works best when you hire a contractor.</h2>
<p><em>High-quality fencing</em></p>
<p><strong>Do skunks or other pests sneak into your yard?</strong> If your property is in need of a fence, you&#8217;re best off connecting with a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/fence-companies/">local </a><a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/fence-companies/">fence</a><a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/fence-companies/"> company</a>. Before meeting with a fence contractor to get a quote and discuss your needs, you can evaluate companies by reading reviews online.</p>
<p>High-quality fencing raises the property value and ensures you avoid costly mistakes. But, of course, there&#8217;s nothing worse than building a fence yourself, and it falls down the next time the wind blows.</p>
<p>The one thing you must check on is whether your Home Owners Association allows fencing at all.  Some allow a limited amount and types of fences.  You should check on this prior to making an investment in any fencing.</p>
<p><strong>What is the ROI of adding a high-quality fence to a yard?</strong></p>
<p>You can increase your house&#8217;s value by $1,500, on the low end, up to as much as $5,000. Of course, the home value increase is dependent on the material and type of fence. For instance, with stone or metal fences, your ROI could be <a href="https://rehabfinancial.com/blog/house-flippers-guide-to-choosing-the-right-fence">as much as 70%</a><a href="https://rehabfinancial.com/blog/house-flippers-guide-to-choosing-the-right-fence">.</a> On the other hand, fences built with wood or other materials can still fetch an ROI of 50%. But isn&#8217;t keeping one skunk or other roaming pests out of your yard priceless?</p>
<p>Any one of these home improvement projects will freshen up the exterior of your home while providing a sense of comfort and a cozy, homelike feel. Plus, you can add value to your home- monetary and otherwise.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is the first post in a series about TAB Associates, Inc team members and current projects. I am Greg Macik managing principal of the Edwards office and have been with TAB Associates since day one and before. I met Tab in May of 1997 at a previous firm. When Tab decided to open TAB Associates in December of 1997 it only made sense to join him. I grew up in Galveston, Texas and went to College at Texas Tech where I received my Bachelors in Architecture and Masters in Architectural Historic Preservation. After a number of years in south Texas and Kentucky I decided to move to Colorado to pursue my love of the mountains and skiing. After 20 years in the Valley I still cannot imagine living anywhere else. But, I still miss the beach!</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4422" src="https://tabassociates.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/MACIK-0077.jpg" alt="" width="5737" height="3830" srcset="https://tabassociates.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/MACIK-0077.jpg 5737w, https://tabassociates.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/MACIK-0077-300x200.jpg 300w, https://tabassociates.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/MACIK-0077-768x513.jpg 768w, https://tabassociates.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/MACIK-0077-1024x684.jpg 1024w" sizes="(max-width: 5737px) 100vw, 5737px" /></p>
<p>I have a family of 6. That’s, my wife, daughter of 14 years, a dog and two cats. When I do get out of the office I spend a lot of time in our jeep and when my wife lets me, I play golf. Living in Colorado has afforded me and my family many opportunities to really enjoy the outdoors. I still have a hard time thinking about living in a big city away from our beautiful valley.</p>
<p>With Tab’s guidance over the last 20 years we have become a successful and respected firm in the Eagle Valley. We have always remained small so our leadership can continue to guide the direction of the firm and our team members can learn from the collective. Tab has begun to open a new office which should be open in April in Hendersonville, North Carolina. I am excited about this new opportunity to manage the Edwards Office and continue to provide the Valley with quality service and design.</p>
<p>Currently we are 8 strong in Edwards having doubled our size in the last year. Successful projects of over $140 million in the Eagle County Schools and $30 million in the Summit schools has kept us very busy. With this strong team we are situated now to continue to be able to staff new projects. We are also currently working on projects ranging from a planning project in for new housing in Gypsum, a 80+ unit condo project in Avon, 7 Wendy’s restaurants, a reskin of Lake Creek Apartments and other projects.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4423" src="https://tabassociates.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/NEWfolson-view-2.jpg" alt="" width="6720" height="5040" srcset="https://tabassociates.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/NEWfolson-view-2.jpg 6720w, https://tabassociates.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/NEWfolson-view-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https://tabassociates.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/NEWfolson-view-2-768x576.jpg 768w, https://tabassociates.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/NEWfolson-view-2-1024x768.jpg 1024w" sizes="(max-width: 6720px) 100vw, 6720px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>We are always looking for a new project in the Valley and elsewhere in the State.</p>
<p>Stay tuned to our sites as the rest of our team introduce themselves and present the exciting projects we have in the office.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Most interior environments look better during the daytime if abundant natural light is part of the picture! No one likes to spend time in dreary, gloomy places. The following are strategies used by an <a href="https://tabassociates.com/" data-cke-saved-href="https://tabassociates.com/">architectural firm in Vail Valley, CO &amp; Hendersonville, NC</a>, designed to optimize natural lighting in the home.</p>
<h2><strong>Let the Sunshine In</strong></h2>
<p>The most obvious way to ensure large amounts of daylight is to use lots of glass. However, it&#8217;s not quite as simple as just placing as many windows as possible in the structure. <span class="scayt-misspell-word" data-scayt-word="Aesthetics" data-scayt-lang="en_US">Aesthetics</span> such as architectural balance has to come into play as well as the home&#8217;s energy needs.</p>
<p>For instance, filling up a wall with large, north-facing windows probably isn&#8217;t a good</p>
<p>strategy in locations that receive significantly cold winters, and the same principle exists with southern exposures in hot climate areas. A skilled designer will take local atmospheric conditions into consideration to ensure that the interior of the home has proper balance.</p>
<p>Advances in window-glass technology also offers options not available in the past. For example, southern facing windows in hot desert regions can be tinted to ensure that they don&#8217;t cause an annoying glare.</p>
<h2><strong>The Importance of Balance</strong></h2>
<p>One of the most important aspects about designing for the optimal use of natural light is to pay attention to balance. Homes where the majority of sunlight is coming in through windows situated on the same wall experience uneven light, and even worse, shadows. Windows, as well as skylights, must be properly located to avoid glaring conditions on the side of the home where the windows are located, with gloom and shadows on the side with no windows.</p>
<p>One important strategy used by architectural design firms to counteract this imbalance is to place windows as high up as possible because the higher the light source, the deeper the light penetrates, which help keeps interior spaces bright.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Modern design strategies make it possible for high-quality home improvements to act as points of value for homes. For example, across the nation, the integration of home living and outdoor living is being utilized as a design element that adds value to homes and helps increase the use of the entire property space. In this indoor-outdoor blog post, we discuss how the architects of TAB Associates make merging the indoors and outdoors easy, with the use of movable walls.</p>
<h2>Movable Walls: Not New but Still Valuable</h2>
<p>Folding walls can be used to divide a large room, such as a spacious living area. A folding or moveable wall can also be used as an outer wall that leads to the outside, to create a larger living and entertainment area. A glass wall is a thing of beauty. It allows you to have an expanded view of the outside without losing the energy efficiency of your home.  Here’s why.</p>
<p>At 8,150 feet above sea level, Vail Valley, Colorado, offers expansive views of nature. A Vail Valley architect can add a sunroom onto your home’s exterior. In addition, they can install a movable glass wall. During winter, the wall can be opened to create more space and to take advantage of the warmth provided by the sunroom (or the sun in general). On the other hand, in summer, when the weather gets warmer, the glass wall can be closed to insulate your living room. That is just one way that an architect like TAB Associates can help design the perfect mix of indoor and outdoor space.</p>
<h2>Kitchen Expansion Made Simple</h2>
<p>Another good example of how to use a movable wall to increase your home’s space is to place moveable glass walls in the kitchen. By building an outdoor kitchen, you can open the wall and expand your kitchen area for parties, holidays and other events. Such a wall allows you to take full advantage of all of your living space, even those spaces that are outdoors.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What is ‘timeless architecture’? There are many homes and buildings in Vail Valley that exhibit an architectural balance, which is certainly one of the requirements of a design being considered timeless. But there’s more to it than that. Many architects and admirers would say a structure is timeless if it fits well with its environment, melds function and form gracefully &amp; effortlessly, and above all, speaks to people over long periods of time. It has the ability to enrich lives across ages; in defiance of fashion and fads.</p>
<p>Here are three amazing and influential designs that can truly be called timeless.</p>
<h2>Timeless Buildings</h2>
<p><strong>Fallingwater :</strong> &#8211; Frank Lloyd Wright’s masterpiece in the rural loveliness of southwestern Pennsylvania was built in 1935. It was named the “best all-time work of American architecture” by the American Institute of Architects and one of the 28 places a person should visit before they die by Smithsonian Magazine. It’s integration of the natural and the manmade, inspired by Japanese design, is its strength.</p>
<p><strong>The Salk Institute</strong> – Architect Louis Kahn was commissioned to create the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in 1959 by Dr. Jonas Salk, who gifted the world with the vaccine for polio. Kahn studied the ascetic and austere designs of ancient monasteries to develop his vision of a space for intellectual pursuits. He used sparse concrete walls, glass, and natural lighting to create one of the world’s most unique building complexes.</p>
<p><strong>St. Paul’s Cathedral</strong> – Designed in two stages during the <span class="scayt-misspell-word" data-scayt-word="17th" data-scayt-lang="en_US">17th</span> century by legendary English architect Christopher Wren as part of the massive rebuilding project after the Great Fire of London, St. Paul’s Cathedral is one of the world’s great buildings, and has been inspiring architects for many generations.</p>
<p>But when it comes to timeless residential design, I believe that the Old World style is truly timeless.  Because if you cannot tell if it was built 100 years ago or yesterday, then it can be deemed timeless.  I also believe many log homes fall into this same category for the same reasons.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You may be under the impression that mixing a variety of wood furniture in a single room will clash. On the contrary, if all your wood surfaces match, nothing stands out and your room can look flat and boring. While you don’t want to go overboard mixing different wood finishes, there are various techniques to help them blend nicely for a layered, more eclectic look that feels natural and balanced.</p>
<h2 style="color: #000000;">Contrast Different Tones</h2>
<p>Mixing individual pieces of wood furniture in a room with a similarly toned wood floor causes your furnishings to blend with the floor and not stand out. You’ll make a stronger impact when you purposely contrast and break up these tones. Do this by pairing dark stained floors with lighter toned furniture or light stained floors with darker cherry or mahogany furnishings. If your still in the process of building your home and using an architectural firm in Vail Valley, ask them which wood flooring complements your furniture best.</p>
<h2 style="color: #000000;">Use a Buffer</h2>
<p>When contrasting isn’t an option, place a buffer between the floor and your furniture by using an area rug. This option also works when the contrast is too different and incongruous to complement each other. Rugs can create a nice transition and soften the overall effect.</p>
<h2 style="color: #000000;">Tie the Room Together</h2>
<p>Mismatched wood finishes can quickly get out of hand. You can create continuity by tying all the pieces together with matching accent colors. Curtains, lamp shades and throw pillows in the same color work well to make individual pieces blend harmoniously and flow together.</p>
<p>The more you understand your wood’s unique characteristics, the better you can achieve a complementary blend in your <span class="scayt-misspell-word" data-scayt-word="décor" data-scayt-lang="en_US">décor</span>. Some of the most interesting rooms include varied wood tones that add character to your home and Vail Valley architects understand the importance of balancing various wood finishes.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It seems that just about every architecture magazine cover you see these days is highlighting contemporary architecture styles. There’s a prevailing fascination with contemporary architectural design, and with good reason. Vail Valley architects gravitate toward this style due to some key stylistic factors. The following may offer some insights as to why contemporary design continues to be so fascinating:</p>
<h2>Sleek Lines and Edges</h2>
<p>The smooth transitions in contemporary design are pleasing to the eye and soothing to the soul. Inside and out, sleek lines and smooth edges make this style extremely inviting.</p>
<h2>Symmetry and Balance</h2>
<p>Contemporary architectural design is also harmonious in terms of color and design elements. Even if the structure isn’t literally symmetrical, there is an implied symmetry and balance in all of the elements used in contemporary architectural designs.</p>
<h2>A Homage to Technology</h2>
<p>The world around us keeps evolving and advancing in terms of technology. It isn’t surprising that modern architecture designs are now reflecting this. The use of high-sheen materials, brushed metals and high-tech accents reflect the world around us as it continues to expand and evolve.</p>
<h2>Appealing Hybrids Are Emerging</h2>
<p>Contemporary design also isn’t limited to just high-tech styles. Many new designs in effect offer a hybrid of new designs, as well as what has worked in past decades. The result is a compelling balance of classic and contemporary elements that can take architecture to new places.</p>
<p>TAB Associates is an architectural firm in Vail Valley, CO and Hendersonville, NC that prides itself on finding balance in all areas of architectural design. The structure, program, construction, and cost of every project are all orchestrated to be in harmony.</p>
<p>Just like the rest of the modern world, architecture keeps evolving in highly compelling ways. <a href="https://tabassociates.com/contact/">Consult TAB Associates</a> when you’re ready to make your design visions a reality. Your Vail Valley/Hendersonville architects bring contemporary design and architectural balance together for you.</p>

<p>Open floor plans are one of the biggest trends being requested at Vail Valley architects today. Just as the name would imply, an open floor plan is one that makes several small rooms into one large one. Most commonly, people request that their architects create an open floor plan with the kitchen, dining room and family room all being combined into a single large area. There is no doubt that open floor plans are all the rage today — but is this type of floor plan right for your next home? Ask yourself these questions to find out.</p>
<h2>Does Much of the Socializing Happens in the Kitchen?</h2>
<p>Many families say that the majority of their family time and general socialization time is done in the kitchen.  This often happens because the people who do the cooking want to be involved in the conversations, and everyone tends to gravitate towards wherever the cook is preparing a meal.  If this happens in your family, an open floor plan may be perfect for you. You can wash the dishes, cook dinner and clean the kitchen all while chatting with the family and keeping an eye on the kids!  The kitchen is considered the heart of the home.</p>
<h2>Do You Enjoy Entertaining?</h2>
<p>If you love to entertain, there is no better option than an open floor plan. Rather than having small segments of people scattered all over the home, in an open floor plan people can mill around freely. As a host, you can keep up with all the guests every easily this way, too. Everybody is within your view at all times, and nobody will feel isolated.</p>
<p>Looking to create a new home with an architectural balance unique to your needs? Whether you want an open floor plan or an entirely different concept, TAB Associates can help. <a href="https://tabassociates.com/contact/">Give us a call to start planning your next home today!</a></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What is ‘timeless architecture’? There are many homes and buildings in Vail Valley that exhibit architectural balance, certainly one of the requirements of a design being considered timeless. But there’s more to it than that. Many architects and admirers would say a structure is timeless if it fits well with its environment, melds function and form gracefully and effortlessly, and above all, speaks to people over long periods of time, that has the ability to enrich lives across ages, in  defiance of fashion and fads.</p>
<p>Here are three amazing and influential designs that can truly be called timeless.</p>
<h2>Timeless Buildings</h2>
<p><a href="http://www.fallingwater.org/" data-cke-saved-href="http://www.fallingwater.org/"><u><span class="scayt-misspell-word" data-scayt-word="Fallingwater" data-scayt-lang="en_US">Fallingwater</span></u></a> &#8211; Frank Lloyd Wright’s masterpiece in the rural loveliness of southwestern Pennsylvania was built in 1935. It was named the &#8220;best all-time work of American architecture&#8221; by the American Institute of Architects and one of the 28 places a person should visit before they die by Smithsonian Magazine. It’s integration of the natural and the manmade, inspired by Japanese design, is its strength.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.salk.edu/" data-cke-saved-href="http://www.salk.edu/"><u>The Salk Institute</u></a> &#8211; Architect Louis Kahn was commissioned to create the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in 1959 by Dr. Jonas Salk, who gifted the world with the vaccine for polio. Kahn studied the ascetic and austere designs of ancient monasteries to develop his vision of a space for intellectual pursuits. He used sparse concrete walls, glass, and natural lighting to create one of the world’s most unique building complexes.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.stpauls.co.uk/" data-cke-saved-href="https://www.stpauls.co.uk/"><u>St. Paul’s Cathedral</u></a> &#8211; Designed in two stages during the <span class="scayt-misspell-word" data-scayt-word="17th" data-scayt-lang="en_US">17th</span> century by legendary English architect Christopher Wren as part of the massive rebuilding project after the Great Fire of London, St. Paul&#8217;s Cathedral is one of the world’s great buildings, and has been inspiring architects for many generations.</p>
<p>But when it comes to timeless residential design, I believe that the Old World style is truly timeless.  Because if you cannot tell if it was built 100 years ago or yesterday, then it can be deemed timeless.  I also believe many log homes fall into this same category for the same reasons.</p>
<p>If you’re in need of a <a href="https://tabassociates.com/">Vail Valley architectural firm</a> to add the element of timelessness into your home, contact TAB Associates for a consultation.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Modern design strategies make it possible for high-quality home improvements to act as points of value for homes. For example, across the nation, the integration of home living and outdoor living is being utilized as a design element that adds value to homes and helps increase the use of the entire property space. In this indoor-outdoor blog post, we discuss how the architects of TAB Associates make merging the indoors and outdoors easy, with the use of movable walls.</p>
<h2>Movable Walls: Not New but Still Valuable</h2>
<p>Folding walls can be used to divide a large room, such as a spacious living area. A folding or moveable wall can also be used as an outer wall that leads to the outside, to create a larger living and entertainment area. A glass wall is a thing of beauty. It allows you to have an expanded view of the outside without losing the energy efficiency of your home.  Here’s why.</p>
<p>At 8,150 feet above sea level, Vail Valley, Colorado, offers expansive views of nature. A Vail Valley architect can add a sunroom onto your home’s exterior. In addition, they can install a movable glass wall. During winter, the wall can be opened to create more space and to take advantage of the warmth provided by the sunroom (or the sun in general). On the other hand, in summer, when the weather gets warmer, the glass wall can be closed to insulate your living room. That is just one way that an architect like TAB Associates can help design the perfect mix of indoor and outdoor space.</p>
<h2>Kitchen Expansion Made Simple</h2>
<p>Another good example of how to use a movable wall to increase your home’s space is to place moveable glass walls in the kitchen. By building an outdoor kitchen, you can open the wall and expand your kitchen area for parties, holidays and other events. Such a wall allows you to take full advantage of all of your living space, even those spaces that are outdoors.</p>

<p>In an interior &#8216;world&#8217; full of shabby-chic trends, an industrial based style core can stand out using the simple concept of ‘less is more’. Seated in an era known for progress and breaking boundaries in science and engineering, it’s no wonder that less frill is the ‘go-to’ theme for this interior style. Who has time for crocheted lamp shades and hand-sewn toilet seat covers when you’re trying to improve upon society’s mechanical shortcomings?</p>
<p>As striking and bold as this design can be, it can easily swallow a small space in a gloomy mood not intended by the designer. This can be prevented by providing a light, neutral base for background such as whitewashed walls. This can be done on top of a wooden ‘planked’ wall, a brick wall, or even stucco. If a lighter color is not to be desired, keep the background neutral. Earthy colors always pair better with this type of design. Think grays, light browns, beige. To be sure, the important elements in this type of décor are the accents.</p>
<p>To accent with industrial type features, re-purposing is the name of the game. Galvanized pipe can be used along with additional wooden planks to create shelving systems, either high or low to the ground. Creative lighting fixtures can be made from items that never would have been used for that purpose, such as early twentieth century birdcages or colanders. An underlying presence of mixed metals is traditionally incorporated into this type of décor and they can vary from corrugated tin to iron fixtures. Aluminum, steel, pewter… all of these finishes offer unique qualities in their design to be used in anything such as wall fixtures, accent pieces, and fans or clocks.</p>
<p>Another important quality in which this style is known for is its attention to functionality and the ever present fascination of ‘how does it work’? This certainly must have been a burning question in many an innovator/ inventor’s mind as they pieced together or pulled apart the object(s) of their obsession. A good example of this would be the intricate gears you can see in many industrial design themes.</p>
<p>Do all these hard edge materials mean the space can’t be comfortable or inviting? Certainly not! I would suggest, however, any soft materials such as rugs, pillows, or throws be kept neutral as well. If color is incorporated, I would definitely research color palettes from the early twentieth century. This can keep the space authentic and continuous.</p>
<p>When it comes to creative interior design, hopefully, these helpful tips will bring out the innovator in you!</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Change the Look</strong></p>
<p>Fads come and go, but the classic principles of interior design never really change. The year 2016 has brought with it some interesting ideas for the home that blends together with contemporary technology, definition and schematics. Let us look at some new trends that can quickly implement new trends with promising effects.</p>
<p><strong>Mix the Match</strong></p>
<p>The same look in every room getting you down? – Not to fear. Add some ethnic flavor with accents that show decorative promise.</p>
<p>Optical illusions can never be old school and this year, the cluster of small mirrors intermingled with the larger ones transform a room dramatically to create a spacious look.</p>
<p>If you want to jazz things up with a mix of colors, bright color is in the news and can change the look and the ambiance of any room quick. What you need to look out for is to make sure that the lighting complements the schematics.</p>
<p>The old theme of the same old ceiling color has changed in design and temperament. Add a highlighted space on the ceiling with strategically positioned LED lighting.</p>
<p>Go for minimal and urban design in the kitchen by implementing an open kitchen. Use placement of tables and islands to change the dynamic to instill a sense of privacy, while still maintaining the open look.</p>
<p>The latest design that creates an aura of something different is the change in the bathroom tiles. Forget about the same old tiles, and fuse in some geometric shapes, ceramic tiles, or or stone murals.</p>
<p><strong>Go the Distance</strong></p>
<p>If you want to change the theme of the home, you have to be open to suggestions. However, be as open and descriptive as possible with a designer if you have a certain idea in mind. Blending two – contemporary and classic chic does change the dynamic. Add extra greenery and you have yourself a winner.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="p1">As we welcome the New Year, a home renovation plan could be a great way to start off on a fresh note. The coming year will turn out to be even more exciting when you decide to try out new things, especially with respect to the interior design of your home.</p>
<p class="p1"><b>Bathroom Interiors</b></p>
<p class="p1">Let’s begin with the bathroom interiors. It can be difficult and expensive to design bathrooms, especially master bathrooms. It means dealing with plumbing, ventilation and electrical systems and adhering to energy and water-saving codes according to your location.</p>
<p class="p1">In the New Year, independent toilet rooms will be the buzzword. These toilet rooms have the benefit of adding a touch of privacy to shared baths. Also, if you’re planning to renovate your bathroom in the coming year, go frameless for your shower enclosures. This is a crisper and cleaner look and allows the shower tiles to shine through!</p>
<p class="p1"><b>Kitchen Designs</b></p>
<p class="p1">In 2016, as far as the interior design of kitchens is concerned, you will still have to ensure efficient storage facilities, and you can get back the tiles into your kitchen. In the New Year, kitchen renovations will be high on textured and colored tiles. You don’t necessarily need to install a very bright or strong color; neutrals will work well too. Take inspiration from European designs to renovate your home&#8217;s kitchen in 2016!</p>
<p class="p1"><b>Darker Color Palettes</b></p>
<p class="p1">For the longest time, we have been observing mostly white home interiors including white floors, white walls, white ceilings, white upholstery and so on. This year, however, interior designers are predicting that there might be a transition towards darker and moodier hues. This means that homeowners planning a renovation can think about incorporating colors such as charcoal, navy, aubergine and hunter green into their home interiors. Use the colors on walls, ceilings or upholstery to add a touch of glamor to your home décor.</p>
<p class="p1"><b>Combining Vintage and Contemporary</b></p>
<p class="p1">A key home renovation trend in the New Year will be the mixing of contemporary and vintage design elements while styling your home. When you combine furniture and other interior elements from various eras, it lends a more dynamic look to your space. In order to shop for good quality old furniture, visit antique stores, and add a touch of history to your home décor. It will also make your home look warmer and more welcoming.</p>
<p class="p1">It is a good idea to <a href="https://tabassociates.com/contact/">consult a professional</a> before deciding on a particular home renovation idea for the New Year.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="p1">What is great architecture? Several designers in <span class="s1">Colorado</span> believe that it is a rich interaction between various critical elements. However, there are so many elements that make up a building that it can often create confusion regarding which elements are the most crucial.</p>
<p class="p1">Typically, all <span class="s1">architecture</span> is aimed at achieving some kind of balance with respect to the design, whether symmetrical or asymmetrical. While designing, certain theories and laws need to be taken into consideration.</p>
<p class="p1">If architecture has to have some <span class="s1">balance</span>, designers need to think about synchronizing elements so that each of them relates to the other. Ultimately, the aim is to build some sort of system. Balance is not just about the physical building being structurally and aesthetically sound. Architectural balance is achieved when a designer manages to design for all human senses.</p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><b>Importance</b></span><b> of Symmetry and Asymmetry in Architectural Design</b></p>
<p class="p1">Symmetry is one way to achieve architectural balance. This means having a mirror image around a pivotal or primary axis. This is quite common in architecture, especially classical architecture. The symmetry could be radial as well.</p>
<p class="p1">Designers can also aim for approximate symmetry. This does not involve a mirror image. However, the elements built on one of the sides of the central axis get roughly imitated on the other.</p>
<p class="p1">Lastly, balance in architecture could be asymmetrical as well. Designers might find this more challenging to achieve. This could present a more intriguing view but if not done correctly, it can make all the individual parts look fine, the system as a whole could appear awkward. Asymmetrical architectural balance is usually considered as casual while symmetrical balance seems more formal.</p>
<p class="p1">In either case, form should follow function so manipulating the function to achieve symmetry is sometimes not true to the architecture.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="p1">Your new home will be an important part of your family&#8217;s life, so you chose to hire a reputed Architect to design a beautiful home for you. Yet, if you and your Architect are not able to communicate properly, you may end up with a product that is not built to your liking. The following tips will point out how you can effectively communicate with your Architect.</p>
<p> 	<b>Do a bit of research- </b>Before you begin to design your home, it is best to look around and expose yourself to interior design and existing architectural trends to decide what you want.</p>
<p> 	<b>Preferred mode of communication- </b>Once you hire your Architect, establish the most efficient form of communication between you both. The frequency and speed of response will be based upon whether you choose emails, text messages, voice calls and so on.</p>
<p> 	<b>Make a schedule- </b>Once the preferred mode of communication is established, make a weekly schedule so that you and your Architect can plan the meetings accordingly.</p>
<p> 	<b>Take it one step at a time- </b>It is not conducive to go into the details of what you need from a home right at the beginning. Start with a solid idea and then build up from there.</p>
<p> 	<b>Ask for 3D views- </b>Architects are experts at seeing 3D even when they are looking at 2D images. Ask for a 3D version so that your visions are aligned.</p>
<p> 	<b>Make sure that you understand everything- </b>Although architects will try their best to make themselves understood, they may use some terminology that you&#8217;re unfamiliar with. Get clarity on any confusion, no matter how small.</p>
<p> 	<b>Get cost estimates for each design- </b>A design may look great but before you set your heart to it, check how much money it will take to build it.  this may require a builder being involved in the early stages to acquire solid budgets.</p>
<p> 	<b>Show your architect a lot of pictures- </b>Most of the time, your ideas cannot be communicated through words as you do not know the terminology. Show your Architect plenty of pictures of designs so that he or she knows exactly what you want.  It is important to also show your Architect pictures of what you do not like.  In this way, they can get in your head and understand your desires.</p>
<p> 	<b>Write everything down- </b>Taking notes at the end of a meeting will ensure that you and your architect are on the same page at all times.</p>
<p> 	<b>Collaborate with your Architect and builder- </b>At every design stage, try to collaborate between the builder and the Architect so that the designs can be feasible and beautiful at the same time.</p>
<p>With a little bit of effort from your side, you should be able to use the talent of your Architect to build your dream home!</p>
