continually seeking new ways to refresh their living spaces. Here are some of the latest trends in home décor and interior design that are shaping stylish homes today.
Biophilic design is all about bringing the outdoors inside. This trend emphasizes the use of natural elements like plants, wood, and stone to create a calming and rejuvenating atmosphere.
Vertical gardens, large potted plants, and natural textures are key components, promoting a connection to nature and enhancing overall wellbeing.
After years of minimalist, neutral palettes, bold colors and patterns are making a comeback. Vibrant hues like deep blues, rich greens, and warm terracottas are being used to create dramatic statements.
Sustainability remains a significant focus in home décor. Designers and homeowners are opting for eco-friendly materials such as reclaimed wood, bamboo, recycled metals, and organic fabrics. This trend not only reduces environmental impact but also brings unique, often handcrafted, elements into the home.
Patterned wallpapers, bold tiles, and colorful textiles add personality and energy to any space.
With more people working from home, multifunctional spaces have become essential. Furniture that serves multiple purposes, like sofa beds, extendable tables, and storage ottomans, helps maximize space. Home offices that can easily transform into guest rooms or study areas for children are increasingly popular.
Vintage and retro styles are enjoying a resurgence, bringing nostalgic charm and unique character to modern homes. Midcentury modern furniture, vintage light fixtures, and retro color palettes offer a timeless appeal. Mixing vintage pieces with contemporary design creates a balanced and eclectic look.
Smart home technology continues to evolve, seamlessly integrating into home décor. Voicecontrolled assistants, smart lighting, and automated climate control systems are now designed to be both functional and aesthetically pleasing. These technologies enhance convenience while blending into modern interiors.
By embracing these latest trends in home décor and interior design, homeowners can create spaces that are not only stylish and contemporary but also functional and re ective of their personal tastes. Whether through bold colors, sustainable materials, or smart technology, the possibilities for enhancing home interiors are endless.

SAVE YOUR PIPES THIS WINTER SAVE YOUR PIPES THIS WINTER
INSULATE
THE
HOME.
The average cost to repair damage from burst pipes is in the thousands. Preparing ahead of time to avoid these catastrophes can save you money and save you from added stress during the holidays. Be proactive and have a plumber come check out your pipes and plumbing before the weather regularly drops below freezing. Additionally, the following tips can also help homeowners looking to be proactive about pipe damage:
INSULATE THE PIPES. There are many products on the market to add insulation to your pipes, and many others a plumber can install for you. Heat tape, pipe sleeves, and heat cable are easy, low-cost options that will add an extra level of protection when temperatures are low.
A plumber will be able to recommend areas in your home that need added insulation, but you might need to hire another contractor to install the insulation. Areas such as attics, basements and crawl spaces can develop leaks and cracks over time. Insulating these areas will maintain warmer temperatures. Don’t forget to check around the foundation of the home as well –cracks can let cold air in, which will negatively affect the pipes under your house.
Winter is tough enough on your wallet as is. Between gifts for the holidays, travel and heating costs, this time of year can hit your bank account hard. If you add in pipe damage or other plumbing issues brought on by the
LET THE WATER DRIP. When temperatures are expected to really drop, allow cold water to drip from your faucets. Standing water can freeze more easily than moving water, so
issues from developing. You don’t need to leave the faucets gushing all day and all night, a small, slow drip is enough.
MONITOR THE THERMOSTAT. Make sure your home’s temperature doesn’t dip below 55 degrees, especially if you plan on traveling for the holidays. Set your thermostat before leaving for the day or your trip. A dip in temperature can increase the chances of frozen plumbing.
OPEN
THE
CABINETS.
Chances are, you have a pipe going from the sink that is housed under the vanity. These areas are more susceptible to damage from a temperature drop. By keeping cabinets open, you’ll allow heat to circulate into the cabinet, keeping the pipes warm.
Reach out to your local plumber for a comprehensive check of your pipes before the brunt of winter really hits. By doing so, and following these tips, you’ll be more worry-free this winter and holiday season.

Nova Scotia’s voice of real estate celebrates 25 years
The Nova Scotia Association of REALTORS® (NSAR) has made remarkable progress over the past 25 years, becoming a leading force in Nova Scotia's real estate industry. NSAR has adopted the role of being one voice for the industry in Nova Scotia and is dedicated to supporting its members through education, training, advocacy, and administration of the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in the province. On April 14, 2000, Cape Breton, Halifax-Dartmouth, Highland, Northern, and South Shore Boards merged with the Nova Scotia Real Estate Association (NSREA) to become the Nova Scotia Association of REALTORS®. The remaining two boards joined the association later.
Reflecting on NSAR's evolution, Mary MacDonald, NSAR's first president, found that since her Presidency, "technology has been one of the biggest changes to occur, from having to hire persons to take photos of the properties to now being able to do them ourselves and using equipment such as drones.”
Looking ahead, Andrew Gilroy, NSAR’s current president, shared that his time as president has been shaped by meaningful engagement with members. "Throughout my time of being president over the last year, I have had the chance to engage with members from all the regions and have had a chance to connect with them one on one,” says Gilroy.
As we have progressed through the years, NSAR has gained over 2,100 members who subscribe to a high standard of service and a strict code of ethics and will continue to uphold this standard.
The Association, through an agreement with the Nova Scotia Real Estate Commission, provides all real estate licensing courses in the province.
