WHAT ARE CAISSONS?

The ceiling plays a vital role in the design of an interior. Recently, the tendency to use regular plasterboard ceilings is disappearing; instead, alternative creative options are breaking through. The caisson style is one of the most interesting ways to decorate high ceilings in various interiors. Caissons are indents or niches in the ceiling created by docking beams. Caissons take on various forms; however, the most common options are square or rectangular. When planning to cover the ceiling with caissons, prepare yourself for the loss of 1025 cm from the height of the interior.

THE CLASSIC WOODEN CAISSONS The most natural and effective option is a wooden caisson ceiling. The ceiling has to take into account the layout of furniture, amount of lighting, and the colour of the wood or paint.

WOOD + MDF The technical aspects of constructing this type of ceiling is very similar to those deal-

ing with the classic wooden caissons with one difference: certain elements will be made of MDF instead of wood. Although MDF is less valuable and not as natural as wood, its technical characteristics are paramount while the cost is loyal. In addition, even an expert will have a hard time distinguishing MDF from real wood when looking at the ceiling.

CAISSONS FROM DRYWALL AND MOULDING

Another unexpected option which is surprisingly easy to construct is caissons that are on a diagonal with reference to the walls in the interior. This method is often incorporated when laying parquet boards and tiles, thus, it can be analogously used in the design of a ceiling.

CONTRASTING COLOURS

This option is the most financially friendly but the most difficult to create. With the correct approach and wise use of polyurethane mouldings, you can achieve an amazing result! The ceiling will look no worse than one made of more expensive material.

CHOOSING THE STYLE When choosing a style for the caisson ceiling, do not limit yourself to the classical option. Modern alternatives such as the loft or minimalism styles will adequately and effectively compliment an artistic ceiling. The main concept here is to use the simplest profile and laconic forms, adjusted to the furniture in the interior.

CAISSONS ON THE DIAGONAL

A caisson ceiling has the tendency to be slightly indented, usually 10-15 cm. To enhance the aesthetic aspects of the ceiling, you can paint the beams in different colours. This way, the ceiling will become more interesting. The main idea is to pay attention to the lighting so that you can properly choose where to apply dark paints. As you can see, the caisson is a versatile element of the design of ceilings. A palace, modern apartment, and home can all benefit from your creativity. Ensure that you properly incorporate materials, colours, and methods of processing. Furthermore, do not forget that as much as you may dislike this fact, but caissons are not suitable for low ceilings.

THE RUG -

FASHION AND STYLE BRIGHT MULTI-COLOURED MOSAICS If you are not afraid of experimenting and love bright colours, then this type of rug is for you. It is very cheerful and attractive. The multi-coloured design will bring positivity and vibrant colours into your home. Furthermore, you no longer have the need to match a specific colour in your other textiles as you will have the freedom to incorporate five, seven, or even ten different colours – as many as your rug displays.

BLACK AND WHITE RUGS Although black and white are merely colours, it is worthwhile to separate rugs made in this combination into their own category. Such rugs are original and universal; hence, they can be used for a wide range of purposes. They can be monophonic or decorated with large or small ornaments, plant or animal themes, or simply geometric repetition of lines. In any case, a black and white rug is always suitable.

Besides possessing pleasant tactile qualities and being a keeper of warmth, the rug must become an integral aspect of an interior’s design. Rugs, like other decorative accessories, have fashion trends. ORNAMENT AND GREY-BROWN SCALE With time, the so-called American style along with all of its attributes is obtaining increasing popularity. The highly conservative and neutral grey-brown combination effectively compliments any interior. An ornament design, whether it has simple geometric patterns or complex layouts, is suitable for any room organized under a variety of themes.

AN ANCIENT EFFECT Today, the textile industry is so developed that we rarely encounter a truly worn out entity. The ancient effect is hand-made and new articles remind one of antique rugs due to their physical appearance – they seem worn in places and have different colours and heights in specific areas. This is the result of the delicate work of professionals. This effect is especially successful in combination with deliberately new products that radiate luxury and abundance.

ANIMAL SKINS Animal skins or rugs that imitate them are widely used. Especially popular are the skins of bears, zebras, cows, and tigers. If you find this type of rug attractive, place it in a visible area so that no furniture blocks its beauty. It is best to situate them in the living room or office. Without doubt, trends and styles constantly change; however, if your rug is effectively harmonized with the interior, it will not lose its attractiveness for many years.

ALL ABOUT HOME

TRANSPARENT FURNITURE The invention of transparent furniture sparked a revolution in the world of interior design. In recent years, designers are just about scrambling for new ways to craft masterpieces from transparent materials. As it turns out, transparent materials bring new life to common furniture we are so used to seeing! Chairs, recliners, tables, shelves, and consoles are just a few ways that transparent materials can make a home more fresh and stylish than ever before!

It was not too long ago that the dream of transparent furniture could be realized only through the use of glass. Thanks to recent technological progressions, however, new alternatives suitable for creating transparent

furniture have emerged. One such material is Plexiglas. Its breakthrough in the interior design industry has shattered the price and weight of comparable glass transparent furniture. Furthermore, Plexiglas is far more malleable than regular glass; it can assume the form of practically anything - a perfect fit for creative designers! Besides its unique and fashionable look, transparent furniture is also praised for its versatility. This furniture disregards the stylistic aspects of the environment it is put into, simply because it fits into every environment! Classical, fusion, minimalism, hi-tech and many other styles go hand in hand with transparent objects. The colour scheme of the interior also does not matter, since transparency is not a colour. This fact is able to tell us that transparent objects simply cannot disrupt the colouristic harmony of your room. In fact, it can only strengthen this harmony if the interior is colourful. Transparent furniture is the salvation for small apartments! With the ability to see through the objects, your furniture is virtually absent. Therefore, it does not appear to steal any space from your room. In short, the transparent furniture is apparent only as an apparition.

What can a Vase be Filled With? Do empty vases irritate the eye? Contemplating over what you can put in a vase? Try using dry decorative flowers – they look great in glass and crystal vases. For aromatic sachets, use vases in the form of a large dish or cup whereas for a composition of branches, it is best to use a traditional flower vase. The dry decorative flowers are also great for vases made of water-fearing materials, such as wood.

A SWEET DÉCOR Vases for candy are creative decorations not only for the dinner table but also for a coffee table or a stand in the lobby. This

vase should not be too small (to ensure that the sweets do not end quickly), nor should it be unstable as it is usually situated in areas of common access. An ideal model would contain numerous com-

partments so that you can place a variety of candy or nuts.

A VASE FOR FRUITS WITH TIERS The main difference between a vase for fruit and a vase for candy is size; the vase for fruit must be large enough to contain at least four apples. Generally, the form of this type of vase is oval or round. Furthermore, the vase is often raised using one or several legs with a stand. For a holiday table, it is effective to use a vase with tiers. When filling the vase, follow the rule “heavy on the bottom, light on the top.” In other words, oranges, bananas, and pears would occupy the lower plate whereas strawberries, apricots, and prunes would occupy the top plate.

A VASE FOR JAM A vase for jam greatly resembles a vase for candy; however, the main difference is not even in size but rather in the lid (so that the jam does not form a dry crust near the surface). An ideal vase would have a notch designated for a spoon.

Investments in the Pre-Construction condo market of Toronto are currently at a record-breaking summit that has never been reached throughout the history of its existence. New projects entering the market are being rapidly sold out. Seemingly, developers effectively take advantage of the situation and raise prices from project to project. Investors, having foreseen the situation that awaits us in 2018-2019 in which we will witness a very low amount of project completions, are even buying out apartments that are usually in meagre demand even after completion of construction. I will not expand on the reasons behind this circumstance as you can find this information in the archives of my articles on www.remlis.ca or on the website of the magazine Property and Finance Guide where I regularly update the section regarding Condo Apartments in Toronto. I will just mention that this is a repercussion of the condo-apartment crisis in 2012-2013 when a low demand caused developers difficulties in establishing a sufficient amount of new projects. In the first part of this year we saw builders gain the tendency to increase the deposit when signing the contract. Last year, it was not uncommon for the deposit to be 10% of the price of the apartment at VIP sales; however, this year, we can only dream of such incentives. The 20% deposit became a norm and in some cases, builders request 25%. Very rarely is it possible to buy with a 15% deposit. Furthermore, in the past, developers tried to save a certain amount of units in order to sell them for a higher price after project completion. Now they try to quickly sell all units in the project. This is due to the banks toughening conditions for financing builders; it is much easier to finance completely sold-out

projects where apartments were sold with 20% deposits. The government is evidently unsatisfied with the rapid increase in the price of real estate. The key interest rate – which is an effective governing tool – will not likely be increased in the near future as it is intertwined with the profit and the economy of the country as a whole. Subsequently, one of the effective leverages for the real estate market is the toughening of the conditions under which builders receive financing. Developers pass this on to investors which will cause the profit of investment deals to drop; this should in theory prevent prices from rising. In reality, we have the opposite effect; investors raise prices when reselling contracts in an attempt to maintain previous levels of profit while burdening extra costs on the end buyers. As a result, prices increase even faster. The municipal governments are interested in urbanization in the GTA; high-rise buildings are much more profitable for the government. Less money is spent on developing roads, communications, and new territories while the budget receives very good profit from development charges (developers must contribute a certain amount to the city’s budget for every apartment built). It is now more difficult to get financing if you are self-employed and stricter qualifications for requesting a credit have been instilled last year. This has oriented many potential buyers towards condo-apartments rather than houses and there is no doubt that this trend will continue. The difference between prices for detached homes and condo-apartments has reached an absolute maximum. According to analysts, in the near future, the market of condo-apartments will win back its position. In his recent speech, Donald Trump declared that he considers the condo market of Toronto underrated and sees great potential for prosperity. The prices for apartments in downtown Toronto have increased by an average 6-7% over a year, according to statistics. In reality, some areas have increased by 10% or more.

e-mail: aahtoronto@gmail.com

The most significant rise in prices, as predicted, occurred in the Southeast part of downtown. In the near future, this area will be beyond recognition; it is experiencing active construction of office buildings, restoration of historical sites, and development of new roads. In the past year, this area has acquired ambitious condo projects (Axiom, East 55, and Sixty Colborne) which were sold out instantly. Currently, there are two projects in this area that are in the VIP stage: East United and 158 Front. Developers were planning an official opening of these projects in September-October; however, the project is selling so rapidly that by the time the official opening occurs, there will be a very low amount of units remaining unsold. The Southwest part of downtown (from Spadina Ave to Liberty Village east to west and south of Adelaide St West) is also sufficiently increasing in price. Exactly a year ago, we were selling the project Garrison Point in this area and in the spring, there were sales for the project Minto West Side for which the prices for apartments are history. On average, the price of the area increased by 10%. On August 11, we will start VIP sales for the project One Eleven and in the fall, another phase of the Garrison Point project is expected. Furthermore, sales have not yet begun for a very interesting project called Rosedale on Bloor which is located in an area exposed to price raises along Bloor St, east of Yonge St. This project was scheduled to open in March of this year but was delayed. It is expected to go on sale in the very near future.

You can obtain information regarding these and other projects in the VIP stage on my site WWW.REMLIS.CA Also, under “I AM IN THE MEDIA” you can become familiar with my other publications. For your convenience, the site functions in both English and Russian.

Express Entry Way

- a new and real chance to immigrate to Canada

As of January 2015, Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) established a new electronic system called Express Entry to manage applications for permanent residence under certain economic immigration programs. Express Entry is not an immigration program in itself, but rather a system used by CIC to select candidates for immigration to Canada using the following economic immigration programs: • Federal Skilled Worker Program • Federal Skilled Trades Program • Canadian Experience Class

Complete an online Express Entry profile

• a portion of the Provincial Nominee Programs Anyone who is accepted into the Express Entry pool could get an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence. Rounds of invitations occur regularly over the course of each year. New release: there were already 11 draws for the last 6 months and more than 12,000 ITA were issued to candidates with 469 or more Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) points.

Our team will review your completed form and quickly let you know whether or not you may be qualified. If you are eligible, you can move on to the next step in the process. If not, you may strive to become eligible by improving your core human capital factors in areas such as your skills, work experience, language ability, and education credentials.

Candidates in the Express Entry pool who do not receive an ITA for permanent residence in Canada after 12 months may resubmit their profile and re-enter the pool if they still meet the criteria of at least one of the economic immigration programs. Due to the fact that there is no guarantee to receive an ITA, our Company offers to sign a Contract with a potential candidate in two steps with two separate payments: 1.

Sleep in Weightlessness Subsequently, ropes or metal chains are attached to the ceiling mounts. At the corners of the base of the bed, these ropes – or other types of support systems – are attached and fixed. Note that in this case, the bed will be able to sway freely. If the interior contains open ceiling beams, the anchors can be successfully mounted to them.

MOUNTING TO THE WALL If you are for whatever reason unsatisfied with ropes or chains, you can mount one side of the bed to the wall. To do this, you need to correctly choose the points for mounting and consider additional support systems.

A COMBINATION METHOD A method in which the bed is simultaneously attached to the ceiling, wall, and floor is the most secure option. Thus, it is more suitable for the children’s room. It is possible to construct a support system from the floor to the ceiling using the corners of the bed. Instead of the traditional rope suspensions, you can use decorative craved elements.

Suspended beds are subconsciously associated with a vacation in the fresh air where you can relax, slightly swaying and enjoying the surrounding view. Such constructions send us back to a carefree childhood when we could lay in a crib and not worry about anything. Today, there is such a large variety of suspended beds that it becomes possible to arrange a sleeping area in any building. Suspended constructions conserve space and create an original look in the interior if the bed is made according to an interest-

ing project and harmoniously corresponds to the style.

TYPES OF CONSTRUCTIONS Hammock-beds may have a circular or rectangular form, be single or double, or even a bunk bed. Rectangular beds require a heavier support system as compared to circular models. For this reason, it has to be mounted in a firm and durable manner.

MOUNTING TO THE CEILING When designing, it is extremely important to correctly account for the static load that will be applied by the hanging construction. Anchors that will be installed in the ceiling must be made from durable metal alloys that are capable of holding up the heavy weight of the bed.

e-mail: aahtoronto@gmail.com

An additional anchor, secured to the floor, can be situated in the center of the bed. This will help prevent the bed from swaying.

WHERE YOU CAN PLACE THE SUSPENDED BED The most suitable location for a hammockbed is a veranda or terrace. This is a wonderful opportunity to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature. Another option is to place the “bed swings” beside a pool. Imitating the Ancient Greek bed will enable you to escape into the historic past in a modern interior. In the children’s room, suspended models are great options for bunk-beds. They can be arranged similar to bunk-beds on a train. The children will definitely enjoy such sleeping accommodations.

Lighting The Way... A bright, welcoming, and airy atmosphere is the key to a welldesigned functional space. When natural light is limited, the proper light fixtures will function to illuminate the rooms while making an aesthetic statement. Rugs, fabrics, drapery, and furnishings need to be properly illuminated in order to bring out their beauty and create the desired ambiance in the room. After working on countless episodes of HGTVâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Income Property, many of which took place in basement apartments, I was always faced with the challenge of making the interior feel sunny and bright with the help of careful allocation of lighting. Introducing the right amount of fixtures and the proper combination of lighting sources allowed the spaces to shine both on and off camera. Creating lighting plans is vital to ensuring there is ample distribution of light in a space. At my design firm, we ensure that lighting becomes an essential component of the design package for every client, regardless of how small the budget is. In order for artificial lighting to give your interior the perfect look, feel, and luminance, you must not rely on only one lighting source; it takes tactful orientation of fixtures to create the proper ambiance in multiple functional zones. There are three essential types of lighting: Ambient, Task and Accent.

Ambient lighting is the general light source; typically this is your pot lights or a basic overhead light. Task lighting functions to illuminate a specific area or zone. Whether it is a desk lamp or under-cabinet lighting, this light source is targeted to meet your specific needs. Accent lighting is meant to focus on a specific subject or area. If used properly, this type of lighting can even create an optical illusion. Often, this type of lighting is used to highlight architectural

features and artwork in the interior. Furthermore, it is predominantly used outdoors to create an ambiance among landscaping.

with ample selections and outstanding technical knowledge is Royal Lighting.

In addition to their function, we often use light fixtures to add drama to a space. The pendant or chandelier can become the â&#x20AC;&#x153;wowâ&#x20AC;? factor which will leave a lasting impression for many rooms in your house.

1. Look for LED fixtures; these will stay cool and last much longer than your traditional bulbs.

Selecting the appropriate chandelier for your room takes careful consideration of scale and style. If you are stuck on where to go or what to choose, call in the experts! A few hours at the lighting store with a professional designer can shed a lot of light on your lighting dilemmas. A great go-to resource in Toronto

TIPS:

2. Dimmers are a great way to control lighting to set the right ambiance. Install them on all major light sources and pot lights. Lighting may appear simple but it takes the proper combination of fixtures to allow your spaces to shine. Explore your options and consider both functionality and aesthetics. Shed some beautiful light into your home!

MOSAIC:

A Tribute to Fashion or Tradition? coloured mosaics, you can create interesting designs on furniture such as chairs, countertops, or shelves. Depending on the desired effect, you can combine various forms, textures, and degrees of transparency and radiance.

MOSAICS IN THE BATHROOM The mosaic in the bathroom has to be first of all practical. The most common option for walls and ceilings is a glass mosaic which has a strong resistance to dirt, chemicals, and temperature changes. Smalt – also known as Cobalt glass – is more resistant to deterioration, thus, it is well suited for locations that are exposed to water such as the floor or interior of the bath and sink. In addition, you can even use the mosaic to cover all of the walls, create a panel or borders, or decorate the perimeter of the bathroom mirror.

In fact, it has been honoured with the title “beauty of all eras.” MOSAICS IN THE LIVING ROOM In the world of architecture and design, there are numerous materials intended to function as decorative accessories as well as protection of surfaces; however, only mosaics allow the creation of both simple ornaments and complex compositions while filling the home with an infinitely lively game of colours and lights. Even the atmosphere in the home becomes joyful!

ALL ABOUT HOME

In the living room – which has to be presentable to fulfill its purpose – the mosaic primarily functions as decoration. It can be a panel situated above a couch or fireplace; if the room is spacious, then an entire wall can be used. This kind of image will shimmer and glow in both natural and candle light. The play of tones will create an illusion of movement. Since the mosaic is a highly durable and heat-tolerable material which can endure temperatures ranging from 15°C to 145°C, it can be used to decorate the exterior of a fireplace. Furthermore, it can be used as a border beneath the ceiling or on the floor, and as a cover for columns, windows, sills, and niches. With the help of multi-

If you are short on monetary means but still desire to make the interior lively with the help of mosaics, you can leave spaces amongst plain tiles and fill them with colourful blocks. This way, the interior will obtain an interesting look! Decorating the bath with colourful tiles should be done carefully as it is easy to make the interior seem overwhelming. Fortunately, there is a solution! Large areas are covered in a monophonic material whereas colourful tiles may be used as highlights.

MOSAICS IN THE KITCHEN An ornamental panel made of dazzling or matte tiles will be an effective decoration for the backsplash above the sink or stove. To create an overall ensemble, you can incorporate mosaics in the dinner table, doors, or counter surfaces. By decorating your home with mosaics, you are paying tribute to both fashion and tradition while giving your home luxury and individuality.

The microwaveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unexpected abilities People use the microwave primarily to heat and prepare food; however, they have no idea about how this household accessory can simplify kitchen chores. Below are 12 alternate uses of the microwave that many people are simply unaware of.

The lemon will become juicier

Placing a lemon inside a microwave for 20 seconds is enough to make it juicier. Now it is possible to maximally squeeze its juice.

seconds. Followed by this, they should sit for 2 minutes prior to peeling. Attention!

Bread will become fresh

In order to make stale bread fresh, wrap it in a damp towel and place it in the microwave for 10 seconds. This process can be repeated several times until the bread reaches the desired fresh state.

Chips will become crunchy

Placing parsley and other various herbs in the microwave will create dry seasoning in mere seconds, without any chemicals.

If chips have lost their crunchiness, it is sufficient to place them on a towel in a microwave for several seconds to once again attain the crunch. The towel will absorb any dampness and the chips will return to their original state.

Greens will become a dry seasoning

Garlic will be easily peeled

Microwaving garlic for 15 seconds on maximum power will ease the peeling and cleaning process.

Fruits and tomatoes will be easily peeled

Peeling peaches and tomatoes will become much easier if placed in a microwave for 30

Fruits and vegetables should be handled in the microwave with extra care. The skin is a trap for steam which is why it is essential to poke the potatoes, tomatoes, and other products with a toothpick to avoid explosions.

The onion will no longer be able to make you tear up

Peeling the onion without crying is possible if you place it in a microwave for 30 seconds.

Honey will become liquid

If the honey has become crystallized, remove the lid and place the jar in the microwave for 2 minutes. The microwave must be set to half power. The honey will return to its liquid state.

The aroma will return

Place spices or nuts in the microwave for 15 seconds in order for the pleasant and natural aroma to return.

Delicious corn

Place un-peeled corn in the microwave for several minutes and peeling the corn will become easy. Furthermore, the corn itself will be gentle and sweet.

A quick breakfast

Do you need a quick breakfast? Simply mix eggs with milk and cheese in a bowl, add salt and pepper, and place in the microwave for 1-1.5 minutes.

The microwave will become clean

There is an easy method to clean the interior of the microwave. Simply place a bowl of water with vinegar in the microwave for 5 minutes. After this, any stains in the microwave will be easily removed by simply wiping them with a napkin.

They become carpet-like flower arrangements that can be used in decorative areas of the garden, in the front yard, and in areas where paths cross. The basis of the carpetlike flower beds consists of petite flowers with small petals or plants of a decorative nature. The highlights of a flower bed are usually large flowers with beautiful buds. Flower beds may also be arranged in an elongated rectangular shape. The width can be up to two meters while the length can be arbitrary. This arrangement can be one-sided or symmetrical and continuous or with breaks. It is typically arranged with two or three types of flowers, creating a simple ornament. You can often encounter them in front of houses, arbours, or along zones separating roads.
