EDITOR’S NOTE

THERE’S NOTHING PASSIVE ABOUT BEING

ENERGY EFFICIENT There’s no getting away from it: global warming and the climate change that comes with it are negatively affecting the planet. Scorching hot summers and super-cold winters are pushing us to become more reliant on heating and cooling systems not only for our homes, but also for the commercial and public buildings in our towns and cities. This, of course, increases greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to the problem. Passive House (Passivhaus) design has been around in Europe since the late 1980s, and is now gaining ground in Canada, including here at home in B.C. There are five basic principles of this kind of construction: continuous insulation; high-performance windows and doors; an airtight building envelope; no thermal bridging; and ventilation that provides a constant supply of filtered air paired with a heat recovery system. Passive House technology applies to all construction— recreation and community centres, commercial and industrial buildings, retail, and highrises. Writer Susan M Boyce spent 10 minutes with Sarah Yada Seto discussing the costs and benefits of a Passive House, and how it could be a gamechanger for the environment.

Tucked into the heart the Fraser Heights neighbourhood, this collection of 42 luxurious, sophisticated townhomes continues to wow buyers looking for something special in the place they chose to live. “One of the features people absolutely love is the 60-inch, sideby-side fridge/freezer combination— something you just don’t find in a townhome,” says Jason Dhah, RYSE Marketing. Views, he adds, are another head-turner. “Most of our remaining homes have incredible views of the mountains to the north and the many lush, mature trees of the surrounding neighbourhood.” 10

AMENITIES FOR EVERYONE

Proximity to a wide range of urban amenities, parks and recreation, as well as terrific transit options, he adds, is yet another draw. “People are often surprised by how connected this neighbourhood is. The Riverbank trails and dog-friendly parks are mere minutes away, you can be in Vancouver in 20 minutes via TransCanada Highway, there will be three future SkyTrain Stations closer than 10-minutes away, plus the state-ofthe-art Guildford Recreation Centre is only a short drive.” Fancy some retail therapy? The Beverly has you covered in every direction: think Guildford Town Centre, the revamped Lougheed Town Centre, Willowbrook Mall, and Surrey’s Central City Mall.

Parents are also thrilled to be in the catchment area for some of the city’s top ranked schools at all levels—including both the Pacific Academy private school and Fraser Heights Secondary School which, in partnership with SFU, offers secondary school students to enroll in university-level chemistry or computer science programs through their innovative STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics) program. All this plus an ever-expanding selection of eateries and enticing pub fare to enjoy with friends while lingering by the candlelight. INTERIOR PIZZAZZ

PEACE OF MIND REVIEW YOUR FINANCES

ALISA ARAGON-LLOYD

With higher interest rates, inflation, rising prices, and economic challenges, many Canadians are feeling the financial stress. In the 2023 CMHC (Canadian Mortgage & Housing Corporation) 14

New Home + Condo Guide | Feb. 17–March 2, 2024

Mortgage Consumer Survey, it was found that: • 74 per cent of mortgage consumers are impacted or anticipate being impacted by a rise of mortgage interest rates. • 49 per cent of mortgage consumers impacted face difficulty maintaining certain debt payments, including mortgage payments. • 46 per cent of respondents said they must adjust their household budget; 24 per cent said that they have

difficulty maintaining certain debt payments such as credit card (14 per cent) and mortgage payments (10 per cent). Whether or not you are feeling similar financial issues, one of the best ways to understand where your money is going and where you can make changes, is to take control and create a monthly budget. Budgeting is a real solution to help alleviate the stress associated with money issues.

The key is to create a realistic budget based on your situation and goals. Track your spending and make your dollars go further by sticking to your budget once it’s in place. Budgeting offers a step-bystep formula to figure out how your income is compared to your spending. It also helps you review all your costs and enables you to make changes either to increase your monthly cash flow or just feel less stressed. The following are steps to help you get started: 1. DETERMINE YOUR INCOME

When creating a budget, you need to know exactly how much money you are bringing in each month and what gets deposited into your account. If you use your net income before taxes, you will end up overspending. 2. TRACK YOUR SPENDING

Once you know how much money you are bringing in each month, you will need to know what your expenses are by reviewing all your monthly bills. This gives you an idea of exactly where your money is being spent. It is important to record every expense you have, including fixed and variable expenses. Fixed expenses are items such as mortgage payments or rent, loans, strata fees, childcare, etc. Your variable expenses would be items such as groceries, gas, gifts, entertainment, and eating out. Variable expenses are typically the costs that you can cut back. You can start by averaging your costs and keeping track of all your expenses, for example, keep receipts for a month and entering it into your budget. 3. SET REALISTIC GOALS

This is key. It is critical to determine what you can live without and where you can cut costs that are realistic for your situation. Ideally, when doing a monthly budget, you can consider the 50/30/20 rule, which consists of: • 50 per cent of what you spend is for needs such as your rent, mortgage payments, utilities, car payments, groceries, gas.

• 30 per cent of your income goes to wants such as gifts, entertainment, vacations, eating out, etc. • 20 per cent of your income goes to savings or paying down debt such as an emergency fund, retirement, children’s education, credit cards, and loans. 4. MAKE A PLAN

Once you have your goals, you can plan to improve your monthly cash flow and have realistic spending limits for each of your categories. By taking a look at what is important, and then re-prioritizing, it can help you free up some cash, while at the same time, stop you from spending money on things you don’t really want or can do without. 5. ADJUST YOUR SPENDING

Once you know how much income you are bringing in each month and what you are spending it on, you can look at adjusting where you spend your money to ensure that you stay within your budget — having a realistic look at your wants and the things you can do without. This is a great time to also review your fixed expenses, such as your mortgage payments (for example, can you extend your amortization period or change your payment schedule?). Before considering this option, it is

always best to talk to a mortgage expert to see what makes the most sense for you. 6. STAY ON TRACK

It is not only about making a budget and then forgetting about it. In order to be in a better financial position and feel less stressed, tracking your budget on a monthly basis is important to catch any changes in your spending habits. It’s always a good idea to review your budget on a quarterly basis and take into account any increases in expenses or wages that may require adjustments to your original budget. There is a free, online budget planner tool from the federal government that can help. It can be found at https://itools-ioutils.fcacacfc.gc.ca/BP-PB/budget-planner

SEEING BEYOND THE LOCATION

WHAT NEW-HOME BUYERS ARE LOOKING FOR IN 2024

TIM NG

It used to be all about “location, location, location,” but in today’s landscape, the priorities and preferences of new-home buyers have shifted. As we step into 2024, buyers are taking a holistic approach that encompasses looking at the experience of the developer, utilizing guidance from seasoned real estate professionals specializing in new development sales and gathering data to make informed decisions on this significant investment. EXPERIENCED DEVELOPERS: DELIVERING THE DREAM HOME

Gone are the days when a prime location alone could seal the deal.

Today’s homebuyers are increasingly prioritizing the reputation and expertise of the developer they are purchasing from. As buyers become more discerning, they are focused on long-lasting value, and with a growing demand for homes that stand the test of time. Developers with a proven track record are gaining prominence as they bring a sense of stability and reliability to the table. Their experience not only assures buyers of quality construction but also instills confidence with their history of delivering on their promises and weathering the challenges of an ever-evolving real estate market. WORKING WITH A SEASONED REALTOR: NAVIGATING THE MARKET WITH CONFIDENCE

In the dynamic landscape of new development sales, the expertise of a specialized realtor can make a significant difference in the homebuying experience. Buying property at this stage involves a unique set of processes, timelines and intricacies that may differ from traditional real estate transactions. From understanding the details of purchase agreements and occupancy dates to navigating project timelines and potential delays, a specialized realtor acts as a knowledgeable guide, providing valuable insights to buyers throughout the process, ensuring that they are informed and prepared for each step of the journey. DATA AND INFORMATION: INFORMED DECISION-MAKING

The availability of data has transformed the way individuals 16

New Home + Condo Guide | Feb. 17–March 2, 2024

approach the real estate market, and homebuyers are more empowered than ever before. Today’s buyers are leveraging technology to gather insights into market trends, property values and neighborhood dynamics. From online platforms offering comprehensive property data to predictive analytics tools, research on a developer’s past performance and tools to understand financial options, buyers are arming themselves to make informed decisions throughout the process of purchasing a property in a new development. This data-driven approach enhances transparency, minimizes risks and allows buyers to align their investments with their financial goals and lifestyle preferences. As we look ahead, the value of experienced developers, data-driven decision-making and the guidance of seasoned real estate professionals are emerging as defining factors in the pursuit of buying a property. All three factors combined make the homebuying journey a fulfilling and rewarding experience.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT PASSIVE HOUSE DESIGN by SUSAN M BOYCE

There’s no denying it: environmental stewardship is on the rise. Whether it’s Millennials searching for ways to create a more sustainable lifestyle, Boomers committed to reducing their carbon footprint, or grandparents taking an increasingly active role in creating a healthier world for future generations, more people are going greener than ever before, so it’s no surprise that Passive House design is coming of age. In this this issue, we chat with Sarah Yada Seto, previously a marketing and communications consultant to Passive House Canada and currently vice-president of marketing with BakerWest Real Estate, about what this building standard means for consumers. 18

New Home + Condo Guide | Feb. 17–March 2, 2024

New Home + Condo Guide: Passive House design has been around in Europe since the late1980s. Why is it only now gaining attention in North America? Sarah Yada Seto: We’ve reached a point where we simply can’t ignore climate change any longer. Extreme weather conditions like heat domes and atmospheric rivers are all around us. So, the question becomes how are we all going to do our part to reduce greenhouse gas emissions? Passive House design is a key answer to that question. A lot of people don’t realize that globally, buildings of all types create approximately 35 percent of greenhouse gases. Within Vancouver, it’s much higher—about 54 percent.

NH+CG: So, what are the principles behind this kind of construction? SYS: There are five basic principles: continuous insulation, highperformance windows and doors, an airtight building envelope, no thermal bridging, and ventilation that provides a constant supply of filtered air paired with a heat-recovery system. One of the biggest misnomers about Passive House is that it only applies to houses, when it’s actually applicable to all construction — recreation and community centres, commercial and industrial buildings, retail and now highrises like CURV that will be built in Vancouver’s West End and will be the world’s tallest building to incorporate these principles.

NH+CG: What kind of benefits do people get from living in a residence designed to these specifications? SYS: Firstly, it’s a healthier living environment. Since the air is continuously filtered, airborne toxins and germs can be reduced, something that became increasingly important during the pandemic when we were forced to spend more time at home. It’s also quieter because of the superior insulation, a consideration in a highly urban location. But what’s probably the biggest eye-opener for most people is that a Passive House uses about one tenth the energy for heating and cooling. With today’s rising energy costs, that translates to some significant savings over time.

Passive House residence on East 6th Avenue, North Vancouver by Marcel Studer, Econ Group Construction and Development.

NH+CG: What about cost? SYS: Studies suggest that currently, Passive House design tends to be approximately two to 10 per cent more expensive to build than conventional methods but offers large energy and greenhouse gas emission savings over time. We’re currently also experiencing supply chain issues that are driving up overall costs throughout the industry in general. I believe we’re right at the cusp of this building method becoming mainstream, and the more

we build, the more cost effective it will become.

Sarah Yada Seto, V.P. of marketing at BakerWest Real Estate.

Knight residence, Vancouver, by Marcel Studer, Econ Group Construction and Development.

NH+CG: Any final thoughts? SYS: Passive House is a global standard that’s proven by 30 years of science. It also fits into the city of Vancouver’s mandate to have all new construction be Net Zero ready by 2030, and there are already incentives to build to the Passive House standard.

I believe this is the future of building, a collective response to the need to do better for the environment. People of all ages are embracing Passive House because they want to live a healthier, more sustainable lifestyle. For more information about Passive House design, visit passivehousecanada.com.

Six dynamic trends to enhance your interior landscape Fulton residence. VINTAGE ARMOIRE, France.

UNIQUE AND ORGANIC-SHAPED OBJECTS Unconventional shapes will take centre stage in 2024. Gone are the days of a perfect white porcelain dinner set or a perfectly symmetrical vase. Shapes are fluid, imperfect and natural for 2024. For example, this great organic-shaped mirror. Photo: Mary Burgers

A NOD TO THE PAST, AUTHENTIC FAMILY HEIRLOOMS This year, there’s a growing rejection of cookie-cutter interior design. Personalization is key, with vintage, artisanal, and heirloom pieces favoured over mass-produced items. This trend encourages homeowners to infuse their spaces with character and individuality. Sourcing from your history makes it even better, whether it’s an heirloom from a family member, or started by you with a piece curated from a memorable trip that your children will fight over one day. Authentic pieces are not only on trend, they are meant to last. Photo: Martin Tessler 20

A COLLECTOR’S MENTALITY TO ART It has become evident that the recent hype around NFTs (non-fungible token) and digital art has not significantly affected the market for contemporary art. Whether it is a large or small piece, owning meaningful artwork can add a splash of colour and texture to any wall and allow you to engage with it as a collector. Taking the time to visit local art galleries and art crawls is an excellent way to explore the arts, bring perspective, and connect with the creative community. Collecting art is not just for the rich and famous; anyone can start with a willingness and some initiative, whether in the form of canvas or print. Even the smallest of pieces, when specially curated, can have a significant impact on any space.

FOR BOOKLOVERS A HOME LIBRARY Bookshelves are making a natural comeback in 2024, and when they are built-in, it provides a simple, beautiful and authentic design element to any room in your home. Bookshelves maximize the functionality of your home’s square footage and are often a solution to unused spaces such as under the stairs, wide hallways, or closets.

Authentic

pieces are not only on trend, they are meant to last.

ICONS OF THE DESIGN WORLD The best way to predict the future is by interpreting what’s happened before and worked. Classics like the Eames lounger, the Carl Hansen wishbone chair, the silhouette of a Noguchi lamp, the playful lights by Ingo Maurer or streamlined ones by Achille Castiglioni, have elevated spaces for decades, and the idea of buying once and buying well is always ahead of the curve. In Canada, there are great resources for sourcing classic icons through vintage shops as well as online sites.

STRIPES Patterns tend to come and go quickly in interiors and fashion, but stripes have always been a reliable and classic choice. The iconic look has a timeless and luxurious quality that will never go out of style — think of French sailor’s stripes or the umbrellas on a beach in Positano. They can add a subtle touch to a table setting or make a bold statement as wallpaper. Stripes evoke a sense of nostalgia while remaining future-proof, making them a versatile pattern that will always look good, whether it’s today, five years from now, or 15 years into the future.

The art of styling your

hat does the shelving in your home say about you? Perhaps you’re organized, well-travelled or family oriented. Maybe your bookshelves express your love of reading, photography or board games. But beyond the display, the type of shelf can speak volumes as an 26

architectural feature that is as much a focal point as the items on show. With a variety of designs and materials to choose from, the aesthetic options are endless and there is something to appeal to every style preference. Of course, we can’t ignore the original intent of this household staple – storage. So, whether you’re contemplating

custom-built shelves or revamping an existing set, ensure you reserve a place for function and style.

Making a case for custom When it comes to aesthetic preferences and storage, custom-built shelving offers the perfect blend of beauty and brawn, allowing you to

tailor the shelving to your lifestyle, your needs and your space. Start by assessing what you need, which items will be displayed and what storage requirements must be met. Consider the depth and height of the shelves to accommodate various items, from books to decorative pieces. Custom shelving is ideal if you have unique storage needs or style preferences, or if your home boasts unusual dimensions, allowing you to maximize every inch rather than trying to find a suitable pre-made option.

1| Embrace organic materials and texture

The art of display

2| Tell your story

Open shelves are a stunning, versatile choice, fitting seamlessly into various spaces such as the kitchen, living room or home office. I personally love open shelves, because they provide easy access and also encourage a curated, organized look. Admittedly, they do require a highly organized, simple approach. The key lies in mastering the art of the display. The following are some of my favourite tips for creating a thoughtful arrangement.

To add warmth and character to your shelving, incorporate natural wood for a warm and inviting feel or opt for metal accents for an industrial touch. The interplay of textures, such as woven baskets or ceramic vases, adds depth and visual interest to your display. The tactile experience of different materials enhances the overall appeal of your shelves, creating a space that feels lived-in and personal.

Shelving is more than just a storage solution; it’s an opportunity to tell the story of the people who live in the space. Use your shelves to display personal items, cherished mementos and unique artifacts. Whether it’s a collection of travel souvenirs or family heirlooms, integrating personal elements on your shelves creates a narrative that resonates with everyone who enters the room. This not only adds character, but also fosters a sense of connection between you and your living space.

3| Distribution and repetition Create a cohesive and visually appealing shelf display by distributing and repeating colours strategically. Consider a colour scheme that complements the room’s overall palette. To maintain balance, imagine an invisible line connecting the tops of each item on the shelf. Strive for a zig-zag pattern to add visual interest, preventing a monotonous look. By repeating decorative accents and elements, you create a harmonious and uniform appearance from top to bottom, ensuring a polished and stylish display.

Be your ‘shelf’ Transforming your shelving from a basic storage solution into a personalized and stylish focal point requires thoughtful planning and a creative eye. It all starts with a great shelf that complements your space, coupled with meaningful and interesting accessories that reflect your style and yourself. The outcome will be as unique as you are. Trust me, don’t “shelf” these ideas. Put them front and centre, and you can thank me later.
