CREATING A BACKYARD OASIS 12 NYC/LI NARI
Have you ever looked at your backyard and wondered what you could do to make it a more welcoming space? Often, we overlook our backyards and don’t really think of them as a part of our homes. But with the right decking and landscaping, you can create a backyard that will not only be the envy of the neighborhood, but will become your own personal oasis.
DECKING The modern deck has evolved from its early days as a rectangular structure that was generally built as “one size fits all.” Today’s deck designers and builders work with homeowners to understand their budget and their specific needs. They want to help you create a great-looking deck that expands, the footprint of your home. According to John Hogan of Mid-State Lumber Corp., today’s consumers are building decks that work with their homes, and their lifestyles. Platform decks, for instance, are perfect for single-level homes like ranch houses that sit on a level lot. “People are building in planters, benches and other decorative elements,” Hogan said. He added that people are often choosing more ornamental railings for their decks as well, allowing form along with function. Hogan said that second-story decks are also gaining in popularity. “These decks provide access to the outdoors to the home’s upper levels, and create a space that’s protected from the elements on the lower level.” Hogan also said that more and more people are turning to metal framing when building decks. Why? “Metal framing is much more stable than the traditional wood framing. It provides better durability and is more resistant to sagging, warping and settling,” he said. What’s more, metal framing can be installed in such a way that it offers a deck designer greater flexibility. Cantilevers and curves can be incorporated into the design, creating an aesthetically pleasing deck that adds beauty and value to the backyard space.

As for popular decking materials, they still include woods, some even trending toward the exotic hardwoods, but many of today’s homeowners are turning to materials like Trex®. “Homeowner expectations have changed over the years,” said Mark DeMarco of Trex Company. “People are not only interested in the aesthetics of their decking, they’re also concerned about the performance of the materials. A top priority for today’s homeowner is ease of maintenance.” He said that Trex is a composite decking material that provides low maintenance and high performance. It resists fading and staining, does not warp, rot or split, resists mold, mildew and termites and is splinter free. “Homeowners can easily clean a Trex deck with soap and water,” he said. Trex offers a full range of decking and outdoor products, so homeowners are able to achieve a complete, harmonizing design, from the deck floor to the railings, and even outdoor storage.

BACKYARD AMENITIES
FLORALS
Would you like to be able to entertain your friends and families in your own backyard, without having to run in and out of the house the entire time? You can! Many people are opting to build in entertainment spaces into their backyard redesign. “Homeowners are bringing the kitchen outdoors,” Hogan said, adding that people want much more than the barbecue grill on their deck these days. “Full gas ranges, smokers, refrigeration, sinks, bars – people are incorporating all of these into their deck design.” Storage cabinets and drawers can be included, built-in using the same materials as the decking for seamless design.
When adding flowers to your backyard oasis, it can be hard to know how to plot out your floral space for maximum impact all season long. Joe Cerbone, owner of JLC Landscape & Tree Service of Westhampton, N.Y., provided a few rules of thumb for plotting out your perennial bed: • Plant for seasonal bloom; as one
perennial finishes another starts. • Larger leaf textures are used in the
background, while finer leaf textures are used in the foreground. • Use low-medium height plants in the
foreground and taller varieties in the center and background. • Many newer varieties of perennials flower
for up to five weeks, for longer enjoyment. Cerbone added that working with an expert designer can help ensure that you enjoy a garden that has been specially planted to flower from late spring into early fall.
www.nari-ny.org 15
PONDS AND FOUNTAINS
HEDGEROWS AND FENCING
Want to create a backyard space that’s beautiful, peaceful and relaxing? Just add water! Cerbone said that ponds, streams, waterfalls, pondless waterfalls and fountains enhance the overall look and feel a property and help to transform the mood and feeling of the space. “Water features help create a tranquil setting to relax, have a glass of wine, or just be mesmerized by the action of moving water,” he said, adding that water features make a “big impact in a small space.” You might be concerned, though, that adding a pond or a fountain is going to mean more maintenance time for you. Not so, according to Cerbone.
“Privacy planting is the most popular type of planting – property owners often are looking to divide their space visually, for a sound barrier, or functionally,” said Cerbone. “Hedgerows have always been a very popular way of dividing space.” He added that property owners often choose one type of plant to use as the hedgerow, but people are also choosing to mix evergreen and deciduous trees and shrubs. And, an option growing in popularity includes a mix of fencing and hedgerows. “An example we often see is a four-foot green turkey wire fence, set between a privet hedge and western arborvitae. This provides for a very dense hedgerow all year.”
“Once a water feature is professionally installed, it can be easily maintained, usually once a month during the growing season,” he said. “This typically applies to ponds and waterfalls; recirculating fountains do not require much maintenance at all, usually just checking to see if additional water needs to be added due to splash and evaporation from the sun.” Cerbone also added that to further enhance the beauty of your water feature, consider adding aquatic plants inside the pond or on the edge. A certified aquascape contractor can help you choose the right plants for your pond, fountain or waterfall, and show you how to properly maintain them.
16 NYC/LI NARI
DeMarco added that, along with advancements in decking material, the same advancements have been made in fencing. Trex, for example, has created a fencing line made from the same material as their decking, and offers the same ease of maintenance. Trex fencing can easily be cleaned with soap, hot water and a soft brush. Trex fencing will naturally weather, which is a normal process. The weathering process doesn’t affect the fencing’s durability – actually, it adds to the fencing’s look and character.
SMALL BACKYARDS But what if your backyard is so small; you can’t begin to imagine how you’d ever create a beautiful space there? “Small spaces often offer many opportunities for usable and beautiful space,” Cerbone said. “Border the perimeter with a tight-growing evergreen like emerald arborvitae, and layer plants down from the perimeter creating interesting levels.” He added that a recirculating fountain allows for the tranquility of a water feature in a small space, and that landscape lighting can enhance the area as well. “Landscape lighting can be installed to highlight your water feature and add depth to the perimeter to extend your outdoor space well into the evening,” Cerbone said.

Spa Experience Creating a
in Your Home Bath
The bathroom is probably one of the least glamorous spaces in your house, especially if you’re living in an older home and the bath hasn’t been renovated for some time. It’s true that in the past, function definitely trumped form when it came to the home’s restroom facilities. As long as the room had a working bath, toilet and sink, not much else was taken into consideration. It was with the advent of the Jacuzzi tub that people began to think of the bathroom as perhaps something more. The modern bathroom has evolved even further to provide a home spa experience, from the design of the room, to the types of fixtures installed, to the lighting.
“People are continuing to gravitate toward spa-like bathrooms,” said David Finkel of Ferguson Enterprises, Inc. “They want a comfortable place to unwind. As a result, consumers are taking cues from upscale hotels and resorts featuring high-tech bathrooms,” he said, adding that such items as recessed mirror TVs, free standing statement bathtubs, showers with steam units and other therapies, as well as ceiling mounted showerheads that produce a rain-like effect, are being requested more often. “Shower systems are now easily customizable to fit the exact needs of the end user,” Finkel said. Maria Sergio, principal designer at Showcase Baths of Manhasset, N.Y., offered that the spa experience is further enhanced by the design of the bathroom space. “Mixed elements are essential,” Sergio said, offering that an aesthetically pleasing space combines such elements as wood, metal, glass and stone. She also said that visual texture helps to add dimension to the space, along with light colored stone and cool tones accented with a deep, vivid color. “There isn’t just one way to achieve function and style,” Sergio offered. “I encourage clients to make the most of their accessories.” For instance, hotel racks with clean, modern lines and decorative baskets can provide attractive storage for towels. “You can add pops of color by rolling towels like you’d see in a spa,” she said, adding that lighting like sconces add warmth to the bathroom space. www.nari-ny.org 21

Kevin Wrynn of Kevin Wrynn Carpentry, Inc. of East Meadow, N.Y. agreed that bathroom lighting is evolving from the staid vanity lighting that has been popular for years. “Ornamental lighting like wall sconces and even chandeliers are now being installed in the bathroom,” he said, adding that people are also choosing the more natural, more efficient light provided by LED fixtures, as well as path lighting installed underneath cabinetry. For bathrooms that may not have any outside natural lighting at all, Wrynn offered that skylights could be a good fit. He also said that another way people are enhancing their bathroom experience is by building in comfort and ease of accessibility when they remodel. “People are adding seats in their showers, as well as grab bars that help with safety,” he said. What are bathroom designers and remodelers seeing as trends, and what are some of their favorite elements to incorporate into a beautiful, relaxing bath? For Sergio, the answer is written in stone. “I love to incorporate real stone into a bathroom design,” she said. “Stone is very elegant and timeless, and the beauty is in how it wears.” Wrynn offered that light, airy spaces provide a beautiful bath experience. “White is making a comeback,” he said. “We’re seeing white marble with a grey veining, and neutrals and beiges. Glass tiles are being used more often, too. People are adding a burst of color with their accessories.” Finkel agreed that white is popular, along with chrome and nickel fixture finishes, adding that people are starting to show an interest in some new fixture finishes as well. “There is a lot of interest in some of the new finishes like Cyprum from Dornbracht, a rose-colored metal, and uncoated brass,” Finkel said. He added people also are looking to enhance the spa experience. “There is a lot of excitement around therapeutic options in the bathroom,” he said. “Beyond the traditional tub, sink and toilet, steam systems and digital shower systems that provided a personalized hydrotherapy experience are popular choices for creating the at-home spa.” The most relaxing bathroom space is, of course, the one that you create that reflects your personal tastes and style. When you choose a NARI member to help you with your bathroom design and remodeling project, you’ll know that you’re working with someone uniquely qualified to help you get the best bathroom remodel for your budget – work with one of our members, and you’ll be enjoying a great spa experience, right in your own home, in no time!

“Wall hung vanities free up floor space, and recessed shelving that’s been built into the walls gives the room more depth.” KEVIN WRYNN, KEVIN WRYNN CARPENTRY, INC.
“A shower stall will always open up a room, making it look expansive and creating an illusion of more space. Choose a glass enclosure with tile walls for a beautiful backdrop inside.”
Keeping the color scheme light and airy, making good use of mirrors and lighting, and tempering with deeper accent colors all help when you’re working within the constraints of a tiny room. Not sure how to make the most of your small bathroom? A NARI professional can help.

HVAC
Innovations Keep You on the Cutting Edge of Comfort
“In the last five years, there have been more changes in heating and air conditioning than there have been in the last 30.”
26 NYC/LI NARI
IT MAY VERY WELL BE THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF YOUR HOME, BUT IT’S ALSO THE ONE YOU PROBABLY THINK ABOUT THE LEAST – YOUR HEATING, VENTILATION AND AIR CONDITIONING, OR HVAC, SYSTEM.
In fact, as long as you’re comfortable and your utility bills are manageable, why think about it, right? Well, it may be something you want to take into consideration sooner than later, especially if your system is more than 10 years old. That’s because right now, HVAC is on the cutting edge of technological breakthroughs, and not thinking about your system might mean you’re using more energy – and spending more money – than you need to be. According to Kerry O’Brien, president of T.F. O’Brien Cooling & Heating of New Hyde Park, N.Y., today’s HVAC has evolved rapidly in just a few years. “In the last five years, there have been more changes in heating and air conditioning than there have been in the last 30,” O’Brien said. “Today’s home comfort systems are really changing both efficiency levels and comfort levels.” He added that much of this surge in innovation comes on the heels of a new attitude toward home efficiency and comfort that goes beyond new advances in equipment. “Today, people are thinking about how they can improve their entire living space by taking into account a whole-house model,” he said.
“Today’s technology is much more sophisticated, and much more integrated into the homeowner’s lifestyle.” WI-FI THERMOSTATS INNOVATIVE HVAC SYSTEM GOING GREEN
O’Brien explained that the whole-house model encompasses an energy evaluation of the home, based on a variety of factors, including the age of the home. “In houses built pre-1960, energy efficiency wasn’t really a consideration,” he said. In these older homes, simply replacing an HVAC system might not be the ideal way to improve energy efficiency and comfort levels. O’Brien said that other items like insulation values, zoning, ductwork, sealing and windows also need to be evaluated, and if needed, upgraded, repaired or replaced. He explained that many times, once these other issues are accounted for, homeowners find that they actually need a smaller HVAC system to manage their home comfort needs – and that can save them on utilities. O’Brien said that on the heating side of HVAC innovations, the real story is the evolution of motors. “Today’s motors are variable speed, making them much more efficient and quieter,” he said. By using variable speed motors, furnaces and boilers modulate depending on the heating demands of the home, rather than operate at one constant speed. “This provides homeowners with a better level of comfort,” he said. O’Brien also said that similar advances have been made in the world of air conditioning, with more and more systems utilizing variable speed compressors. These compressors work to cool the home much the same way variable speed motors heat the home, providing only the level of cooling necessary. Aside from advancements in the inner workings of home comfort equipment, O’Brien said that modern thermostats and controls are also changing the way people use their HVAC systems. “Today’s technology is much more sophisticated, and much more integrated into the homeowner’s lifestyle,” he said. For instance, Wi-Fi thermostats are becoming more and more popular, with brands like Nest, ecobee, Carrier and Honeywell at the forefront of this technology.

Today, people are thinking about how they can improve their entire living space by taking into account a whole-house model.
These smart thermostats can be controlled no matter where you might be – right at the touch of your Smartphone. “One thermostat is even capable of geosensing,” O’Brien said, explaining that it knows when you’re coming home via your cell phone’s GPS – and controls your indoor climate accordingly. “Different manufacturers offer different technologies. We can help you choose the smart thermostat that best suits your needs and lifestyle.” With the trend toward going greener, today’s homeowner is looking for a comfort system that provides them with not only indoor climate control, but also reduced energy consumption. Looking at the modern HVAC system from a whole house perspective, today’s HVAC technicians not only provide repair, maintenance and installation,

but energy evaluations and sophisticated solutions that improve home comfort and leave behind a smaller carbon footprint in the process.

Closets Overflowing? CONSIDER A RENOVATION.
– those spaces in your home that you can jam-pack with everything to the point of overflowing, and then just shut the door. Out of sight, out of mind, right? CLOSETS

Until you have to find something you need, and then your closet goes from a convenient hiding place to an all-out nightmare! What if you could maximize your closet space and get more organized, just with a few simple closet renovations? You can, when you consider working with a custom closet professional. Photos Courtesy of Anthony’s Closets
“Custom closets bridge the gap between design and function,” said Bill Kahn, partner at Symmetry Closets of Farmingdale, N.Y. “If your day starts off disorganized and you can’t find what you need, that carries over into the rest of your day,” he said. “Knowing where everything is helps to take some of the stress out of your life, and sets the tone for your day.” Kahn explained that one of the main focuses of his company is helping people – creating the closet space itself is secondary to actually working with clients to fulfill their needs and wants. John Sacco of Anthony’s Custom Closets in Yaphank, N.Y. added that part of that includes working within client budgets. “We offer custom closets to accommodate different budgets,” Sacco said. He said he can help people choose materials and amenities that will help them get what they need for their lifestyle while staying within their price range. “ Kahn agreed. “We’re always budget-conscious. We take everything into consideration; from the space the customer has, to the closet contents, to their time and the cost. We want to help people create storage areas they’re proud of.” When helping a customer create their custom closet space, there are a few general rules of thumb a good custom closet builder will take into account. As discussed above, budget is always of primary concern, because everything evolves from there – scope of project, materials used and accessories included. But beyond budget, how does a contractor begin to understand the needs of the customer? “Before we do anything, we sit
down and have a consultation with our clients,” Kahn said. “Closets are very private spaces for people. We want to make sure people feel comfortable having us help them with their needs.” Your closet expert will have a few questions they may ask when beginning your custom closet process.
“There’s always something we can do to help you improve your closet functionality.” www.nari-ny.org 35

WHAT DO YOU HAVE?
WHAT MATERIAL ARE YOU CONSIDERING?
Clients need to make a full assessment of the items currently in the closet to be renovated. “You’ll want to have an idea of what you have, and what you want to keep, and what you should keep,” Kahn said, adding that if you’re not wearing it – get rid of it. “If it’s an outfit or shoes you haven’t worn in more than a year, give it away.” He said weeding out items like clothing, shoes and accessories on a seasonal basis is something he does himself, and always recommends to clients.
According to both Kahn and Sacco, Melamine is currently a very popular choice for closet systems. Melamine is a durable laminate that provides a long lasting, attractive finish. There are many colors and styles to choose from, including wood tones and solid finishes. Kahn said that right now, grey seems to be trending, along with richer cherry color choices. Sacco said shades of chocolate
WHAT’S YOUR SPACE?
Are you building a new house? One of the last things people think about when building – and one of the things people complain most often about afterward – is the closet space in their new home. Decide up front what types of closets you’ll want in each room. “I ask people if they’re considering a walk-in closet, or a reach-in, and what they plan to store in the closet,” Sacco said.

“ Custom closet solutions help create order out of the chaos.” seem to be currently popular among his clients. Wood and wire closet systems are also options that can be explored. WHAT EXTRAS WOULD YOU LIKE?
Today’s closets go beyond a bar for hanging your clothes. Sacco said some of the closet spaces he’s worked on include shelves, drawers, pullouts and

baskets. Kahn said he’s built in hampers, jewelry trays, belt racks, tie racks, valet rods and slide-out mirrors that pivot. “The trick is making sure everything in the closet is easily accessible,” Kahn said. “Our goal is for everything to have its place.” And, closet renovations aren’t limited to your bedroom – kitchens, baths and even garages can benefit from improved closet spaces. “There’s always something we can do to help you improve your closet functionality,” Sacco said, adding that his company has created unique solutions for clients that have included turning an attic into a master closet. “We help you maximize your space while maintaining your own personal sense of style,” Kahn added. “Custom closet solutions help create order out of the chaos.” If you’re considering renovating your current closet space – or building a new one – a custom closet expert can help.

Our client had originally owned the duplex apartment in the front of this town house (1st and 2nd floor). Once the studio apartment on the 2nd floor in the rear of the town house was placed on the market, they immediately purchased it to combine with their existing space. This apartment would become the extension of the apartment for entertaining and guests, as there was a kitchen and dining room in the front duplex. The challenge was going to be for our cabinet manufacturer flying into the United States from Europe. To take detailed and precise measurements of all walls, ceiling heights, window opening and doorway in order to create shop drawings. All millwork was custom built in England and there was going to be no room for error. From its travel over the Atlantic, passing through customs, delivered to the building and carried up 2 flights of stairs it all needed to be perfect. The 2 tone wood combination of tiger birch and mahogany gives definition and shows the depth of layering. All fixtures are gold plated, from the chandelier, to the recessed light trims even the custom screw less plate covers are gold. The goal was to transform this empty room into true elegance‌

The original kitchen space was divided into a small area for cooking and a laundry room. When doing the design we realized that if we moved the washer and dryer to the garage with access from the kitchen we would almost double the work space for the kitchen and still have space for a table and chairs. The space now looks huge compared to the way it was. There is a lot more cabinet and counter space as well as an eating area. We enlarged the doorway to the dining room and the open doorway makes it look even more spacious. The extended counter and hanging lighting add more work space as well and another casual eating area. To keep within the budget set by the owners we incorporated stock cabinets, basic flooring, granite and ceramic tile.
