High-End Remodeling Tips for New Home Buyers
If you could build your dream home, what would it entail? Would you add intricate tiles or stunning hardwood floors? When remodeling your home, looking for high-quality, timeless pieces to upgrade your living space is important. However, with so many options and stylistic choices available, it can be challenging to finalize your renovation plans.
To help you along the way, here are a few high-end remodeling tips for new home buyers and anyone interested in revamping their property.
Invest in Your Kitchen
The kitchen is the heart of any home and requires special attention. Invest in quality materials and fixtures such as quartz or granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and top-of-the-line appliances to create a timeless look that meets your unique needs. Integrating smart devices can also enhance your cooking experience and make entertaining a breeze.
Open Your Living Spaces
Open floor plans are popular among luxury home buyers, offering a spacious, airy atmosphere that’s perfect for entertaining guests. Consider knocking down walls or integrating sliding doors to create a seamless flow between rooms. Expansive windows and skylights can bring in ample natural light, making the space more inviting.
Create a Relaxing Oasis Bathroom
A spa-like bathroom provides the ultimate relaxation zone within your home. Say goodbye to dated fixtures and decor, and say hello to refreshing hues and personal touches. Adding modernized features to your bathroom, like a walk-in shower, freestanding bathtub, and heated floors, can transform the space into a rejuvenating sanctuary. Don’t forget to include ample storage and luxurious finishes to elevate the overall look.
Incorporate the Perfect Lighting
High-quality lighting is essential for setting the mood and highlighting your home’s best features. Layered lighting is a common approach to luxury home design, combining ambient, task, and accent lighting in a complementary manner. Investing in energy-efficient, dimmable LED lights can also help you save on energy costs in the long run.
Focus on Outdoor Living
Extend your luxurious living spaces to the outdoors by creating a functional, well-designed outdoor area. Add a spacious patio, outdoor kitchen, or even a swimming pool to make your backyard an inviting space for relaxation. You can also add fire features and heating options to allow you and your guests to enjoy year-round.
Include Smart Home Features
For today’s high-end homeowners, incorporating smart home technology is essential to any remodel. From voice-activated controls and automated lighting to advanced security systems, these features offer added convenience, efficiency, and longevity to your home’s design.
Designing and planning a renovation can be tough. But it’s an excellent opportunity to create a stunning space that reflects your style and needs. By using these high-end remodel tips for new homeowners, you can easily revamp your house, allowing you to craft the luxurious home of your dreams.

The Best Shades And Blinds For Every Room In Your Home
Any homeowner wants the best shades and blinds when it comes to decorating the windows. Window treatments are a sophisticated blend of style and function. They not only decorate your home and work environment, but they also serve a purpose. The tasks that your window treatments must perform may vary depending on the specifics of the room. The windows in each room will also have various needs that must be met in order to get the best performance out of your window coverings. In this blog we will discuss about the best shades and blinds for every room in your home
The first step in working with a Sun Blinds YYC design professional is to examine the demands of the room and the windows inside that space. In order to create the finest recommendations for your window coverings, they evaluate all of the practical aspects of the room as well as your personal needs or preferences. Here are some of the factors they analyse before providing suggestions.
Light control
Energy efficiency
Privacy
Views
Aesthetics
Now that we've covered a few of the major points, we'll go through your home's many rooms and examine which window coverings would best fulfil the practical needs of each space.
Window Treatments for Living Room
When someone enters your home, the living room is usually the first room they see. This is where you may introduce yourself and show-off the sense of style, personality, and vibe you wish to create for your entire home.
Vertical blinds maybe an excellent choice for your living room if you require privacy and light control. Vertical blinds are a fashionable alternative for windows that are broader than they are tall, and they can make your ceilings appear higher. They can be partially opened to let in some natural light while yet maintaining some privacy.
Best Shades and Blinds for Bedroom
Perhaps long flowing drapes aren't your taste, but you like the notion of fabric window treatments because of the many possibilities available. The window treatments for your bedroom are then Roman shades. Roman shades add a stunning aesthetic border to the window while remaining within the window's framework. When they are closed, they will block out the bulk of the light coming in through the window and provide some seclusion. The amount of light that is blocked depends on the material of the Roman shades. They can also be partially lifted to expose some of the shade's colour and pattern while leaving a portion of the window open.
Window Treatments for Dining Room
Dining rooms are places for people to meet and celebrate. Most of these functions will take place during meal times, therefore while looking for window treatments for your dining area, consider the direction your windows face. Your dining room is an excellent setting for both elegance and powerful statements. Feel free to inject some theatrical flair into this space.
Long, cascading side panels will instantly add elegance and grace to your dining room. Panels frame your windows, allowing natural light to enter. Top treatments are an excellent addition to panels, adding an extra design element for a "wow" factor to your space. Panels can be used to create texture and depth to your room by layering them on top of other window coverings.
Window Treatments for Kitchen
The purpose of the windows in the kitchen is to bring in plenty of natural light. Nobody wants a dimly lit kitchen. The fundamental purpose of kitchen window treatments should be to frame your windows while not restricting light. Depending on where your windows are, you may want to think about the material used for your window treatments.
Faux wood blinds have the look of real wood but are far more robust and resistant to dampness. They are also quite adaptable in terms of light control. Depending on whether they are open, closed, or partially open, they can allow in as much or as little light as required.
Window Treatments for Bathroom
Bathroom windows are designed to let in light while maintaining a certain level of privacy.
Vinyl shutters are one of the most durable window treatments for bathrooms and will endure much longer in humid environments. They also require the least amount of care, which is another advantage of incorporating them into your bathroom. Vinyl shutters have the appearance of wood shutters and are resistant to moisture and humidity.
Conclusion
So, these were some of the best shades and blinds you can choose for every room in your house. Window treatments play an important role in ensuring that each area serves its primary function while also adding beauty and elegance to the space. Sun Blinds YYC has what you need no matter which part of your home you want to update with window treatments. With thousands of alternatives available, your Sun Blinds YYC Design expert will be able to help you in narrowing your options to what would best serve you. Our goal is to discover the ideal window treatments for your lifestyle and requirements.

Dean Larkin Design River Lane Renovation Project
Dean Larkin was recently asked to do a renovation project that has become known as the River Lane Renovation Project. In addition to being a fun project for the Dean Larkin Design team, the design is being considered for the 2023 Luxe Residential Excellence in Design Awards and the owner of the home is a personal friend of Dean’s.
The project began when Dean’s friend visited a kitchen design store and found the options a little overwhelming. He asked Dean to help with the kitchen, and then the project expanded to the whole house. Dean recalls, “We were able to improve the indoor flow, and the owner loves the new flow and is really happy with it. He let us do everything, down to the furnishing. And of course, like anything else, we started out in the kitchen. We ended up redoing parts of his secondary bathroom as well, because having been done in the 80s, the old design would look totally out of place in the newly remodeled house.”
The project’s most compelling aspect was the vision that Dean had for his friend’s home. Despite having been there numerous times before, Dean had never examined the house from an architect’s perspective. However, once he did, he envisioned a remarkably distinctive future for the property. Dean’s depiction of this vision was evident in his rendering, which served as a powerful tool. The homeowner had long desired a change, but had no clear idea of what that might entail. It was only after viewing Dean’s rendering that the owner could visualize the finished project and fell in love with the potential that had been unveiled and was determined to achieve precisely what was illustrated.
Tumblr media
Bedroom
In the bedroom, a horizontal shelf posed a design challenge, which was solved by adding a white painted vertical wood “headboard” behind the bed to showcase a painting. The painting we used was actually one painted by our client’s mother, and was special to him.
Dean shared, “My friend is a huge art collector, not super expensive art, but some Chagall prints and some Salvador Dali prints. He had too much so we had to thin the collection. For their bedroom, I had them pick their favorite art. One of them was a painting his mom had done and so I got to highlight it and do the whole room around it. I loved that his mom got kind of a special place in his life that way and it was a lot of fun.”
Kitchen
The placement of the range in relation to the island and sink often presents an opportunity to make a statement in the kitchen. To create a visually striking design in the new great room, we established a strong axis with the breakfast bar, sink, and range as the visual center. The kitchen countertops were white, but we took advantage of the range’s location to showcase a beautiful marble backsplash on the wall, making it the star of the show. The white countertops surrounding the range served to highlight the owner, who frequently acts as chef while entertaining in the kitchen. This design approach effectively framed the cooking area and made it a central feature of the space.
Dean notes, “The stone that we had in the rendering was called Picasso, which is a gorgeous, gorgeous stone. Luckily, I picked a stone for the rendering that was available, because he said to make it look just like the picture.”
The grays and caramels were classic mid-century neutrals, and acted like an art piece. We had no other backsplash in the kitchen and we did full height cabinetry everywhere else in the kitchen so that the star would be just that piece. We decided if we are going to do a backsplash, we would really do it. Rather than creating a filler between the uppers and the lowers, we created a statement.
Cantoni Couch
Other elements from the rendering were less exactly copied. The light fixtures or pendants were different but better, as well as the barstools.
The couch was also a little different from the rendering, though Dean’s friend really wanted to have the couch from the drawing. A Cantoni couch was the closest we found and the client fell in love with it.
The couch was made with a performance fabric, which are high durability fabrics that can be cleaned with solvents and can stand up to more “abuse.” The fabric is indestructible plastic, and can’t even be hurt by bleach, so the client would have no worries about damaging the furniture.
Dean shared, “We had a lot of fun with this project and really enjoyed helping my friend renovate his space into something he loved.”
Outdoors and Light
Two things that are built into the DNA of Dean Larkin Design are incorporating light into every project, and a blurring of the lines between indoors and outdoors. In the River Lane renovation project, we have skylights over the entertainment area that shines natural light into the kitchen as well. In addition, we have a clear line of vision from the kitchen, across the dining and entertainment areas, and through a window wall into a courtyard with trees, greenery and more light. On the subject of the landscape, we also feel that the design complements the beautiful landscape design of Zucker Design Associates, who also worked on the project.
Contact Dean Larkin for Exceptional Contemporary Design in California
Our work on the River Lane renovation project was fun and we are thrilled that the client was so happy with the results. The final product is represented beautifully in the images by photographer Jeri Koegel. For more images of the project, see our residential project feature page. Dean Larkin Design was established in Los Angeles in 1999 and this modern architecture firm maximizes the intrinsic potential of a location, including its available natural light sources. Dean Larkin is very familiar with both historical and contemporary design in the entire Los Angeles area, and the firm endeavors to achieve a complexity that is multi-layered with an effortless elegance. For a design that is modern and innovative, unlocks your location’s innate potential by making specific use of light, views and more, and uniquely designed for the way you live, contact Dean Larkin for a consultation.

The Roti Maker and the Bachelor
Roti is a vital part of Indian cuisine. There is no denying the fact that one can hardly imagine ‘Indian Food spread’ without the ‘Wheat Wonder’. In fact needless to say ‘Roti making’ is an art and pride for most women. The ability to prepare nice, round, fluffy Rotis is an accomplishment for most women. In fact, some time back, not long ago, a girl was deemed ‘appropriate’ for marraige based on how good her roti preparations are (despite the regressive tone it carries in times today). Hence, it became vital for the Indian Women folk to ‘learn’ perfect roti-preparations in order to attract a good groom! However, with the advent of technology in our kitchens, a lot has changed. Thankfully we have a lot more to consider and look out for in the era today. 
Roti Making and The Men today
While the feminist movement has taken a huge plunge into the millennium, a lot has changed ever since. Be it the world, culture and the times we live in; have all undergone massive shifts. Likewise, our men-flock have also undergone a lot of changes. Now, the modern man is also independent and confident in the kitchen. He is no longer dependent on his Mother, wife or sisters to cook for him. Surprisingly a lot of them are better cooks than the women of their homes! The modern man can prepare his own palate of delicacies and is not embarrassed about getting his hands dirty in the kitchen. In fact, he is proud to wear the Apron and flaunt his cooking skills; maybe use it to attract a possible partner in the process! So, how does he deals with the very traditional art of Roti preparations? Well, this is where the Roti maker comes into the picture. 
Roti Maker for the Modern Kitchen
The best roti maker in India can help a lot of guys prepare closer home kind of Rotis. This is because it compresses the entire process into a single appliance. Now, rolling and roasting of the Rotis can be done by the Roti maker alone. One simply has to prepare the dough and place the dough balls in between the plates of the maker. A gentle press and your soft fluffy Rotis are ready in a jiffy. This is an electrically powered appliance that comprises some great-looking sophisticated features to assist you along the way. 
CONCLUSION
Why should girls have all the fun? Well, guys, take control of your kitchen, your food and your Rotis along the way. Get a Roti maker today and you no longer need to depend on anyone for a nice Roti for dinner. Of course, you are going to miss your mother nonetheless, and there is nothing that can be done about that!

How to Prepare for Live-in Care
Tumblr media
Live-in care means having someone come into your loved one’s home to help them with the tasks and activities they may struggle to do independently.
The live-in carer you choose must be able to provide the level of care required for your loved one. They should also fit the personality of the person they’re going to care for.
Once you’ve hired a live-in caregiver, there are a few things you need to do to prepare your home for the live-in carer. 
Here are some tips to help you get started
Room
You need to prepare a room where the live-in caregiver will stay when they’re not providing care. Their job isn’t easy, so the carer should have a place where they can relax and unwind. In case the carer, for some reason, can’t have a room of their own, they should have, at the very least, a room or study they can use.
There’s no need to decorate the room. What’s important is that it’s clean and comfortable, and fresh linen should be provided. In case you plan to move your loved one into a ground-floor room, the carer may be able to take the room upstairs if there’s a spare.
The room should have a bed, closet, and other basic facilities. You can provide other things that may help the carer feel comfortable in the house during their stay.
When it comes to the bathroom, it’s not required for them to have a bathroom. But it would be helpful if they did. The bathroom in your home should be functional and clean, whether it’s shared or not.
Internet Connection
If you have Wi-Fi, you should consider letting the carer use it. It may not be required, but having an internet connection may help the carer stay in touch with others. It’s also useful for other things such as entertainment, research, shopping, and more. But make sure they have the access code.
Access To The Kitchen
The caregiver needs access to your kitchen to prepare meals for your loved one and themselves. This is a particular part of any home, so ensure your loved one is aware and agrees to let the caregiver use the kitchen.
Other Things To Consider
The carer needs to know where things are. So, it would be best if you considered spending time with the live-in caregiver during their first few days in the house. You can show them where everything is and how things usually work at home during this time.
It would be best if you also gave your live-in carer a key to the house so they can enter and leave the premises quickly. You should consider keeping your loved one’s valuables kept in a safe place. Although you should only hire a live-in carer from a reputable service provider, there’s nothing wrong with taking the necessary precautions so you’ll have peace of mind.
What does a live-in carer do?
A live-in carer takes on several responsibilities. They’re responsible for your loved one’s continence and personal care. They need to remind your loved ones about their medication and make sure they take it as scheduled.
They may also help with the general housework, such as cleaning, cooking, and shopping. Make sure to clear this out with the caregiver before signing any contract.
They’re also expected to provide companionship care where they try to connect with your loved one so they won’t feel lonely or depressed. They also give clinical care, especially if your loved one has a special condition or recently had an operation.
