Sunroom Additions - Ideas & Designs + Costs | Champion

A tasty salad of tender pea shoots. Handfuls of fragrant herbs for the stew. Snack vegetables for lunch boxes.

Keeping a fresh supply of greens and herbs on hand can be challenging as the growing season winds down, or if you don't have a garden. But now you can plop a planter anywhere in your house, set a few timers, and in about 10 days you'll be nibbling greens like a contented rabbit.

There are a variety of indoor grow gardens on the market that come with everything you need: planter, planting medium, seeds, fertilizer and a high-intensity grow light. Smart tech and remote controls adjust lighting and moisture levels, so even if your thumb's not the greenest, you can still find success.

Linnea and Tarren Wolfe of Vancouver, British Columbia, decided to design a home grower after watching their kids gobble up sunflower and pea-shoot microgreens "like potato chips."

Their Urban Cultivator looks like a wine refrigerator. It comes as a free-standing unit, topped with a butcher block, or it can be installed under the counter and hooked up like a dishwasher. The company offers an extensive seed selection, but anything from your local garden center will grow. (urbancultivator.net)

The indoor garden trend is part of an expanding movement, says New York landscape architect Janice Parker.

"The technology of these kits simplifies hydroponic gardening at its best, and makes it available to all," she says. You don't need a yard, or favorable weather.

"What a pleasure to have fresh herbs, flowers and vegetables, and experience a connection to nature no matter where you are," Parker says.

She thinks these kits shouldn't just be relegated to the kitchen.

"I'd put them anywhere -- dining room tables and coffee tables come to mind. Or in 'dead' spaces that have no light or interest," she says.

Miracle Gro's line of Aerogarden indoor planters includes the Sprout, which is about the size of a coffee maker and suitable for herbs, as well as a larger model in which you could grow just about anything. Pre-packaged seed pods of lettuces, cherry tomatoes, herb blends and petunias come ready to pop in the planter. An LCD control panel helps adjust lighting and watering needs. (bit.ly/2xdKHZE )

Click & Grow's planter is compact. It has room for three plants, and an integrated LED light pole and special lightweight soil are included. The planter comes in white, gray or beige. There's a walnut wood case available for the herb model. (clickandgrow.com)

LA Farms' vertical garden would make a vibrant addition to a sunny kitchen or sunroom. A circulating pump brings a soothing burble of water up and through the tower-shaped planter.

So what to grow in it, if you're a novice?

"Leafy greens such as arugula, kale and butter lettuce, and herbs such as parsley, cilantro, thyme and oregano prove to be easiest for indoor growing," says LA Farms' founder, Wendy Goodman, of Los Angeles.

Bringing a garden inside the kitchen - NWAOnline

Eight weeks ago, The Sunroom opened in Clintonville at 3337 N. High St. Owned and operated by Suzanne Riska and Chloe Crites, the eco-conscious boutique houses a wide variety of goods from womens clothes, to candles, to handmade jewelry, to macram planters.

Both Riska and Crites have backgrounds in retail, having worked for bigger companies. Bothered by the lack of transparency about where the goods came from, they teamed up to launch an open, honest company that is completely upfront about where they get their goods. Apart from one line from a small company in France, all of their clothes are made in the U.S. Everything in their store is ethically made, and Riska and Crites are ready and eager to tell their customers about it. In addition to their clothes, The Sunroom also carries Stockholm shoes, One Six Five jewelry, and fair-trade home goods from the U.S., Mexico, Guatemala, India, and Morocco.

Riska and Crites acknowledge their clothes are not fast fashion and are therefore priced a little higher than one might find on a clearance rack at a chain retailer. Their clothes are handmade by designers and are more sustainable and durable. Riska and Crites strive to stay true to why they opened The Sunroom to offer ethically made goods. Within that goal, theyre retail inclusive, meaning they do not cater to a specific body type. Instead of being a Big & Tall or Plus or Petite store, The Sunroom offers all shapes and sizes of clothing.

The store is a welcomed addition to their Clintonville location. They have hosted and participated in a number of workshops, such as how to make a macram planter, and are looking forward to hosting a variety of other workshops. Riska and Crites hope to someday have a bigger space that will allow them more room for workshops, as well as offer the opportunity to expand their clothes into mens and childrens.

Build This Dreamy Sunroom Addition And Take Advantage Of Life

When you build a sunroom addition this big,it gives you the opportunity to cash in on maximum resale value in the future. This particular design is one of our favorite home extension plans. We like it because the outside rendering came out really well and the interior 3D rendering is also beautiful.

This ultra-spacious sunroom features 9 massive windows with tempered glass, so that the windows themselves can be almost as large as the ceiling height in the room.

In addition to the huge windows, you also have a gorgeous double French door which completes this well designed sunroom. The flooring for this sunroom plan was chosen to be tile and if you look at the interior rendering you will notice two love seats, one rocking chair, one chaise lounge, one recliner, two end tables, one ottoman, and an electric guitar. The only reason we mentioned all the furniture in the room is because we want you to really notice how much more stuff you could put into this sun room addition.

This large sunroom was factored with the extension of HVAC ductwork, which would run underneath in the crawl space foundation. All these factors are in the estimated cost to build below.

Premier Four Seasons Sunroom Addition 20 x 18

An addition to the back of their Keswick home brings year-round enjoyment for the whole family

Every morning, you'll find Sandra and Joe Da Costa perched on a bar stool, enjoying a freshly brewed cup of coffee and taking in the panoramic landscape. The stunning view is new for them and is all thanks to their brand new sunroom addition and its dramatically large windows on three sides of the space.

The idea for the sunroom began about 18 months ago with the couple contemplating a three-season addition. During the planning stages, it changed to become a room that they could enjoy the entire year, with heating, air conditioning and a stunning floor-to-ceiling gas fireplace.

Although handy, the Da Costas knew they wanted to hire someone to complete this ambitious plan and found Alair Homes Aurora a premium custom-home builder in York Region. With Alairs expertise and attention to detail, the Da Costas idea quickly started to take shape, and in four months the sunroom project was complete.

Now that the paint has dried, the windows have all been installed and the heated floor is turned on, the Da Costas have added approximately 350 square feet to their home and have successfully turned their old deck into a bright, contemporary space that their whole family can enjoy.

AURORA The citys landmark commission on Aug. 17 granted certificates of appropriateness, which will allow renovations at three historic district homes.

One of the homes is known by many longtime Aurorans as"the Green Monster." It is the large Queen Anne-style home at 50 S. Chillicothe Road, which has a new owner. It acquired its nickname because of its exterior green paint.

The other structures are located at 432 Eggleston Road and 270 S. Chillicothe Road.

"The Green Monster" eventually might not be green anymore, since new owner Helen Peterson announced she is considering repainting it a blue-gray color with white trim.

The home was built in 1898 and was owned by Willis J. Eldridge, a cheese merchant, in its early years. More recently, it was owned by former City Councilwoman Marcia Colombo and her husband Donald.

Architect George Clemens outlined plans to convert a screened porch in the back into a sunroom, replace some windows and add some railings around the front porch to closer match the houses original look.

Meanwhile, exterior alterations and additions were approved for the Eggleston Road home now owned by Robert and Charlotte Emrick and historically known as the Chauncey Eggleston house. He was one of Auroras early settlers.

Eggleston, a member of the Ohio Senate from 1830-33, built the federal-style brick and stone house in 1831 after he moved to Aurora from Connecticut in 1807. It sets on a 14-acre parcel.

The Emricks plan an addition to the existing garage, adding a breezeway between the house and existing garage and a dormer and building a detached barn/workshop behind the house and garage.

Landmark panel chairman Jeff Clark commended the Emricks for their desire to improve the historic property.

The third certificate of appropriateness was granted to Isaac Pennock for his South Chillicothe Road home. He plans to replace 13 of 21 windows in the house because they are deteriorating.

In another matter, panelist John Kudley, president of the Aurora Historical Society, announced the dedication of an Ohio Historic Marker focusing on the Geauga Lake area will be Sept. 17 at 3 p.m. at the Geauga Lake Improvement Associations lakeside property on Route 43 across from East Boulevard.

The public is welcome to attend the dedication.
