Connectivity is king this home-buying season (BPT) – The spring home-buying season is just around the corner and that means people are busy making improvements to get their homes ready to sell. These days, home upgrades are increasingly focused on one key feature: connectivity. In 2019, buyers want smart homes they can easily control from anywhere. From smart HVAC and sprinkler systems to connected garage door openers, it’s all about creating convenience and comfort.

Security gets connected Security systems are nothing new, but the technology used to arm those systems is changing rapidly. More and more home security companies now offer fully connected systems that allow users to protect and monitor their homes from any smart device. Whether it’s a live video feed, the ability to lock and unlock doors remotely or just checking that all sensors are working properly, integrated security systems offer peace of mind. Having the infrastructure in place can be a selling point for buyers who want to make sure their new home is as safe as possible, given they’ll only have to set up the monitoring subscription upon move-in.

Updated garages add value According to Remodeling Magazine’s 2019 Cost vs. Value survey, a garage door replacement is the number one home improvement project in terms of return on investment. But these days, more homeowners are taking it a step further and installing new technology to make the garage more user

friendly. For example, the SilentMax Connect garage door opener from The Genie Company comes with Aladdin Connect technology built-in to improve convenience and functionality. Not only is the opener super quiet - ideal for attached garages - but the connectivity features allow you to check whether your garage door is open or closed, grant individual access with virtual keys, instantly know when someone is operating your garage door (authorized or not), and provide a log of when each opener was used - all from your phone or smart device. Thanks to this technology, you can open the garage door remotely for delivery people, a housekeeper or for your child coming home from school. Considering your garage is one of the most accessed points in your home, this functionality is a great security feature and proves that garages offer more than just storage space. With the right connectivity tools and features, they can provide convenience that will be attractive to future owners.

Save energy, increase comfort As home improvement trends go, increased connectivity is rivaled only by the desire for more energy-efficient homes. Smart thermostats accomplish both these aims and can increase the value of your home in the process. Smart thermostats let you easily control the temperature in your home from any connected device. You can set a daily schedule for your heater, adjust the temperature in individual rooms or let the system program itself based on your usage history. For energy-conscious buyers, this

kind of technology provides a way of living that’s as aspirational as it is attainable.

Lighting the way Smart lighting has turned from a novelty to a practical tool as products have gotten more advanced. Programmable lighting allows you to schedule when your lights will come on, turn on and off lights remotely or change the lighting to improve aesthetics. With a smart lighting system, you’ll never have to get out of bed to turn the lights off downstairs, and you can always come home to a fully lit house, boosting your sense of security. With these kinds of applications, your home’s lighting can go from a ‘given’ to a must-have, attracting buyers like a moth to a flame. New, smart products are hitting the market every day. For homeowners savvy enough to incorporate this new technology into their homes, they’ll not only be more connected, but they’ll likely see more offers rolling in when it comes time to sell.

Questions and Answers QUESTION: My grandfather received a gift of a cigarette/cigar lighter made by S. T. Dupont. It still is in its period box and has never been used. The bottom of the lighter is marked “S. T. Dupont / PARIS / MADE IN FRANCE / 20u / 198048.” The “gold” lighter case features alternating horizontal lines of dots and vertical dashes. The blank end of the flip top is not engraved. Any help you can provide would be great. – LB, State College, PA, Email Question. ANSWER: Simon Tissot-Dupont, who had served as a photographer for Napoleon III, founded S. T. Dupont in the second half of the nineteenth century. Initially, S. T. Dupont made travel bags and cases for wealthy aristocrats, businessmen, diplomats, and royalty. The company became a supplier to Les Grands Magazins du Louvre in 1884. Following World War I, Simon’s son assumed management of S. T. Dupont. He expanded the company and hired skilled artisans, craftsmen, and designers. The Cartier Boutique on Fifth Avenue, New York, was the primary American outlet for S. T. Dupont bags and cases. At the request of the Maharajah of Patiala, S. T. Dupont began manufacturing lighters in the late 1940s. Building upon the fame of its solid gold lighters, S. T. Dupont soon became a leading manufacturer of cigar accessories. In the 1950s and 1960s, S. T. Dupont used celebrity licensing to promote a line of pens. S. T. Dupont continues to manufacture luxury accessories. See: www.st-dupont.com.

Since your lighter does not contain a karat mark, I am assuming it is gold plated. The retail price for modern S. T. Dupont gold plated lighters starts at $200.00 and goes up from there. Limited edition, karat gold lighters command in the low thousands with some vintage examples exceeding $8,000.00. WorthPoint.com has more than 5,000 listings for S. T. Dupont lighters. I reviewed most of them. Although I did not find an exact match for your lighter, I found numerous comparable examples. A fair retail secondary market value for your S. T. Dupont lighter is between $125.00 and $150.00. Finding the “right” buyer may result in a slightly higher return. QUESTION: I have a collection of eight postcards with images of boxers on the front. Boxers include Jack Dempsey, Tommy Gibbons from St. Paul, Minnesota, and Willie Green from Chicago, Illinois. The back of the postcard contains a short bio and the boxer’s records. Can you tell me what decade they are from and what value they might have? – GL, Reading, PA, Email Question ANSWER: When doing appraisal clinics, I sometimes jokingly say: “The key to being a good appraiser is to take time to look at the wording and marks on an object.” In the case of your boxing cards, the back of the Jack Dempsey card is marked “Copyright 1923 by Ex. Supply Co.” and the back of the Tommy Gibbons card is marked “Copyright 1921 by Ex. Supply Co., Chgo.” Based on this

information, you boxing postcards date from the early 1920s. The Exhibit Supply Company of Chicago is well known to arcade card collectors. George Vrechek’s “A look back helps understand Exhibit Supply cards” in the September 25, 2017 issue of “Sports Collectors Digest” (www.sportscollectorsdigest.com/exhibit-supply-company-cards/) provides a detailed history of the company. The Exhibit Supply Company (ESCO) was founded in 1901. In 1907, J. (John) Frank Meyer, owner of Meyer Printing Company, gained control of ESCO. Within a short period of time, the Exhibit Supply Company, which supplied cards that initially sold for 1/2 cent each for use in arcade vending machines, had over 275 employees. In addition to printing the cards, ESCO developed arcade machines to dispense them. ESCOs earliest arcade cards were “art models.” In the 1920s, a new series of cards featuring baseball players, boxers, movie stars, and additional art models were issued every 30 days. While baseball players, boxers, and movie star cards sold in penny arcade machines, art model cards were found in nickel machines. Some early arcade cards had postcard backs. The first baseball player and boxing arcade cards were produced in 1921. According to Vrechek, ESCO “kept at it for another 58 years issuing cards of football players, boxers, wrestlers, sports champions as well as movie starts, art models, radio stars, TV stars, cowboys, Indians, automobiles, planes, fortunes, love letters and

other subjects.” [Author’s Aside: In the early to mid-1950s, I haunted the boardwalk penny arcades of Seaside Heights, New Jersey. I still have a stack of ESCO arcade cards I purchased. I confess it includes a number of art model cards, hardly risqué by modern standards, which I did not share with my parents.] Many arcade cards were pasted into scrapbooks. When removed incorrectly, a portion of the information on the back is destroyed, either remaining along with the paste on the scrapbook page or by large chunks of paste still attached to the card’s corners. When this occurs, as in the case of your cards, the value is impacted negatively. In order to create demand, ESCO often changed out the poses of sports stars. Over half a dozen Jack Dempsey images were used. WorthPoint. com has a listing for the 1923 Jack Dempsey ESCO arcade card that sold on eBay on May 26, 2018 for $19.95. The back was not damaged. Given the condition of your cards, a realistic secondary market prices is around $5.00 each. If you plan to sell them, I suggest selling them as a set. Ask $50.00, a “set” value as opposed to a single card value. QUESTION: I own a copy of Don Warning’s “Memories of Santa Collection” published by Christmas Reproductions, Inc., in 1992. What is its value? – SK, Wheeler, MI, Email Question ...continued on next page

MAR

2019

ANTIQUES ANSWER: The memories of Don Warning’s Memories of Santa figurines are fading. Secondary market prices for these figurines continue to decline and are likely to do so into the future. According to information found on http://memoriesofsanta.biz, Don Warning used the inspiration from chocolate molds, early chromolithographs, and early 20th century postcards to create his line of Memories of Santa figurines. The figurines trace the evolution of St. Nicholas into today’s Santa Claus. The Memories of Santa collection, first introduced in 1983, included 139 earthenware, hand-painted Santas. Some were copied by other companies or changed slightly. The collection series ended in 2003. The line was supplemented by books, collector plates, posters, trading cards, and other memorabilia. Although the memory of the Memories of Santa Collection is fading, the subject matter still attracts some collectors. Your book represents a checklist for figures made between 1983 and 1992. When the book appears on eBay, it sells through if priced for less than $10.00. Figurines, even with period boxes, now sell in the

$4.00 to $6.00 range. Dealer asking prices are higher, based on the image appeal as opposed to the collection association. QUESTION: I have a collection of World War II “Life” magazines that I inherited from my great uncle. There are a lot of them, some slightly damaged by an itinerant racoon that found its way into the attic. The January 1945 issue features Patton on the cover. My late step father-inlaw served with Patton in Sicily and the invasion of the Continent. I still have his uniform with the bronze star Patton pinned to it. What should I do with the collection? – GN, OH, Email Question. ANSWER: Putting aside the issue of damage, the first thing you need to do is put the magazines in chronological order. The goal is to determine if you have a run of six months or longer. In the past, these magazines sold because (1) the image on the cover, (2) the advertising inside [ripped out and sold as magazine tear sheets], or (3) a birthday week gift [gifting a family member, relative, or friend with a magazine issued the week they were born]. Time is the enemy of all three.

Interest in the individuals who appeared on the covers or cover themes has faded. Covers that once sold for over $25.00, now command $10.00 or less. Using framed magazine tear sheets as a home decorating décor is long past its prime. Again, many of the images and subjects are no longer remembered by the current generations. Finally, individuals born during the time period are rapidly decreasing in number. I have no interest in obtaining a copy of a magazine issued during the week of September 28 and October 4, 1941, my birth week. If someone offered you fifty cents a magazine for the lot, my advice is to take it. You can checkout out each issue on eBay to see what the asking price is. If you have access to an eBay seller, my recommendation is to list your examples at half the current asking prices. If your collection is typical, the majority of the value will rest with 10 percent or less of the magazines. You may wish to sell these and donate the balance to a charitable white elephant sale.

Are your home and your wallet prepared for the inevitable? (BPT) – Nobody bats an eyelash when it comes to buying homeowner’s insurance, but many homeowners don’t apply that same logic to planning for home repairs - not what might happen, but what will happen. Only a fraction of the 120 million U.S. households today are protected by a home services plan, also known as a home warranty. That number is growing, as homeowners recognize the value of coverage when appliances go on the fritz, hot water heaters run cold in the middle of winter or a leaky faucet drives up their water bill. Perhaps one reason more homeowners don’t have home service plans is because they think they are covered through their homeowner’s insurance policy. Homeowner’s insurance doesn’t protect you from the natural home aging process. Insurance kicks in when damage occurs from an outside force, like a busted sewer line or roof damage due to a major storm. While insurance covers you when Mother Nature strikes, it doesn’t protect you from

the natural wear and tear that your home’s major systems and appliances go through during the aging process. Understanding how home service plans work and how they fit into your financial and risk-planning strategy allows you to be prepared for covered breakdowns, without breaking the bank. Let’s start at the beginning. What is a home service plan? Home service plans typically cover the repair or replacement of major home appliances, including refrigerators, washers, dryers, ovens or cooktops, and components of major systems like plumbing, HVAC and electrical. When your air conditioning system breaks, or your washer or dryer stops spinning, you want the confidence of having a home services plan in place that will help protect your budget. This is where the true value of a home service plan comes in. Home service providers such as American Home Shield accept service requests and assign professionals to diagnose

the problem and offer a solution through its vast network of skilled and trusted contractors, which includes more than 15,000 licensed and qualified pros throughout all 50 states. What’s the bottom line? With a home service plan, you won’t pay the full cost of repairing or replacing items covered by your plan. Regardless of age, make or model, your contract helps cover the repair or replacement of items covered in your plan. For example, if your refrigerator malfunctions, your service provider will connect you to a quality contractor to diagnose and repair the problem. This can help reduce the hassle of repairing it yourself and help protect your budget. Think about your home’s future (and yours).

Service plans can come in handy when selling a home. The appeal speaks for itself: When buyers are making that final decision around one of the biggest investments in their lives, having a home service plan in place gives the new homeowner confidence that the home’s systems and appliances are protected, and they won’t bear the entire financial impact of repairing or replacing it if it breaks down. The choice seems obvious: Don’t fall victim to the financial risks and mental stresses associated with owning a home. Appliances have set lifespans, breakdowns are inevitable and repairs and replacements are costly. Make sure your home is covered, so you and your wallet can rest assured that your home is taken care of.

Get ready: Early spring landscaping tips During the cold months of winter, many people stare longingly out of the window dreaming of spring and time spent outdoors. For those with green thumbs, images of tending to the garden and other aspects of their landscapes no doubt dominate such daydreams. Draw inspiration from those budding crocuses and daffodils pushing through the last remnants of snow and employ these tips to prepare for the upcoming gardening season. • One of the first steps is to apply a preemergent weed killer to get a head start knocking out weeds that can plague the lawn during the growing season. Killing weeds at the roots early on can mean far fewer hassles in spring and summer, and may prevent new generations of weeds from cropping up each year. • While it may be tempting to take a prematurely warm day as a sign that spring is in full force and purchase a bunch of annuals, it’s better to know the last of the possible frost dates (check “The Farmer’s Almanac”); otherwise, you may waste time and money planting flowers or vegetables only to have them zapped by another frosty day. • Amend the soil so that it is the right consistency — just crumbling when lifting it. Soil that is too muddy after spring thaw can harden, making it difficult for plants to flourish later on. Speak with representatives at a local lawn and garden center about

which types of amendments you can add to the soil in your particular area to enrich it. • Lawn and garden experts at The Home Depot suggest filling in bare patches of lawn now by mixing a few shovelfuls of soil with grass seed. Then apply this patch to the bare areas, water, and continue to care for the area until the spot fills in. • Spend a day in the garage or shed tending to the lawn mower and other gardening equipment. Clean all tools and ensure that everything works, repairing parts as needed. • Give outdoor entertaining spaces a good scrubbing, clearing away dirt and grime that may have accumulated over the winter. Use a leaf blower to blow away any leftover leaves. • Check if the front porch, railings or decking need painting and/ or staining. Tackle these projects when the weather is cooler so everything will be ready for those peak spring days. • Think about any annuals you might want to plant in the landscape this year that will complement any existing shrubbery or perennials. Come up with a theme so that the entire yard is cohesive. Before homeowners know it, winter is gone and it is time to once again enjoy long days spent outdoors. Get a jump start on spring lawn prep as soon as you can.

Top 10 value-enhancing home improvement projects for older homes (BPT) – Do you own an older home, and are you looking to make upgrades that matter? Strategic enhancements not only increase a property’s resale value, but also its functionality. This is particularly important among young homebuyers. Sixtyeight percent of millennial homebuyers reported buyer’s remorse, according to a Bank of the West survey. Today’s high home prices in cities across the country mean that many millennials are buying older homes rather than newly built ones. Shortly after the purchase, these homebuyers feel disappointed with the dated features of their homes, unsure what and where to renovate. If you feel you’ve settled for your home, or perhaps you love the older property but want to give it a face-lift, here are some leading home-improvement projects for older homes: Technology additions: Smart-home features are frequently requested in new construction. Fortunately, your older home can become a smart home too when you implement technology, such as home automation. Thanks to WiFi, there’s no need for clumsy and costly rewiring. Smart thermostats, smart music and programmable lighting are prime examples. Tankless water heaters: Tankless water heaters are ideal for older homes because they are easy to install, take up much less space and can reduce energy costs by as much as 60 percent. Because they heat water on demand, you never have to

worry about running out of hot water. What’s more, longer warranties than what can be found with traditional storage-tank water heaters are now available. Check out the new 25-year warranty from Noritz on select tankless water heaters. Wall removal: Removing a wall between the kitchen and living room can enhance the functionality of the area and provide a modern open concept design. Cutouts in walls are another option if the wall cannot be completely removed. Remember to ensure any wall is not load-bearing before removal, so you don’t impact the structural integrity of the home. Popcorn ceilings: Once upon a time, popcorn ceilings were the top trend installed in every house. Today, they distract the eye and make a home look old. Consider hiring someone to redo your ceilings or research how to scrape it yourself. Leave flat or add a knock-down texture, which is a popular modern drywall finishing technique. New paint/wallpaper: That ‘70s pea-green paint in the bathroom and the ‘80s floral wallpaper in the bedroom instantly date your home. By updating the walls, your house will feel more modern and you can customize to your personal tastes. Dedicate a weekend to painting the walls in your favorite spaces and you’ll be amazed at the transformation. Painting old grout: After years and sometimes decades, grout in bathrooms and kitchen spaces really takes a beating and turns a dirty color that’s

impossible to clean. It can be timeconsuming and tedious to replace grout, so to get a fresh look consider painting it instead. Specialty grout paint makes the process simple with easy application features that simply roll on. Update hardware: Hardware throughout a home gets dingy and dated. To update a space without an overhaul, simply change out the hardware. Cabinet knobs, drawer handles, towel racks and more in a modern metallic hue can make a space feel fresh again without much investment. Don’t forget about air registers, which can also impact the visual appeal of a space. Energy-efficient insulation: There are many modern insulation options available today that weren’t around when older homes were built, and many of those homes have little to no

insulation at all. In addition to insulation, remember to seal spaces for air loss, such as air ducts, doors, windows, pipe inlets and the attic. Embrace the history: Be sure to research the history of the home and neighborhood. Would pulling out that original wood built-in be a detriment to the home’s authenticity and value? Perhaps you can hire someone to update the original wood flooring, so it has the modern stain tone you like, but the planks still maintain the home’s original luster. Light fixtures: Light-fixture styles change through the years and can make your home appear older than necessary. Replacements can make a world of difference. For example, replace an old brass chandelier with a modern pendant design. Not only will it be a style update, but the light output can make the space more usable.

5 quick home fixes to rest easy

All Your Home Needs! (BPT) – Ongoing, routine upkeep is important to ensure the house stays running. While it may seem easier to put off tasks for a later date, checking off some smaller chores now can help avoid incidents or costly repairs later. “Home maintenance can be easy to overlook when the day-to-day gets busy, but it is important to always make time for safety-related tasks,” said Tarsila Wey, director of marketing for First Alert. “Simple steps such as installing and maintaining carbon monoxide alarms only take a few minutes, and are crucial to keep loved ones safe from the deadly gas.” Amp up your home safety with the following quick tips: 1. Invest in light timers. Installing light timers for lights inside and outside your house can give the appearance of being home, whether you’re

away on vacation or you’ve stepped out for the night. Timers only take minutes to install and can make a world of difference when viewed from the street. By using a light timer instead of leaving a light or two on when away, you can save energy and money while still deterring any potential thieves. 2. Clean the gutters. With the end of winter storms come outside chores, and clearing out your gutters is important to keep your home safe. If the gutters are too full, your home can suffer from water damage to the roof and water can pour over the gutters, putting other parts of your home at risk. While you are checking the gutters, inspect your shingles to make sure they are still in good shape. This can help prevent future leakage during a spring shower. 3. Install carbon monoxide alarms.

silent killer,” carbon monoxide (CO) is an odorless and colorless gas, making it impossible to detect without a CO alarm. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) estimates there are more than 80,000 incidents per year. The most important step is to have CO alarms in your home - and enough of them. CO alarms should be installed on every level of the home, including the basement, and in all bedrooms or sleeping areas. CO alarms should be batterypowered or hardwired with battery back-up. First Alert offers a variety of alarms to help ensure your family is protected, including a tabletop alarm with a 10-year sealed battery and digital display to see detected levels in parts per million. 4. Store valuables. Having a safe at home can prove a wise investment when it comes to natural disasters. Through fire or flood, a safe can help protect important documents, family photos and keepsakes, as well as jewelry and other valuables. For the ultimate protection, look for a safe that is both fire resistant and waterproof (not just water “resistant”). Be sure to stow the combination in a secure place and share it only with trusted family members and friends. 5. Establish a family emergency plan. Knowing and practicing - what to do in the event of an emergency is important. Ensuring loved ones are prepared for a fire, and know to call 911 and where to meet outside the home, is crucial. Other incidents may occur as well when you need to be prepared to stay in the home, such as a natural disaster or power outage. Having a plan in place for what to do if such an event occurs, and knowing where in the home is the safest location, can be critical if an incident occurs.

Quick and simple ways to make a front door pop Visitors’ impressions of a home are often dictated by the home’s entryway. Must as one may judge a book by its cover, the same can be said about the impression that a front door and entryway can create, regardless of how accurate that impression is. Making certain changes to an entryway can go a long way toward improving curb appeal. Entryways also can set the scene for a home’s interior. Whether one chooses to be classic or bold, modern or traditional, there are various ways to quickly transform a home’s entryway. • Bold front door color: Color can dramatically enhance an entryway. Painting an existing door or replacing it with a more vivid option can do the trick. The DIY Network says certain colors stand out as favorites. These include turquoise, yellow, red, indigo, orange, and black. The door color should complement the other shades of the home, such as those on siding and trim.

• Custom walkway: Guide guests right to the front door with an attractive (and safe) walkway. Stamped concrete or decorative paver blocks may fit the bill. This walkway can extend to the street or to the driveway. • Contain plants. Landscaping around the entryway should be neat and well-tended. Overgrown plants or shrubbery may give off an air of neglect. Container plants and carefully curated shrubs can create a neat and inviting aura. • Highlight the address. Make sure the home can be found easily with bold and decorative house numbers. Consider two different address signs: one illuminated and easily viewed from the curb, and another closer to the front door.

• Utilize high-end materials. The relatively small area of real estate by the front door enables homeowners to splurge on more opulent materials that can really add a feeling of luxury. These can include colorful tiles, ornate planters, decorative wooden doors, or elaborate knobs and lighting fixtures. • Add architectural details. Find out which architectural elements will meld with the style of the home and then incorporate them. Moldings, columns, shutters, and trim are areas to consider. The entryway to a home garners a lot of attention. Homeowners can enhance their spaces with entryways that really make a statement.

How many times have you sat on the sofa pouring over a home magazine wishing your rooms could be ripped from its pages? Some people are gifted with a natural talent to impart a space with perfectly balanced colors and schemes that fit with one’s lifestyle and design preferences. Others are not as equipped. But that doesn’t mean design has to suffer. An interior designer with knowledge and resources who’s in your corner can make all the difference. Many people are hesitant to bring in professional designers because of cost. But contrary to popular belief, working with an interior decorator is not something reserved for the rich and famous. Designers actually can save homeowners money in the long run. A good designer will choose the right amount of high-quality elements that will be durable and timeless. This means less money will ultimately be spent on replacing cheap materials or redesigning rooms that have gone out of style. According to the design experts at Homepolish, utilizing a designer to transform a space can create rooms that are more in tune and balanced

with homeowners’ needs — helping to improve mood and functionality. That can extend to other areas of a person’s life and well-being. Putting the task of designing a home’s interior in someone else’s hands frees up time to focus on other projects as well. Designers can look at a space with a careful eye and not be influenced by items that have sentimental attachment. He or she can help decide if anything should be repurposed or removed. Plus, an interior designer can help homeowners stay on budget. Designers also can serve as liaisons for clients who have difficulty communicating with builders and architects. Designers are trained to think about things that homeowners tend to overlook, such as placement of lighting, outlets and room flow. He or she also likely has contacts within the industry that can be utilized, saving even more time and money. A good designer can be worth the investment. The end results will be an interior that homeowners will be proud to call home.

Trend Watch: 2019 outdoor living and design trends for every homeowner (BPT) – Outdoor living continues to grow in 2019 as homeowners dream of adding spaces that provide tranquility, connection and touches of nature. More than just a home enhancement, these spaces are meant to inspire people to set digital devices aside and find moments of calm while making memories with friends and family. Now is the perfect time to plan updates to outdoor living areas so as the seasons turn, you’re ready to enjoy your outdoor space to the fullest. Joe Raboine, director of residen-

tial hardscapes at Belgard, offers his expert insight into top outdoor design trends of the year that you should consider for your home.

Blurring of indoor and outdoor areas Beyond windows and patio doors, home designs are truly blending indoor and outdoor areas thanks to features like folding walls and collapsible screens. For example, imagine a family room that opens up completely to an outdoor patio for easy entertaining, made possible by retractable walls

plus smart lighting and strategic heating and cooling sources for seasonal comfort. These types of integrated spaces make the backyard a one-of-akind extension of the home.

Clean lines and contemporary style Modern lines are a top interior design trend and it is expanding into outdoor living spaces, offering a seamless visual transition. Contemporary style with clean lines, textures and shapes have taken over more traditional styles, particularly among younger homeowners. Modular, largeformat pavers embrace this trend and are expected to continue to increase in popularity, with smoother textures gaining traction.

Monochromatic and “greige” tones The contemporary trend also leans toward monochromatic color schemes. Gray continues to be

popular, with the growing trend of “greige” - blends of gray and beige tones - poised to take off in 2019. These muted hues blend seamlessly with the landscape, plus they allow homeowners to use strategic pops of color with furniture and flowers to create customized spaces that reflect their personalities perfectly.

Outdoor kitchens and fire features In an effort to make outdoor spaces an authentic extension of the home, livability is a priority. That means outdoor kitchens and fire features continue to be a top trend. Kitchen additions like pizza ovens are reflective of the foodie movement, while fire features using gas fuel rather than wood are reflective of the desire for convenience, plus they are a good fit for many municipal regulations. ...continued on next page

Sustainability is king As more homeowners are prioritizing green living, outdoor designs that become a part of the local ecosystem are in high demand. This could include planting to support pollinators and integrating edible landscape into the design. Water features are growing in popularity, used to add a tranquil element to outdoor spaces while masking unwanted sounds, such as traffic or other noise pollution.

Visualization of designs Partnering with the right designer is key to achieving the outdoor space of your dreams. More homeowners are asking for 3D designs in order to properly conceptualize a space before it is brought to life through construction. Belgard Design Studio can take a simple sketch with dimen-

sions and a few photos and turn it into a 3D rendering or virtual reality experience so homeowners can see the true potential of their outdoor space.

Small footprint designs Outdoor living isn’t just for homeowners with large properties. Houses with small footprints are adding impressive outdoor spaces in surprising places. This could be maximizing alleyway access, adding a courtyard to a small backyard, or shifting the focus by utilizing the front yard to create a patio and fireplace area. If you long for an outdoor living space, don’t let space constraints limit your dreams. These 2019 outdoor living trends, in effect, will prove to create a year full of innovative outdoor projects that fit the needs of every homeowner.
