Welcome to The Ridge, the first community of its kind in Nanaimo where sustainability and livability are at the forefront.

The Ridge is all about sustainable community Imagine a neighbourhood that is designed to enhance the natural beauty of the existing environment

hen looking for your dream home, you’re looking for the style and amenities you desire plus a wonderful community that offers the kind of life you want for your family. Welcome to The Ridge, the first community of its kind in Nanaimo where sustainability and livability are at the forefront. At The Ridge, the custom designs reflect the natural landscape and scale of your land and the surrounding neighbourhood offers comfort, luxury, sustainability and style in a setting that is incomparably beautiful. These gorgeous West Coast modern designs give a select group of builders the opportunity to place their priority on integrating the design

features that are important to you. In fact, it has never been easier to enjoy a custom designed home that reflects your wishes because a new selection of lots has just become available in Phase 2 of The Ridge. The second phase of homes builds upon the success of the first. Imagine a neighbourhood designed to enhance the natural beauty of the existing environment, reduce the amount of pavement to create

green space, and foster social interaction. The Ridge introduces functional ‘traffic-calmed streets’ creating an intimate neighbourhood designed for people, not just cars. These innovative ‘sustainable streets’ allow rainwater to infiltrate the ground and be filtered by the natural vegetation. Impervious road surfaces are minimized (eliminating several acres of asphalt), resulting in cleaner water and a more natural run-off that mimics the area’s original conditions. Designer homes combine the quality craftsmanship of the past with modern design and aesthetics. The beauty of traditional architecture is matched with modern floor plans and clad in natural

materials. Check out one of our designer homes, a West Coast Modern beauty at 3800 Glen Oaks Dr., the presentation centre and show home for The Ridge. This home fuses natural elements with luxurious design and embodies the spirit of the surrounding environment with an open concept floor plan incorporating the kitchen, dining room and living room into one stunning space with impressive 14-foot ceilings in the great room. With many large glass doors and windows, your indoor living space makes a seamless transition to your outdoor living patio, offering a tranquil vista into the forest out your back door. This home includes plenty of extras from

large rooms, a spa ensuite to the main bedroom, sweeping deck space and, like all the homes at The Ridge, meticulous planning and quality craftsmanship. At The Ridge, beautiful, energy efficient homes are set in a forested mountainside setting with leafy sidewalks, community walking trails, and extensive lush green spaces. Thoughtful design. A higher standard of living. This is life at The Ridge — you’ve arrived. To learn more about this quintessential West Coast sustainable lifestyle, contact RE/MAX of Nanaimo at 250751-1223 or Derek Gillette at 250-585-3322. — Advertising feature

Little things have big impact for any room Doorknobs, drawer pulls, cabinet-door handles are ‘the jewelry’ that can add style and sparkle to any space MELISSA RAYWORTH THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

A closet door by Brian Patrick Flynn demonstrates the designer’s love of turning contractor grade materials into high design with the addition of fabric, satin brass pulls and perimeter outlines with brass nailheads.[THE ASSOCIATED PRESS]

t’s a small thing, often overlooked amid major items like furniture and paint colours when you’re decorating a room. But don’t underestimate the power of household hardware. These small items — doorknobs, drawer pulls, cabinet-door handles — are “the jewelry” that can add style and sparkle to any space, says New York-based interior designer Young Huh. Just as the right necklace can turn a simple dress into a fashion statement, a striking new set of knobs on an old cabinet, or vintage crystal doorknobs can bring a dose of style to your home with minimal expense, she says. In many homes, these hardware items are mostly ignored. Interior doors may have mismatched, inexpensive knobs that were installed at different times. Drawers and cabinets may have functional but unappealing knobs or bars. Swapping these items out is often easy, and Los Angeles-based designer Betsy Burnham says her clients are frequently surprised at the visual

TRENDS One of the most popular styles now is lacquered or aged brass. “Ten years ago,” Huh says, “it was all about nickel: brushed nickel, shiny nickel. Now it’s the resurgence of brass.” Designers are using “bold tones, and things that look worn,” she says, by installing unlacquered brass that tarnishes over the course of a year, or paying extra for “pre-antiqued” brass that already has a colourful patina. Flynn uses a lot of brass, especially “satin or antique finishes, because they’re more sophisticated and less formal than polished, glossy styles.”

In addition, “a newer option I’m seeing and totally love is matte black hardware,” he says. “This is excellent for modern kitchens or for adding dark contrast to an otherwise light and bright space. “The matte finish helps camouflage any scratches or smudges you’d deal with on glossy black pulls and knobs.” Another dramatic favourite of Flynn’s: unlacquered iron. UPGRADES AND CHANGES Burnham and her staff recently gave a preteen girl’s bedroom a more grown-up look just by “changing the vibe from kind of old-fashioned to Bohemian.” Their changes included a new set of striped, bone-inlay knobs from Anthropologie that gave the furniture a funky appeal. The same approach can make grown-up furniture look just right for a baby or child’s room: If you are turning a guest room into a nursery, Burnham says, change the cabinetry hardware to something “sweet or pink or shiny,” or choose knobs shaped like birds or other animals. See HARDWARE, Page 20

Swapping out unappealing knobs or bars is very easy HARDWARE, from Page 11 If youâ€™re shopping, Huh suggests hunting for an affordable piece of furniture and then making it look more expensive by adding dramatic hardware. The range of available styles is enormous, and shopping for new or vintage items online is easy. Even if youâ€™d prefer to buy in person, Burnham says a bit of online research â€œmakes your creativity kind of percolate a little bit.â€? â€œJust pay attention to dimensions,â€? she warns, because you â€œmay not realize that in person, an inchand-a-half sphere is quite large.â€? Measure the size and location of the holes left behind by your current hardware, she says. If you buy replacements that donâ€™t match, drill new holes and fill the old ones. And amid all the focus on style, do choose hardware that is easy to grab and use.

CONSISTENT OR CONTRASTING Take note of all the hardware and metals in a room, including lamp bases, and decide whether you want them to match or whether youâ€™d like to inject some dramatic contrast. Either method works, as long as itâ€™s done deliberately. â€œIf you donâ€™t do it consciously,â€? Huh says, â€œthen it could all look really messy.â€? â€œYou donâ€™t want to have shiny brass in one case and unlacquered in another and nickel hardware on something else,â€? she continues. â€œHaving similar tones is a good way to start. When you feel more expert, then mix metals.â€? In a kitchen, â€œyour finishes should probably match,â€? Burnham says. â€œYou wouldnâ€™t want the finishes to be fighting just a little.â€? GET CRAFTY â€œIn addition to pulls and knobs, I think nailheads can make a huge impact in a space,â€? Flynn says.

â€œAfter updating cabinets and drawers, Iâ€™ll also give closet or interior doors a unique look by adding a nailhead border around the perimeter. â€œThis can elevate a basic hall closet into an architectural feature.â€? You can buy nailheads at a craft store, or roofing tacks from a hardware store. Then cut fabric batting to size and use spray adhesive to cover the door with the batting. Stretch your fabric across the door and attach it with staples. Finally, place nailheads over the staples and secure in place with a mallet or hammer. â€œAlthough it may seem small, hardware can make the biggest impact of all elements in a space,â€? Flynn says. â€œWith so many styles and finishes to choose from and so many available price points, thereâ€™s no reason not to update hardware regularly to give a room a fresh new look.â€?

Urban industry inspires gritty furniture style MARY BETH BRECKENRIDGE AKRON BEACON JOURNAL

AKRON, Ohio — Dominic Falcione’s gritty studio on downtown Akron’s western fringe once warehoused industrial parts. His materials include metals and rough wood. His inspiration sometimes comes from the urban infrastructure. Yet from those come objects of function and beauty. Falcione is a sculptor and fabricator whose business, Rubber City Fab, creates furniture, lighting and other items for homes and commercial spaces. Most are commissioned pieces, but Falcione is not just a craftsman carrying out others’ instructions. He’s known for bringing an artistic vision and a keen attention to detail to his work. “It always ends up being a mix between designer and fabricator,” said Karen Starr, an Akron interior designer who often contracts with Falcione to build furniture for clients of her Hazel Tree Interiors. Typically she’ll tell him the function of the piece, the scale she needs and her aesthetic parameters, “but it’s his design from there,” she said. Falcione’s explanation is more self-effacing. “Things come up,” he said, “and I can figure out how to make them.”

Rubber City Fab owner Dominic Falcione shows off some of his work in use at The Bit Factory. [PHIL MASTURZO/AKRON BEACON JOURNAL]

That’s what happened when he won the contract to furnish the Bit Factory, an arm of the Akron Global Business Accelerator that supports new technology companies. Falcione had the opportunity to both design the layout and create the furnishings, a rare combination of skills he relished. The collaborative work space is in downtown’s Canal Place, the old B.F. Goodrich factory complex. Falcione honoured its industrial pedigree by leaving ceiling pipes exposed and covering the cracked concrete floors with only a clear finish, but he used movable partitions to define

rooms within the open area and imbued the space with a modern feel and an energizing glow of light. Large tables called work stations are each topped by a slab of walnut with its natural edges left intact, which hides electrical outlets and provides a place to mount arms for computer monitors. Sheer panels framed by raw wood diffuse the light from overhead fixtures and are interspersed with metal panels bent into angular shapes. Glasstopped occasional tables in a casual seating area have clever metal bases that can be turned

on their sides to change tables’ height. Light glows from within angular partitions and tall wood lighting fixtures called fire lamps. The partitions have a crisscross design inspired by bridge trusses, a design Falcione also used for the metal bases of the work stations. The light is a decorative element in itself. “When you introduce light, light is kind of like a living thing,” Falcione explained. “The light kind of gives the object life.” The space showcases the modern industrial look he gravitates toward, a sort of refined roughness. But he can create items in a range of styles, depending on the customers’ wishes. His versatility, he believes, is his strength. Visitors to an Akron First Night celebration this year might remember the light wall he created with colorful plastic pegs made from pharmacy vials, sort of like a giant Lite-Brite toy. His public work also includes the lighted, textured sign at Angel Falls Coffee Co. in Highland Square and bike racks in Kent, some with abstract forms and one with a peace sign motif. Falcione typically designs his pieces on a computer using the design software Solidworks but uses the traditional tools of metalworking and woodworking to carry out his vision — grind-

ers and wire welders, table saws and drills. Much of his creating is done with simple hand tools, and he contracts out complex work such as laser cutting that requires expensive equipment he doesn’t have in his shop. Falcione was trained at the University of Akron’s Mary Schiller Myers School of Art, where he worked as studio manager after graduating with a major in sculpture. He also worked for about five years for Akron sculptor John Comunale, with whom he still collaborates. “I put out some beautiful work when he was here with me,” Comunale said. Falcione, he said, has a crisp design style and a meticulous nature to his work. Designer Starr has hired Falcione to create a number of pieces, including a conference table made from 10-foot-tall, brass and aluminum bank doors and a light over a billiard table that’s reminiscent of gears, but with gentler, more refined lines. What sets him apart is his craftsmanship and attention to detail, she said. When he designed a bookshelf with a Frank Lloyd Wright feel, he spent so much time on the computer rendering to show to her clients that the finished piece turned out exactly as they envisioned it.
