In Praise of Lofts

Lofts. Grand open spaces which lend themselves to your wildest design sense. That’s how they’re promoted, at least. 16′ high ceilings with great wall space begging for your artistic contributions (or someone more talented than yourself, at least). Only four walls with a stair case to the sleeping quarters above means […]

Does it Matter what Car your Realtor Drives

We had a meeting this morning (a really good one, actually) that brought up a lot of tips on how to be successful as a realtor.  On of the points, though, brought a bit of a cringe to me (and a few others, I think).  That point was “Perception is Everything”

1331 West Georgia - The Pointe

Mike Chadwick, in a May 12, 2007, Vancouver Sun article titled “10 Buildings Downtown to Call Home: A Chronicler’s Favourites” chose the futurist design, The Point, as one of those 10. He had this to say:
