Hollywood Regency Mostly As Bring on the drama with a striking crystal chandelier that catches the eye and makes a statement. Historically one of the most common styles, the glittering prisms and dancing light that gleam from crystal chandeliers have long perpetuated their status as a symbol of wealth, luxury and grandeur. An elegant waterfall chandelier in the great room or spiral raindrop chandelier in the grand foyer are sure to evoke a sense of glamour.
Victorian Mostly Bs Take a note from the history books and infuse an air of timeless elegance into your living room, dining room, library or home office with an elaborate Victorian chandelier. Characterized by heavy and ornate details, these lavish fixtures are often crafted of brass or iron with decorative arms and delicate filigree leading to candles with bobeches or embellished glass shades. In many cases, they are further adorned with crystal chains, pendants or drapery to enhance to their opulence.
Rustic Mostly Cs Slow down the pace and give your home a touch of soul with a Rustic-style chandelier. Inspired by simplicity and the rugged beauty of the outdoors, rustic chandeliers often integrate raw elements, such as wood, copper, wrought iron and antlers into their designs to bring about an organic and romantic atmosphere. A classic candle chandelier or wagon wheel variety that illuminates a warm and inviting glow would be ideal to introduce a tranquil mood in the kitchen or living room.
Boho Chic Mostly Ds Feel the laid-back energy and eclectic vibes a boho chic chandelier can elicit in the home. Intricate patterns, tactile textures and natural materials are popular trends for these novel chandeliers; think wooden beads, woven macramé and colorful Murano glass. A unique empire or drum chandelier adorned with beaded details in soft natural tones would be perfect to inspire a bohemian aesthetic to a living room or den.
Modern Mostly Es Opt for an emphasis on Scandinavian simplicity, functionality and form with a sleek and timeless Modern chandelier. Defined by clean lines, geometric shapes and minimalist designs, these chandeliers rebel against the lavishness of traditional styles and tend to incorporate very few details. They can range in a wide variety of materials but are often finished in a single-toned metal like brushed silver or chrome. Bring a fresh and sophisticated ambiance to any room with a funky starburst or mobile chandelier.
Industrial Mostly Fs Minimalist and utilitarian, rugged and captivating, Industrial chandeliers employ sleek metals and often repurposed manufacturing elements that can give a space a cool and trendy vibe. Caged lighting, pipe fittings and vintage light bulbs are all hallmarks of this style and stir up an image of lighting that may have been used in a factory setting. A linear chandelier with a row of Edison-style bulbs surrounded by an open and rectangular steel frame would be absolutely fitting above a kitchen island.

BROKER Q&A
Alan Atchley: BHGRE Atchley Properties With his strong passion for both the real estate industry and marketing, Alan Atchley and his firm focus on exceeding expectations and achieving positive results. How did you start in real estate? Upon graduating the University of Florida in 1992 with a degree in Marketing, I interviewed with a real estate developer in Sarasota, FL. Upon accepting the position as Director of Marketing and Sales, I immediately proceeded with getting my real estate license and became a student to learning everything I could about the area, new home building and development, and about real estate in general. This position of two years led to a position as Vice President of Sales and Marketing with a large national home builder and developer. During my 10+ years here, I went on to obtain a general contractors license, a real estate broker’s license and became the second highest producer of real estate closings for new home construction in a two-county area.
What path has your career taken? In 2007, the economy in the U.S., especially Florida, was experiencing a recession. People were out of work, short sales had become a common theme in the Sarasota/Bradenton area and the number of home owners losing their homes through foreclosures were at an all-time high. As a

Whisky or Whiskey
A closer look at distinguishing qualities between Scotch and Bourbon Throughout the world, there are several types of whisky, or whiskey; though among them all, Scotch and bourbon are two of the most beloved varieties. And while they do share some commonalities, their differences are immense, from the ingredients and flavor profiles to the distillation and aging process.

Aging Generally speaking, bourbon does not have a minimum aging requirement, although, for a spirit to have the distinction of a ‘straight bourbon,’ it must be aged for at least two years. In addition, any bourbon aged less than four years must include an age statement on its label. Bourbon whiskey must also, by law, be aged in new charred oak barrels, which greatly contributes to the color characteristics and aging process. This is a key difference in that Scotch distilleries have a large amount of freedom in choosing from a range of casks for which to age their spirits, including those which formerly contained wine, port, sherry and cognac, among others. This wide selection of vessels is part of tradition and allows distillers greater creative experimentation, having given rise to the method of finishing Scotch in secondary barrel; a common practice used today. And while several Scotch whiskies are aged for as many as 12, 15 and even 25 years, the minimum years for which a Scotch must be aged is three years.
Kentucky’s hotter climate results in more of the whiskey evaporating away as “the angel’s share” than is the case in Edinburgh, so aging a barrel of whiskey in Kentucky for 25 years produces far less whiskey than would be the case in Scotland, and therefore a more rarefied product. Flavor Bourbon’s high proportion of corn lends the spirit to have a sweeter flavor profile compared to that of many other whiskeys, especially Scotch. Without the elements of added flavors or coloring, much of a bourbon’s character relies heavily upon the charred surface of new oak barrels from which it often develops oaky, vanilla and caramel notes. Scotch is much more complex and boasts a greater range of flavors than bourbon, given the wider cask selection, opportunity for blends and the age-old regions throughout Scotland renowned for flavors distinct to them. Whiskies that come from the Highlands and Speyside are better known for a lighter, fruitier and sweeter profile than that of a robust, smoky and peaty beast from Islay. The Lowlands often produce mellow drams with floral tones, and the peninsula of Campbeltown is noted for the dryness and sometimes pungency of its Scotch.
“When it comes to sipping whiskey and trying to pull out as many attributes as possible, I recommend a tulip-shaped glass. It’s important to be able to focus on the aromas as they leave the glass, which the tulip shape allows the volatile notes to do, as opposed to a rocks glass which does not focus on such notes.” — Elizabeth McCall, Assistant Master Distiller, Woodford Reserve
