Fire pits, bowls and tables hot commodities Christina Symons For Postmedia News Spend time in almost any contemporary landscape these days and you’re bound to start seeing flames. Gas fire pits, fire bowls and fire tables have become a super hot commodity, adding warmth and personality to outdoor living spaces. Fire has always been a natural draw for those spending time outside. Brad Carpenter, owner of Solus Handcast Concrete Decor, contends that today’s fire features are more than just focal points; they’re also social magnets. “People are just naturally attracted to fire,” Carpenter says. “Most people tell us after they’ve installed a fire bowl, that it becomes a gathering place, a natural conversation pit.” Unlike traditional rustic wood-fired pits, today’s fire features are streamlined and typically fuelled by natural gas or propane. This makes a fire pit possible while adhering to municipal bylaws, which often ban open wood fires. Some burners fuelled by ethanol can even be used inside landscape structures

such as gazebos. Once the fuel has been established, deciding between a fire pit, fire table or fire bowl comes down to personal preference, functionality and style. “The fire table is quite popular because it allows you to place a small plate or a glass on the surface,” says Carpenter. “Fire bowls tend to kick out more warmth and inspire more conversation.” Of the Solus product line, the 36-inch fire bowl is a big seller. At The BBQ Shop in B.C., owner Nash Shivji has seen a surge in fire pit and fire table sales over the past few years. “We sell more fire tables than fire pits now, either coffee height or dining height,” says Shivji. “There’s a lot of choice, from aluminum, granite or concrete tops, with round burners or linear burners.” Fire features are an investment feature and people are willing to pay for quality, con-

tends Shivji. Solus products are shipped all over the world and manufactured in Vancouver from ultra-high-performance concrete, ranging in price from $2,900 to $7,000. However, those on a budget or looking for a smaller, portable unit can get some heat too. Shivji has a $280 model called Campfire in a Can that has proven to be very popular, for camping and outdoor applications. It offers an optional concrete fire table base, for “parking it” when back home. There are also DIY fire kits from $400 to $1,000 that allow consumers to custombuild a base around the bur ner to suit their landscape.

The Patioflame campfire with a topaz glass ember bed ($259) is perfect for a patio or wooden deck surface.

Kiwis have eye on housing affordability Stu Niebergall If we are looking for pragmatic solutions to make our housing more affordable in Saskatchewan or Canada, we should take note of the latest changes in public policy in New Zealand. New Zealand is a small country built on 268,021 kilometres squared and ranked 75th in world land mass. With a growing population of approximately 4.4 million, they have been early adopters of urban containment strategies of their cities and have some of the strongest regulatory environments for residential housing in the modern world. Understandable, as the diversity of land on this nation of islands are not friendly to construction of

new homes or neighbourhoods. Nationwide, they have also been one of few countries that have lead in the erosion of housing affordability over the past 30 years. In the 1980s it only required the average New Zealand family two times its household income to purchase the average home; in 2012 it was 5.5 times. In response, the New Zealand gover nment has recognized that housing affordability is complex in its detail, knowing that governments do intervene in housing markets in many ways. They also made it conceptually simple as Bill English the deputy prime minister of New Zealand stated, “It costs too much and takes too long to build a house in New Zealand”. New Zealand has developed a four-point plan to address housing affordability for all Kiwis: ■■ Increase land supply by working with local governments to increase the land made available for residen-

tial homes. They are creating opportunities for more Greenfield and Brownfield developments and allowing further densification of cities, where appropriate. ■■ Reduce delays and costs of government processes associated with housing that create uncertainties and delays, which have frustrated the development of more residential areas. Part of the policy shift contains a six-month time limit on local councils to process medium size development consents. ■■ Improve the timely provision of infrastructure to support new housing, which includes new ways to coordinate and manage infrastructure for subdivisions. This includes finding new ways to fund infrastructure such as roads, water and waste water facilities. ■■ Improve the productivity of the construction sector by undertaking a marketlevel approach to the construction sector — to identify barriers to improving

housing affordability. With the creation and evaluation of what they are referring to as Productivity Partnerships, the New Zealand government is pursuing strategies to create a 20 per cent increase in productivity among the residential construction industry by 2020. English has stated, “Decisions made by local councils not only affect local communities, but have wider effects on the economy and the government’s books. Many of the changes that will make a difference lie with councils and the government expects them to share the commitment to improving housing affordability.” It is an interesting dichotomy that a country (NZ), which has a very limited land supply and high urban density is renovating its planning policies to ensure housing affordability for the entire market is part of the urban planning decision process. In the meantime, a majority of Canadian municipali-

ties, in a country with the second-largest land base in the world (9,984,670 km squared), continues to place significant limits on urban growth and is increasing regulations on where and what type of new homes can be built. I am not aware of any plan approval process in Canada that considers how new projects and developments will impact supply and housing affordability. Maybe it’s time our government does. In addition, it is important that the federal government recognize that there is not one Canadian housing market, but numerous housing markets. In Canada, our housing policy should not be centred on our three biggest urban centres. What our province and local government needs to recognize is that the multitude of planning rules are not well understood as a whole and often full of internal contradictions. Much of the rule book for residential development dates back to

the 1960s and 1970s. As each decade has passed, numerous new additions of complicated policy changes that vary from one jurisdiction to another have been incorporated. If we are to address housing affordability for the entire population, we could learn something from New Zealand. Our provincial government has the ability to ensure an adequate land supply occurs in the market for cities to grow up and out. We need the provincial government to mandate effective regional planning and ensure our municipalities bylaws and policies are whittled down to an essential, coherent and well-managed suite of guidance that aids the delivery of good planning and ensures real choice in the housing market.

Neon brights back in fashion

Create a custom colour slat mat

Kim Cook The Associated Press The neon brights that peppered the 1980s are back — in fashion and decor. Highlighter hues and glow-in-the-dark tints provide a shot of adrenaline after a few seasons of mellow, mushroomy colour palettes. Of course, these colours aren’t for everyone. But if you’re ready to play, here are some fun options and expert advice on how to go sassy but stylish. Taniya Nayak, an interior designer and shelter-show host on HGTV and the Food Network, loves bright hues. She says the key is to make them look up-to-the-minute and not circa 1983. “Use neon in small doses,” she advises. “You don’t want to blind anyone. My favourite use of neon is against a crisp white backdrop. In a dining room, start with a glass table, white walls and pop it with bold colourful neon dinnerware, placemats, and vases — affordable and fun. If you dare to go even bolder, use neon print accent chairs.” Nayak says balance is everything when working with these powerhouse hues. “If you have a big, colourful personality and really want that bedroom or bathroom to glow, then go ahead and paint the entire room with your bold colour. But balance it with white, black, grey or even a pastel. For example, a bedroom painted in bold, green neon can work if the bedding, rug and window treatments offset it with a calming white and/or a pale soft blue,” she suggests. Take the same tack with a bathroom; add light-coloured towels and mat to cool things down. HomeGoods (homegoods.com) has some well-priced accessories, like bright orange and green ottomans, a ceramic lamp in citrus, a large selection of colourful kitchen tools and mirrored decorative boxes. Brooke Jones offers an array of tangerine-hued home accessories at her online shop on Etsy (etsy. com/shop/juxtapositionsc). A little elephant and a set of dinosaurtopped jars are part of the collection. Jones says, “I want to make colour accessible to everyone. Painting a wall a bright colour might not be realistic, but people can still bring in that fun, bright pop of the unexpected through home accessories. I hope my work inspires people to take chances and not take decorating too seriously.” Los Angeles-based designer Byron Samayoa’s laser-cut coasters (shop.bplusshop.com/) embossed with elemental information were

Looking for a DIY project to brighten your front door? The slat mat idea from Canadian paint maker Beauti-Tone might be just the trick. What you’ll need ■■ 2, 1-by-3-inch pieces of lumber, 12 feet long ■■ ¼-inch (6-mm) cotton sash cord ■■ 24, No. 5 hex nuts, 7⁄16 inch (1 cm) ■■ Stain (the example uses five Beauti-Tone Wood Shield colours; Green With Envy, Trash Can Grey, Amethyst Glass, Grouchland Sky and Corduroy) ■■ Sandpaper What to do 1. Cut lumber into 11 slats, 22

inches (8.7 cm) long. 2. Measure and mark four inches (10 cm) from both ends of each slat for drill holes. Drill with ½-inch (1.3-cm) drill bit. 3. Sand and stain all sides of the slats as desired. 4. Tie a single knot at the end of the rope and burn off excess with a soldering iron. Place a nut on the rope, then pull the rope through one end of a slat. Add a nut and then another slat. Repeat until all slats are on the rope. 5. Pull the rope tight, add a nut and tie off with a single knot. Burn off excess rope. Repeat the rope assembly on the other end.

not initially intended to be neon acrylic. “The coasters found their way to neon via the creative process — my original idea was to start with a wood set and a clear acrylic set, but every time I went back to my samples, the neon ones always stood out from the rest.” Canadian textile artist Christine Skaley Reid (etsy.com/shop/ pillowthrowdecor) works out of her studio in Mission, B.C., creating eclectic throw pillows in colour-banded and right-on-trend ’70s-style floral prints. Fuchsia and pink set the trendy tone. At Z Gallerie (zgallerie.com), find several great pieces in a zingy chrome yellow, including Maripo-

frames. Zazzle.com (zazzle.com) has a great group of photographic rose prints called the Neon Collection, tinted in sapphire, lime and purple. And if you’re up for outfitting your home office in some pumpedup hues, consider CB2’s Go-cart furniture series, which includes a rolling cart, bookcase, task lamp and desk in vibrant yellow or orange powder-coated steel. The Eclipse pillow features kaleidoscopic mod petals, and the Ska pillow has a pattern of persimmon-on-white abstract figures à la Keith Haring. Shop at www. cb2.com.

A designer’s take on la belle maison Shari Kulha Postmedia News There’s something about French style, be it a fabulously chic woman in heels on the cobblestones of Paris, or the cool carefree looks of those on the Riviera. A wave of envy washes over you like a mistral over the hills, but deconstruct it, and a formula appears. Many of us would be on our way to garnering envy, were we to be as steadfast in our morning routines, donning clothes made of exquisite fabrics with an impeccable fit; expensive shoes and bag; and sporting perfect — yet simple — hair, makeup and manicure. A new book by Erin Swift explains that this elegance exists in the French home as well, but in a more casual way than in fashion. In French Accents: At Home with Parisian Objects and Details, Swift shows that the French are confident about mixing old and new, traditional and modern, bold and subtle. A set designer and interiors stylist, Swift visited homes in France and the U.S. to capture this “ephemeral, individual and incontrovertible style.” For example, she describes the floor as “the first layer of design,” and touches lightly on each material, all natural, of course. The dining room features a mix of old and new, with 19th-century chairs hugging a traditional-looking but very current Christian Liaigre dining table, while the room itself boasts modern lines and lighting. “Decorative accents are a critical layer in French homes,” Swift writes. Under the chapter Objects and Accents, the owner of the house has used myriad de-

In French Accents: At Home with Parisian Objects and Details, Erin Swift shows that the French excel at mixing old and new, traditional and modern, bold and subtle.

Elegance exists in the French home but in a more casual way than fashion, says Erin Swift. cor objects to create interest. Objets d’art, Swift says, refer to “anything with esthetic value that doesn’t quite fall under the heading of ‘art.’” The kitchen is a good example of how to create an eye-catching space with both practical and decorative items. The large, dark Asian urn sits on a plaster church bracket from 1880, in contrast with the off-white wall but matching the warmth of

the gold-toned counter. The purple bedroom has an Old World feel, but is made up of a 1940s Louis XV-style bed, a 1900s Italian night table, a Laura Ashley brass lamp and an 1880s candle sconce. It comes together as a complete package thanks to the gilded tones in each piece. The purple is both regal and contemporary. Also included is an explanation about why the light in

Paris is just so. In part, it has to do with sunlight, filtered through the moisture in the air, bouncing around the limestone buildings to appear a cool, greyish hue. “… It becomes the lens through which all interior design must be viewed,” Swift says, and suggests that those of us trying to create our own Seine-side vibe, should tone down our chosen colours to moodier, cooler versions.

Photos: Jonny Valiant/Potter Style

Erin Swift says flooring is the first layer of design and should be all natural.

Making pretty windows practical Leanne Brownoff For Postmedia News Q: I am considering new window treatments for my fiveyear-old daughter’s bedroom. I promised to transform her “baby” decor into a big-girl theme when she started school and this is the summer I will make good on that promise. We currently have lined draperies, but they aren’t dark enough to block the evening light. She loves lacy, pretty things, so I’d like to give the windows a pretty, airy look, but I also need to block out that pesky light so she can sleep. A: Summer sun is something we all look forward to, and this late spring seems to make us appreciate it even more. However, we do all still need a good night’s sleep. I suggest a layered approach — specifically, three layers — to your dilemma. The first layer could be an inside-mount blind. Although this may not sound pretty, a wide variety of colours and subtle prints are available. An opaque, roller-style blind with blackout coating would work well to block the light in the main window, although there will still be rays of light peeking around the edges. Do not despair; that is what layer two will address. The second layer would be a fabric drapery on the back of a decorative double rod. This will be where you can express the personality

A little girl who has graduated from babyish decor still needs beauty sleep, so a three-layer window covering is perfect. of your daughter’s decor, in a solid or print that works in conjunction with her bedding. Since the blind holds the job of blocking the light, the drapery fabric can be more delicate. Make sure to use at least three or four times the width of the window, so this fabric layer will block the light that escapes the edges of the blinds. The third, sheer layer is the delicate final touch that will soften the two other “working” layers. Typically on a double rod we would

see sheer drapery used for the layer closest to the window pane, with the patterned draperies hanging inside the room. Although that is a formal look for living and dining rooms, in a bedroom the flow of sheer drapery over the second layer mutes the pattern and colours directly behind, providing a whimsical, dreamlike effect. You now have three independent layers that you can utilize as you wish. At bedtime, lower the blind and close both layers of drap-

eries to ensure no light comes into the room. During the day, you can raise the blind and have various options by pulling back one layer of drapery or both. Q: We have just purchased a character home that is full of potential. Although the original architectural detailing is fantastic, there is a space problem in both the bathroom and kitchen. Do you have some quick design ideas that will help us brighten up these rooms and best use the compact floor plan?

We won’t be doing any major renovations for a few years, but want the rooms to feel quaint in the meantime. There is dark oak flooring throughout the entire home and the fixtures and appliances are white. A: Your first goal is to maximize the space you have and remove any clutter or obstacles that hinder movement. In the kitchen, remove cupboard doors and replace them with fabric panels that can slide on a rod or be pulled or snapped to the side. Doors

can use up floor space and become a real frustration when more than one person is working. An added benefit to replacing the doors with fabric is the personality that the fabric can bring to the room. White linen would complement the white appliances and can be duplicated on the windows to complete the look. As part of their design, many modern kitchens opt to forgo cupboard doors all together and instead display their wares. If you choose this, take care to select wares in similar or complementary colours to avoid the space looking too busy and chaotic. Keep counters and tabletops sparsely decorated to further reduce visual clutter. These same concepts can be applied to the bathroom. Remove swinging doors and replace them with fabric. Mirrors may provide the illusion of greater space, but first make sure to keep surfaces clutter free. Clutter the first time around in a small space is bad enough, but reflected again in a mirror it’s exponentially less appealing. Keep accessories and linens consistent in colour. White linens against a subtle wall colour such as butter yellow, dove grey or soft blue will provide a fresh look and tie in the white fixtures. For a quaint look, display luxurious bath towels on a small wooden stool, topped with a fragrant sachet. The little details will make a difference in this space.
