3 Important Points You Need To Ace Your Dream Home Design

On average, American home buyers spend 124 hours browsing for a house that would be a good fit for them. Hence, it’s no wonder people just want to get a custom home built instead of going through the time-consuming process of finding a good pre-made house that meets their needs. So, how do you get started on the process? If you’re looking to build your own custom home, it’s important to ace these three points to achieve the best results. 

Find a Good Building Contractor

Finding the home builder that’s right for you can be a bit of a mission, as home builders can vary in terms of experience, specialization, and of course, pricing. To get a good handle on the average amount of cash you’d need to put forward, get quotes from multiple contractors. However, that isn’t all you’d need to do to determine the right builder for the job.

You’d also need to background-check the contractors that you’re eyeing. This is to verify their experience and qualifications, as well as if they specialize in the biggest parts of your home design. It’s also important to get to know the builders themselves, to gauge if they’re trustworthy enough to be transparent about expenses and project time frames. 

Renting Construction Equipment

Costs for custom home building average at around $200 per square foot. This includes everything from materials and building tools to personnel. Building contractors have enough basic tools and some heavy equipment to begin construction, but most projects would need even heavier or more specialized equipment to complete the job up to specifications. Such equipment includes heavy-duty concrete mixer trucks and dump trucks and an aerial equipment rental fleet

When renting such equipment, it’s important to look at the rental options that equipment rental services offer and see if they match up with your needs and budget. For example, it may turn out that your building project would need a certain piece of equipment for a shorter or longer time than expected. In that event, flexible rental options that only charge per day are ideal. 

Perfecting the Future-Proof Design

Many custom-built homes follow current-day aesthetic trends rather than practical designs, and so their homes quickly become obsolete when it comes to catching up with future circumstances. As an example, many custom homes were made to facilitate the life of a bachelor or a young couple, with little consideration for when the owners marry or start a family. All too often that results in homeowners selling their homes because it is no longer compatible with their new lifestyle.

To avoid such an outcome, it’s important to find an experienced architect or designer. You would need to coordinate closely with them to get advice on how to incorporate features to your build in anticipation for the future, as well as recommendations on practical industry trends. The right architect can not only future-proof your home and fill it with plenty of quality-of-life features, but will also prevent you from spending extra on renovations in the long run.

Custom houses provide aspiring homeowners with tailor-made solutions that production homes just can’t provide most of the time. While it may seem that custom houses take a lot more effort, you need only get the above points down to a T to achieve the house of your dreams.

·         Significant sales growth in all regions worldwide

·         50 new jobs created to meet expanded global demand

·         Record number of Apprenticeship Programme recruits in 2019  

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has delivered an historic annual sales record in 2019, with a global performance unequalled in the company’s 116-year history. A total of 5,152 cars were delivered to customers in over 50 countries around the world, an increase of 25% on the previous high set in 2018. With these historic results, Rolls-Royce continues to make a meaningful contribution to the overall performance of its shareholder, BMW Group.

Commenting on the results, Torsten Müller-Ötvös, CEO, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, said: “This performance is of an altogether different magnitude to any previous year’s sales success. While we celebrate these remarkable results, we are conscious of our key promise to our customers, to keep our brand rare and exclusive. We are pleased and proud to have delivered growth of 25% in 2019. Worldwide demand last year for our Cullinan SUV has driven this success and is expected to stabilize in 2020. It is a ringing testament to the quality and integrity of our products, the faith and passion of our customers and, above all, the skill, dedication and determination of our exceptional team at the Home of Rolls-Royce at Goodwood and around the world and our dedicated global dealer network.”

Worldwide Sales Growth

Sales grew across all regions during the year, driven by strong customer demand for all Rolls‑Royce models. The company reported significant sales growth in every one of its key global markets. North America retained top status (around a third of global sales) followed by China and Europe (including UK). Individual countries that achieved record sales results included Russia, Singapore, Australia, Qatar and Japan. In 2019, Rolls-Royce motor cars were sold in more than 50 countries worldwide through a global network of 135 dealerships. As part of its commitment to long-term sustainable growth, Rolls‑Royce announced two new dealerships during 2019 – Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Brisbane and Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Shanghai Pudong. Development of the new Rolls-Royce Motor Cars flagship dealership in Berkeley Street, London – more than twice the size of the previous location – is underway and is due for launch in 2020.

Strong Demand for All Models

Phantom retains its rightful place as the company’s pinnacle product, with Dawn and Wraith continuing to dominate their respective sectors; strong demand was experienced for all three models during the year. Cullinan, the marque’s new SUV, successfully translated the media plaudits and public acclaim into the largest advance order book and fastest post‑launch sales growth of any Rolls-Royce model in history. In November 2019, the marque completed its dark, edgy Black Badge family with the addition of Cullinan Black Badge alongside Ghost, Dawn and Wraith variants, all of which were highly sought-after by customers seeking a more individual, rebellious expression of the Rolls‑Royce brand.

Cullinan: ‘Effortless Everywhere’ delivering on its promise

In its first full year of availability, Cullinan exceeded even the highest expectations raised by its successful launch. The world’s pre-eminent super-luxury SUV has become the fastest-selling new Rolls-Royce model in history. The fervor throughout the year around the arrival of Cullinan was matched only by the media and public sensation occasioned by the launch of Cullinan Black Badge, ‘The King of the Night’, in November. This completed the Black Badge family of unapologetic, dynamic products created for an emerging generation of super-luxury consumer; people who refuse to be defined by traditional codes of luxury, follow their own path and make their own rules.

Farewell to Ghost – But Not for Long!

2019 marked the end of Ghost production after 11 years of uninterrupted commercial and critical success. Since its launch at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2009, Ghost has established itself as an undisputed modern classic. The most popular Rolls-Royce model of the Goodwood era, Ghost attracted a new audience of younger, often self-made, entrepreneurial customers to the Rolls-Royce brand. An extended wheelbase version was introduced in 2011 and an updated Ghost Series II was unveiled in Geneva in 2014. The last Ghost of the current generation left the Goodwood production line at the end of 2019. Ghost has been a highly successful and vitally important car for Rolls-Royce. Over its 11-year lifecycle – a truly remarkable record for any motor car – it became the biggest-selling Rolls-Royce not just of the Goodwood era, but in the entire history of the marque. The commercial success of Ghost placed Rolls-Royce in a position to scale up its production and make the massive investments that have led to it becoming the truly global brand it is today.

Ghost’s successor is due for launch in mid-2020 after five years in development. With market availability from the fourth quarter, the successor will elevate the Ghost name, and the company itself, to new heights of excellence and ambition in design, engineering, materials and driving dynamics.

Bespoke: The Jewel in the Crown of Rolls-Royce

Global demand for Rolls-Royce Bespoke reached a new peak in 2019. The Bespoke Collective at The Home of Rolls-Royce in Goodwood, West Sussex, comprises several hundred creative designers, engineers and craftspeople. These highly talented men and women take enormous pride in fulfilling unprecedented levels of customer requests for Bespoke personalisation and delivering on beautiful individual commissions such as the Rose Phantom. Undisputed global leaders in their pursuit of perfection, the Bespoke Collective captured the imagination of customers, enthusiasts, media and fans alike in 2019 with some of the most spectacular Collection Cars ever created in the history of the brand. Bespoke IS Rolls-Royce! Among the year’s Bespoke highlights was the Zenith Collector’s Edition of Rolls-Royce Ghost. Limited to just 50 examples, this masterpiece was created to mark the end of Ghost’s remarkable 11-year reign.

Wraith Eagle VIII celebrated the centenary of Alcock and Brown’s first non-stop transatlantic flight (powered by twin Rolls-Royce Eagle engines). Tranquillity Phantom, inspired by space exploration, features a unique Gallery inspired by the X-Ray coded aperture masks used on the British Skylark space rocket and, for the first time in a Rolls-Royce, incorporates meteorite as an aesthetic embellishment. New accessories added to the existing, much celebrated Bespoke offering included the exceptional Rolls-Royce Champagne Chest.

An Expanding Family

At more than 2,000 strong, with 50 nationalities represented, the workforce at the Home of Rolls-Royce is now at its largest since the opening of Rolls-Royce’s Global Centre for Luxury Manufacturing Excellence, in 2003. During 2020, 50 new jobs were created to meet expanded global demand.

This year’s intake of 26 new entrants on the company’s highly successful Apprenticeship Program included the first-ever Sir Ralph Robins Degree Apprenticeship candidates. Named after the ex-CEO of Rolls‑Royce plc, Sir Ralph has served as a non-executive Director of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars since its inception in 2003.

Since the launch of the Apprenticeship Program in 2006, almost 200 participants have completed a combination of hands-on practical training alongside skilled Associates and vocational training at local colleges. A number of these remarkable young men and women have gone on to hold important technical and supervisory roles within the company.    

Confidence in the future

The year saw significant new investment in the manufacturing plant at the Home of Rolls-Royce at Goodwood, reaffirming both the company’s commitment to its UK operations and its buoyant outlook for the years ahead. Projects included further refinements to the already world-class manufacturing facilities, equipment and processes, to maximize efficiency and ensure the highest levels of quality as demanded by Rolls-Royce customers. A new two-story development, due for completion in the first quarter of 2020, will add more than 1,000 square meters to the ground floor Assembly Hall, and create additional first-floor office space. In closing, Mr. Müller-Ötvös said, “There is no other company like Rolls-Royce Motor Cars: we are all conscious of what a privilege it is to design, build and deliver the best car in the world for our customers.  PersonalIy, I continue to feel honored and humbled to have led this great company for the past decade.”

SKITZ KRAVEN CELEBRATES NEW YEAR WITH MUSIC; LAUNCHES #NEWMUSICMONDAYS SEASON 3

STARTS MONDAY, JANUARY 6 WITH “BAD DAY”

http://youtu.be/gcvzzroq8oe
http://www.skitzkraven.com

Midwest-bred, multifaceted rapper-singer-songwriter and the self-styled horrorcore master of hip-hop sKitz Kraven launches Season 3 of his highly anticipated and acclaimed “New Music Mondays” program starting Monday, January 6. New Music Monday has been a staple fan favorite for years and 2020 brings it back with vengeance. Keep watch and experience a new track every Monday on all platforms. Kraven will release a music video each month as part of New Music Mondays to give fans even more content to devour.

Kraven kicks off his #NewMusicMondays tradition with the first single titled ‘Bad Day.” He says, “If you’ve been a victim of the Monday blues or just a bad day overall, then this track will let you know that you are not the only one going through this.” As sKitz battles life of fame and money, he also relates to the general public by talking about fake friends and everyday struggles. “New Music Mondays are a New Year’s gift to the fans who have sustained me,” he adds. “I’m rewarding their loyalty and support the only way I know how—with more music.”

“If you mix Eminem, Lil Wayne, Gucci Mane, and Stephen King with a little bit of Tim Burton, you get me,” continues Kraven. However, with three full-length albums, including his most recent full-length, Hollow, and multiple smash singles—including his most popular single “That’s All,” which currently has over 5,416,000 views on YouTube and 6,793,086 streams on Spotify–sKitz is already on track to become something much bigger than “horrorcore.” Kraven could well deserve the sobriquet: the “Marilyn Manson” of hip hop.

Using rap music as a coping mechanism to handle his mental health diagnoses and to overcome addiction—which he discusses frankly and transparently in this video, sKitz’s lyrics can tend towards the raw and emotive, allowing listeners an escape of their own and feel solidarity that they aren’t alone in their struggles.

However, while some of his music may be heavy and grimy—much like the horror movies he grew up on and pays homage to in his music and videos—he’s also built his huge, fanatical following by being versatile with singles that delve into lighter, more mainstream genres including R&B love songs, hip-hop bangers and club mixes, including his previous singles, “Pardon the Interruption,” “Already Dead,” “Breathe” and “Starting 5.”

Kraven’s future plans include a live tour, news videos and a compilation album from the songs premiered on NMM Season 3.

About sKitz Kraven:

sKitz Kraven is an American rapper, singer, and songwriter from Sun Prairie, Wisconsin currently, living in Los Angeles, California. With a horrorcore aesthetic and a versatile catalog, sKitz Kraven is making a large impact in the underground hip hop scene. Kraven is best known for his most popular singles “Magic” and “That’s All”. After releasing an EP titled After Hours, 2 mixtapes ( Wonderland and Black Snow) and 2 compilation albums ( #NewMusicMondays (The Collection) and #NewMusicMondays (The Collection Vol. 2)), and his most recent album Hollow, Kraven has gained a cult following with a worldwide fan base. With his dark sound, intense rhyme scheme and in-your-face delivery, sKitz Kraven is impossible to ignore.

TaylorMade Golf

TaylorMade Unveils the New Shape of Performance with the Introduction of SIM Metalwoods
 
SHAPE IN MOTION
The SIM family of drivers – SIM, SIM Max and SIM Max•D – all feature the revolutionary new clubhead shape with an Aerodynamic Asymmetric Sole and Inertia Generator. These shape-inspired innovations work together to improve forgiveness while also increasing aerodynamics and clubhead speed at the most critical stage of the swing: the last three feet right before impact.
 
Also known as the speed generation zone, this is where the most meaningful increase in clubhead speed occurs. SIM drivers are engineered to improve aerodynamics and clubhead speed during this critical phase of the downswing.
 
To reduce drag and improve airflow throughout the swing, the drivers feature a raised crown and sole. Typically, when a crown and sole are raised to improve aerodynamics, it can come with a tradeoff of a higher center of gravity (CG). However, SIM drivers counteract this with the Inertia Generator, positioned low and back with a heavy steel weight at the rear of the clubhead. This design moves the CG projection very low, optimizing launch conditions and increasing moment of inertia (MOI) – and also providing additional forgiveness.
 
Simply put, TaylorMade has designed a driver with no tradeoffs. SIM is fast, forgiving, promotes favorable launch conditions and has one of the hottest faces in golf.
 
During aerodynamic testing, TaylorMade discovered the need to rotate the Inertia Generator to match the direction of airflow within the speed generation zone. The result is air that moves smoothly across the sole on the downswing and enhanced clubhead speed.

Starting Your New Year With Best Home Makeover Tips

Everyone prays that this New Year brings prosperity, love and prayers for the ones they care about. They greet them with all the affection they can exhibit. The first day in both the Gregorian and Julian Calendar holds a special moment for people all around the world. And it is the time of the year when you can get almost anything you desire, from Q-Tip to Moon Rock.

People plan to give the best outlook to their house before making it their residence. They make a list of plans from which only a tiny portion gets done. And the rest of them becomes an idea on your sticky notes. So, this time, on the occasion of New Year, we have collected the best views on Starting Your New Year with Best Home Makeover Tips.

1. Revamp Your Entry.

The first thing that any trespasser or visitor will see is the door of your home. Forget them, and it is the first thing that you know when you enter — the way from your porch to your foyer that needs to be maintained. Make proper shoe stand, dog leashes, hang decorative and shiny ribbons on the front to make every visitor feel like celebrating. After some time, replace them with small and stencils.

2. Refurnish Your Garden Space.

Everyone loves a garden in their home. A big-sized garden or small-terrace area, the garden gives the soothing sensation that everybody loves. Cover the garden area with glass walls so that the water when sprinkled washes down as compared to non-washable brick or wood. Cover your balcony or your terrace with glass walls so that they increase the level of beauty from outside, and plants get proper sunlight too.

Growing creepers over your entrance or your stairs give a better look than the rest of the places. Snake plant, Pothos, Dracaena, Spider Plant, Bromeliad are some of the most in-houseplants you can go for. Check for the plants which release carbon dioxide at night to avoid suffocation. Orchids and Snake plants do the opposite and emit oxygen in the night, which can be put in your bedroom. Keep small pot or hanging plants in your workplace.

3. Add Some Art to Your Walls.

It’s the first day of refreshing 365 days period, and everyone will be coming to take a look at their neighbor’s decor. And the first thing that they see after your sweets is the walls of your home. Your walls glorify a lot about the order of mindset that you take within yourself. The images, the graphics, the wall paintings, and posters all add up to the scenery. And what’s more comfortable than preparing a set of portraits with your family photos who dignify what you are.

Try CanvasPop. The best quality collage prints can make the best use of your wall space. Showing love to your walls and connecting your feelings with them, CanvasPop makes the human as well as pet portraits at its best. Many Background Styles from Woodcut Plates to Synthetic Cloth Outlets to choose from. No necessity of a well-maintained copy. Even the photos from your social media account can be processed. The final piece that you will see will be enough to make you and everyone who sees it gasp for a moment.

4. Update Your Light Fixtures.

The fourth most important thing anyone observes is the lighting. Take proper lighting measures in the kitchen and drawing-room. Try setting the light in the middle of the room to maximize the glow at every corner. Use LEDs instead of table lamps under the covering. Look at the types of light for which you can buy one for your own home.

 1. Ambient: The light with overall illumination. 

 2. Task: The light present over the kitchen island or a reading nook.

 3. Accent: The decorative ones.

5. Streamline the Stuff.

Whether you like it or not, you have to purge your home of necessary items. All the clothes you don’t wear old furniture and everything that adds up in little to contribute to the big. Never start clearing out the clutter from your storeroom. It will demotivate you. Remove all the empty boxes from your kitchen cabinets. You can also make your cabinets look new by applying a new coat over them. Try keeping it in the dark and retro look so that it looks mesmerizing.

For rooms, Try from your bedroom instead. This time, bring those items that cheer you up and fills positivity in the home. Prevent any broken item in the house that drains energy. DVDs, Remote, Chargers, and those shoes you still imagine they fit you all of these falls under the section of cluttering. Keep smaller yet those things that you can connect yourself to.

6. Your Floor Need Care Too.

There might be a hard chance that your house doesn’t have tiles in any section. And as many years pass by, we forget them to clean, and they become dull and ugly. Try bringing in professional in yourself and make them shine like new with a mixture of baking soda, water, and some lemon juice. For hard tiles on your driveway, vinegar can be added to the solution to remove old tire prints.

7. Last but Not the Least, Your Bedroom.

Your bedroom needs the most attention; after all, this is your favorite spot in the house. Keep light-colored curtains on windows to ensure proper light comes from outside. Make your bed look bigger by removing the extra cushions. Keep bolsters to help your back problems from small cushions. Make leveled folds in your mattress to give a classic look. Put one mirror at least in your bedroom or every room in your house. Mirror bounces the light in the room and maintains the energy level.

We have tried to cover almost every part of your house. From the entrance to your kitchen, from the bathroom to your bedroom, every place needs some love and care like humans. Try sharing some affection with your house this year and awaits you the rain of calmness and a lot of appraisals from everyone that steps to your doorsteps.
