Modern Loft Remodel Puts The Spotlight On The Charcoal Gray Walls

Some remodels are easy and some are extremely challenging. We're usually drawn to drastic renovations and spectacular transformations, projects which involve tearing down walls and building extensions. Today, however, we found a rather different project that we'd like to show you. It's an apartment located in Sao Paulo, Brazil which measures 100 square meters and was renovated by Diego Revollo Arquitetura in 2016. This is actually a loft and the remodel was pretty easy considering that there were no superfluous walls  and no structural changes to be made.

But what is a loft without a mezzanine…Luckily this apartment already had one and the architects took advantage of that. They invested in elegant finishes and prioritized materials and functionality. The apartment features gray burnt cement walls and ceilings which give it a masculine allure and look nice in combination with the exposed pipes and brick pattern. To balance the decor, the architects introduced wood flooring throughout the spaces, creating a warm and welcoming ambiance.

The living area has a double-height ceiling which gives it a very airy appearance

A Renovating Couple Gains Their Urban Chops

Imahe
Classic design and deep color tones anchor a home for new New Yorkers The move to New York from the West Coast landed Jeremy, an advertising executive, and Chris, a nurse managing an emergency department, in a 778 -square-foot co-op in the developing neighborhood of Hudson Yards. A "simple" tiling job that crumbled while living there led the couple to the bigger renovation that they had been saving up for.  With each of their "must-haves" in mind, they posted their project on Sweeten , a free service matching renovators with vetted general contractors and found a Sweeten design-build firm. The result? Herringbone floors, an array of new custom millwork-and sound advice to share with future renovators. Guest blog post by Sweeten homeowner Jeremy A first-and obvious-lesson in renovating: it really is harder in New York. When my husband Chris and I embarked on this adventure, we had thought we knew what we were doing. After all, we'd undertaken a remodel of our 19...

15 DIY Self-Watering Planters That You Can Craft Today

Imahe
Plants don't normally require a lot of care and are great to have around for numerous reasons. However, there's a problem. What will you do with your plants if you have to go away for a few days or more? They're like quiet pets which you can't take with you on trips and which have to be watered on a regular basis.

At the paint store coffee pot, Brian's 2019 painting predictions…

Imahe
Two days ago, I was dropping of flyers at local paint stores about the  2019 Painting Profits Summit. There was a little bit of a line to talk to the clerk, so I got a cup of coffee and spoke to an owner named Brian for a while about what he thought the new year held for painters in general and his business specifically. His predictions were – sadly – spot-on as the conversation continued… Brian was what I call vaguely optimistic and hopeful about good things happening in his painting business in 2019.  He told me he thought his sales would be up and things would be better. He had been in business for eight years in our local Chattanooga market. About this time, I found myself doing something that wasn't really my place to do. You see, I'm a coach and a problem solver by trade. It's how I make my living and I'm really good at getting positive results for painters. So, before I knew it – almost reflexively – I'm quizzing Brian about the things that matter most for 20...
