Your home as a healthy haven
With the pandemic still swirling around us, the idea of home as haven continues to have a poignant meaning. Not only do we want to keep Covid out of our homes, but we want them to be safe environments in general.
Your home as an investment
For many if not most people, their home is the largest investment they will make in their lifetime. And while some are more “nesters” than others, a home is always something to be cared for.
Downsizing your home
Downsize while you’re still young, Cami Weinstein writes, so you can enjoy this new chapter in your life.
Home, sweet new home
With so many city apartment dwellers moving to the ’burbs, purchasing your first home is certainly trending.
Adding to your home
Not only do folks want to put their personal stamp on their beloved homes; they want to make them conducive to their post-Covid lifestyles. And that may mean adding space for home offices and multi-generational living, rather than upgrading to a house that has more square footage but is going to cost a lot and needs the same amount of work.
Home as a health haven
No one wants to spend time, effort and money on modifying a home to accommodate age and/or illness. But as home design columnist Cami Weinstein writes, a little preparation now can keep you out of the hospital and nursing home and reduce the strain on our health care system.
Know your design history
Designing spaces requires both knowledge and creativity. When you are thinking about designing your space, it’s important to think about the history of its style as well as the direction you want to take, writes WAG Wares columnist Cami Weinstein.

The art of living
