FEATURED PROPERTIES

LIGHT

AND

AIRY

Did you know the lighting of a room can subconsciously influence your mood? This glossy light kitchen and living area evoke emotions of calm euphoria, showcasing its clean spaciousness through carefully designed nuance. See more of this Mid-Century Modern jewel by renowned architect, Ed Fickett.

This contemporary architectural beauty embraces color in all its hues and intensities. The palette, both bold and whimsical, doesn’t stop on the inside...it meanders up tree trunks and down staircases, along walls and corridors, creating a virtual art exhibition at every turn.

TIME TO SHAKE THINGS UP

A COLLISION OF COLOR

If you ask a half dozen designers to predict the next color du jour, you’ll get a spectrum of responses. But one thing they can agree on is that grey is going away.

Beige is the new grey, warming up the base color of wallpaper and paint.

If you’re going to get saturated, you're going to do it with warmer earth tones. Think terra cotta, putty, mushroom. The “pop” of color is trending blue.

What are Blue Zones?

The Blue Zones are unique regions across the world with the healthiest, happiest, and longest-living people.

The secret to their longevity has been a subject of decades-long research. Naturally, lifestyle plays a key role. Cultures in the Blue Zones are centered around community, strong relationships, and social support. Healthy diet and regular exercise are built-in practices.

We’re focusing on practical aspects of Blue Zone living that can be adopted into our lifestyles. We can adjust in small ways, or in a big way. There’s a level that’s just right for you. Learn more about it by clicking here.

100+

Blue Zones are areas of the world where people live the longest lives, consistently reaching age 100.

FROM HOMELESSNESS TO SUCCESS

COMMUNITY’S
CHILD

Community's Child is a non-denominational Christian program helping homeless women with infants combat abuse, poverty, addictions, and hopelessness.


In a safe, compassionate and structured living environment, women acquire the education, skills training, employment opportunities and support services necessary to break the patterns associated with homelessness.

Executive Director, Tara Nierenhausen, with unfailing grace and determination, puts these women on a clear path to success, boasting a 99% success rate.

Community’s Child has made a profound difference in the lives of women with bleak futures. They’ve gone from living in a garage or on the streets, to committing themselves to Tara’s direction, to emerging with confidence, independence and a career that will provide for themselves and their children. 

Again, success has been consistent. Each graduate has gone on to a career job, most have their Master’s Degrees, and their children are thriving. 

What I love about Community’s Child is their transparency, authenticity and effectiveness. While working with them in a fundraising capacity I have gained a much greater sense of the world-at-large along with deep gratitude for their unselfish, hard work. 

 

Because they are a faith-based entity, Community’s Child does not take government funds. As a member of the fundraising committee I work to communicate the value of giving. Donations to their program truly change the lives of people, helping them to turn their lives around, become self-reliant and successful. I’m very excited to create greater awareness of Community’s Child and share the good news of their success.
