LIFESTYLE LETTER
“The magic thing about home is that it feels good to leave, and it feels even better to come back.” Wendy Wunder Home means something just a little bit different to everyone. With the exception of my hometown where I grew up, Las Vegas has been the most consistent of my adult homes. I’m proud to say I live here. The people make this town what it is, and when you can find your crew - it’s awesome. You, the readers, are my neighbors. I’ve lived here in the southern part of town for a while, and as I put every issue together, I honestly think about what we can do to make it special for you. What’s going to resonate well with you, our neighbors, and our local community? This month, we focus on the home. With the craziness of the market, it’s pretty clear that more investments are being made into the home itself, so we thought that it would be prudent to highlight some of the great trends in home design — everything from amazing outdoor living spaces (I cannot wait to redo our backyard) to incredible smart homes and technology, to stocking the bar with the essentials for a solid nightcap. We feel like the lucky ones as we had the chance to learn more about the businesses and individuals that comprise this city and hope the small lens into their lives and work brings people in this community together. As you flip through the pages of this issue, we hope you’ll feel encouraged and connected to the people around you — in your city, neighborhood, and most of all, your home. Every month, we hear from readers who keep this magazine for longer than just the month labeled on the cover. They say they hold onto it for months as coffee table art or an accessory in their home. We feel proud to create a resource that is valued in our community and strive every month to deliver the value you expect. Thanks for letting us be a part of your home.

business monthly A round-up of exciting news from local businesses. Vegas Golden Knights Alumni Donates $8,000 to Serving our Kids Foundation Former Vegas Golden Knights player Deryk Engelland and the Vegas Golden Knights Alumni Association visited local nonprofit, Serving our Kids Foundation, and donated $8,000 to the organization to help fight childhood hunger. One in four children experience childhood hunger, and the charity helps fill the weekend nutrition gap of vulnerable kids. There are more than 128,000 food-insecure children in Clark County, and the organization serves 4,000 children, grades K-8, in more than 100 schools each week.

Elevate Your Audio and Visual Environment Premier A/V Integration keeps homes updated with the latest A/V technology ARTICLE BY KYLA SAWYER | PHOTOGRAPHY BY MICHELE SYLVESTER
Las Vegas is known for its entertainment and nightlife, but that doesn’t have to stop in the home. Take Premier A/V Integration, a business that enhances the audio-visual capabilities of any house to meet each homeowner’s vision and amp up their home entertainment and technology capabilities. With an emphasis on television installation, audio integration, home theater systems, and more, the technicians care about their work and their customer’s home. Kim Auckland, founder and owner of Premier A/V Integration, spent 15 years working in the audio and video industry before starting her company in 1998. She has extensive experience with technology, staying aware of its constant advancements and implementing that with each client’s goals.
The technicians always consider every request. Auckland said, “Our approach to design is to listen to the expectations of the client, educate them on the possibilities and provide recommendations. We use our showroom to illustrate products and services, so the client has an opportunity to experience the system and make sure it’s a good fit.” The process of the team at Premier A/V Integration is thorough and collaborative. With free consultations, the technicians go directly to the client’s house and review all possibilities. Not only will they help with developing the blueprint for the project, but they’ll also make sure the end result will stay maintainable and within the client’s personal style. CONTINUED >

Premier A/V Integration’s showroom is open to the public, allowing anyone to browse, observe, and test out each system they have. A featured system that has become quite useful for many households is the “Intercom Anywhere.” With this application, the user is able to control other features around the house, like the front door’s lock, communicate with anyone around the house, and essentially have control over the entire smart house, even if they’re away from home. This feature keeps the client on top of everything in and around the house while allowing access and convenience for when the user is busy. Premier A/V Integration emphasizes its passion for bettering the home and creating a space where technology

improves life. By involving themselves in the community and organizations that support important causes, Premier A/V is allowing their work to help in a more compassionate and supportive way. Auckland said, “Premiere is proud to have been a provider for the St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway in 2017 and 2018, partner of Ronald McDonald House for a new project underway in 2023, and host the annual VIP Gala in Las Vegas to benefit Conquer Paralysis Now.” As a community partner and an efficient audio-visual integration provider, anyone’s home will be in good hands with the help of Premier A/V Integration.

Temperatures are slowly starting to rise, and the perfect way to immerse yourself in the beautiful weather is to take full advantage of your outdoor living spaces. Picture yourself taking in the crisp spring air and enjoying time with loved ones. What does that look like for you? An outdoor kitchen with adjacent dining areas? A fire pit crafted especially for stacking the gooiest s’more? Regardless of what your perfect picture looks like, Centerpoint Landscaping has you covered. “At Centerpoint Landscaping, we design and build comprehensive landscape projects for residential and commercial clients
who share our passion for creativity and quality,” said Centerpoint Landscaping Director of Design Mark Johnson. Johnson and his experienced team of landscaping artists are prepared to provide you with the top-quality service you deserve to bring your picture-perfect outdoor oasis to life. Taking the stress and challenge of design planning off the client, Johnson puts his creative expertise to work and designs each client their ideal, functional, and aesthetically pleasing space. “We always take the time to schedule an introductory meeting with each new client,” said Johnson. “We learn about the
“Being able to ask the right questions and listen is essential. The best projects are partnerships with clients that are involved, all while allowing us to be the professionals.”
client, the space, and their needs. Being able to ask the right questions and listen is essential. The best projects are partnerships with clients that are involved, all while allowing us to be the professionals.” Centerpoint Landscaping incorporates functionality and aesthetics with your unique style by leveraging their skillful identification practices to build new designs or elevate any existing architectural features and materials. “Our design process always starts with understanding who the user of the space is,” said Johnson. “On a residential level, this means meeting the client. We then study the site, sun angles, and existing architectural features. After that, we prepare design concepts that are later developed into a 3D presentation.”
The 3D landscape design presentation allows you to see high-tech and realistic 3D renderings to help you visualize your new outdoor experience by allowing you to see every angle of your new backyard and even letting you see it in multiple different shades of lighting. While other landscape companies typically provide clients with 2D plans, Centerpoint Landscaping’s use of technology helps clients feel engaged throughout the experience and confident that their new design is perfect for them. Clients are involved in every creative process step, and Centerpoint Landscaping provides fast and efficient installation, regular upkeep, and maintenance. In addition to offering full-service outdoor landscaping design, Johnson and his team also provide

outdoor lighting and irrigation system services. Leveraging his more than 35 years of experience in design and construction, Johnson determines where lighting and irrigation should be placed to elevate the space and enjoys designing and creating new custom light fixtures that become artistic highlights and talking pieces. “Lighting is important and adds warmth and ambiance to any space,” said Johnson. “When using wall wash lights, it is important to see the light and not the source. Whereas with many other lights, like path lights, the style of the fixture is important. I have enjoyed designing and

creating a few custom light fixtures that had become artistic focal points when the opportunity presented itself.” Centerpoint Landscaping’s greatest satisfaction comes from bringing each client’s beautiful landscaping vision to life — residential or commercial. Providing clients with realistic maintenance and upkeep expectations, ensuring the best options are given. Offering more than 20 years of expertise, quality service, and affordable pricing, Centerpoint Landscaping services over 52 areas locally and has all the tips, tricks, and on-trend ideas to bring your outdoor oasis to life.

LOCA L’S CH OICE | HOM E + DE S I GN
With South Vegas City Lifestyle Magazine’s March issue themed “Home & Design,” we wanted to find out more for our readers about home improvement projects and the best local partners to help weed through the noise. So, we asked Affordable Flooring to share its thoughts on its residential services and what clients are saying about them. Read on to learn more.
Michael and Tiffany Boulant Owners Affordable Flooring & More, LLC
TELL US ABOUT YOUR COMPANY. Affordable Flooring is the highest-rated flooring company in Las Vegas for a reason. We are truly a family owned and operated company. We’ve assembled a team of flooring professionals who truly care about our customers and ensure their satisfaction. Our installers are all employees, not subcontractors. They have all been with us for years and are the best group of installers in the valley. Installers often get overlooked, but they are an integral part of our success and highly skilled in what they do. It has taken years, but we’ve truly narrowed our crews down to the best. We actually have two showrooms. One in Centennial Hills, which is strictly a retail showroom. This is our “Neighborhood Showroom.” And we recently expanded to include a design center – the Vegas Design Source. This is our design center, but it also serves as our base of operations. With brands like Karastan, Fabrica, Kane, Stanton, DalTile, Happy Floors, Paradigm, and Mohawk, Vegas Design Source has a comprehensive selection of products and styling that can meet any style and budget. We welcome interior designers, contractors, and homeowners.
WHAT TYPES OF FLOORING MATERIALS DO YOU OFFER? We offer all types of flooring materials — carpet, tile, hardwood, laminate, luxury vinyl, decorative mosaics, and quartz countertops. CONTINUED >

DO YOU SELL JUST THE MATERIALS IN ADDITION TO OFFERING INSTALLATION SERVICES?
public spaces in homes. Customers will soften up these areas by adding area rugs.
We do both. We are a licensed contractor and install much of what we sell. However, our Vegas Design Source showroom is set up as a wholesale to the trade showroom where customers can purchase material.
SINCE WE LIVE IN THE DESERT, ARE THERE DIFFERENT MATERIALS THAT YOU SUGGEST USING?
DO YOU OFFER ANY WARRANTIES OR GUARANTEES ON YOUR PRODUCTS OR SERVICES? We offer a lifetime installation warranty on any installation we do. Material warranties are through the manufacturers, but we will facilitate any material warranty claim.
WHAT KIND OF FLOORING TRENDS HAVE YOU SEEN RECENTLY? Grey tones have been less common lately. It seems like that trend is waning. Light, natural wood tones have been extremely popular lately. We’re still installing a lot of carpets, but it seems to be limited to bedrooms and upstairs areas. Hard surface has been dominating

LOCA L’S CH OICE | HOM E + DE S I GN
The desert climate definitely affects flooring materials. We don’t recommend installing hardwood flooring. There are some that seem to do well, but in order to maintain the humidity levels in a home to comply with manufacturers’ guidelines, you’ll likely need to install a humidifier. Luxury Vinyl, Laminate, and Porcelain Tile have become the go-to solutions for our climate. All three are far more durable than natural hardwood and perform much better in our climate.
HAVE THE MATERIALS YOU’VE BEEN USING CHANGED DUE TO THE SUPPLY CHAIN? We had to make some adjustments during some of the worst times over the past couple of years. But most of the issues we faced have passed. There is an occasional backorder, but for the most part, the material is readily available.

Ever ything you need to know to create a breathtaking in-home bar
Having a home bar is cool. It is, however, not cool if the only thing you can offer guests is a couple of dusty bottles of liquor that have been there for years. What you have in your home bar can make or break your gathering, however informal it may be. A well-rounded bar should include at least one bottle of each of the six base liquors, which are the foundation for the majority of cocktails. Stocking a nice selection of these will ensure you can mix up almost any cocktail on a whim. If you feel like a whiskey cocktail tonight, you’ll be ready. When a guest asks for a brandy, gin, rum or tequila-based libation, you’ll be prepared to grab your shaker and mix up a drink.
VODK A Vodka has a clean, transparent flavor and is used for more cocktails than any other distilled spirit. Stock at least one “fifth” bottle of vodka, but opt for a handle (1.75 liters) if you like to entertain. • A good solid option like Titos is ideal for tall drinks like the screwdriver and bloody mary. • If you enjoy a vodka martini, spend a little extra for a top-shelf bottle as well. • Consider stocking a couple of flavored vodkas. In a traditional bar, citrus and vanilla vodkas are the trusted standbys. suggested glassware: CONTINUED > MAR CH 2 0 2 3 | C I TYL I FE STYL E . C OM/S O UT HV E GAS

WHISKEY
RUM
A well-stocked bar has at least two bottles of rum. • A light rum will be your workhorse for most cocktails, from the tropical daiquiri to the timeless mojito. • As a secondary rum, take your pick of aged, dark or spiced rum. suggested glassware:
GIN
Gin can be quite floral and botanical depending on the brand, since it is made from very botanicalforward juniper berries. • If you aren’t an aficionado, a good bottle of a London dry gin is recommended. This is the most versatile and can work in everything from a gin and tonic to a dry martini. • From there, you can get adventurous - every brand is different and a wide array of flavors is available. suggested glassware:
TEQUIL A Tequila’s quality can vary drastically, so make sure to test them out before purchasing. It’s the key to the ever-loved margarita, though there are other fascinating tequila cocktails to explore as well. Generally, you’ll want to stock at least one nice tequila. • The most versatile style is blanco (or silver) tequila, and it’s the best option for a one-tequila bar. • For a little upgrade, add a slightly aged reposado as well. suggested glassware:

This is where things get complicated. Each whiskey has its own style and characteristics. In general, two bottles are a good start - but you can always add more. • For the most versatility, stock a bourbon and Canadian whisky. The bourbon will give you that robust whiskey flavor and the Canadian blends tend to be very smooth. • Rye whiskey is a great choice for everyday mixed drinks. Though some drinkers find it too spicy, rye is excellent in almost any cocktail that calls for a generic whiskey. If you enjoy classic cocktails, give rye a try for an authentic taste. • A bottle of Irish whiskey and a decent blended scotch are good complements to any bar. While they make excellent cocktails, they’re not as common or as versatile as the other styles. suggested glassware:

LIQUEUR S
Liqueurs are often used as flavoring agents that define a cocktail. On occasion, they are the only distilled spirits in a drink. Liqueurs come in every flavor you could want and a bottle can last quite a long time. Start with the basics and gradually add to your stock as you see fit. Amaretto: The almond-flavored liqueur is used in both fancy and casual cocktails. • Coffee Liqueur: White Russians and countless other cocktails rely on a bottle like Kahlúa. • Dry and Sweet Vermouth: Technically, these are fortified wines, but they’re essential for martinis. • Irish Cream Liqueur: Baileys is a popular brand, though there are others worth checking out. You can also stock another cream liqueur, such as RumChata instead. • Orange Liqueur: Used in countless cocktails, this one’s invaluable. Options include curaçao, triple sec, Cointreau, and Grand Marnier. suggested glassware: MAR CH 2 0 2 3 | C I TYL I FE STYL E . C OM/S O UT HV E GAS
