Another thing to argue about:

Throw Pillows Throw pillows — an easy, inexpensive way to change a room's look — have their detractors

By MELISSA

KOSSLER DUTTON Associated Press

It's a well-known decorating fact that throw pillows are an easy and inexpensive way to change the look of a room. They can add color, texture, interest or a dash of holiday cheer.

But that doesn't mean everybody appreciates them.

Pillow

Continued from Page 4

The internet is full of women (and their interior designers) complaining that husbands don't understand the decorative aspects of throw pillows. Pillow aversion among men is a real thing, says pillow designer Elaine Smith.

"It's become a joke, but it's only a joke because it's true. They don't understand why we need to have eight pillows on the bed," she says.

LOVE 'EM OR HATE 'EM

Bill Herren designs pillows as part of his job as creative director for Woodard, an outdoor furniture manufacturer in Coppell, Texas.

"I get such grief from everybody about my throw pillows because I love my throw pillows," he says. "I know why men hate them: They don't want to put them back."

The anti-throw-pillow crowd also might not know what to do with the pillows once they remove them from a piece of furniture, says Herren, who introduces a new pillow shape each year for the company's collection. His solution: "Just throw them on the floor — especially those made with outdoor fabrics. They're so easy to clean."

DROP ZONE

If you don't want throw pillows to end up on the floor, provide a "drop space" for them, says Suzanne Lasky, an interior designer and owner of S Interior Design in Scottsdale, Arizona.

A bench at the foot of the bed, a basket near the couch or a side chair would all do, she said.

Material Matters F

FAMILY FEATURES

or many homeowners, aesthetics and function are the primary considerations of a kitchen renovation. However, before you lay out your space and start selecting colors, there is another essential factor to explore: the materials you will use for each feature.

In fact, there are numerous factors to consider as you narrow down your options.

Giving special attention to the material composition of your kitchen, particularly when it comes to the aspects that take the heaviest use â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the floors, sink and countertops â&#x20AC;&#x201C; can help ensure your renovation stands the test of time.

10 H O M E M A R K E T JANUARY 2018

Flooring

overall aesthetic, with slimmer boards lending a more modern look. Color is also a consideration, as you’ll need to determine whether you want to match, complement or contrast your cabinetry.

If something a little less traditional is more your speed, an option like footfriendly cork or a modern take on vinyl may be more to your liking.

Though often taken for granted, the floor is generally the kitchen feature that sustains the heaviest use over time. Whether your tastes tend toward tile, wood or another option altogether, there are still numerous variables to explore.

Tile is an excellent choice for the kitchen because it stands up well to the heavy traffic and spills common in that space.

However, tile can also be slippery and can be uncomfortable if you spend long amounts of time on your feet in the kitchen.

Ceramic tile is the easiest to install but not as resistant to damage as porcelain or stone tile. The latter options require more skilled installation, and stone especially tends to be more expensive. You’ll also need to pay attention to factors like water resistance and texture, both of which affect safety and how easily the floors can be cleaned.

When it comes to wood, one of the first decisions is whether you prefer engineered or solid hardwood. Engineered versions tend to offer greater durability and flexibility in installation while the texture and appearance of solid hardwood are its strongest appeals. Other variables include the wood type, which further affects the look and strength. Oak is most common, but other traditional selections include options like maple or cherry and specialty woods like teak or bamboo. Plank width influences

Selecting a Sink

Materials aside, there are many factors to consider when choosing the right sink to complete your new kitchen.

Sink Identifying the shape and size of the sink you need can help narrow down the options for this aspect of the renovation, but considering the abuse this vessel endures, this is one place the material is especially important.

Classic stainless steel is not only practical, it’s also extremely versatile. It complements any kitchen and is a favorite of enthusiastic cooks and designers alike.

While stainless steel’s neutral color and sleek looks work with a wide range of kitchen styles, it’s most often found in contemporary, professional-style kitchens.

This classic, durable material lives up to its name. Hot pans won’t hurt it, and it’s less likely than harder materials to damage delicate dishware that may slip from your grip.

If you’re looking to make a statement, an enameled cast iron sink may be the answer.

These sinks withstand whatever your family dishes out, from heavy pots to searing skillets, and with a range of colors to choose

Top-mount sinks extend above the countertop surface.

This type is the easiest to install and is often used with laminate counters.

Under-mount sinks are mounted beneath the countertop, making it easy to sweep debris off the counter.

They are most commonly used with solid-surface, stone and quartz countertops.

Apron-front sinks, also known as farmhouse sinks, are notable for their attractive front panel or apron. This style can be mounted under or on top of the counter.

A tile-in sink is specially designed for installation in a tile countertop and can be grouted as if it were another tile for a clean look similar to that of an under-mount sink.

Countertops In a bustling kitchen, hot pots, sharp edges and spills mean the counters can take a real beating. That’s what makes stone a favorite choice for this surface. Natural stone like granite or quartz is hardy, but engineered options offer even greater resilience. Options like marble or limestone deliver beauty similar to natural stone but these softer materials require more care and caution.

Concrete and wood are popular and stylish alternatives, but their susceptibility to stains and other imperfections may make them impractical for a busy family. For the budget-conscious renovation, there are ample options in laminate, which falls in the mid-range for durability, to achieve an eyecatching look for less.

Bowl Configuration

Installation

from, you can go bold with deep hues, be subtle with pale tones or choose a finish that adds dimensional character.

When your kitchen requires both rich color and a rock solid design, a composite sink will deliver. An option like Kohler’s Cairn sink offers a transitional style to suit contemporary and traditional kitchens alike, but it’s also made of Neoroc, a matte-finish composite material designed for extreme durability and unmatched beauty. Richly colored to complement any countertop, Neoroc resists scratches, stains and fading and is highly heat- and impact-resistant.

Single-bowl sinks: Ideal for washing large pots and platters.

Offset bowl sinks: Provide separation for washing and rinsing, typically with one large and one small bowl.

Double-equal sinks: Separate bowls offer versatile workspace, with the option for extra-deep bowls.

Smart Divide sinks: Available exclusively from Kohler, these sinks feature dividers half the height of conventional doublebowl sinks for the openness of a single bowl and the function of a double bowl.

Accessories Sink accessories add another level of function and convenience.

Choose from a wide range of practical options, such as sink racks, baskets, cutting boards, caddies and colanders. Other accessory selections such as soap dispensers and sponge holders aid in cleaning and organization.

DECK DESIGN 101 Tips for planning a perfect outdoor oasis

T

FAMILY FEATURES

iming can be everything, especially when it comes to planning an outdoor living space. By getting a jumpstart on planning, you can afford yourself time to complete the process with maximum creativity and minimal stress.

Try these expert tips and tricks of the trade to help make your dream deck a reality.

Lay a Solid Foundation

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t skimp on the substructure. Often overlooked, the substructure can have tremendous impact on performance and appearance. For maximum strength and stability, opt for steel framing over wood in order to achieve a consistently flat decking surface. Wooden substructures can split, warp

18 H O M E M A R K E T JANUARY 2018

and shift over time, leading to an uneven surface in the deck boards. Dimensionally stable steel offers durability benefits over wood, plus greater design flexibility, sustainability, safety and fire resistance.

Get the Right Tools

In addition to magazines, TV shows and social platforms offer outdoor living ideas and inspiration. There are also a number of online tools designed to help guide you through the planning process, such as the Trex Deck Starter, which can help anyone at the outset of their deck building adventures. It provides a userfriendly way to experiment with various deck configurations and design combinations. In three simple steps, the tool can help you choose the right materials for your project and design a customized outdoor living space before ever raising a hammer.

Choose the Right Materials

When selecting materials, invest in decking that can hold up against the harshest weather and messiest cookouts. High-performance, low-maintenance composite decking offers superior durability and long-lasting looks. It can also outperform both wood and PVC alternatives over time. With a wood deck, the cost of regular sanding, staining and painting compound considerably over time. Over the life of a composite deck, the reduced maintenance costs of simple soap and water cleanings can add up to a greater return on investment – not to mention the value of all the time spent enjoying your deck rather than maintaining it.

Add Safety and Style with Railings

Railings can be one of the most visible parts of any deck so it should be considered at the same time as the deck boards. A good rule of thumb is to use the “three C’s,” which are: coordinate, contrast, customize. For example, crisp white posts and black aluminum balusters coordinate beautifully with gray deck boards, delivering an elegant look and feel. For a beachy vibe, opt for a contrasting look with all-white railings. Or go completely custom with sleek, black aluminum railings to create a space that’s both modern and inviting.

Incorporate Personal Touches with Accessories

Have fun exploring the many design elements that are available for customizing your deck. Things like built-in seating, planters and storage, as well as addons such as a pergola or outdoor furniture, which can add comfort, character and convenience to your outdoor living space. Further personalize your space with a variety of deck and landscape lighting fixtures. Set up path lights to brighten walkways and use spotlights to showcase trees and architectural features. Easy to install and energy efficient, an option like Trex Landscape Lighting can help keep your outdoor enjoyment going long after the sun goes down.

For more inspiration and tips for designing your dream deck, visit Trex.com.

DESIGNING YOUR OUTDOOR SPACE Before any work can get done on the deck of your dreams, designing comes first. It’s important to have a plan in mind before diving in so that you have a vision of what you want your deck to become.

For example, you might envision your deck as a spacious place to host family and friends with room to mingle, while others may prefer a small, quiet space for reading a book or enjoying the peace of the outdoors. Different sizes, shapes, colors and other factors can all have an outsized impact on the final look of your deck, so take all factors into account before getting started.

Try these starting points for the ultimate deck design:

Choose a Deck Plan

From classic rectangle to beveled-edge to scenic overlook, an online tool like the Trex Deck Starter features a library of proven, ready-tobuild deck designs. For a space that defies pre-made plans, you can also opt to create a custom deck plan to fit the layout of your home.

Choose Your Color

The right decking color can enhance your yard’s scenery, complement your home or make your deck stand out. Match your surroundings with natural tones, blend in with your home’s exterior by matching

the trim or consider bold colors like a spicy red for a deck color that pops.

Frame Your Space

The right railings can pair with your decking to safely frame your space, enhance your view and open even more design possibilities. Based on your decking color, the experts at Trex can help make it easier by offering designer-curated decking and railing duos. You can also customize your railing, making the design your own from start to finish.

No strife, no food allowed in the woman cave — Decaf tea's OK

By BETH J. HARPAZ Associated Press

NEW YORK (AP) — When people find out that I'm an empty nester with a "woman cave" in my New York City apartment, they seem to have a lot of questions. So I recently created this FAQ about it for Face-

book friends, which led to a whole other round of comments and questions.

If you're curious about woman caves or maybe you're dreaming of creating your own, here's my FAQ and the comments and responses it generated.

See CAVE — Page 21

Cave

Continued from Page 20

WOMAN CAVE FAQ

1) Where and what is this woman cave?

It is a bedroom in my apartment once occupied by children and other people who no longer live under my roof. At least at the moment, they don't.

2) Why do you need a woman cave?

Because the TV is often blaring sports in the living room (my husband lives in the apartment, too) and the kitchen's not comfy and my bedroom is for sleeping.

3) What do you do in the woman cave?

I sit on the futon and enjoy the calm. I do projects like organizing recipes. I write lists. Occasionally I nap or read. Over the years, we've had a lot of (mostly joyful) commotion in this relatively small threebedroom apartment â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including a few periods when we had five people living there, sharing one bathroom â&#x20AC;&#x201D; so it's just nice to have a tranquil spot to relax now.

4) What is not allowed in the woman cave?

Food. Strife. Clutter. Noisy things. No beverages other than decaf tea.

5) What is in the woman cave?

A futon with nice pillows. A really

good reading lamp. Beautiful things that loved ones have given me: a bowl, art, scarves (one draped on the sofa, one on the wall). A coffee table with a TV and old laptop that my son set up for me so I could watch a movie or show, but so far I haven't. Bunches of lavender and mint that I picked from my windowbox after the first frost, hanging upside down to dry.

6) Do you socialize in the woman cave?

No. It's a solitary place. Though I might consider letting my friends from high school visit.

7) Is there anything missing from the woman cave?

No. It's perfect.

COMMENTS AND QUESTIONS Comment: "No food or beverages other than decaf tea?? I could forgo the food but would broaden the beverage menu."

Comment: "No cheese?"

Response: My husband once brought me a snack to be nice, but it spilled and then I had to clean it up. I just want the woman cave to be neat and clean without any effort.

Comment: "Sounds blissful. What about a few joss sticks? Or would incense be distracting?"

Response: I have a tiny lavender pillow if I need aromatherapy. That's enough.

Comment (from a neighbor): "I'd like to invite you up to my woman cave. The thing I like most about it is that it's always clean. No one else's stuff."

Response: Exactly.

Comment: "There was a commercial a while ago that called it a 'She Shack.'"

Response: That suggests disorder and crudeness. Neither is allowed in my woman cave.

Comment: "Those are practically the same rules I have for my man cave/media room."

Response: Perhaps we are descended from the same cave dwellers.

Comment: "Because my dad is severely handicapped, they created a bedroom for him downstairs in the old den of my childhood home. My mom now has the whole upstairs to herself, so she converted my sister's old bedroom into her woman cave (although she doesn't call it that)."

Response: Women give a lot to other people in their families and sometimes a small tranquil space is really essential to keep them going. My years in this apartment are often a blur from when kids were little and there were never even five minutes of quiet or an inch of privacy. Part of the trance I go into in there is just processing all the memories and the ups and downs. A room of one's own is not just a metaphor (or the name of a book).
