The contemporary home design conveys a modern, yet comfortable twist that is aimed at an active, family-friendly lifestyle. The Ferndale model is a star in **the 2016 Homearama® event.** | ![Clear_Creek_05.jpg](https://blog.ksikitchens.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog_Images/Homearama/Clear_Creek_05.jpg?width=640&name=Clear_Creek_05.jpg) | | --- | | *Interior Design for Arteva Homes' Ferndale model by Patti Mitchell from Gorman's furniture.* | KSI Designer Ed York created the cabinetry design for the home’s kitchen and bathrooms, playing off the [contemporary](http://www.ksikitchens.com/gallery_kitchen_contemporary.html) clean lines to support the sleek and fresh, yet relaxed theme. | ![Clear_Creek_07.jpg](https://blog.ksikitchens.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog_Images/Homearama/Clear_Creek_07.jpg?width=640&name=Clear_Creek_07.jpg) | | --- | | *Bathroom cabinetry designed for Arteva Homes' Ferndale model by KSI Designer, Ed York.* | “My goal was to create efficient work spaces that function well and look great,” shared York, who used a selection of Merillat cabinetry throughout the kitchen and bathrooms to achieve the desired look and functionality. York has a few suggestions for homeowners who are considering updates: 1. **Bring your Bathroom a New Look** - If you aren’t ready for a complete renovation, consider replacing a vanity, countertop, and faucet, along with a fresh coat of paint and a few other embellishments (light fixtures, towel bars, window treatments, etc.) This will make a dramatic difference in a bathroom. If all the products are purchased in advance, a modest sized bathroom could be renovated in a weekend. 2. **Kitchens add Value** - One of the best returns on investment you can make in your home is a kitchen remodel. And you get to enjoy it every day! | ![Clear_Creek_03.jpg](https://blog.ksikitchens.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog_Images/Homearama/Clear_Creek_03.jpg?width=640&name=Clear_Creek_03.jpg) | | --- | | *Kitchen cabinetry designed for Arteva Homes' Ferndale model by KSI Designer, Ed York.* | The 2016 Homearama event features eight custom built homes, all located in a single location, that will be open to the public on weekends, from Sept. 23 through Oct. 9th.
