Home Builder Developer - Interior Renovation and Design

As baby boomers born between 1946 and 1964 continue to age, the U.S. Census Bureau predicts that people over the age of 65 will outnumber those under the age of 18 as soon as 2034. To address the needs of this rapidly growing population, AARP encourages its members to carefully consider ways to make their homes places where they can comfortably and safely age in place.

These kinds of upgrades can start with simple things like installing task lighting in kitchens to accommodate fading eyesight and multi-height countertops to allow people of all abilities to both stand and sit while working in the kitchen, investing in nonslip tiles and grab bars in bathrooms, and relocating select electrical outlets to be 18-inches to 24-inches high, up from the more typical 12 inches off the floor to make them more accessible. Bigger changes can include enlarged doorways to allow for wheelchair access or a walker and adding ramps to eliminate stairs.

Dr. Rodney Harrell, the vice president for Family, Home and Community at AARP, says intentional planning to create an ideal space to age in place can be started at any time.

When were not planning ahead we need to react quickly, said Dr. Harrell, who added that the best homes integrate universal design elements that can accommodate life for aging, but also unexpected illness, injury or disability. The vast majority of people want to stay in their homes as they age, and most homes in this country arent designed to allow that to happen.

There are a growing number of resources that can help in this planning process.

AARP recently introduced HomeFit, a free augmented reality app on iOS that can scan a room and suggest improvements to help turn a house into a lifelong home, free from safety and mobility risks. It is an extension of the organizations extensive HomeFit Guide, which is available online.

There are also certified aging-in-place specialists, a wide range of professionals including remodelers, designers, architects and occupational therapists, who can recommend modifications to help people live independently in their home. This designation was developed in 2002 by the National Association of Home Builders in collaboration with AARP and other experts. Specialists can be searched by state at nahb.org, which offers a three-day certification program.

Even the smallest safety updates can potentially be lifesaving.

Ted Porter, a co-chair for the Design for Aging Committee for the New York City chapter of the American Institute of Architects says the process of making an apartment or home aging-friendly can be relatively easy, inexpensive and done gradually over time.

After what has been the most miserable spring known to man, were finally due some nicer (and more importantly, drier) weather edging into June or so say meteorologists.

With indoor socialising back on the cards, you might be considering making changes in your home to give it a new lease of life for summer. After all, if youve spent the past year working and living there, youre probably craving a reset.

But without forking out loads on major renovations, how can you give your interiors an upgrade? We asked interior designers and home stylists for their top tips.

1. Switch to lightweight textiles

If your home is full of dark and heavy textiles (like that thick grey fleece blanket strewn over your sofa) it might be time to invest in some lighter weight ones.

You can do this by changing your throws, cushions and bed linen to lighter and fresher fabric, such as linen or bamboo, says Katie Thomas, founder of interior design company KTM Design. She also recommends changing heavy winter curtains to sheer curtains to let the light in and allow air circulation.

2. Bring in natural pieces

Switching up home accessories is a cheap and cheerful way of bringing some newness and those much-needed summer vibes to your home. Thomas recommends opting for accessories made from natural materials such as wicker, rattan, linen, jute and light wood.

3. Mess with mirrors

Mirrors are a great way to make rooms feel brighter, especially if positioned well, says Sarah-Jayne Garman, an interior designer and founder of Revamp. If your room doesnt include a mirror, get one on the wall.

For added light, hang your mirror directly opposite the window, says Garman the room will feel much bigger and spacious if you do! Or, she says, if you have a console table in the hallway, add a mirror above it. For a bit of creativity, group various mirrors together on one wall.

4. Freshen things up with flowers and plants

Another cheap option for livening up your home is to bring in flowers and plants. Vases filled with summer blooms will enhance a room and fill it with a lovely scent, says Rebecca Dupere, of Dupere Design. And if you prefer to leave the flowers in their place outside, silk flowers are a good, eco-friendly substitute.

5. Update your doorknobs

One way to give old furnishings a new lease of life like kitchen cupboards, old fitted wardrobes and chest of drawers is to replace the handles on them.

Use light-coloured materials that nicely accompany the bright summer days and nights, advises Marc Husband, product design lead at Leader Doors. Dont be afraid to play around with materials that remind you of your favourite summer locations, for instance, stones and shells from the beach.

Dont have any handles to replace? Try replacing hardware like white plastic sockets and switches with trendier versions in brass or black, instead.

6. Hang up your pictures

If youve got a pile of framed prints that have been gathering dust, nows the time to hang them up products like Command strips can be useful for hanging artwork if you live in rented accommodation.

British designer Benjii Lewis loves a gallery wall with a vibrant backdrop. An assortment of artwork in a variety of mediums works brilliantly on an accent wall, says Lewis, founder of Zoom That Room.

When you plan your gallery wall, lay the items you wish to hang on the floor and figure out what works best where. If the frames dont match it doesnt matter, adds the designer. Think about mixing an antique oil painting with a pair of contemporary prints, a set of watercolours and a textile, he advises.

7. Light it up

Lighting can be a fairly inexpensive way to liven up a room the simplest act of changing a ceiling light or lampshade can make a massive difference.

Select light shades with designs such as pastel shades, natural materials (rattan, bamboo) and tropical motifs, says Jamie Moxey, a design consultant for lighting company Dusk. Fixing shades to compatible ceiling lights can help shift the feel of the room, particularly when finished with matching accessories such as a pastel throw or a decorative wooden bowl for the coffee table.

For the outdoors, invest in some festoon lights to instantly give your garden that festival feel.

8. Move your furniture around

The most inexpensive tip of all is to simply work with what youve got. Athina Bluff, founder of Topology Interiors, explains: A small shift in the position of furniture can have a huge impact on the way you use and enjoy the space.

If you havent already, she recommends pulling your furniture away from the walls. We have a tendency to put everything up against a wall but sometimes creating a flow of movement around a sofa in the centre of a room can transform a space, she says.

9. Play with colour

Whether its painting a wall, some old furniture or home accessories that need a new lease of life, experimenting with colour can bring a fresh yet daring approach to your interiors, says designer Benjii Lewis. He recommends a bold choice of blending pistachio with soft pink, turquoise, lilac and yellow sorbet.

The trick with a pastel colour palette is to work on colour tones and be unafraid of including a little clash here and there soft red works brilliantly with dusty pink for example, he says. For the less daring, use pastel colours as accents only scheme a grey room with interesting textures and then accessorise with duck egg blue cushions or add a lavender velvet armchair.

10. Change up those curtains (and cushions)

Replacing cushions and/or curtains is a great way to update a room youre bored of looking at. Adele Shotton-Pugh, interior designer at Terrys, says curtains can change the feel of a space, particularly if you introduce colour or pattern. By changing up your window treatments, youre able to inject some personality into a room, without having to overhaul the entire dcor and therefore blow the budget, she says.

Her advice is to look for patterns that complement the existing dcor, whilst choosing something new that will make an impact. Florals and botanical prints are having a real moment in the interiors world right now and are sure to completely change the feel of your space, she says.

11. Try self-adhesive flooring

If your bathroom or kitchen tiles are looking a little lacklustre, Shotton-Pugh nods to shops like Homebase and B&Q, which sell a huge selection of self-adhesive floor tiles these are both low cost and easy to use.

By simply peeling and sticking, youre able to completely transform the look of a space without having to break the budget, or make a mess, she says.

12. Declutter

Clutter can make a room feel small, so spend time paring back your kitchen worktops and decluttering your home. Jenna Choate and Mariana Ugarte, co-founders of Interior Fox, recommend stowing away used chopping boards, tired looking utensils and too many cookbooks. Instead, they advise placing out a select few cookery books and adding a vase of your favourite foliage.

Melissa Bodie, co-founder of Melissa + Miller Interiors, suggests curating items carefully throughout your home. One of the best ways to feel the home is fresh is by editing as in, donating your items. Try to have an editorial eye when it comes to removing pieces. If it doesnt make you happy, its time to give it to someone for whom it will.

13. Give your grouting a refresh

Mouldy or discoloured grouting instantly makes a room look unclean. If yours is in a state, Dave Gordon, general manager and DIY expert at SGS Engineering, recommends investing in a grout pen (these only cost around 5).

Scrub at your existing grouting with a warm cloth and some washing up liquid, he says. Wipe the tiles down and ensure everything is dry. Apply your grout pen take your time. If you make a mistake, wipe it away quickly. Apply two coats if needed.

Paramount Group has tapped Kohn Pedersen Fox for an extensive modernization of the lobby and public atrium at 60 Wall Street in Manhattans Financial District. The project is envisioned as a requisite improvement to attract top-tier commercial tenants looking to base and build their future offices within the building.

The 47-story office tower was completed in 1989 and comprises 1.6 million square feet. Designed by Kevin Roche John Dinkeloo & Associates, the structures two-story atrium features marble grids, mirrored ceilings, palm trees, and other postmodern embellishments not representative of modern interior aesthetics.

Architectural renderings reveal new triple-height windows, the addition of a skylight to facilitate the flow of natural light into the atrium, and installation of what will be the largest indoor green wall in North America. Elegant white and tan marbling with be installed throughout the lobby and atrium with designer light fixtures and recessed LED lighting at the foot and pinnacle of supporting columns. The scope of work also includes the addition of a new restaurant and caf.

Existing access to the 2 and 3 subway lines at Wall Street Station will be flanked by the lush living wall with the new dining spaces above.

By opening up the atrium, infusing it with greenery, bringing in natural light, and visually uniting the two streets, we aim to bring the people of this neighborhood together where hopefully they will share ideas and chart the path to the future, said Kohn Pedersen Fox Design principal Hugh Trumbull, AIA.

As it stands, the building is already in compliance with LEED Gold sustainable standards for a high-rise building, and features the largest solar photovoltaic array in Manhattan on its roof. Additional improvements to the office floors include enhanced ventilation systems that utilize high-efficiency MERV-15 filtration and an increased flow of outside air into the building.

Situated in a neighborhood rich with restaurants and transit options, the building further appeals to tenants employee pool, said Albert Behler, Paramount chairman, CEO, and president. The repositioning will transform 60 Wall Street, providing tenants with the benefits of a new building and the opportunity to create an office that best suits their unique needs.

Ana Pelayo Connery, USA TODAY's "Home" magazine Published 12:34 p.m. ET May 20, 2021 | Updated 12:57 p.m. ET May 20, 2021

Tired of that empty backyard? We've got you covered with these tips. USA TODAY

After stay-at-home orders took effect last year, homeowners began making their way toward their patios, porches, backyards and balconies any spot where they could extend their living space while enjoying fresh air and privacy. As a result, outdoor spaces became oases gardens were planted, hammocks were hung and patio furniture was set up to mimic the look of indoor rooms.

It was the year of the outdoors, and Im sure it will continue into 2021, says Mary Maydan, principal of Maydan Architects in Palo Alto, Calif. In a way, COVID has changed outdoor living. Everyone is noticing how much they want their outdoors to be appealing and connecting. A lot of experiences that until now weve mostly had inside have moved outside. With restaurants restricting indoor dining and many entertainment venues closed, the backyard is now a way of going out.

Tara L. Paige, a mom of two living in Dallas, says when the pandemic hit, her attention immediately drifted to theoutdoors, in part because she needed a break from having her entire family home around the clock. With everything halted, I decided to tackle the patio as a way to get outside of our four walls.

Sprucing up her outdoor space was something shed been meaning to do, but never seemed to have the chance until the pandemic gave her the gift of time. We bought our 9-acre forever home last year, in part because it had a beautiful front porch, a side patio and a back patio, she says. Suddenly, I had all the time in the world to make the most of it.

In April 2020, Paiges new hobby inspired her to launch the Black Women Who Love Outdoor Living Spaces Facebook group as a way to document her progress and connect with like-minded women. In just a couple of months, the page had more than 200,000 followers. Soon after, she launched The Patio Chic, a website where she and other outdoor enthusiasts share makeover and DIY projects for their balconies, decks, sheds and other exterior spaces.

Paiges first pandemic project involved spray-painting an old patio set and adding new cushions. A can of spray paint is like pixie dust for DIYers, she says. You can spray-paint something and give it an entirely new look even if you dont want to go through the process of sanding and scraping. Its easy.

Think of an outdoor lounge area in the same way you would think about your indoor spaces.

The key to making the most of any outdoor space, she says, is to make it feel like home. Think of an outdoor lounge area in the same way you would think about your indoor spaces, Paige says. From pillows to lighting, its the details that make the space comfortable. Even indoor pillows can be sprayed down with Scotchgard, so they become water-resistant. Just make sure you flip cushions over regularly to prevent (insect) nesting and fading.

You're finally ready to host that party: Should you ask guests about their vaccine status?

More: Getting back to simple summertime fun without pests

She also recommends anchoring your outdoor lounge or dining space with a rug, just like youd do indoors. Im not a fan of plastic rugs because theyre so lightweight that the wind just blows them, so I use a regular rug and just spray it down with a fabric protector.

Having the right lighting is also important. It really sets the mood, Paige says. Im a huge fan of solar lighting because it gives the right amount of glow at night, so you can still see people and move around. I even have a solar chandelier hanging from a tree over my outdoor table.

Another simple way to take your outdoor space to the next level is to think about the sounds youd like to hear when youre outside. Consider adding a soothing water feature like a fountain. Its a pretty inexpensive way to add another layer to your outdoor space, Paige says. For podcast and music lovers, outdoor speakers with Bluetooth technology make it easy to listen while outdoors.

As high-impact as simple changes can be, some homeowners have chosen to tackle bigger projects that require construction. Among the most popular are outdoor kitchens. Were not just talking about space to grill, but also space for a sink and a stove, basically everything but a dishwasher, Maydan says. Its like people are thinking about how to move their whole lives outside.

Gardens and greenhouses have also gained popularity, with some retailers reporting record sales last year. Its not the first time Americans have turned to Mother Earth to help them get through a crisis. During World War I and World War II, Victory Gardens sprouted because of food shortages. Today, the pandemic has morphed the farm-to-table movement into the yard-to-table movement, with vegetable gardens sprouting in yards everywhere. Its a way to connect with nature, be creative and deal with stress, too, says Paige. Gardening is also a great activity for all ages, providing a way to bond with loved ones.

For those living in regions with a wide range of temperatures, greenhouses make year-round gardening possible. People think of them as a warm place, so why not create a heated sitting area as a way to get you outside during the winter, Maydan says.

Record sales of patio heaters and fire pits mean more people than ever are enjoying the night skies. One thing I like to do is create multiple areas for different activities, so you might have a sitting area with a fire pit for smores in one corner and a reading nook or stargazing spot in another, Paige says.

Wherever you have sitting areas, Maydan says its important to have easy access to them. Try using steppingstones to make a path, she says.

When it comes to adding trees, shrubs and flowers, look at the areas where you might want privacy or shade year-round and plant accordingly. This way youll always have privacy, comfort and something beautiful to look at.

Whether you decide to make changes that are big, small or something in between, theres never been a better time to make the most of your outdoor

space.

How to make the most of your outdoor space - USA TODAY

Chesterfield Sports Association along with some of the largest volleyball and basketball clubs in the St. Louis region and local sports complex developer, Mia Rose Holding, are uniting to bring a state-of-the-art indoor volleyball and basketball complex to St. Louis. The multi-court, 97,000-square-foot fieldhouse has received zoning approval in Chesterfield Valley on Eatherton Road near St. Louis Premium Outlets.

As the largest youth volleyball and basketball facility in St. Louis, it will attract an estimated 900,000 visitors each year to its clinics, camps, leagues and tournaments. More than 1,000 athletes will practice, train and play games there each week. Construction will begin this Fall 2021 and the target opening is September 2022.

Chesterfield Sports Association (CSA), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, will own andoperate the facility, which will fill a major need for court space in St. Louis.

This is much more than an athletic center, it is a life center and a place these young athletes can call home, said Stuart Duncan, Director at Chesterfield Sports Association. Along with giving young basketball and volleyball athletes a location to play their sports, our mission is to offer them a place to gain confidence, trust, self-esteem and good health.

The primary tenants and partners are:

Missouri Phenom Basketball has a heavy focus on the development of youth both on the court and off, said Brittany Carter, Regional Coordinator at Missouri Phenom Basketball. We pride ourselves on building character and leadership from the grassroots level. This facility will allow us to have a space to call our ownand continue to grow not only the Phenom Family, but the community as well.

Nine basketball courts like the one shown in the photo, left, will convert to 18 volleyball courts and be equipped with Olympic level flooring, professional grade LED lighting and HD/4K streaming cameras. Additional amenities include a fitness area; multipurpose rooms for team rooms, meetings, and classes; comfortable spectator seating courtside and from a second-floor mezzanine; lounge areas and concessions. The architect is mw Weber Architects. The general contractor is Keystone Construction Company and the civil engineer is Stock & Associates Consulting Engineers, Inc.

The fieldhouse will offer the full range of youth sport services and amenities to develop student athletes to meet their fullest potential. CSA plans to work with local organizations to offer community health and wellness programs and will partner with physical therapists and orthopedic specialists to assist with athletes conditioning and training.

We have a rich sports history in St. Louis with great facilities for professional athletes, but we are one of the worst large cities for indoor youth facilities, said Scott Mebruer, Club Director at High Performance STL Volleyball Club. This is the only facility in the St. Louis region that is going to be built from the ground up, meant and purposefully built for young athletes in these sports. Every other facility was something else, never with the purpose of it being for volleyball or basketball. This is going to be powerful in how it impacts many individuals beyond our sports clubs.

While 80% of available court time will be used by the current primary partners, over 10,000 hours of court time is available per year. CSA is in talks with potential major university partners and other organizations to offer daytime programming. Chesterfield Sports Association is seeking partners and donors who are dedicated to growing and supporting youth athletics in St. Louis in exchange for facility naming opportunities and other recognition. In addition to hosting volleyball and basketball clinics, camps, leagues and tournaments, the facility could be used for pickleball, futsal, wrestling, dance, cheer and other sports as space is available.

This sports complex will be a center of recreation, community life and economic activity. St. Louis will finally get the world-class youth sporting facility it deserves, said Tom Kaimain, Founding Principal of Mia Rose Holdings (MRH). I am honored to be part of this amazing coalition of sporting organizations and to help bring this incredibly important vision to reality for Chesterfield and St. Louis. In addition to multi-family and mixed-use developments, MRH has a strong niche developing and consulting for athletic facilities, including the Maryville University Hockey Center in Chesterfield Valley. This expertise grew out of Kaimans professional hockey career.

Most indoor basketball and volleyball facilities in St. Louis are operated by private and public schools and municipal governments. These facilities have significant limitations and liability concerns for hosting outside players and organizations, which has only increased during the coronavirus pandemic. None of the larger existing indoor court facilities was designed for volleyball and basketball, and many are 30 to 40 years old with failing infrastructure, poor ventilation systems, insufficient lighting, substandard flooring, insufficient seating and inadequate dimensions for safe and enjoyable play.

Due to the lack of safe and adequate facilities locally, local basketball and volleyball clubs currently must use multiple locations to meet their needs and tournament organizers turn to bigger venues in other Midwestern cities. In fact, Gateway Region Volleyball, the local chapter of USA Volleyball, has needed to move several large weekend events from local facilities to Cape Girardeaus new 12-court facility over two hours away.

The lack of local and quality facilities creates unnecessary obstacles and lost opportunities for local tournament organizers and businesses, as well as for players and their families who must travel out of town to participate, said Duncan. This new facility will alleviate that burden for athlete families.

A major economic driver, the sports complex will generate jobs for coaches, referees, trainers, concession and maintenance workers, and will bring local and out-of-town guests to the area to generate economic activity for local restaurants, hotels and retail establishments. CSA is purchasing land for potential future expansion.
