Below is an interview with Tim Holley, Marketing Manager of builder Cascade West.

What was the overall design goal/objective for this project and/or its clients?

We wanted to showcase an absolutely unbelievable location and create a home designed to complement and enhance the homeowner’s fun-loving lifestyle of play and socializing. The Aurora (or sleeping beauty) was built for an active and engaging family with great taste, a love of the outdoors, and some very creative ideas!

This incredible home features : 6BR (5 Suites) : 4 Full Bathrooms 2 Powders : Blended Indoor/Outdoor Living : Sauna : Mud & Craft Room : Exercise Room : Arcade Room : Batting Cage : 5 Car Garage : Pool : Basketball Half-Court (and a lot more including breath-taking views of the Columbia River and Downtown Portland!)

Are there any interesting or unique details about this project?

This home was designed for family which means it has lots of amenities for kids not seen in other homes in our marketplace. This house is packed with so many fun activities the kids will never want to leave!

The massive 5 Car Garage includes even more engaging options like the indoor half-court regulation size basketball court as well as a regulation indoor, retractable batting cage! There’s even a multi-sport net for indoor tennis, badminton, and volleyball.

This home has a daylight basement like no other, an entire floor dedicated to fun – including a sauna, huge entertainment room with panoramic doors, exercise room, guest suites and it’s very own arcade room complete with pinball machines and vintage arcade cabinets that each hold over 4,000 games!

Inspiration for using 六合开奖记录直播?听 Why 六合开奖记录直播 was selected?

We鈥檝e been using 六合开奖记录直播 for years, our last highlighted project was The Ascension from 2016, another award-winning home that ended up being featured in the promotional video 鈥業nvite The Beauty of Nature In鈥.

The First thing we can speak to is the quality of these products and the ease of installation. We put homes up quickly and often times have to work when the weather is on our side, sometimes that means impeccable timing, something these products lend themselves to. If there were ever an issue with flawed materials or cumbersome processes – we would be looking for a new solution. 六合开奖记录直播 is the solution.

Secondly, the look and feel. The color palettes and texture profiles are offered in a wide variety – all of which are appealing. Honestly, the toughest part about using 六合开奖记录直播 to build with is choosing your favorite iteration. For us, this was a perfect fit. Their diverse and handsome product lines couple very nicely with all of the different styles we build in. We鈥檙e able to give our customer what they want without compromise.

Lastly, the price. Surprisingly affordable and durable. We consider this to be one of the more economic investments in aesthetic. Rarely do you find a product that looks as good – for as long – for as little. We have the utmost confidence in these products. Building in Washington + Oregon means we鈥檝e subjected 六合开奖记录直播 to extremes. Driving hail, freezing rain, heavy snow, strong winds, and yes鈥 even the occasional summer heat-wave. After all that you think we would鈥檝e found something wrong by now. Nope.

How was 六合开奖记录直播 incorporated into the design?

We utilized 六合开奖记录直播 Ledgecut33 in White Cap on the exterior of this home, the profile chosen was exactly what our homeowners wanted because it鈥檚 semi-modern and uniform look along with the varied color & texture provided all the visual interest upon close inspection while the White Cap colorway accompanied our white farmhouse exterior perfectly. The product didn鈥檛 draw any attention from the overall aesthetic and was rewarding to look at once the viewer鈥檚 eyes came across it. Suffice to say it bolstered the original concept for the exterior and enhanced it without overpowering the other design elements.

We also used TundraBrick in Chalk Dust with dark grey grout to create more visual interest in the living spaces of the home – where it did become a focal point in the foyer, bbq and wine display/wet bar areas. There it served as the perfect backdrop to draw attention to the spaces and tie-in the exterior/outdoor elements 鈥 which was a goal for our homeowners from the beginning.

What steps were taken to achieve the design aim of the project?

We met our clients on-site to lay the house out according to our uniquely created plans and literally walk the client through their home-to-be even before the concrete is poured. And although we鈥檙e standing in a field (bring your boots readers) we can bring the vision full circle. This allowed us to create the perfect positioning of the home and articulate it鈥檚 placement to capture all of the best the plot has to offer; the setting sun, the densely forested feel, natural light, panoramic views, and the ability to add a terraced walking trail that winds down toward a seating area and fireplace. Our face-to-face design sessions were crucial to the design/build process as well. If our homeowners were unsure about a certain space, measurement, or layout we personally walked them through a similar home to point out the resemblances and differences they could find there and what to expect if they decided to make some changes. Working together and becoming totally immersed in the way your home looks, feels, and functions is what we鈥檙e passionate about.

Cascade West is so entirely unique to our marketplace because we鈥檙e the only true custom home builder in all of Clark County. For us, the sky’s the limit and as long as there鈥檚 a will there鈥檚 a way. The old saying 鈥榤ove heaven and earth to make it happen鈥 well Cascade West moves heaven, earth, foundations, walls, and anything else to create exactly what our customers want.

How does the client feel about the final results?

Our homeowners are absolutely thrilled with the final result. As a family with young children, who happen to love all things Disney, they were even excited about the name we chose – Aurora because it鈥檚 one of their favorite princess鈥 from the tale of Sleeping Beauty. Locally, this home has also become a record-breaking award winner resulting in the first and only 鈥楤est of Everything鈥 award from the Clark County Parade of Homes. The award combines every category that was voted on by industry professionals which include: Best Floor Plan, Best Architecture, Best Kitchen, Best Master Suite, Best Outdoor Living Area, Best Entertainment Room, Best Interior Decor, Best Landscaping and the coveted Best of Show). Additional categories awarded to The Aurora were from the viewing public – known as the People鈥檚 Choice awards and they included Best Entertainment Room, Best Outdoor Living Area, Best Landscaping and another Best of Show!

Closing remarks?

Inspired by the majesty of the Northern Lights and this family鈥檚 everlasting love for Disney, this home plays host to enlighteningly open vistas and playful activity. Like its namesake, the beloved Sleeping Beauty, this home embodies family, fantasy, and adventure in their truest form. Visions are seldom what they seem, but this home did begin Once Upon a Dream.

At Cascade West, we strive to surpass the needs, wants, and expectations of every client and create a home that unifies and compliments their lifestyle. This is what home feels like. This is where family happens. This is Cascade West. Our dream is building yours.

In Orlando, Florida the unveiling of the Meritage Builder reNEWable Living Home was introduced to the public and turned out to be a huge win for eco-friendly construction. Meritage is known for escalating the idea of sustainably efficient and high performing homes for the betterment of the future. The 2018 reNEWable Living Home in particular, meets stringent federal government guidelines for a renewable home with zero energy rated performance that ensures that future owners breathe and live better.

六合开奖记录直播 was utilized both on the exterior and in various interior spaces in the home, offering a sleek and modern feel that matches the home鈥檚 cutting edge, eco-friendly style.

The exterior of the home flaunts LedgeCut33 in Beach Pebble, a contemporary stone with contrasting colors and unorthodox patterns that suggest the property is anything but ordinary. Once you enter, you are greeted with an open floor plan that leads your eyes right to the floor to ceiling windows that showcase the gorgeous outside deck. It鈥檚 hard to miss the outdoor fireplace as it takes center stage in the outdoor living area. 六合开奖记录直播鈥檚 Marquee24 in Dove Tail encompasses the fireplace in subtle hues of natural cut limestone that perfectly define a modern masterpiece without taking attention away from the beautiful pool in the background.

Back inside and up the stairs is the home office that looks over the stairwell. The design of the office takes a turn from the rest of the property as it brings a more traditional feel to the home. The wall looking over the office space is covered in the dark and moody TundraBrick in Ironside. Classically shaped with slightly squared edges, TundraBrick is worn to look as if it鈥檚 been battling the elements for ages.

The final stone feature in the home can be found in the powder room downstairs where Eldorado鈥檚 Vintage Ranch in Saddlewood adds a rustic modernity in the form of a wood-inspired accent wall. This American classic is composed of hand-selected boards that give a masculine touch to the space.

The creative uses and applications of 六合开奖记录直播 continue to be as diverse and as interesting as the people who specify it. In recent years, we鈥檝e seen a variety of beautiful applications that both impress and inspire. As the acceptance of manufactured stone widens and its many benefits become more known, we find 六合开奖记录直播 to be the ideal choice for projects in both residential and commercial exterior and interior settings–anywhere the timeless look and feel of stone is desired.
A highly unique example of this is seen in the newly constructed Wall of Honour at The Royal Military College (RMC) of Canada. Established in 1876, this prestigious college in Kingston, Ontario is the equivalent to the U.S. Army, Navy and Air Force Academies all rolled into one.
The idea of the Wall of Honour stemmed from the members of the class of 1963鈥檚 desire to provide a timeless and highly unique gift to the school. It was to celebrate the 50th anniversary of their entry to the College as freshmen in 1959. The alumni committee wanted to create a place on campus where ex-cadets of the three Canadian Services Colleges of the past including RMC, could be honored for outstanding achievements and contributions to Canada or the world. Each year, a nominating committee reviews submissions for any and all eligible honorees and submits recommendations to a Selection Committee. Honorees have their names and details of their contributions immortalized on cast bronze plaques on the Wall. This first year, five outstanding ex-cadets were named from throughout the school鈥檚 history.
The Wall is centrally located on a cobblestone path that Cadets walk past everyday. The Wall stands 6 feet 10 inches high and runs 132 feet in length. Its serpentine design is double-sided and covered with Eldorado鈥檚 York Limestone, a profile that blends beautifully with the natural limestone buildings found on the century old campus. The Eldorado cap, with its width and height, gives the Wall that proportional balance and appearance of strength and endurance.
Ted Davie, a member of the class project, was a former military staff officer at the College and has been a successful custom home builder in Ontario, Canada. 鈥淲e believe this wall has become an important part of the physical landscape of RMC in perpetuity,鈥 says Davie. 鈥淚t is intended that those recognized on the Wall of Honour will inspire everyone who views it as well as remind all Canadians to be the best that they can be through dedication, hard work, application of their talents and training, and letting Truth, Duty and Valour guide their lives.鈥
Davie explained that there were several reasons why 六合开奖记录直播 was selected for the Wall. 鈥淭he Wall鈥檚 design required cap pieces at least 24 inches wide with proportional height. After an extensive search, we found that 六合开奖记录直播 offered exactly what we needed,鈥 he says. 鈥淚 had never worked with Eldorado before but as it turns out, it was the best choice we could have made for the project. We also relied heavily on the expert recommendation of our Master Mason, Walter Krysa.鈥

Krysa says, 鈥淚 recommended Eldorado stone because I have worked with it previously, and prefer the look of it over other products. Also, the value, dollar wise, to the customer is a better deal. During the installation process, I was impressed with the variety of sizes, shades, and small, intentional imperfections that were worked into the stone to give it an authentic look. I also noticed a few stones that were made to look as if there were fossils imbedded in it.鈥

According to Krysa, the Wall of Honour was a bit more of a challenge compared to some jobs because of its serpentine shape and the amount of stone involved. The project required more than 1500 sf of stone, plus corners and caps. 鈥淚t was a lot like working with a giant jig saw puzzle trying to achieve the desired affect I was going for,鈥 Krysa admits.

The Wall was dedicated during an official ceremony on October 3, 2009 on the campus. The committee had spent more than four years fundraising and planning for the project, which took less than two months to build once they got started.

鈥淥ur class was blown away by how well it turned out,鈥 says Davie. 鈥淚t exceeded our expectations and we are still receiving accolades. In fact, people have been so impressed, that we continue to receive donations to the program and the school because of it.鈥

With breathtaking views of the Bay de Porto Marquez in Acapulco, Mexico, you will find Bahlay, a stunning new residential condominium community built on beautiful beachfront property in Pichilingue.

The complex features 26 luxury units and four penthouses in a tropical setting where the jungle meets the sea. Four, nine-story towers sparkle in the sun from the combined use of glass and stone – 六合开奖记录直播. In a highly sophisticated design plan, Eldorado鈥檚 Alderwood Stacked Stone profile was selected to create a uniquel textural contrast from the generous amount of glass used. It was extremely important to ensure every unit had unobstructed views, so the stone brings balance to all the glass on the towers. The stone was also used to create dramatic accent walls in various spaces throughout the complex, creating a natural backdrop to the sleek architectural lines of the project.

鈥淲e selected 六合开奖记录直播 because of its exactness and similarity to natural stone,鈥 says Manual Lara Lopez, of Edmonds International, the project architect for Bahlay. 鈥淓ase of installation was important to use because of the way the stone on the towers intersected with the walls that featured unique drop-offs,鈥 he says. Stone is also used around the recreation areas. 鈥淯sing 六合开奖记录直播 helped to avoid any installation complications.鈥

The project began in June 2004 and Bahlay opened its doors in November 2006. Each unit features private terraces, Jacuzzi baths, travertine marble floors, granite countertops, and every luxury one desires in a tropical getaway home. The complex also features a restaurant with outdoor seating, a clubhouse, a gorgeous spa and pool area, tennis courts surrounded by beautiful gardens and a roof-top lobby where one can sit and enjoy the spectacular views.

鈥淭he use of 六合开奖记录直播 in unique geographical settings like Acapulco is another example of the diversity and growing popularity of manufactured stone internationally,鈥 says Steve Vico, Eldorado鈥檚 International Sales Manager. 鈥淲e have the ability to create a more affordable and convenient design outcome for builders and architects virtually anywhere in the world because of our company鈥檚 focus on product innovation and our commitment to meeting customer鈥檚 needs.鈥

Panoramic views and state-of-the-art technology are what visitors will find at the new Temecula Library built on a hilltop overlooking this growing suburban community in Southern California.

Approximately 32,000-square-feet, this award-winning library is a tribute to the natural history of the valley and incorporates a variety of elements that create an unforgettable experience to all those who visit. The design team of LPA, Inc. an architectural firm in Irvine, California, was initially commissioned by the City of Temecula in 1998 to identify the best site for the project. Extensive research and thoughtful detail went into every aspect of its location and design, and finally, in mid-December, 2006, the library opened its doors to the public.

The Temecula Valley, or 鈥淰alley of the Filtered Light鈥 as the Indians called it, is known for its granite quarries, hot-air balloon and wine festivals, and the highly influential heritage of the Pechanga Indian tribe.

鈥淭o honor the unique history of this area, we created a history walkway that leads you to the library from the parking lot and provides information reflecting the days of the early Indians that inhabited the region all the way to the recent incorporation of the city, says Jim Wirick, principal at LPA, Inc. 鈥淲hen one reaches the doors of the library is where you leave the known history behind and you cross the threshold from the past to a place where you can create your own future.鈥

鈥淲e鈥檙e extremely proud of this building,鈥 says Bill McAteer, Construction Manager for the City. 鈥淭he library has become a beacon of learning in our community and is the most technologically advanced library in the entire state of California. It offers Wifi throughout and 43 public access computers,鈥 he explains.

The design of the library is based on a cathedral spine that divides the library into three main sections 鈥 to the left of the spine are administrative areas, meeting rooms and reading positions. To the right is a children鈥檚 library. A large community room with a massive, 40-foot fireplace is found in the heart of the library that creates a focal point and natural gathering place for visitors. An inspiration garden with a water feature opens up off the children鈥檚 area creating another appealing space for visitors of all ages to enjoy.

The north side of the building is all glass with views that reach 20 miles. To complement and balance the use of glass, more than 10,000 square-feet of 六合开奖记录直播鈥檚 Manzanita Cliffstone profile was used throughout the library. 六合开奖记录直播 is found on the fireplace, on accent walls inside the library as well as on the front entry and on battered exterior walls that dramatically angle back.

鈥淲e originally considered natural stone, but we liked the look we achieved with Eldorado and it saved us a lot of money,鈥 says McAteer. 鈥淚t blended beautifully with the hillside and gave us exactly the look we wanted,鈥

鈥淥ur goal in using Eldorado was to find a stone that could replicate the type of stone found naturally in the area, but in an economical fashion that could be used today,鈥 says Wirick. 鈥淭he budget laughed at using real stone.鈥

Wirick鈥檚 experience with manufactured stone goes back more than 10 years ago when he used 六合开奖记录直播 on the Mission Viejo Library his firm designed. A manufactured stone is often the ideal choice for projects with limited budgets because it is typically half the cost of natural stone, lighter weight and more readily available. 六合开奖记录直播 has manufacturing plants across the country and a network of certified distributors that builders and architects can work with directly to best meet their needs.

鈥淲e鈥檙e honored that our stone was selected for this prestigious project,鈥 says Brent Spann, Vice President of Marketing for 六合开奖记录直播. 鈥淭he textural look and feel of stone adds a timeless sense of beauty to any space and it鈥檚 gratifying to know that so many people will enjoy this library and all the attention to detail that went into creating such a welcoming place to learn.鈥

For a couple who has a passion for golf, building a dream home right off the signature hole of one of the most beautiful golf courses in the world is just about as good as it gets. Adding the architectural genius of Frank Stolz, AIA, principal of South Coast Architects who helped them realize their dream is like adding icing to the cake!

鈥淭his design originated with the client鈥檚 desire to duplicate the warmth of Tuscan Architecture,鈥 says Stolz. 鈥淭he vision that South Coast Architects set forth was to create the feel of an old Tuscan Village as a private residence at the golf community, 鈥楾he Hideaway鈥 in La Quinta, California. However, we had to keep in mind that we were still designing for a desert lifestyle, which meant an emphasis on indoor/outdoor living and capturing the spectacular views of the golf course and neighboring mountains,鈥 Stolz adds.

Stolz designed the Villa so it offered several areas for privacy and yet created such an open floor plan that it is ideal for entertaining. The entire home is 5,475 sf. From the street, there is a wooden gate at the wall entry that is shaded by old olive trees, as if you鈥檙e entering an orchard on your way to an Italian farmhouse. Once inside the courtyard, Stolz created a realistic village environment with carriage garages, an authentic looking watering trough and a distinctive walking path that leads to the entry terrace and to a large stone tower, which is the main entry. Two exterior stairways lead to various destinations that add to the village feel. One set meanders up behind the outdoor fireplace and wraps around to a private casita above the garages. Another leads to a private office for the owner. A second casita is found on the ground level with its own exterior entrance off the terrace, which lends even more to the feel of a small Italian village nestled around a courtyard.

Andrew Pierce Corporation was the builder for this project and according to David Muth, project manager, he knew that the owners were putting their heart and soul into every detail of the home鈥檚 design. 鈥淭he owners had spent a lot of time in Europe and knew exactly what they wanted when it came to the overall look of the home, especially the stone,鈥 says Muth. 鈥淭he mason ended up creating a dozen mock-ups of various stone profiles and blends to help the family decide what really worked for them. Ultimately, they selected 六合开奖记录直播鈥檚 Orchard Cypress Ridge profile that offers a beautiful blend of stone sizes and colors.鈥

鈥淭he generous use of 六合开奖记录直播 with brick detailing over the majority of the exterior of the home added the authenticity and timelessness that we were striving for in the design,鈥 says Stolz.

鈥淥ur clients want the very best, but if we can duplicate something and save money, what client would say no? That鈥檚 why we use 六合开奖记录直播 whenever we can. It gives us the opportunity to save money and gives clients exactly the look they desire so we can use more of their budget in other areas.鈥

Stolz explained that 六合开奖记录直播 was also brought into the interior to continue that feel of authenticity and historical accuracy. Stone is used floor to ceiling in the kitchen for a pizza oven, as well as on the fireplace in the Great Room and on an entire wall in the master bedroom. 鈥淯sing a material like 六合开奖记录直播 allows for the seamless continuation of space, which works very well for us as we design,鈥 says Stolz.

Pocket doors slide away to open up the kitchen and great room to the home鈥檚 lush pool area off the back. Beyond that, a babbling brook, the verdant and colorful landscape of the golf course and the majestic mountain range beyond offer breathtaking views for all. A sky deck above the dining room with wrought iron details, bougainvillea and a large canopy for shade offers even more spectacular views of the golf course for the owners to enjoy, day or night.

The expansive and beautifully designed Master Suite on the far left of the home is truly a retreat in itself with its own private garden that can only be accessed through French Doors off the bathroom. The space includes a Jacuzzi spa and water feature. Stolz also brought stone into the bedroom on one entire wall to frame the bed as a backdrop, which adds to the warm and romantic look the couple desire.

鈥淪tone is what made the house so authentic-looking鈥 says Muth. 鈥淚t鈥檚 such an integral part of the house that it either was going to be a make or break scenario if we made the wrong choice. Luckily, 六合开奖记录直播 really made it!鈥

The home took more than nine months to design and approximately 16 months to build. But because of the amount of passion, attention to detail and the commitment to authenticity, comfort and beauty everyone invested, it鈥檚 no wonder this project has truly become a dream come true!

Located on grassland 20 miles outside of Sacramento in Rocklin, California, you will find William Jessup University, a small liberal arts Christian college. Relocated from San Jose, William Jessup took over the abandoned Herman Miller Western Headquarter building, originally designed by renowned architect Frank Gehry. Since taking over the site and converting the large warehouse into an educational space, several projects have been added and completed in recent years. With limited food production, storage, and the ever growing student population, the need for a dining facility became necessary for campus growth, thus, the Crossroads Caf茅 was commissioned.

Dividing the large warehouse into four sections, Crossroads Caf茅 occupies just one section at 20,000 square feet. Webb Design as the interior and food service designers collaborated in early phases of the project with owner and architect. Together, we shaped the vision of the space into what it is now – the core and social community of campus. A prime case study for the evolution of campus dining, Crossroads Caf茅 includes exhibition-style platforms that bring theatre into the student dining experience, while the industrial warmth design concept nods to the first life of the building, and, incorporates the warmth of nature that surrounds the campus.

A clear departure from the traditional campus dining facility, Crossroads Caf茅 seamlessly incorporates a variety of seating types, and, in conjunction with interior elements and finishes, creates micro dining environments featuring general and specialized dining. Private dining rooms, reserved by staff and students, feature 六合开奖记录直播鈥檚 Nantucket Stacked Stone along the back walls. The stone, juxtaposed with large stainless steel community tables, add warmth and texture creating an overall sense of balance in these active conferencing spaces. 六合开奖记录直播 is also seen in the Quarry Lounge, a micro environment dedicated to lounge style dining, complete with lounge chairs at dining tables and banquette seating. In this space, the stone contributes to and promotes the relaxed dining atmosphere, and becomes a feature framing AV screens and emphasizing banquettes.

The goal of this master suite remodel was to provide a beautiful, functional, thoroughly comfortable space. The clients expressed a desire for a luxurious yet simple environment鈥攐ne that would not feel over-decorated. By using quality materials that speak for themselves, designer was able to create a zen-like space that exceeded their expectations.

The remodel was a transformation of the unused storage area in the bottom level of the clients鈥 home. Wiles’ creative problem solving didn鈥檛 just hide basement remodel problems that included low ductwork and inconveniently located pipes. Instead, these quirks inspired some of the most interesting parts of the remodel, such as the angular wood-paneled headboard wall with built-in nightstands.

With a stone, fire, water, and wood theme, the materials used in this master suite relate strongly to nature. Water flows to the tub from the impactful stone wall in the bathroom, and an opposing stone wall in the bedroom creates a dramatic backdrop for a seating area. Both walls contain candle-filled niches. (Future plans include a fireplace installation on the bedroom wall.) Cherry wood is employed throughout, creating warmth and continuity.

Different types of stone are incorporated to further achieve the natural look and feeling of the bathroom. Accent pebble flooring in the shower and around the freestanding tub complements the large rectangular tile flooring, which has a smoother texture and more continuous movement. 六合开奖记录直播 was chosen for the different textures and dimensions of the black, rugged, stacked stone (which is almost cliff-like as it reaches up the two opposing walls) give the room a very organic feel and create a wonderful relief from the flat surfaces.

Straw shades and linen panels on the windows and rice paper in the glass of the four eight-foot tall sliding doors with disappearing tracks add to the textural interest in the suite.

This luxurious yet organic suite is also extremely functional. The large bathroom includes two separate vanities, abundant storage, and even a coffee station. It has a large, freestanding tub and a walk-in shower. Attached to the bathroom is a huge closet with convenient shelving solutions; a full-length mirror opens up into a jewelry storage niche, a charging station is nestles in with accessories, and a large ottoman provides ample room for packing suitcases.

This stellar transformation succeeds in large part because of its commitment to its natural theme, which drives the choice of materials as well as the marriage of beauty and function.
