CHOOSE A COLOR
Once youve decided on the type of
product thats best for your timbers,
youll need to think about the color
and style you want to capture. Some
home owners opt for light stains; others for dark. Just keep in mind that
the color swatches you see in home
outlet stores are only a rough indication of what your stain will look like;
your nal result depends on your
wood type, how long you let the stain
soak in and your homes lighting
conditions. Reminder: Beams that
are too dark will absorb all the light
in a room, and once you go dark, its
not easy to lighten it up, so err on the
lighter side.
Q
shade aid
How do you decide the right stain color
for your home? It depends on the look
youre trying to achieve. Check out these
options when pondering the perfect hue
to complement your timber home.
NATURAL BEAUTY. Owners of wood
homes love to show off the natural grain
of their timber. The visual appearance
of texture, knots, linear ticking in the
wood all the natural organic aspects
is popular, says Carl Minchew, vice
president of color innovation and design
at Benjamin Moore. This is especially
appropriate in homes with rustic decor.
Get the look by using transparent or light
stains, or a clear oil.

OUTSIDE IN
All too often, the garage is merely an
afterthought to the rest of the house.
But when you stop to consider that
your garage counts just as much toward your homes curb appeal as your
front porch, youll realize that this multifunctional space shouldnt be treated
like a second-class citizen and that

STORAGE SOLUTIONS
Once youve got the exterior of your
garage settled, its time to concentrate
on the all-important interior. The
foolproof way to create an organized
garage from scratch is to be honest
with yourself about how youll really
use the space. First, remember that although the space will most likely hold
a collection of other items, it will need
to house your cars a factor that will
have a big impact on the layout. A basic one-car garage is 12 by 24 feet, and
most garages add spaces in 12-foot
increments. Figure on a minimum
9-by-18-foot reserve per car so you can
open doors with ease.
From there, consider any storage
needs you might have. Because of its
proximity to the outdoors, the garage
often is an ideal place to store gardening tools and sports equipment, and
manufacturers have responded by offering specialized storage units that are
a breeze to install. (Note: Make sure
these units suit your purpose, otherwise
theyll just eat up oor space.) Also, remember that hooks, shelves, racks and
bins are a good idea. Prioritize what
goes where based on how often youll
use an item, and label everything to
help maintain order. Another tip: Look
for empty storage space higher up.
Storage volume above the cars, workbenches, entries and the garage door is
usually wasted.
FINISHING TOUCHES
In addition to storage, consider other
uses you can get out of your garage. Do
you want to install a laundry room or
home ofce in the space? Even if you
dont intend to implement these features right away, Theresa says, its still a
good idea to install things like plumbing and electricity, as it will be more
difcult and expensive to retrot later.

THE KITCHEN
Its the heart of the home, so why not
give the kitchen the royal treatment it deserves? Start by focusing on these areas:
1. Classy Counters
If theres only one area you can afford to
update, consider the countertops. Stone
and tile are especially luxurious. Quartz
is one of the hottest trends; its touted
for its durability as well as its fair price.
In addition, quartz retains less moisture
than other surface materials, translating
to fewer bacteria in the kitchen.

3. Haute Hardware
Details really do make the difference, and
cabinet hardware proves it. For a touch
of luxury, consider brass, nickel or
chrome nishes. For extra sparkle, buy
crystal or glass accents that reect the
natural light in the room. Upscale hardware will give your kitchen a sophisticated
avor without costing a bundle of cash.

5. Walking on Elegance
7. Lighten Up
Just by changing
light xtures or
bulbs, you can alter the
mood of your kitchen
to make it feel more
opulent. Steer clear
of ugly uorescent
lights in the center of the room,
and incorporate
more decorative xtures
and recessed lighting. Also,
under-cabinetry lighting is
relatively easy to add, and
creates an impressive look.

6. A Custom Look

8. Beautiful Backsplash
Go for it fall in love with the most
expensive tile in your home store.
Then, incorporate just a few of these
tiles into a backsplash design. Many
people opt for moderately-priced tiles
in a solid hue interspersed with a few
extravagant, hand-painted tiles. Since
the backsplash is a relatively small area,
a few dazzling tiles will go a long way.

Sit back and envision your dream master bath a large oasis of space lled
with the latest amenities, such as a hot
tub, sauna and steam-shower. Unfortunately, these high-end items arent
often affordable or practical. If you
have the money, go ahead and indulge
yourself. If not, incorporate a spa avor
with smaller touches. For example, a
steam shower may be out of the question, but why not incorporate multiple
showerheads? To add more elegance,
consider a glass-enclosed shower.
break the bank. Decorative base molding is a great way to up the style ante, as
long as it doesnt interfere with the timbers in the room. If part of your great
room is a dining area, consider incorporating a chair rail. Chair rails range
from simple to ornate, and theyre generally easy to install yourself.
If youd like to incorporate handcrafted timberwork, this is the room to
do it. Even if you can only afford just
one or two striking designs, go for it.
Youll create a sophisticated look that
matches the grand scale of the room.
13. Dressing Up
Its often said that the windows are
the eyes of the home. With such an
important role, they need to be
dressed beautifully. A great way to create instant visual impact is with dramatic draperies. Hang curtain panels
about a foot higher than your windows
to create a lighter and brighter feel in
the space, not to mention the optical illusion of added height. Hanging
the curtains directly atop the windows
keeps the room darker and could obstruc your views.
Arched windows or odd-shaped
windows can be dressed with balloon
shades, Roman blinds or roller shades.
Many fanciful designs are available; just
avoid choosing something too overdone. After all, you dont want to interfere with your homes greatest luxury of
all: the timbers.

Asphalt shingles are the most common material used on roofs today, primarily because
they are affordable and dont require much
maintenance, not to mention they come in a
variety of colors and styles. The downside?
Because theyre lightweight, they can blow
off during high winds, and they tend to degrade faster in regions with high solar load,
such as the Southwest or Florida. Being so
susceptible to natures forces also means
composite shingles tend to have a shorter
lifespan than other materials used on timberhome roofs.

ipping your morning coffee while watching a workout of the state ballet
company is one of the surprising activities you can enjoy in Charleston,
West Virginia. Yes, you read that correctly ballet and West Virginia in the
same sentence.
In the capital of a state too frequently dened by its history of coal mining
and the Hatelds & McCoys, Charleston is a perfect example of why it pays
to get out and explore the world on
your own terms. The Charleston area,
as with all of West Virginia, is ideally
suited for those who enjoy the ruggedness of wood homes in a complementary natural environment. Not quite the
Blue Ridge Mountains and Shenandoah River that John Denver sang of in
the ofcial state song, Take Me Home,
Country Roads, Charleston and western West Virginia is dened by the Appalachian Mountains and two rivers
the Elk and the Kanawha.
More than half of the people who
call the Mountain State home choose
to live in the rural areas and smaller
towns throughout the state. But that
doesnt mean that great shopping,
gourmet restaurants and all of the accoutrements of living in more populated communities are not available.
The West Virginia State Ballet, for
book
most residents and visitors choose
this region because of the outdoor
attractions. All four seasons are fairly
represented on the meteorological
calendar, with an average summer
high of 72 in July and a January low
of 32. The spring wildowers and autumn colors compete with the best
Mother Nature has to offer in the remaining 49 states.
Motorcyclists fall in love with the
winding roads and beautiful scenery
of West Virginias byways, but in recent
years, the state has become extremely
popular with ATV riders. The Hateld-McCoy Trail System, with more
than 700 miles, is the largest off-road
trail in the world.
Arguably the best white water rafting
east of the Mississippi River takes place
along the Gauley and Tygart rivers. The
New River is another great waterway,
but it is best known for the New River
Gorge Bridge, the most photographed
image in West Virginia. At more than
3,000 feet long and more than 850 feet
high, this is where youll nd base jumpers, rappelers and other thrill seekers
on Bridge Day each October. But any
day of the year, you can harness up to a
cable system and take a stroll along the
bridges catwalk and take in all that
beautiful West Virginia has to offer.

Space-Saving Solutions
Want to make your home feel bigger? Here are some ideas
that worked in this eye-catching timber home:
1. Go for taller windows and doors around the house
to enhance the illusion of space, and to help bring more
of the outside in.
2. Aim for a simple, clean look with strong but elegant natural
materials. Avoid complicated details that might add to cost
and make the home feel too busy.
3. Plan for an open layout between the kitchen, living room
and dining room to add instant volume to your home.
4. Incorporate plenty of outdoor living space to expand
your square footage.
5. Use a minimal amount of hallways to maximize
the space you have.

Morgan came to us requesting an eco-conscious,
healthy house.
A practicing architect for 16 years, Farleys
design philosophy is to build socially conscious,
green homes. It comes down to the ecological
footprint of a home this often translates into
the literal footprint, says Farley. Smaller homes
can have less impact on the environment and, if
designed well, can function even better than a
larger house. In other words, to Farley, smaller

From there, Hall took things a step further, installing oppy bits in the house,
a European term for incorporating
small pieces of membrane material behind the posts for added insulation.
We really wanted to create a continuous barrier all along the prole of

because there are hidden blind areas.
If you get it right, the house is virtually

provide a place to enjoy breakfast,
snacks and casual meals.
If you desire a large island, keep in
mind that the National Kitchen and
Bath Association recommends a 39inch walkway between counter seating
and walls or cabinets. That way, seated
diners will have plenty of space to enjoy
their meals without hitting their heads
on the cabinets.
Countertop heights can be varied
in numerous ways to efciently provide
a dining space in a cozy kitchen. One
popular conguration is to design an
island or breakfast bar with a food-prep
surface on the kitchen side and higher,
pub-table-height seating on the other.

a peek inside
Cottage
Living
When Rebbecca Abair envisioned her perfect home, it looked like a little cottage
as picture-perfect as its view of the sea. By working with the design director at
a timber-frame company, Rebbeccas vision came to life in the form of a simple
design, snug and compatible with its Puget Sound environment.
Approach the cottage, and youre greeted by a agstone path that winds its way
to the front door. Inside, the 800-square-foot main level features an open oor plan.
An attached sunroom serves as the dining area. The 350-square-foot loft is her
master bedroom and bath. Throughout the home, windows frame views of the
waterfront location and the sweeping deck provides added outdoor living space.
