Karuna House Interior Design Details - Video
Adi Asulin lives in a fabulous apartment on the top floor of a seven-story building in the Israeli town of Ra'anana, north of Tel Aviv. The entry hall is long and light. Windows open onto an enormous balcony, which wraps around three sides of her home. The decor is fresh and white.
"It's all made in China," Asulin says.
Not just made in China. Nearly everything the floors, the lighting, the furniture she bought in China on a 10-day shopping spree.
The day after Asulin and her husband got keys to the place, she got on a plane to Guangzhou, in southern China.
"An adventure!" she says.
The big appeal was the price.
"Forty, sometimes 50 percent off the prices in Israel," Asulin says.
The savings add up the bigger the job. Her new apartment had been a rental and needed a lot of fixing. But buying plus remodeling seemed beyond the family budget.
From a friend, Asulin heard about Israeli companies that arrange trips for individuals to buy directly from Chinese factories. She signed up, getting tickets and booking hotel rooms for herself, an architect and her dad for advice.
Once on the ground in Guangzhou, the trio were guided by the owner of the Israeli company and local staff. Their first stop was a flooring factory bigger than Asulin had ever seen half the size of her city, she says.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. Construction companies and contractors are gathering in Springfield this weekend to convince people to gut kitchens and bathrooms.
The Homebuilders Association of Greater Springfield is putting on its remodeling expo. The association told KOLR10 Friday there is more interest in the show this year than in the past.
Although the construction industry has not climbed back to where it was in the past, it's adding jobs again because people are more confident they can invest in new projects.
When times get lean like they did during the recession, homeowners in the Ozarks have to trim the fat.
Scott Bracy of Steward Construction is someone customers can call when they want a kitchen or bathroom makeover. Bracy said during the recession, remodeling was popular because people were staying in their homes. However, the scope of the projects was limited.
"During the recession there were lots of small remodels where now we're seeing lots of larger projects, just more money being spent by the consumer," Bracy said.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, sales at building and garden supply stores increased by nearly 7 percent from August 2013 to August 2014.
Charylce Ruth, the president of the homebuilders association, says these kinds of signs have brought businesses back out to shows.
Back in the heyday of course we were sold out and then everything got a little tighter and unfortunately some people went out of business, Ruth said. We're seeing people come back in the industry. Theyre more excited to be at a trade show. They have those advertising dollars."
Bracy said this year in particular has been a good one, helping him put more people to work.

Vail, CO (PRWEB) October 07, 2014
Nine months and plenty of construction after the Antlers at Vail hotel in Vail, Colo., launched its Unit Quality Improvement plan with the goal of bringing 100 percent of its suites up to Vails highest Platinum ranking for lodging, more than half of the condominium hotels units have received the luxe upgrades. To celebrate the milestone and complement the upscale new look of its rooms the Antlers has unveiled a new logo and redesigned website just in time for busy Vail ski season bookings.
Designed by Denver-based Wigwam Creative, Antlers at Vails new logo offers a clean, modern approach while incorporating the Colorado mountain resort towns European cachet, as well as the hotels popular elk antlers theme on view in the iconic bronze statue of two clashing elk in the hotels courtyard, a favorite photo opp for guests from around the world. Stylized snow-capped mountains and a yellow sun complete the logo, while offering a hat tip to Vails renowned skiing as well as Colorados famously sunny weather.
The just-launched website emphasizes photography including the newly upgraded units as photographed by Michael Rawlings and styled by Amy Lewis and presents the old sites familiar color palette in a new way. Created by Vail-based Nichols Interactive, the new http://www.antlersvail.com is a responsive site that automatically adjusts to devices used to access it, and puts the most valuable information at the users fingertips while highlighting the fun personality of the Antlers established blog and valuable feedback from travelers on TripAdvisor.
Our logo and corporate identity was 40 years old, and as comfortable as we were with it too comfortable, probably as we began to see the amazing results of our Unit Quality Improvement plan moving us toward becoming an overall Platinum-rated property, we realized it was time for a new logo and visual brand to represent the new Antlers, says Antlers GM Rob LeVine. Both because of our name and our well-known courtyard sculpture, we felt it was important to keep the elk and antlers as part of our logo. Plus, we wanted to convey that although we look better, our values remain the same, emphasizing our the answer is yes, now what is the question approach to customer service, our family feel and our strong role as a community partner.
Unique to vacation destinations, Vail Valley Partnership manages a Lodging Quality Assurance program (LQA) that provides a standardized rating system for all units rented through the Vail Valleys central reservation systems, with Platinum representing the highest level of room appointments. Antlers at Vail interior upgrades in recent months have included granite countertops, stainless appliances, new flooring, lighting, entertainment systems, fireplaces, furnishings and much more with resulting upgrades to the Platinum LQA scores.
Were getting great feedback from our loyal guests who have been coming here for years about the changes both here at the Antlers and on our website, says LeVine, which is so important to us. And at the same time we hope our new look and website presence will make it easier for new guests to find us and see what we have to offer.

The hotel is a perennial recipient of the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence and recognized as a TripAdvisor GreenLeader.

FLORENCE, S.C. Since 2010, Carolina Home Design & Construction has served the Pee Dee region and beyond in the remodeling business.
Dwight Doty and Marcus Tanner are the companys business partners.
Doty does the planning, estimating and design of projects. Tanner handles the production side of projects.
The company is one of the sponsors of the Taste of Home Cooking School, which will be held Tuesday at the Southeastern Institute of Manufacturing and Technology. Carolina Home Design & Construction specializes in the remodeling of bathrooms and kitchens, but it is not against tackling any other type of remodeling project.
We do all types of remodeling, whether its additions or tearing out walls or things like that, Doty said. But our primary focus is kitchens and bathrooms.
In addition to construction projects, Carolina Home Design is a dealer of cabinets, hardware and countertops. One of its primary manufacturers is Wellborn Cabinet Company in Alabama.
Its all American-made stuff, Doty said. All materials for the cabinets, as far as the wood, are all American grown. It comes right out of the woods in Tennessee and goes straight to the plant.
Carolina Home Design uses 3D computer software to draw plans that allows customers to vividly see how their finished remodel will look before it is even started. Doty said that is one aspect of the company that sets it apart from other companies.
We do the whole remodel, Doty said. I go to somebodys house, take measurements, discuss budgets and stuff with them, and then I come up with a design that will typically meet their budget and show them the plans.
The companys showroom is located at 401C Second Loop Road, and it is there where customers can choose the cabinets and countertops they want to add to their remodeling project. Doty said they work with other companies for additional products they might need, such as floor coverings or tiles.
