Celebrity Style: At Home with Interior Designer and Philly’s Own Sheila Bridges

by

Born and raised in Philadelphia, Sheila Bridges embodies the eclectic spirit of the city wherever she calls home, always referencing her African-American ancestry in both large and small ways. Her new farmhouse, which is about 3 hours up I95 and beyond, boldly combines everything she loves in just 1,600 square feet. It may seem tiny to some, but those who grew up in a Philly-area rowhome know it’s plenty of space if you know how to work it.

The Kids Tipi: Where Culture, History, and Playtime Meet

by

When I was young, we played inside a cardboard box. To be fair, it was a very large box—a playhouse, in fact, brightly decorated with the cast of Looney Tunes. We kept it in the basement, along with our play kitchen and other toys, and spent many days enjoying a space that was just for us kids. Times have changed. Cardboard has given way to elaborate outdoor forts and treehouses, as well as a current trend, the stylish children’s tipi. Indoors or out, a tipi is now the hottest place for playdates, story time, and just having fun.

Celebrity Style: At Home with NBA Star Devin Booker

by

Situated just outside Phoenix with scenic views of the Mountains Preserve, the home of NBA star Devin Booker feels more like a resort than a bachelor pad. Though the home’s curb appeal is a bit underwhelming, what’s hidden out back absolutely stuns. Sliding glass walls give way to the Bali-inspired pool, adjacent gardens, and outdoor living spaces. It’s the perfect retreat after a hard day on the court.

A Design Trend for Halloween and Beyond

by

When it comes to the holidays, I’m often more excited, and dutiful, about putting up decorations than taking them down. After all, decorating is fun. Un-decorating? Well, not so much. This makes me a natural candidate for décor that works year-round. And what works better for Halloween and beyond than an occasional human skull? Appropriately spooky and always on trend, accessorizing with skulls is a design ‘do’ for those who dare!

Q3 2021 Housing Market Stats

by

As we look back on the housing market over the last year, we see just how in-demand the Philadelphia suburbs have become and continue to be. With residents spending so much time inside their homes, they have reprioritized what they are looking for when it comes to their next home. The majority of the workforce is still working from home either full-time, or in a hybrid capacity, meaning the home office, or space for a desk is still a high priority on the homebuyer’s list.
