What's The True Meaning Of Home?

STAFF PHOTOGR APHER

Jeff Robinson AD DESIGNER

Whitney Lockhart LAYOUT DESIGNER

Zane Smith CONTR IBUTING PHOTOGR APHER S

The English word “home” is from the Old English word hām, which actually refers to a village or estate where many “souls” are gathered. It implies there's a physical dwelling involved, but the main idea is that it's a gathering of people. This month, our overall theme is "Home," and we're celebrating an expanded definition of the word so that it encompasses our community as well. Some people believe home is the place where you feel in control and properly oriented in space and time; it's a predictable and secure place. That's certainly true, whether that's in your kitchen, personal spaces, patios or backyard. We've touched upon those sacred spots in this edition. N.K. Jemisin said: "Home is what you take with you, not what you leave behind." This year, we wish you plenty of good developments and memories to take you through the coming months as we look forward to spring.

Entertain Year-Round With Custom Outdoor Living Space

O UT D OOR LIV IN G | HOME + DE S I GN

Experience all the advantages of a private, outdoor living space in one's own backyard. Four-season rooms, covered patios and outdoor kitchens extend entertaining while adding areas to work and play. They can be personalized with pergolas, firepits, water features and retaining walls to suit every family’s taste and personality. Expert outdoor living designer Chris DiSabatino, president of DiSabatino Landscaping, explains how to create stylish spaces that make homes the envy of neighborhoods:

PLAN AHEAD Building a custom outdoor structure can seem daunting. “An outdoor living designer should help you gain an understanding of your project with a 3-D rendering,” says Chris. This allows everyone to envision and revise the project before any work begins.

ASK AROUND Choose a professional design firm with a superior reputation. Ensure the firm has a solid warranty for any problems down the road. “Our family name is our company,” says Chris. “Every team member in uniform represents the values of our firm.”

TAILOR THE PROJECT TO THE PROPERTY Built as an extension of a home, gazebos and patios provide a peaceful retreat and alfresco office. Tech-enabled outdoor kitchens and grills, bars or built-in television systems extend parties well into the night. Put in a pool to keep everyone entertained or add outdoor lighting for ambiance. The list of options to customize projects is endless.

EXPERT INSTALLATION Even if a firm is using the highest quality products, the success of projects depends on the level of installation. Experienced professionals follow proven methods and anticipate potential problems. “Our team members guide you through every step of the process, offering exceptional customer service from beginning to end,” says Chris. By taking these steps to plan, design and create a stunning outdoor space, Chris says homeowners will enjoy it for years to come. “You’ll never regret investing in a project that enhances your home, increases your property value, and provides endless hours of enjoyment for your family." 610.361.0595 DiSabatinoInc.com

HOME EXTERIORS COMBINING ART AND SCIENCE These Award-Winning Landscapers Proudly Have Been Serving Pennsylvania For 25-Plus Years ARTICLE BY JULIE BROWN PATTON PHOTOGRAPHY BY ERIC ZIPPE Custom designs, trust-centric customer service and tailored project executions are the norm for the in-house teams of Borsello Landscaping, who enjoy handling the gamut of outdoor projects. Specifically, they manage landscaping, hardscaping, water features, lighting, audio and carpentry constructions. "Helping our clients realize the potential of their outdoor living spaces is always our goal. We certainly stand by our work, with an industry-leading 10-year guarantee on our hardscaping. We also combine the art and science of landscaping in a way that maximizes value for our clients," says owner Mike Borsello, who launched the company in 1995. Today, Borsello has multiple crews of highly-skilled workmen and an office staff dedicated to creating the best experience for each client. Mike says he was proud to add an internal team of skilled carpenters to the staff a few years ago. They put their talents to work in creative and versatile ways, such as using the timber harvested from a client's cherished lost Dogwood Tree as a mantle for a custom outdoor fireplace, along with the stonemasons on-staff. "We pride ourselves in establishing upfront, lasting relationships with our clients from the moment we start together," says Jane Atkins, Borsello's client advisor. As advocates for clients, Jane says their creative designers strive to provide unique ideas and solutions, and their project managers stay on top of supplies and delivery times each day. "With the pandemic, everyone's experienced different materials shortages at different times. However, we inform and update clients throughout the process," she adds. Jane says one of the most popular client requests recently has been their outdoor packages, which may include designing and creating swimming pools, outdoor kitchens, firepits, fireplaces, pergolas, pizza ovens, custom decks, architectural lighting, screened-in porches and outdoor furniture -- with each project element coordinated to develop fabulous, private gathering spots. She adds that their design team helps clients select fabrics for furniture from durable, reliable sources. With more clients desiring evening and year-round use of outdoor living spaces, Borsello teams can install state-of-the-art, security-focused up lighting, down lighting and path lighting.

ONE-STOP REMODEL SHOWROOM AND PROFESSIONALS WHO PROVIDE CUSTOMIZED PROJECT MANAGEMENT THROUGHOUT RENOVATIONS

Client care thoroughly guides a local business that's served the area for nearly 40 years. With seven remodeling crews at work at clients' residences at any given time, the owner of West Chester-based Giuseppe Kitchen and Bath still gets on-site to every project each day to check progress. "We handle all aspects of kitchen or bath remodeling, including measurements, materials, electrical work, plumbing and tiling," assures Giuseppe Mingrino, who's

D E C OR T R E N D S | HOM E + DE S I GN

been perfecting his carpentry skills since he was 12 years old. At an expansive West Chester showroom, the Giuseppe team can assist with selections of cabinetry, floorings, vanities, backsplashes, countertops, knobs or pulls. "There's no charge for our designers, and we're happy to help with inspirational ideas and color palettes," says Ann Baker, client services coordinator. "We can assist with projects from scratch to finish

with our talented team who has a good eye for creative flair." The showroom includes materials from about 25 manufacturers, both domestic and international. The designers indicate they handle the full gamut of styles, including traditional, modern, rustic, European, contemporary, Italian-themed and minimalistic. Countertops can be in granite, marble or quartz. Tiles and flooring come in ceramic, porcelain, marble or granite options. "We appreciate appointments for showroom visits, so we can set-aside enough time for guidance and answering questions, but walks-ins are welcome," Ann says.

She adds that they also can direct clients to light fixture sources, if desired. As a teenager, Giuseppe worked weekends for his uncle, who was a builder in Sicily. After relocating to America in 1964, Giuseppe settled in South Philadelphia. In college, he says he did carpentry work for friends and neighbors. "By word-of-mouth, more people learned what I could do, and I ended up doing some sort of project for practically every professor I had," he fondly recalls. Referrals are still the predominant way his company receives about 85 percent of job requests, he says, adding they also get "high marks" through online ratings and feedback. Some know of his family from Limoncello Ristorante and Catering, which his family has owned since 2006 to provide traditional and authentic Italian cuisine, along with specialty and customized dishes. He says his family enjoyed the West Chester area so much, they personally moved into Chester County about 15 years ago. Giuseppe says on average, his crews can complete jobs from deposit to finish rooms within eight to 10 weeks -- with some timelines more dependent on the supply of certain materials. "But we do work six of the seven days each week." He says consistency in his work team has been key to their success. "We're all dedicated to quality, solid workmanship and to each other. There's a lot of mutual loyalty among us, and longevity of the same team over the past 25 years. We're devoted to honesty and professionalism." Showroom: 129 E.

FLOOR IT TO VOLUMINOUS OPTIONS FOR SPRING AND SUMMER AT HOLLAND FLOOR COVERING IN WAYNE ARTICLE BY JULIE BROWN PATTON PHOTOGRAPHY BY JEFF ROBINSON

Comprehensive flooring choices await in the heart of downtown Wayne at Holland Floor Covering’s newest showroom. Fueled by more than 45 years of experience and third-generation speciality flooring business knowledge of the region's Hansbarger family, the showroom was launched in May 2021. Highly trained staff members help prospective clients find options that best fit individual styles, budgets and schedules. The impressive showroom opened in the space previously occupied by Wayne Sporting Goods, a retailer that had been at that address for more than six decades. The Holland location now offers a wide assortment of carpet, tile, stone, hardwood, luxury vinyl, waterproof flooring, natural stone, area rugs and glass tile for backsplashes, all which include a 100-day, 100% satisfaction guarantee. Founded in 1975 by David and Judy Hansbarger, Holland Floor Covering originally was known as “Hansbarger Quality Carpets." It's now under the direction of the Hansbargers' three children: Pam Morgan, who shepherds finance, David Hansbarger Jr., who directs installation and new construction, and Roger Hansbarger, who heads up sales and marketing. The family's third generation rounds out the operations team: Roger Hansbarger Jr., Sarah Alles (Pam's daughter) and Mike Miller (David's son-in-law). “As a family-owned and operated company, we understand the importance of people. The community that we are a part of has worked just as hard as we have to help us become the place we are today, and we try to repay that every day,” concludes Roger. Flooring is a significant element in defining interior design. Recognizing that purchasing a new floor is an important investment, the Holland Floor team wants customers to love the style and durability of floors for years to come. They have an extremely large selection of

CONTINUED > MAR CH 2 0 2 2 | C I TYL I FE STYL E . C OM/WE STC HE ST E R PA

carpet and flooring, including brands such as: Masland, Mohawk, Karastan, Shaw, Nourison, Bruce, Fabrica, Mirage, Mannington, Daltile, Coretec, Trucor and Armstrong. They provide voluminous styles at a wide range of price points. Once a few selections have been made, a salesperson outlines the pros, the cons and what to expect from the product’s durability and longevity. "Carpet doesn't have to be a complicated process," says Roger Jr. To create a hallway runner, add an area rug, or transform a room in one afternoon, ask Holland's team about Floorigami’s peel and stick tiles. They also carry Repel hardwood, which was developed for rugged daily living, as well as Pet Perfect collections. In addition to a huge selection and exceptional service, customers enjoy free takehome samples, easy no-interest financing options, full-warranty service, and the confidence that comes with knowing their installers are skilled and experienced. Roger says all of these factors contribute to Holland Floor Covering’s high customer satisfaction and retention rate, which includes "both repeat customers, as well as second and third generations." "It's helpful to gather ideas and inspiration prior to embarking on the flooring process. We even have a room visualizer on our website to help people explore options and color palettes from their own home prior to visiting our showroom. When you’ve found the perfect one, visit our showroom to see your selection in detail and get professional installation," says Roger Jr. Wayne showroom (newly opened -- just 16 miles from West Chester): 124 E.

"We really listen to the ultimate goals of our clients to create spaces they've imagined, not just sell them products." ~Natalé Miller Moore A cheerful, inspiring and expansive showroom in West Chester awaits Miller Residential/Miller Flooring Company customers seeking to remodel kitchens, bathrooms, basements, mudrooms or to update floors and cabinets. "We encourage appointments for the showroom, but walk-ins are welcome, too," says Natalé Miller Moore, business development manager at Miller Residential. When Miller teams work their magic on home improvement projects, some would call it lifestyle construction due to the customized approach for each customer. "We help create and execute beautiful spaces in homes or outdoor areas. Our full renovation projects have included cabinetry, countertops, bathroom and kitchen appliances and fixtures. We also have generational talent available for outdoor tile or stone projects, such as outdoor fireplaces, outdoor kitchens, patios and stone structures," says Richard Miller, vice president of Miller Residential. He says they also partner with new home builders to complete various phases of indoor construction. With every product that Miller introduces and sells in their showroom, Natalé says they have experts on standby for quality installation. "On top of that, our in-house crew does a state-of-the-art job in sanding and finishing hardwood floors," she says. "We're not your run-of-the-mill family business, and we still hold some of those old-time family business traits dear, such as customizing projects that still work within budgets. We really listen to the ultimate goals of our clients to create spaces they've imagined, not just sell them products." Their flooring-related services encompass hardwood, engineered hardwood, luxury vinyl, carpet, floor and wall tile, stair work and sanding and finishing. Natalé says Stanton, Anderson|Tuftex, Shaw and

Dreamweaver are their top sellers. Customers also can browse online artwork, pillows, throws and more from Arteriors Home, Wendover Art Group, Ann Gish and NDI Faux Flowers. Miller professionals can assist with selections of tiles for backsplashes, showers, listellos or floors. Project Manager Tom Malenki says they also carry hardwood or luxury vinyl floor materials. Regarding cabinetry, customers can ask them about quartz- or granite-based popular brands, such as Aristrokraft, MasterBrand and Wolf, as well as Top Knobs Cabinet Hardware. When owner Bill Miller launched Miller Flooring Company in 1989 with hardwood flooring taking center focus, his team quickly earned a hard-working, trustworthy reputation, which led to commercial work, especially for gymnasiums and athletic arenas. They operated under the umbrella of Miller Sports Construction. Working with his brother, Richard, they still handle home gyms, courts for basketball, tennis or pickleball, yoga studios, fitness rooms, carved out spaces for workouts or exercise, and major athletic projects, especially with Mondo athletic gym flooring. "Whether you seek to revamp and improve what already exists, or are looking to completely start anew, we can help," assures Bill. The company is an active associate member of the National Wood Flooring Association and Maple Flooring Manufacturers Association.
