Welcome to the 2023 BIA Parade of Homes!

According to the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC), approximately 80 people are expected to move to central Ohio every day, 365 days a year, for the next 25 years. I will save you the use of your smartphone calculator and tell you that it comes out to 726,000 people, or the equivalent of the City of Denver (population 715,000) being added throughout our region. Please make no mistake; the fact that people want to be in central Ohio and that we regularly hear about new economic development projects currently in our pipeline is a good thing. Moreover, growth is happening in more than just one community. News of Intel and related development in western Licking County is regularly in the media. Still, the reality is few areas throughout the central Ohio region aren’t seeing some form of growth that will ultimately change those communities.

This regional growth, combined with the need for housing at all price points and product types, is a significant factor in why the BIA’s Parade of Homes continues to evolve.

As we have done in the past few years, homes are located throughout the central Ohio region. This format is our way of showing that homes are available and open to consumers throughout the region. The Parade of Homes has always connected builders with home shoppers. This format allows our members to showcase more homes, more communities and at more price points when available inventory continues to be a concern.

This year, we are pleased to include “For Rent” properties in the Parade of Homes. This addition is a first for our organization and reflects a few things. First, we have fantastic builders developing in this market, and they deserve a chance to showcase their communities to the public. The second is the incredible demand in central Ohio in the “For Rent” sector, with occupancy rates hovering in the mid-90% range.

The builders that make up the BIA build a broad spectrum of homes, and we believe there is something for everyone in this year’s Parade.

In the pages of this guide, you will learn more about the properties in the Parade of Homes, our builders, and the great sponsors and companies that have contributed to making this tour free to the public. You can also learn more at biaparade.com.

As central Ohio continues to change, we aim to evolve with it and showcase the great work of the many hands that make up the residential construction industry in our region. We hope you enjoy the Parade and find a place you can call “home” for many years to come.

Long Weekends of Fun

12 Days to Explore

Navigating the Parade Inspiration

awaits

Buying a home is no easy task, but since 1943, the BIA Parade of Homes has provided a stress-free way for Ohio residents to find their dream home. This 12-day event showcases homes throughout central Ohio, with a wide range of communities to explore and an array of new home builds. Feeling anxious about how to navigate your way through so many delightful dwellings? Our Official Event Guide has all of the resources you’ll need to map out your quest for inspiration.

The 2023 Parade of Homes features 55 beautiful, brand-new homes crafted by 24 builders. The homes fall into multiple price points, ensuring that potential buyers can find an accommodating build for them. Beyond prices, the selection of homes encompasses a range of architectural styles, from luxury ranch homes to stunning contemporary styles.

New to this year’s Parade are multi-family homes. The decision to feature these homes provides insight into the city’s newest apartments, townhomes and other community living spaces.

Within each home is a a blue-ribbon feature, something unique that makes the new build stand out. Make sure to keep

an eye out for these as you stroll through your potential new home. For a closer look at houses with particularly alluring amenities, check out our fantastic features (starting on page 14).

With so many homes to visit, understanding where to target your search can be challenging. To give a clearer idea of where each home is located, the layout is divided into four quadrants: northeast, northwest, southeast and southwest. As you flip through the guide, you’ll find maps for each quadrant, giving the location of each house within the four quadrants. Accompanying these maps are helpful hints on how to best enjoy your time within the communities surrounding the homes.

The Parade also includes a featured development, Quarry Trails. The newest of Columbus’s Metro Parks, this development is a scenic getaway for those living around the area, and a perfect place to stop after a day of touring. Located in a formerly abandoned quarry, this new addition to Franklin County Metro Parks provides unique trails and observation areas, in addition to a 25-foot waterfall and multiple lakes. More information on this preserve can be found on page 10.

Having a Blast

Developing neighborhood and brand-new Metro Park occupy site of former quarry

In its 70-plus years of existence, the BIA Parade of Homes has featured a huge variety of different home types and living styles. But 2023 might mark the first time it’s featured an honest-to-God Metro Park.

That would be Quarry Trails Metro Park, the newest addition to Franklin County Metro Parks’ line-up. And although the park itself isn’t an official tour stop, it’s likely to get plenty of traffic when Parade visitors stop by the attached Quarry Trails community.

The official tour stops at a freestanding home, part of just the first phase of an ambitious partnership between the county and developer Thrive Companies. Its mission: to transform an area previously occupied by a quarry and an unsightly landfill into an impressive park and a – pardon the pun – thriving neighborhood.

The former is filled with attractions not commonly seen in the county’s other Metro Parks, including a mountain biking trail, a boat launch for canoes and

kayaks, a via ferrata for rock climbing, a dog park, and a waterfall that can get to be downright gargantuan under the right weather conditions. The latter has, in addition to the types of freestanding homes that will be part of the Parade, apartments, townhomes, retail space and a variety of its own community amenities – and, really, it’s just getting started.

“The Metro Park is our biggest sales pitch,” says Steve Bollinger, principal and executive vice president of development for Thrive.

10 2023 BIA Parade of Homes | BIAparade.com
FEATURE DEVELOPMENT

Those who choose to build in Quarry Trails have an expansive array of options and products available to them, says Bollinger. That includes hardwood flooring on the first floor and granite as the base material for countertops and suchlike spaces. Homeowners can have as many as five bedrooms on some sites, with a total of 11 floor plans available, as well as a sizable package of finishes and exterior palettes. Square footage ranges from 1,900 to 3,500.

“The architecture is different from what you mostly see in Columbus,” Bollinger says. “It’s kind of urban farmhouse meets the west.”

Highlights of the tour home, as well as Quarry Trails freestanding homes in general, include:

• Long kitchen islands

• Ten-foot, vaulted first-floor ceilings

• Built-in backyard grill stations

• Accordion doors

• En suite bathrooms and closets in the owner’s suites

• Attached garages

The large porches and positioning of the houses, which face each other, are intended to create a neighborly feel and encourage interaction, says Rudy Wesolek, partner and senior vice president of realty for Thrive.

“Here, you’re basically face to face with your neighbors,” Wesolek says.

The urban patio homes in the neighborhood at large have smaller backyards that pack in a lot, Bollinger says. Because homeowners are not responsible for landscape maintenance, Thrive expects the homes to be popular among empty-nesters as well as families. The density of the housing also sets the community apart in the Columbus area, Wesolek says.

“I can’t think of a development in Columbus, outside of the urban part of Columbus, that fits that many units in an area but still provides pretty luxurious living,” he says.

11 BIAparade.com | 2023 BIA Parade of Homes

Though the tour home is freestanding, Quarry Trails also incorporates onestory condominiums at Harris Flats and three-story attached condominiums at Perry Townhomes.

All that, of course, is in addition to the neighborhood’s proximity to the park – an unusual amenity in central Ohio, to be sure. Of the 220 developed acres in Quarry Trails, 180 are Metro Park, which means plenty of green space that homeowners don’t need to take care of.

“Some of the models that we’re going to have on display are basically in the park,” Wesolek says. “(The neighborhood) is almost encapsulated within the Metro Park.”

Just as Thrive benefits from the neighborhood’s proximity to the park, Metro Parks benefits from Thrive’s involvement. The utilities and infrastructure installed by the company have made it possible for the county to put in such features as the boat launch and via ferrata, Bollinger says –spending its money on those features

rather than, say, bathrooms, which Thrive is already handling.

“You can already see there are hundreds of people down there over the weekend,” Wesolek says.

Then there’s the retail space, which includes:

• A 10,000-square-foot spa;

• The Athletic, a gym that’s open to the public;

• Bada Bean Bada Booze – coffee shop in the morning, bar and gathering space in the evening, cleverly named 24 hours a day; and

• Playa Bowls, a soon-to-open space for acai bowls and smoothies.

The Athletic and Bada Bean Bada Booze are both operated by Thrive rather than by a third party, so they can be used for community events, as can the community space and pool that are available to both renters and homeowners.

The neighborhood is centrally located with easy access to Interstate 270 and U.S. Route 33, making it appealing for

those who live in farther-flung suburbs but want to downsize to a space closer to the action. Thrive expects the city of Columbus to connect the park’s bike paths all the way through to Downtown, which will further deepen residents’ connections to the city as a whole.

“The connectivity is strong,” Bollinger says. “(You’ll have) the ability to have the park at your fingertips.”

Thrive is building the community’s second phase now, and Parade visitors will be able to see the progress made there. The third phase breaks ground in summer 2024. The company also expects the park to be built out more, with an amphitheater and additional playground being considered. In addition to the freestanding homes, a unit in the Harris Flats – which offers one-story condominiums with extensive natural light, chef’s kitchens and balconies wired for TVs and ceilingmounted heaters – is expected to be open for the Parade’s opening party.

Across the Universe

Universal Design is a key component of senior apartments on this year’s tour

With multifamily offerings joining condominiums and single-family homes on the 2023 BIA Parade of Homes, visitors have the chance to check out a whole new set of features for these new-tothe-Parade communities.

And no builder in this year’s Parade has more multifamily homes to showcase than Treplus Communities. The company, which builds exclusively for the 55-and-over set, is showcasing three communities:

• Burr Oak Commons in Delaware

• Redbud Commons in Pickerington

• Sugar Maple Commons in Grove City Treplus is featuring its model – a twobedroom unit with a two-car garage – in each of the three communities, though all of them also offer one-bedroom units. Each model is 1,578 square feet.

“We say we’re redefining 55-plus living,” says Julie Ann Stein, vice president of marketing for Treplus. “It really is that resident experience that’s important.”

Universal Design

Every unit in Treplus communities has Universal Design-integrated. That’s a rarity in for-rent products, Stein says, but it’s important for Treplus as a way to support accessibility.

At its most basic level, Universal Design is the creation of an environment to ensure it can be used to its fullest by everyone who wishes to use it, regardless of any physical characteristics such as age, size, ability or disability.

In the Treplus communities on this year’s Parade map, that commitment to accessibility is reflected in spacious units with open floor plans and features including:

• Wider hallways

• Lever door handles

• Electrical outlets located higher on walls

• Accessible light switches

• A significant amount of task lighting and natural light

• Zero stop from the garage and porch into the home

• Zero-entry showers

• Towel racks that double as grab bars

• Slip-resistant surfaces

In addition, the models – like all Treplus units – are single-story.

Attached Garages

For newer single-family homes, attached garages are often a given. But they’re much less common in multifamily living, particularly in the central Ohio area, which is why Treplus emphasizes their presence in its communities.

“Ours are not only attached, they’re oversized as well,” says Stein.

That means plenty of storage space – no squeezing the car into the

15 BIAparade.com | 2023 BIA Parade of Homes

spaces for those residents who work

Community Programming

Part and parcel to the Treplus community experience, Stein says, is a rich programming calendar. That means happy hours, monthly meet-and-greets

for new residents and quarterly seasonal happenings – a Kentucky Derby party in the spring, an ice cream social in the summer, etc.

“We have something going on that meets the needs and interest of almost every person that lives in our communities,” she says.

That’s on top of everyday amenities conducive to social interaction, Stein says: Think community gardens, walking paths, dog parks, fitness centers, billiards rooms and clubhouses.

There are also smaller day-to-day events such as book clubs, poker nights, pool tournaments and cardio drumming. And while many senior living communities employ an activities director, those managed by Treplus have a lifestyles coordinator who puts residents in the driver’s seat.

Islands in the Stream

Memorable kitchen islands highlight Fischer Homes’ two Parade entries

Kitchen Islands

Though they’re different in a lot of ways, both homes have kitchen islands engineered to impress.

The Grove City island is surrounded by contrasting white kitchen cabinets of varying heights, as well as a reasonable amount of seating. It’s of an impressive enough size to make the whole space feel bigger, and connects the dining room space to the living room. But it’s the unique shape that really grabs the attention, Durham says.

“It’s not your typical square island,” she says. A hexagonal backsplash and ivory quartz countertops help to give the island some

Though Fischer Homes’ two entries in the 2023 BIA Parade of Homes are different in a lot of meaningful ways, they have at least one thing in common: kitchen islands that visitors will be talking about long after they leave.

Fischer’s contributions are both model homes. One, located in the Alton Place community in Hilliard, goes by the name Leland. The other, a patio home in Grove City’s Farmstead community, is called the Amelia.

Both homes are defined by copious amounts of natural light, which is a signature element for Fischer, says Madison Durham, assistant marketing manager for the company. In both cases here, it’s accomplished with large windows at the rear of the house.

“You can always tell that it’s a Fischer home from the back,” Durham says.

En Suite Master Bath

The owner’s suite in the Grove City home is equipped with an en suite bathroom sporting a unique – and uniquely colossal – luxury shower.

The rest of the bathroom follows along the same theme.

“It’s tiled all the way around with a bench seat, a double vanity sink (and) a great walk-in closet that actually leads into your laundry room,” Durham says.

The owner’s suite itself is built with a tray ceiling, as well as double doors that lead into the bathroom. The laundry room has its own door to the hallway and, because it’s next to the garage, it can also be used as a mudroom.

dimension as well, and a corner pantry sporting a frosted door with a buffet cabinet off to the side fills out the kitchen space. Meanwhile, the kitchen island in the Hilliard home, which comes in a more conventional square shape, is distinguished primarily by its size. Two rows of cabinetry are also arranged in a multi-height configuration, and the room is open to the family room space.

Stairs Worth Staring At

Spectacular switchback staircase is one of the most attention-grabbing aspects of Steele Group house

Since it served as the site of the 2019 BIA Parade of Homes, Evans Farm has consistently offered highlights during the Parade.

In 2021, it was the Featured Community. In 2022, it contained three Parade entries, including one of the Dream Homes, built by 3 Pillar Homes. And this year, it hosts another three Parade homes: one by the Steele Group and another two by 3 Pillar. With that history of memorable Parade homes and a deep commitment to the New Urbanism style – walkable streets, convenient amenities, accessible public spaces, a general emphasis on neighborhood connectivity – it should probably come as no surprise that the Steele Group’s 2023 Parade home in Evans Farm has a unique character that wouldn’t be seen in any other neighborhood. The neighborhood is, after all, the most prominent community in which the company builds.

Still, that home – the Steele Group’s Evans Farm model, which is in contract to sell after the Parade concludes this year – has the potential to grab the attention of visitors, even with so many other visually impressive homes in the vicinity.

“Our exterior designs are always unique,” says company President Jeff Steele. “Here in Evans Farm, every house is different, and that’s certainly true of ours; we don’t recycle old plans.”

The five-bedroom, four-and-a-halfbathroom house clocks in at 3,436 square feet.

Elaborate Staircase

The staircase is built to grab the attention, located in the corner just inside the front door. The switchback staircase is designed to be noticed, with a vaulted ceiling and an eye-catching chandelier.

“It’s the first thing you see when you walk in the door,” Steele says.

The open floor plan on the ground floor ensures that the staircase remains visible from multiple points – without detracting from other elements such as hardwood floors, two walls of windows and a designer accent wall.

“The TV wall is an accent wall with some floating shelves and other storage,” Steele says.

An office space is off to the other side of the entryway.

Then, of course, there’s the destination at the top of those stairs. The second floor has four of the house’s five bathrooms: two with en suite bathrooms, two sharing a Jack-and-Jill bath.

A red barn-style garage and a large wraparound porch with stained pillars and posts establishes expectations before visitors even set foot in the house.

Kitchen Design

The team at Steele Group expects visitors to leave talking about the kitchen, which is built to impress.

“It is a modern farmhouse design, and the kitchen is the main highlight of the home,” Steele says.

Where Home Begins™

Among the most memorable parts of the kitchen, he says, are:

• Custom, dark-stained cabinets

• Cambria quartz countertops

• Black accent colors

• A butler’s pantry

• A large island with a considerable amount of seating

• A 36-inch gas range

• Side-by-side refrigerator and freezer units

A dining room is just off the kitchen, with the home’s sizable screened porch connected to it as well.

Master Shower

The massive shower in the master suite doesn’t just have size and a high window for plenty of natural light going for it. It can also boast about the innovative shower glass design.

“Most of the time, we just do a clear shower glass,” Steele says. “(This one) has a grid pattern on it that is unique.”

Memorable light fixtures help the vanities stand out, while the closet right off the master bath is built with plenty of space. Garth Bishop is a contributing editor at CityScene Media Group. Feedback welcome at feedback@cityscenemediagroup.com.

Dream Come True

Longtime Parade of Homes attendee wins kitchen upgrade

Kristi Kouskouris was surprised when she got a call last fall saying she won the BIA Parade of Homes Scan to Win Contest sponsored by Cambria, Midwest Quartz and Worly.

“When they called me and said I won, I started laughing,” Kouskouris says.

“About 20 minutes later, I called back and I said, ‘Did you really call me? I’ve never won anything in my life!’”

She and her husband, Pat, had been planning to update their kitchen, but it wasn’t until she got the call mid-October that she finally saw it all come together.

“It was the catalyst that I really needed,” Kouskouris says.

With the help of the team at Midwest Quartz and Cambria, the couple were able to replace their busy, multi-colored countertops with Cambria’s Inverness Frost.

The subtle off-white veins – ranging in color from light gray to taupe –complement the cool-toned white background in a soft yet intentional way.

Once everything came together, it was finally time for Kouskouris to enjoy her creation.

“I was taking pictures, texting my friends, ‘Oh my God, it’s finally here!’” she says.

“I have a girl friend who works in the remodeling industry, and she just laughs

because I’m the woman who never can make a decision. She was like, ‘Oh my God, you finally did it!’”

No Reconstructing, No Regrets

Builders’ advice for newcomers to homebuilding

Building can be a daunting task. Brian Pol, director of marketing at Rockford Homes, and Kevin Yates, vice president of Manor Homes, both stress the importance of being informed and prepared when building a new home.

Starting grounds

One of the most important decisions that goes into buying a custom-built home is selecting the land on which your new house will sit.

A common misconception is that you need to find a real estate agent before getting started with a builder, Yates says.

“Experienced builders welcome clients with or without an agent and can facilitate a lot of the things people rely on realtors for, including helping with all the necessary paperwork,” he says.

Yates also disputes the myth that the building process cannot start until spring. Builders utilize common practices – such as sealing off and heating job sites before utilities are installed and adding calcium chloride to concrete so it is workable – in colder temperatures. He and Pol both say it is best to act quickly when you know where you want to settle.

“I’ve had some customers that have waited too long to make the decision to move forward,” Pol says. “They missed the homestead they wanted, they missed the neighborhood they could have gotten into. There’s been a substantial amount of price increases over the last 18 to 24 months. … If it’s time to move, there’s never a wrong time to find the right home.”

Future-proof foundation

Thinking about the future is paramount when making decisions about your floor plan and optimizing the space in your new home.

50 2023 BIA Parade of Homes | BIAparade.com
Rockford Homes

Pol suggests speaking with an agent about what you want from the beginning. If you decide later to make additions, you could end up with complications, such as a sink in the basement without proper plumbing to make it functional.

“There are good questions to ask along the way,” Pol says. “‘How’s this going to work? What’s most important to get into this home? Where do you spend the most time? Do you entertain?’”

Another common oversight, Yates says, is outdoor spaces. Covered decks, patios and porches are not easy to add on.

Windows, doors and elevation all factor into the process of implementing these kinds of structures later.

Conceptualizing what your space may be used for is essential to making changes down the road, Yates says. An experienced agent will help you find the best way to fulfill your needs and implement all the amenities you will need once you’ve finally settled in. Affordable and unique

“There’s a misconception that custom homes are for the wealthy only,” Yates says. “But the reality is that, while

custom builds can be pretty expensive, not every custom project follows suit. Building a custom home just means that you’ll be able to make the choices about the floor plan and materials used, but the buyer really has full control over those costs.”

Structural options may be unnecessary and often lead to overspending, Pol says. While future-proofing is important, not every home needs every feature. Having a malleable wish list is very important when considering cost, and your builder will help you prioritize. With a reliable builder at

Manor Homes Rockford Homes Manor Homes

your side, you do not need to be an expert in architecture and design. Just because a company offers you the lowest price, that doesn’t mean that they are the right builder for your dream home, Yates says.

“Cost per square foot is not always an accurate representation of that value you’re getting from your home builder,” he says. “Things to consider are the longevity of your investment, operating costs and the reputation of the homebuilder, so (buyers) are comfortable knowing (that) if something happens, (the builders) have (their) back.”

Finding a builder may feel like a daunting task, but it is worth doing your research, given that buying a home is such a monumental decision.

Building a relationship

An experienced builder is crucial to helping a first-time homebuyer avoid oversights and unnecessary costs.

“There are a lot of things that people may overlook because it’s not visible,” Yates says. “You walk up to the front of the home, and there are things that we’re putting in it that you may not see, (but) that are something to consider.”

A reputable builder will be up-front about costs, Yates says, so the buyer knows not to expect hidden costs at the end.

“We work with the buyers to achieve what they want for less. We kind of coach them throughout the process,” Yates says. “If they have a look they’re looking for, we can maybe find a cheaper alternative.”

Pol suggests remaining engaged throughout the building process to maintain the excitement of building a home.

“Be happy and be excited about it. You’re building the home that you want, so don’t be too caught up in the negative,” he says. “Be more involved, be around. Check things out, check the home site throughout the build. Talk to the builder; they’ll communicate with you if you ask them questions. Don’t be afraid to ask, but be respectful of the process, too.

“It should be fun. It should be exciting. Take pictures along the way. Make a scrapbook of the process so you can see it from start to finish. And celebrate when you move in. Don’t be afraid to celebrate when it’s all complete.”

Parade Through Paint Trends

Color trends over the years and timeless tricks

As any homeowner who has spent hours pacing Home Depot’s paint aisle would know, color is one of the most important determinants of a home’s character. Color speaks volumes, and deciding what you want your walls to say is no simple task.

Although certain colors are timeless, trends in wall colors tend to follow a cyclical pattern. Just as jeans shifted from flared to low-waisted, favored hues for homeowners evolve constantly. Here’s a glimpse into the twists and turns of the home color palette throughout the decades.

1950s: Waving the Pastel Flag

The end of World War II brought a boom of babies and a boom of color. Living in a post-war era prompted a desire for dream homes, leading homeowners to swap muted tones for pastel pops of color. Popular colors: mint green, peach, baby blue

1960s: Colorful Counterculture

The ’60s were full of disruption and bold energy, and the color trends of this time were just as loud as the culture. Acidic, eye-popping colors flanked walls, and vibrant wallpaper was introduced to living spaces.

Popular colors: pea green, bright orange, teal

1970s: An Entry to Earthy Tones

In contrast with the wild hues of the previous decade, the ’70s embraced the natural. Colors shifted to warm and peaceful tones that evoked a sense of comfort.

Popular colors: harvest gold, avocado green, burnt orange

1980s: Tints that Talk

The environmentalist era of the ’70s was short-lived. As consumerism flooded the new decade, electric pops of color in the home followed. Intense colors and bright patterns replaced warm tones, and maximalism took the reins

Popular colors: fuchsia, cobalt blue, bright red

1990s: A Rustic Revival

The loud looks of the ’80s faded back into neutral during this decade. Minimalist colors became the rage, and homeowners opted for a more rustic atmosphere.

Popular colors: beige, sage, terra cotta

2000s: Stainless Shades

As technology boomed and exciting innovations sprouted, stainless steel took over homes to reflect a clean, luxurious look. The turn of the century brought a desire for the clean and pristine.

Popular colors: shades of white, tan, blue-gray

Withstanding the Test of Time

A wide spectrum of colors has flowed in and out of homes throughout the years, and the cycle continues to shift constantly. Due to this unpredictability, you may want to listen to your heart rather than the newest viral trend when it comes to picking your shade. However, a new method many companies offer to make the paint-buying process easier is the use of peel-and-stick paint colors. Instead of having to waste money on sample paint or inaccurately gauge colors with swatches, customers can receive peel-andstick paint samples that they can apply to walls. This new innovation allows for seamless paint testing that avoids any mess.

Regardless of your shade preference, there are some helpful things to keep in mind when you decide to make some changes. When choosing a color, Sarah Lacy, a consultant at Creative Paints, recommends surveying your surroundings.

“Lighting is the biggest factor,” Lacy says.

One of the most important aspects to consider involving lighting is the direction in which your room is exposed to light.

56 2023 BIA Parade of Homes | BIAparade.com
57 BIAparade.com | 2023 BIA Parade of Homes

North-facing rooms receive a cool, less direct exposure. Bolder colors often are more appealing than muted tones. If you’re seeking a vibrant hue, north-facing rooms are the perfect spaces to do so.

South-facing rooms receive the most attention from the sun during the day, so any color in these rooms will be highlighted by the consistent rays. Soft and cool hues are favorable in these rooms.

An east-facing room receives the majority of its light in the morning, providing it with a yellow hue. Warm colors such as reds and oranges are complemented well with this light source.

Lastly, west-facing rooms receive attention from the evening sun, exposing them to golden rays. To balance this, neutral undertones such as beige or ashwood are optimal.

Although picking a color is important, deciding what kind of paint to use is crucial to a home’s appearance. The type of finish varies with each room, but generally, Lacy recommends a high-grade washable flat paint. These paints provide a clean finish that masks imperfections and can be touched up as needed. A washable flat finish lasts for years, so it is worth the investment to spend a few extra dollars on higherquality options.

Another worthy investment Lacy emphasizes is a solid primer. She recommends bonding primers as a useful alternative to traditional primers. With the ability to bond to various metals, bonding primer has a sturdy finish on interior and exterior surfaces, ensuring that even the most challenging surfaces receive a flawless finish.

Although it may be tempting to consult HGTV or social media for inspiration on the latest color trend, the paint on your wall will long outlive the ever-changing cycle of popular paint colors. Consulting professionals at Creative Paints or your paint store of choice is a great way to ensure you have the tools necessary for a clean paint job. When it comes to paint, avoid trendy, and go timeless.

Plant with a Plan

Tips for a landscape that is both trendy and timely

Proud homeowners and professional HGTV-watchers know that no home is complete if it isn’t accompanied by the perfect landscape. However, developing a plan for your greenery that stays up to date with current trends is a daunting task without a bit of help.

When beginning a landscaping project, whether that be with professional help or on your own, there’s one key element that Patrick Affourtit, owner of Blendon Gardens, says cannot be overlooked. “Plan it out,” Affourtit says. “Think about doing things that are easy to do first.”

It is easy to neglect crucial factors in gardening processes, such as purchasing permits and creating a

strategy, so even DIY planters should seek professional advice or purchase a plan from a contractor.

It’s generally wise to start with small hardscape projects such as patios and fire pits, as these tasks become much trickier once sod has been added. After these features have been established, it’s time to plant, but don’t forget to read the fine print when you’re sizing up your next shrub.

“Always look at the tag, and see how big that plant gets,” Affourtit says. “Every plant has a perfect spot, and you don’t want to overplant.”

Often, tiny containers can be deceiving. Without carefully reading plant tags,

you could end up with an overwhelming 10-foot shrub in place of the small-scale decor you envisioned.

In addition to paying attention to the size of the plant, keep an eye on the quantity. Though it’s hard to resist the appeal of so many different types of greenery, overcrowding your landscape can lead to a congested feel, and will make future upgrades difficult. Using plant tags as guidebooks will provide clarity.

If visual learning is more your niche, select landscaping businesses such as Blendon Gardens have showrooms similar to those visited by homebuilders. These showrooms use display gardens to exhibit the plants they carry, giving visitors a glimpse at how these products will look in a realistic setting.

When it comes to picking the perfect plant, convenience is key.

“Generally, everyone wants a lowmaintenance landscape that balances all your seasonal colors,” Affourtit says. “Rarely do you get people saying, ‘I want to work in my garden every single weekend.’”

To ensure easy upkeep, stick to plants that grow well in the Columbus zone. Generally, these are plants that grow well in clay soil. While it may seem logical to resort to native plants, these are actually quite difficult to find at local nurseries. Manageable alternatives include junipers and various flowering shrubs.

You can still build a practical landscape while staying up to date with the latest gardening trends.

As with fashion trends, landscaping enthusiasts often rotate popular picks throughout the year for their yards.

This gives landscapers such as Affourtit insight into what people are looking for in their next improvement.

“One thing is tropical plants,” Affourtit says. “A lot of people are incorporating tropical plants in containers or actually

planting them in the ground, and bringing them back in during the winter time.”

Container gardens are a go-to for many homeowners. For those who lack a vast landscape or are looking for plants

that are easy to care for, these gardens are ideal.

However, some trends reach deeper than convenience. The trend that many people are building their landscapes around has nothing to do with soil or sod.

“There’s a term, it’s a Danish term, and it’s called Hygge,” Affourtit says. “Basically, that Danish word is togetherness.”

Beyond creating aesthetically pleasing outdoor spaces, people are seeking places to connect with their loved ones. Over the past few years, the necessity for outdoor gatherings has skyrocketed, and landscaping tendencies followed suit.

“With almost every patio that we install, people are doing fire pits,” Affourtit says. “Defining the outdoor spaces has been a trend for the last couple of years.”

Gas fire pits, pavilions and outdoor kitchens have all gained popularity in the era of outdoor living. Instead of building a simple patio, people are more inclined to detail their areas. Through creating individual spaces for dining and socializing, landscaping has redefined the outdoor space as a communal one.

Light it Up

Finding the perfect light for every space in your home

Creating a unique and cohesive space in a home all begins with setting the mood. Regardless of the size or purpose of the room, lighting can take a simple space and make it sophisticated and spacious or cozy and rustic.

There are many different ways to design lighting for a space, but Kellie Linkous from Northern Lighting recommends looking at three key factors: budget, environment and brightness.

Budget

While working with designers might be easier for first-time homeowners, designing the lighting for a space does not have to mean breaking the bank.

For a DIY lighting design, focus on one or two statement fixtures that can set the tone for the room. An overhead light in the kitchen brightens the whole space and draws attention to the island or dining table, making the kitchen a centralized gathering place as well as a functional work area.

Recessed lighting brightens the entire space evenly without becoming the focal

point, allowing for more freedom with other design elements and making it a more flexible option that can light up any space. Though installing a ceiling of recessed lighting isn’t necessarily cheaper than purchasing large accent lights, recessed lighting is durable and adaptable, and doesn’t go out of style, making it a valuable investment.

Those looking for a more personalized design experience can work with a lighting company to ensure each room is lit to its dream home potential. While more expensive, this option takes away the stress of trying to individually design every area. Companies such as Northern Lighting work with customers to find the perfect lighting for the size and aesthetic of their homes. Additionally, walking through the expansive showroom could help spark imagination as you narrow down your choices with a consultant.

Environment

Creating an ambience for each room elevates every space of the home. Targeted lighting design can take an empty room and make it soft and sultry,

open and airy, or dark and cozy. Before remaking a space, consider how the room should feel at the end of the process.

After deciding on the goal aesthetic, consider the types of lighting fixtures that go into the space. For a larger space, choose a chandelier or a pendant to act as a centerpiece for a more contemporary vibe. Incorporate hanging lanterns with incandescent bulbs in the kitchen to create a more rustic, homey environment. A semi-flush wall mount with dimmable LEDs creates a soft, controlled glow perfect for a modern bathroom.

The key to finding the perfect overhead lighting is to consider the size of the room. A large chandelier in a cozy guest room will overpower the space, whereas recessed lighting is perfect for lower ceilings. To create a more modern, clean effect, try under lighting kitchen cabinets, which can help lift the space and give the home a modern feel.

Linkous says another consideration is to find fixtures that are easy to clean, especially for kitchens, which can be prone to dirt and grease.

Solar lighting is an energy-efficient and cost-effective method for lighting outdoor spaces. Use a solar light to increase visibility and security with porch and sidewalk lighting without racking up the electric bill. By strategically placing uplights to highlight gardens or landscape features, you can create a sophisticated look, or use a string of solar bulbs to cast a glow on outdoor living spaces, making the backyard fun year-round.

Brightness

While brightness can refer to the visibility of the light, it also refers to the tone of the light, which can vary from a warm, yellow glow to a crisp blue tint. Nowadays, there’s an LED for every vibe, making any aesthetic possible.

“LEDs have come a long way,” Linkous says. “They have come out with … more of a warm white all the way up to what we call a super cool white.”

A brightness level at the lower range of the Kelvin scale results in a warmer light that gradually cools as the number increases. For a neutral light that fits most spaces, Linkous recommends 3,000 Kelvin.

“(A 3,000-Kelvin) takes away a little bit of that harsh yellow cast, and makes it just a little bit more white,” Linkous says. “It’s actually a lot nicer on the eyes.”

For living spaces such as family or living rooms, avoid harsh overhead lighting and go for a neutral-toned light that bounces off the walls, creating a soft brightness that makes the room perfect for enjoying the space for an extended time period. Additionally, you can choose a dimmable light to control the room at all points

during the day. Uplighting is also popular for accenting pieces in the space and provides visual interest.

Linkous recommends considering paint colors and curtains when attempting to light a space. A lighter paint color, or changing curtains and blinds, could help to open up the room.

Charged Up

A look into USB ports in modern outlets and in-home EV charging stations

More products every day use USB ports. Adapters, commonly known as power blocks, are a necessary step in converting typical three-pronged outlets for USB compatibility.

In today’s modern builds, more spaces are including new age USB-compatible outlets that not only maintain your double three-pronged receptacle, but also sport an additional USB port or two. This allows homeowners to ditch their pesky adapters, plug more devices into a single outlet and free up three-pronged receptacles for other appliances.

Experts say plugging your USB devices directly into an electrical outlet can charge a device up to 40 percent faster

than using an adapter. Many of these USB ports include smart chips capable of detecting the optimal charging amperage of devices and adjusting accordingly. Safety is the primary driver in the rise of these ports. Homeowners can ditch their surge protectors, as there are now safer ways to have multiple plug-ins.

Car ports

With the investment in electric vehicles growing, communities are making an effort to provide proper charging stations. Homeowners should consider preparing their spaces for these automotives as well. As much as 85% of EV charging happens at home, but not everyone has access to these ports where they park.

“Between multi-family and gas stations, it kind of all goes hand in hand,” says Aaron Depinet, senior manager of field operations at Nationwide Energy

Partners. “What local governments, property owners and other folks have in mind is to make it convenient and not a burden for people to charge their cars.”

EV drivers are changing their routes so they can charge their vehicles, leading many to adjust their living

arrangements so they can conveniently charge their cars.

Many homeowners are starting to wonder when and how to upgrade a home to become EV compatible.

A lot goes into installing the proper hardware in your home. As with most

construction projects, it is wise to plan ahead and make preparations for the charging station during a new build rather than installing post-build.

During the planning stages, ensure the structure has the appropriate circuit and enough space for the charger. Depending on the size of the garage, the placement of the charger itself should allow for use in both stalls.

Charging stations are not typically included in the construction of new builds, requiring homeowners to buy them on their own.

People looking to install EV charging stations in their detached garage may find themselves in a difficult situation. If there is no current power supply to the garage, homeowners will have to set it up with the help of a licensed electrician. The average EV charger will pull 7,200 watts or less of electricity about 3,000 watts less than a typical electric furnace. These stations will noticeably increase your electricity bill, which is something to consider when installing an in-home charging station.
