Home Theater Basics People today go to the movie theater for the impact and emotional involvement they get at the movie theater. AVDG takes into consideration the most important aspects of a home theater from the room acoustics to the sound system to the video. The sound system provides 50% of the emotional impact of a movie. AVDG has designed sound systems for the family room to large home theaters. For a lot of us, Home Theater became more of a reality with the advent of HI-FI VCR tapes. What VCR tapes lacked is a high quality picture. DVD’s have changed that. With the introduction of HD and Digital Audio we can provide an almost reference quality product to bring more of the visual and audio experience and emotion to the home theater. You can avoid the crowds and the sticky floors by having AVDG install a theater for you.

Whole House Audio A lot of people do not realize how much a whole house sound system can add to their home. It literally adds another atmosphere to the environment. Whole house systems have evolved to a point that one system can power a whole house, and play different sources in different rooms all off the same system. If your kids want to play satellite radio or ipod in one room and you want to hear Mozart off of a CD in another room, you can do that all off of one system. If you decide to play something different in the room you are in, all you have to do is push a button on a remote or any in-wall touchscreen to change the source or raise or lower the volume.

Security Systems Our staff of professional installers are also able to provide you with the safety and peace of mind that only a monitored home security system complete with smoke detection can bring. Pre-wired and installed in your new home, or retrofit into your existing home, your new system will be easy and convenient to use from anywhere in the world.

The Green Home Going “Green” is the up and coming way to save you hundreds of dollars a year in lighting costs by controlling unused areas and dimming lights to levels that will save you money. Saving money is the key no matter what state the economy is in.

A light dimmed at 25% will provide 20% energy savings. A light dimmed at 50% is perceived as being on at 70.7%. AVDG can save you hundreds of dollars every year just by adding Lutron dimmers with a lighting system. AVDG is the only Audio Video Dealer certified by Lutron in the Dayton Area. With this savings, you may be able to add that new home theater.

Commercial Installation AVDG can also serve your commercial needs. As the areas premier installation company, we are capable of handling the largest of commercial needs. We are experienced in the largest of commercial projects including networking and distributed audio and video systems to phone and security.

’’

If there is one thing I’ve learned about interior design, it is that there is a reason for everything. John was one of the more than 40 interior designers and landscapers to show off their talents at this year’s Designers’ Show House presented by the Dayton Philharmonic Volunteer Association. The extraordinary attention to detail seen throughout the house proves that every piece of furniture, paint color, and accessory has a purpose.

The Miami Valley is known for its more traditional and transitional homes, so when we came across a Mediterranean villa in Oakwood, which coincidentally is right around the corner from the site of the Designers’ Show House, we couldn’t resist taking a peek inside. Not only is the house unique in design, it holds a lot of history for its family.

This issue offers a sampling of the work from some of the best interior designers in the Miami Valley. We hope that you see something in this issue that sparks the start of your next home renovation project. Should you need any help or advice, please give the businesses within this magazine a call! Don’t forget to check out Housetrends.com for even more home and garden projects and resources. Please feel free to shoot me an email with any questions or editorial projects we should know about.

A Thread

Rich family history intertwines with European design to create an intriguing Oakwood home

By Julie Thompson Photos by Daniel Feldkamp/Visual Edge Imaging

You can travel around the world, but there’s really no place like home. F Perhaps that is why when one Dayton home­ owner finally built the house of her dreams she went to great lengths to make sure a little piece of home was imbedded into it. F The home—10,000 square feet of grandeur nes­ tled in the heart of Oakwood’s west side—was designed after the homeowner’s love for Mediterranean style and European design. She picked up the taste as a child, when she traveled frequently overseas, following wherever her dad’s executive career would lead. F But while it was her childhood journeys that shaped how the house was designed and built, it was her family ties that provided the detail that would turn the estate into a home. continued >

TOP: An inviting fountain and comfortable outdoor furniture adorn the front entry.

BOTTOM: A loggia runs along each side of the front entry door.

OPPOSITE: The wood inlays on the floor of the library perfectly match the dark poplar wood walls.

Crafted into the home’s 10-foot ceilings are 200-year-old beams that were originally part of her grandfather’s farm in Indiana. “Because she moved around a lot she wanted something in her home that had some meaning,” says Lori Sowder, the interior designer who helped bring the home­owner’s dream to life from conception.

The farm where the beams were harvested was a place where the homeowner would spend summer after summer playing as a child. Great care was put into getting the beams and making them ready for the new home. An Amish carpenter was hired to take down each beam and split them by hand and then stain them for the new home.

The hard work was worth it and the result is amazing. The heavy oak beams create a thread throughout the home’s first floor, adding the needed warm touch among the authentic plaster walls, imported ceramic flooring and wrought iron pieces.

Beyond the beams, however, one sees a home meticulously and carefully planned. Each detail—fabric fibers to one-of-a-kind pieces of furniture—flows into a harmonious picture that comes to life in European flavor.

Setting the stage The home’s architecture is definitely not like the rest in its neighborhood. Even the next door estate, from which the land was sold to build the new home, fits the early 1900s home built in the era of the Wright Brothers.

But this home introduces a new flavor into the Oakwood community. Its curves and arches are first seen from the road and are carried from that point forward to its porch, through its front door and all the way throughout every room.

The front of the house is one of the primary outdoor living spaces since it faces the Dayton Country Club’s ninth tee. It also stays true to Mediterranean culture where features such as fountains are often placed in the front of the home. One of the home­ owner’s favorite details is the loggia which boasts handcrafted pillars, each carved from a singular piece of limestone. continued >

7/2/09 2:54:01 PM

The home’s circular foyer creates a dramatic entryway. Nearly everything in the space was designed and handcrafted to fit the unique shape. The homeowner worked closely with the designer to pick out the front door’s wood, window and even hardware.

The entry’s flooring is what grabs the attention of visitors first.

Custom made ceramic tile—shipped in seven different pieces from overseas—creates a true compass rose. The floor’s mosaic design includes nearly all the warm colors—gold, reds, browns and greens—that are carried throughout the home in fabrics and paintings.

European eatery The homeowner’s favorite part of her home is her kitchen. It’s the place where she spends a lot of her time entertaining or taking care of the everyday needs of her three children.

Still, it’s no ordinary kitchen. Like the rest of the home, careful design has taken a room that is normally known for its function and made it known for its beauty. In fact, functionality isn’t really something that is visible to the ordinary eye.

7/2/09 2:54:28 PM

Except for the stove top, every other appliance is carefully hidden behind handcrafted doors that look more like armoires than mass-manufactured façades. The two hidden refrigerators are easily opened, however, by the hand-carved handles. The kitchen’s backsplash is a focal point because its mosaic marble design provides the color needed to connect the room with the adjoining living room and breakfast nook.

The large light fixture hanging above the island is one of many throughout the home that were created in California and shipped into Dayton. The fixtures not only stay true to the Mediterranean use of iron, but also provide the right scale needed to fit the extraordinary high ceilings throughout the home.

A place of solitude The first floor offers a multitude of living spaces—including a living room, kitchen, breakfast nook, half bath, mudroom, laundry room and coat closet—but nothing is more beloved than the library. The room was designed quite different from the rest of the first floor where cream floors and walls lay a basic backdrop off which vibrant colors can easily pop. continued > OPPOSITE TOP: The 200-year-old wood ceiling beams are from the home­owner’s grandfather’s farm in Indiana. BOTTOM: The island and refrigerator cabinet panels feature a brown stain, setting them apart from the cream perimeter cabinetry. THIS PAGE TOP: A large table, surrounded by elegant upholstered chairs, serves as the centerpiece of the formal dining room. BELOW: An ornate rug creates visual separation between the breakfast nook and kitchen.

BOTTOM: A perfect spot for entertaining, the lower level boasts a fully stocked bar area and pool table.

The library, on the contrary, is a dark, rich setting that beckons the homeowners to break away from the hustle and bustle of normal life and all of its technological conveniences. The homeowner designed it that way and specifically wanted a space where the family could gather to read books, play games or just talk without having to worry about a television set blaring in the background.

The library’s walls are decorated with poplar wood and its detail is handcrafted as well as nearly all the furniture that is placed inside it. The room’s rich fabrics include cut velvet and embossed leather.

A large wood burning fireplace—equipped with one-of-a-kind hand forged screens and tools - makes it the perfect getaway on the cold winter nights.

The room’s floor breaks the norm seen throughout the rest of the first floor. Dark wood, which matches that used on the walls, was inlaid among the slate to create a warmer feeling. It was a detail Lori suggested and the homeowner absolutely loved.

The home was a designer’s dream, Lori says. Not only did she get to work from a blank canvas, but also had the opportunity to do everything from scratch including all the furniture that was chosen to fill the home.

“A designer can only be as good as a homeowner will let them and (the home­ owner) was extremely open to my ideas,” Lori says. “She had an opinion of what she wanted and impeccable taste. It made for a great relationship and a beautiful result in the end.”

and/or their guests. This area can be used for additional seating when entertaining.

Descend three steps from the pool area and you will find a paved area with a natural stone fire pit and custom Brazilian hardwood seating.

This space is perfect for entertaining guests or making s’mores with the kids.

Big group plantings throughout the space provide lots of color with minimal maintenance for this on the go family. Rose gardens are located on either side of the patio in the lawn areas as well as in the bed near the house in the pool area. Herbs are planted near the house where they may be easily maintained. An area by the porch is dedicated to herbs on the edge of an ornamental bed so they blend seamlessly into the landscaping. The herbs are separated, however, by stone that matches the limestone outcroppings throughout the project to help keep the homeowner’s herbs in their place.

The overall goal of the client has been achieved with this design: An area perfect for entertaining requiring little maintenance. The beauty, functionality and seamless transition from indoors to out make this the ultimate in outdoor living.

Harmony in Design 2009 Designers’ Show House strikes a colorful chord

By Christina Kleiner

Photos by Jim Crotty

InterIor desIgn can be Interpreted In many dIfferent ways by dIfferent people. like art, great interior design speaks to you. It invokes an emotion that at times can touch your soul. the 2009 designers’ show House is not an exception. the show House is the dayton philharmonic Volunteer association’s largest fundraiser. funds raised during the biennial show, which was held in may, help support music education programs in the miami Valley and the dayton philharmonic orchestra. F this year over 7,000 people toured the 15,000-square-foot french eclectic home in oakwood, where more than 40 area interior designers and landscapers showcased their talents. designed in 1928, the house has transferred hands several times, until 2007, when it was purchased by Kevin and tiffany chambers. the home was in great disrepair, but instead of tearing it down, the chambers offered the home to the dpVa as the site of this year’s show House. F one of the big standouts this year was the use of paint colors. the chambers selected a palette of sherwin-williams paint colors for the designers to choose from. the end result is a seamless home that brings to life the grandeur of the 1920s with a touch of modern influences that flow perfectly from room to room. continued >

The mixture of light and dark cabinetry, paired up with the bank of windows and pale gray-green walls works perfectly in the space. Interesting details such as the large furniture piece that houses the refrigerator and freezer and the sliding panels of marble which conceal spices and oils behind the range pick up the modern elements.

John P. Stuart, J. Stuart Parker InterIorS “A different chair for a different personality” is how John P. Stuart explains his decision to surround the dining table with a variety of chairs. Stuart says his goal was to create a decadent dining room with a dramatic touch worthy of the classic vintage home. Dark taupe walls and the white fireplace and trim set the tone for the formal space.

DIane konIckI, Dk InterIorS, LLc The romantic notions of Paris, France served as the inspiration behind Diane Konicki’s vision for the upper terrace. Accessible via French doors off the dining room and living room, Konicki’s goal was to make the porch feel like it was part of the home, a place where the homeowners would want to stay and relax. It’s not hard to imagine sitting on the porch, enjoying brunch in the morning or dessert as the sun goes down.

Turquoise can make a statement, whether through paint or a funky accent pillow. Add the radiant glow to any space in the house for an instant burst of color.

There is a certain quiet confidence to the vibrant, yet calming hue. Go as bright or as subdued as you feel, the outcome is sure to be an unexpected treat.

CUSTOM BUILDER SHOWCASE MILLENNIUM FINE HOMES IS ONE OF DAYTON’S FINEST CUSTOM HOME BUILDERS. Imagine walking into your brand new custom home where its fine quality is expressed throughout. Each moment you will be amazed as this place you call home continues to take your breath away. Built with such high standards, Millennium Fine Homes is one of Dayton’s finest custom home builders.

When buying a home from Millennium Fine Homes you can relax in the knowledge that Douglas Pund, owner and inspiration behind Millennium Fine Homes, is personally overseeing every aspect of your new home construction.

With an eye for detail, Doug’s high standards and demand for quality in any budget make every Millennium home unique. Doug builds every home as if he were moving in himself.

True custom building does not come with a specific floor plan; we design the home with you and tailor each characteristic to suit your lifestyle. Although Doug’s taste includes a modern

contemporary European flair, we have built many traditional and transitional homes. Our architect will work directly with us until your home ideas are captured and developed. Remember, we design for YOU! Deciding what flooring, appliances, fixtures and all other options to have installed and built into your new home can be a daunting task. At Millennium Fine Homes, Doug or one of his employees will personally take you to meet the suppliers who will be working on your new home.

The relationship between Millennium Fine Homes and its many vendors is very strong; the majority of them have been with Doug from the beginning.

Doug only wants to work with the best, and because of the respect his vendors have for him he gets the best.

The greatest reward for Millennium Fine Homes is the sense of accomplishment shared by all when we hand over the keys to your brand new custom

home. Your smile will say it all.

We just sold our stunning model at Country Club of the North so Doug can implement his new innovations in a brand new model home. Construction on our brand new model home is slated to begin this summer and we are very excited to display, once again, another stunning model showcasing his uniqueness and creativity.

For more information on Millennium Fine Homes, contact Shelley Parks, exclusive sales agent or Doug Pund, owner.

Home prices starting at $350,000… don’t just dream about it!

CUSTOM BUILDER SHOWCASE DESIGN HOMES HAS BEEN A MAINSTAY IN THE SOUTH DAYTON COMMUNITY FOR OVER TWENTY YEARS For over twenty years, Design Homes & Development Company Inc. has been a mainstay in the South Dayton Community and regarded as one of the finest custom home builders in the industry. The company was founded by Shery Oakes in 1987 on the grounds of delivering clients high quality custom homes with expert craftsmanship, in a timely fashion, at a fair price . . . and Design Homes has delivered!

“Design Homes feels that the custom homebuilding process should be an enjoyable experience. For many, custom building a home happens only once in a lifetime, and our goal is to make that once in a lifetime experience the best it can possibly be!” Each home offers a unique attention to detail and custom quality that abides to each client’s every discretion.

Much of the company’s success can be attested to its customer service and the rest to its diversity. With a degree in business, Shery knew the importance of being well diversified. “We are a custom builder, but have carried those skills over into many aspects of the industry. Design Homes is

a full service real estate brokerage; we offer apartments, commercial business and medical space for sale and lease, land development services and have even recently introduced Soraya Farms to the South Dayton Market, which encompasses nearly all of our services.”

Soraya Farms is a Lifestyle Community that boasts Country French Single Family, Patio Homes and Condo-style homes surrounded by fine amenities such as a clubhouse, walking trails, fully stocked ponds, a fitness facility, pool and much more. A light retail village is planned for a later phase of the project that will show off many of the same custom finishes that the Soraya home options include and for which the company has become known.

Positioned in the South Dayton Region, Design Homes has added value through the location of their developments.

Soraya Farms, Cypress Ridge, Chadwick’s Claim and Springboro Station call Springboro / Clearcreek Township home, while a couple of new communities, Yearling Farms and The Springs at Winding Creek, call Centerville / Wash-

ington Township home. Offering homes from the $190’s and lots from $48,900, along with wonderful school districts and close vicinity to shopping, entertainment and travel, Design Homes is right where you want to be!

Now more than ever, Design Homes realizes the need for its clients to be confident in its abilities as a builder and its staying power in the community. Shery has a few words for anyone thinking about building with Design Homes, “we are here to stay!” We’ve set a high priority on customer satisfaction and our company continuously ranks highly among customer satisfaction surveys. Our sole aim is that every homebuyer will be more than pleased with his or her home and the services our company has provided them.

CUSTOM BUILDER SHOWCASE IN 2007 THE MILLER VALENTINE GROUP LAUNCHED THE LIFESTYLE COMMUNITIES DIVISION, THEIR FORAY INTO RESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION. THE HOME BUILDERS ASSOCIATION OF GREATER CINCINNATI AWARDED THEM 12 INDUSTRY AWARDS, INCLUDING BEST PRODUCT DESIGN.

KERRY SEITEL DIRECTOR OF SALES & MARKETING

Imagine a lifestyle community for young adults and empty nesters with tastefully appointed patio homes where they do not have to compromise their standard of living, a home that allows them more time to enjoy leisure activities, shop, dine, socialize, and relax with friends, because the management company mows the grass, weeds the flower beds, and shovels the snow.

According to Kerry Seitel, the Director of Sales and Marketing for Lifestyle Communities, the Miller Valentine Group imagined and designed Sugar Ridge, a Lifestyle Community on 43 beautiful acres that preserves scenic Little Sugar Creek. The community plan includes a private lake, a resort-like style clubhouse, has mature trees, and stunning views. Every home is carefully constructed to blend the

best of traditional charm, modern amenities, and carefree living. A central park protects the habitat; the community has more than a mile of walking paths, and there are pocket parks with benches and arbors.

Flexible floor plans range from two to three bedrooms, and were designed with open, modern rooms.

Amenities like cathedral ceilings, recessed lighting, four-season verandas, quality hardwood floors, upgraded cabinetry, fireplaces, under cabinet lighting, walk-in closets, private outdoor patios, and oversized garages, considered upgrades by other builders are standard in Miller Valentine designs.

Wider doorways and hallways, larger walk-in showers, taller vanities, light fixtures in every room, and no step entries, allows you to live in your home comfortably for

an extended period of time, eliminating the need to find another home in your later years.

Energy Star速- rated furnaces, windows and appliances can save you up to 30 percent on your utility bills, and the exteriors are faced with stone and James Hardie速 siding, which creates a non-combustible exterior, an exterior that does not require maintenance.

Located on the southwest corner of Feedwire and Little Sugarcreek Road in Sugar Creek, sales for Sugar Ridge are being handled by Bill Lee & Associates, 937-542-9757.

The Information Center is open Saturday through Wednesday, noon to 6.

A rolling stone gathers no moss, but a wise gardener certainly grows it

By Phyllis Gricus | Photos by David M. Cobb and John Magor

Moss in the garden, with its vibrant green palette, is an aesthetic to be appreciated. Its serene beauty seducesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;calming and restful to the eye, it is lush and invites touch.

Covering the ground with softness, and lending a green hue to shade, it grows where most other plants will not. continued >

Environmentally sound Admiration of moss in the garden doesn’t come easily to people who revere a lush lawn above all else. Moss that creeps into their turf is declared a “weed” and cause for chemical warfare. This often backfires though, as weed killers aid the spread of moss by way of clearing the soil of competing plants. Moss is an excellent, chemical-free, no-mow alternative ground cover that is ideal for shady conditions. Once established, moss takes less maintenance than turf and I say, “Where the grass wants out, let the moss come in!” Encourage what nature wants to do. You, your garden, and the environment, will all benefit.

Promoting moss growth requires regular clearing of leaf litter and other debris—nothing more. Well, nothing more than patience and time, but the reward, aah…a forest floor voluptuously carpeted in a velvety green so compelling to bare feet that you must shuck off your shoes (and show off your pedicure!) for a tickly trip across the cushy swatch.

Natural and enchanting

A moss lawn is an ideal shady ground cover, but it’s best to keep your dogs and cats away—they can tear it up and their urine can leave black rings.

Perhaps you don’t have a lot of shade in your yard. No problem.

You can grow moss in smaller patches and on many surfaces. A mossy covering adds the patina of permanence; its ageless beauty, long appreciated in the gardens of Japan, can be a visual element in your garden too. Moss can be grown successfully in containers tucked into a shady nook. It can also be raised innocuously on rocks, walls, roofs, and statuary due to the fact that it doesn’t have destructive roots. Instead, moss puts out wispy, root-like extensions (technically, rhizoids) that hold it in place. Even in dormancy moss adds both texture and color in the garden.

Growing moss where none exists is trickier than encouraging what wants to grow. Some advice? Choose your location well—it must offer shade, moisture and acidic soil (pH level 5.0-6.0, is ideal). The area to be planted must be clear of existing plants and debris. Place moss plants onto the soil, tamp them firmly into position, and water regularly for the first 2-3 weeks.

Assuming environmental conditions are met, transplanting sheets or clumps of moss is the fastest way but may not fit into everyone’s budget. An economical, but more iffy option is to create a moss slurry in a blender. Mix a handful of moss with a liquid (water, beer, or buttermilk) and a spoonful of water retention gel, and blend briefly until thick. Smear the mixture over the prepared planting bed where you want the moss to grow. Water constantly until well established. This method can also be effectively used on rocks, statuary and terracotta pots. continued >

A moss pathway is pleasurable to walk on (you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hurt it).

Just remember to tamp down any patches that you might accidentally kick up.

Collecting mosses

Resources Moss Gardening: Including Lichens,

Liverworts, and Other Miniatures by George Schenk. Timber Press www.timberpress.com; Moss Acres www.mossacres.com

Photo by John Magor

The best times of the year to collect and transplant mosses are in spring and fall. Search for moss nearby that is growing in conditions similar to where you will be transplanting it. There are some mosses that will grow in sun with adequate moisture. Only harvest moss from a natural or wild area where it is permitted by law. And, you should take only a small portion of what is growing there. If possible, collect moss after a rain. Care must be taken not to destroy its system of pores so dig up small clumps with some soil still attached.

Moss growing in between a walkway is both picturesque and functional. It slows the erosion of soil during heavy rains.
