Ask the Expert: WhatItems Are Adjusted

on Closing Purchase?

How RetireesCan Qualify For

a Mortgage

Retro wallpapers, edgy rustic

furniture and gold in everything

from hardware to toss cushions

are just some of the hottest trends

you’ll be seeing at the BC Home

+ Garden Show 2015 at BC Place

Stadium from February 18-22,

2015.

Whether building, buying, reno-

vating or selling your home or

maybe you just want to gaze long-

ingly at some cool furniture and

products, make your way to this

year’s much anticipated show.

“The BC Home + Garden Show

has everything you need for

design, renovation, lifestyle and

landscaping – all under one roof,”

says Tyson Kidd, manager of the

BC Home + Garden Show.

Every year, the show attracts

record crowds – between 54,000

and 59,000 visitors. Many attend

to collect inspiration or to dis-

cover the newest spring trends

in home and garden decor from

renovation gurus such as: Janet

Ewen, interior designer and fre-

quent television guest, who will

discuss quick and easy design

elements and Bryan Baeumler

from HGTV’s Leave It To Bryan

to W Network’s Love It Or List It

Vancouver presenter Todd Talbot,

who will speak about piloting

Vancouver’s uber-expensive real

estate market.

In addition, there will be hun-

dreds of the industry’s fi nest

Canadian renovation, decoration

and landscaping specialists to

answer your questions.

What? Gold … Really?What? Gold … Really?For many baby boomers, the

very idea that gold is back in

kitchen and bathroom fi xtures,

hardware and even on your couch

is enough to make them groan!

Well, not to worry, says guest

speaker at the show, interior

designer Karin Bohne.

“It’s not that shiny, brassy-

looking gold that many people

remember from the seventies and

eighties,” adds Bohne, founder

and principal of Moeski Design.

“It’s a matte gold with a sleek

contemporary fi nish.”

Wallpaper and CushionsWallpaper and CushionsFellow interior designer

Christine Friend agrees that these

fi nishing touches are crucial.

“I’ve noticed wallpaper is

coming back in a huge way,”

says Friend, owner of Friendly

Decorator, who will off er up her

best inexpensive tips and tricks

during the show. “If you can’t

aff ord pricey art work, fi nd a gor-

geous wallpaper pattern or a post-

er and frame it.”

Her other economical ideas

include purchasing a 22-inch fi ller

for a 20-inch pillow cover to cre-

ate a plush cushion or adding a

rustic tray fi lled with diff erent

sized candles or antique pieces.

Structural ElementsStructural ElementsDuring the show, Bohne will be

on the main stage helping home-

owners get that million-dollar

look they yearn for – but for a lot

less. One of the easiest ways to do

that is by adding wider, longer,

more detailed moldings and base-

boards throughout your home.

“Whether you are renovating

or selling there are key elements

that will help elevate the look of

your home and they don’t cost

thousands,” she adds.

Be Inspired at the BC Home + Garden Show

Karin and Christine’s

Top Trend Tips• Lighting size – bigger is bet-

ter: Let your light fi xture be

the statement piece.

• Wood fl ooring is going light-

er: Honey oak, natural tones

right up to medium hues in

a matte fi nish. However, the

wide plank is still very much

in vogue!

• There’s a global approach

to design: Think beautifully

inspired Indian textures and

fabrics, a gorgeous, colour-

ful Moroccan area rug or a

Chinese sculpture

• Modern to mid-century ele-

ments: Modern elements will

intertwine their way into

2015 décor in a big way.

• Tufted upholstered high head-

boards with deep buttons or

reclaimed wood headboards

are all the rage in 2015.

Evolve is set to become a landmark in Surrey City Centre. The stylish 35-storey glass high-rise, nestled in the pedestrian-friendly master planned community of West Village, will set a new standard in the revitalization of the city centre.

Evolve is an exclusive collection of 406

concrete studio, one to two bedroom

and two bedroom plus den open-concept

homes which will feature 8’5”ceilings and

suites with fl oor-to-ceiling windows to

allow for plenty of natural light to stream

in.

The residences, ranging from 316 to

1,294 square feet, will also feature lami-

nate wood fl ooring and spacious balco-

nies. “The penthouses will also feature

an open rooftop deck,” adds Kiran Rai,

Marketing Director MR Platinum Project

Marketing Inc.

The gourmet inspired kitchens high-

light an Energy Star stainless steel appli-

ance package, quartz countertops and

backsplash, and soft-close hardware in

both kitchens and bathrooms.

Evolve is more than just a tower; it

is part of the exciting West Village from

award-winning developer WestStone

Group. Within minutes of the Civic Centre,

Skytrain, community centre, City Hall,

as well as cultural, entertainment and

shopping opportunities, Evolve has more

than 300 homes priced below $250,000

– arguably making it the best and most

attractively priced new concrete high rise

in the province.

“At Evolve you are purchasing in a con-

crete building for less than the price of a

wood frame building, which is basically

unheard of,” says Rai. “Where can you

buy a studio with a parking stall in a brand

new building for $93,900? It’s amazing.”

In another fi rst of its kind, prospec-

tive buyers now have the opportunity to

view various fl oor plans from all angles,

as well as viewing them fully furnished

thanks to new technology being debuted

by Platinum Project Marketing, and

created by local tech gurus, Thin AiR

Technologies. Because of this enhanced

interactive-experience, prospective home

buyers can visualize their new home envi-

ronment from supplied iPads at the sales

centre or even on their smartphones at

home, as Evolve’s brochures, signage and

literature all employ scannable markers

that deliver augmented reality content.

“For those traditional buyers who want

to see the homes fi rsthand, they can visit

our presentation centre and three fully

furnished show suites,” adds Rai.

Owners will also enjoy exclusive access

to its Evolve’s own private SkyLounge. The

building will showcase a fully equipped

workout gym, theatre, a sky-high amenity

room featuring a social room with a fully-

equipped kitchen and a stunning large

rooftop patio area. This is the perfect set-

ting to entertain friends and family.

Evolve is the second of six towers to be

built in West Village by WestStone Group.

When West Village is fully developed, it

will truly encompass work, live and play

in one of the most exciting emerging city

centres.

The tentative completion date is slated

for early 2018. This is your opportunity to

live in a new home that melds the best of

urban life, all for a price that is unheard of

in Metro Vancouver.

For more information, visit www.

evolvecondos.com, call 604-497-0102

or email at info@evolvecondos.com. The

Sales Centre and three show suites, locat-

ed at 13328 104 Avenue, Surrey, are open

daily from noon to 5 p.m. (Closed Fridays).
