Elegant, sophisticated, simply beautiful are these words you would use to describe your dream kitchen? Even just adding a coat of paint, new lighting and carefully chosen decorative details can bring your current kitchen a bit closer to that dream. Here are 10 upgrades to consider.
1. Roman shades. Covering the window with a classic Roman shade gives the kitchen a finished look. Go with a color and a pattern that coordinate with your cabinet and wall color, or stick with natural linen, which goes with everything.

2. Topiary. A pair of topiaries flanking the sink is an elegant finishing touch. Use a vintage champagne bucket as a cachepot, or wrap a simple pot in burlap and tie on a velvet bow. If your kitchen gets a good amount of natural light, by all means get real plants but if not, theres no shame in picking up a couple of high-quality fakes.
3. Pendant lighting. Swapping out a plain ceiling light fixture for something with more style can be done quickly and your new pendant light can become the focal point of the room. Dont be afraid to go big; even in a small kitchen like the one shown here, a sizable pendant looks striking, not overpowering.
Find that just-right pendant light for your dream kitchen
4. A rich cabinet color. Whether you paint your cabinets or stain them a natural wood tone, a rich color is a high-impact, low cost way to change the look of your kitchen. Try a saturated hue like the blue-green shown here, or a chic gray or slate on just the lower cabinets.
5. Wall paint. If you dont want to repaint or restain your cabinets, another way to bring in color is by painting the walls. With all of the appliances and cabinetry, kitchen wall space is often fairly limited which means not only is it quicker to paint, but the color is less likely to overwhelm than in, say, the living room. Try a smoky blue, rich greige or warm mocha.
6. Upscale counter stools. There are so many options when it comes to kitchen counter seating that theres no reason to stick with plain bar stools, unless you want to. Try classic bistro stools (like the ones shown here), sculptural wooden stools or sleek Lucite ones.

10 Upgrades For A Touch Of Kitchen Elegance
Portman Holdings plans to break ground on its planned new office tower at South College and Stonewall streets in June, the real estate company said Tuesday.
The 19-story building, to be called 615 South College, will be adjacent to the Westin Charlotte Hotel, which Portman also owns. The office building, first announced in May 2013, is set to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2016, Portman said.
This city continues to be a desirable, high quality office market and an attractive lifestyle destination, so were naturally thrilled about this office development, said Portman CEO Ambrish Baisiwala, in a statement.
The building is one of several new office towers planned for uptown, after the recession and subsequent slow recovery:
Last week, the Goodyear auto repair shop at South Tryon and Stonewall streets closed, making way for a 27-story mixed-use tower called Tryon Place that Crescent Communities plans to build.
A 25-story office tower is set to break ground at South Tryon and Third streets later this year, developed by Spectrum Properties.
And Trinity Capital is planning to build a 14-story tower at Morehead and South Tryon streets.
The 615 South College building will total 370,000 square feet of Class A office space. The building is aiming for a LEED Gold energy efficiency certification, and will include flourishes such as two-story outdoor balconies on the corners, floor-to-ceiling windows, a fitness center, locker rooms and a conference center.
The developers will be able to build quickly because Portman is building atop an existing parking deck, the company said.
Travis Garland of Portman and Charlotte-based Trinity Partners will market the building. This building will offer unmatched branding opportunities for large tenants, provide efficient floor plates, and it will be a distinct landmark in the Charlotte skyline, Garland said in a statement.

Office tower construction next to Westin to start in June
Mansfield, TX (PRWEB) October 28, 2014
Ramtech Building Systems, Mansfield, Texas has announced that the City of Austin, Texas has awarded the company a contract to provide an 8,064 square foot modular office building for the city's Watershed Protection Department. The new facility will provide space for 14 private offices, a conference room, a large training classroom, and restrooms with showers and adjacent locker areas. The project will also incorporate a number of sustainable features into the building's design and construction, beginning with the use of Ramtech's traditional permanent modular construction approach. This construction method results in substantially reduced materials waste and improved air quality by utilizing a factory controlled manufacturing environment that segregates the building materials from the exposure to inclement weather. The use of a simultaneous offsite and on-site construction process also minimizes the disturbance to the environment by reducing the number of vehicles and equipment that are required at the building site. Other sustainable features that are incorporated into the building's design include a white reflective TPO roof that reduces heat island effect, water use reduction strategies for the restrooms, and optimized energy performance that builds on the 2009 International Energy Conservation Code. This includes heating and cooling with the use of Lennox "L" Series high-efficiency zoned rooftop HVAC units, but because the building will incur infrequent high occupancy loads only during training sessions in a small section of the building, CO2 sensors and energy recovery ventilators will also be installed to meter the flow of outside air in order to match the usage demand during peak and off peak periods. The building will also include several 10 inch Solatube Day Lighting skylights to increase the natural light in the interior spaces, as well as provisions to incorporate photovoltaic panels into a field constructed south facing awning and sunshades over all window openings. The interior will be finished out using low VOC emitting materials including Altro CS, a PPC-free sheet vinyl floor covering.
The City of Austin's Watershed Protection Department was established in 1991 to manage the city's creeks, drainage systems and water quality programs. The city is relocating the Watershed Protection Department personnel from an outdated and smaller facility that the city had been leasing, to the new modular building which will be located at the department's Dalton Lane location. Ramtech anticipates completion of the project by June 30, 2015.
About Ramtech Building Systems Since 1982 Ramtech Building Systems has been providing innovative modular buildings for government agencies, healthcare providers, Fortune 500 companies, and educational institutions throughout the Southern United States. As a design-build construction company, Ramtech offers full in-house design, a manufacturer direct product, and complete site construction services all within a single-source solution. The City of Austin project will be manufactured at Ramtechs Mansfield, TX headquarters, part of a 20-acre development located in the southern part of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. Structured as a vertically integrated design-build construction company, Ramtech provides space planning, design services, manufacturing, site construction and finish-out on every project they produce.

The latest Dublin office review from DTZ Sherry FitzGerald confirms last weeks record returns reported for the sector by IPD.
Dublins central business district (CBD) office market has entered a new phase in the recovery cycle, according to the DTZ report, as a shortage of space is fuelling double digit rental growth up 33 per cent so far in 2014.
Occupier demand within Dublins CBD strengthened during the third quarter of 2014 as office leasing activity rose to its highest level since the final quarter of 2007, says Marian Finnegan, chief economist at DTZ Sherry FitzGerald.
Total take-up in the CBD stood at 83,600sq m in the year to date, up 93 per cent on the corresponding period in 2013. A further 21,800sq m was signed and is awaiting occupation.
Demand for office space in the capital remains largely concentrated in the CBD with lettings in this area in the year to date accounting for 47 per cent of overall take-up in Dublin. This compares with pre-crisis levels of 33 per cent.
There is an acute shortage of available Grade A office space in the CBD market capable of accommodating large scale office requirements, says Ms Finnegan. The last remaining large office building measuring in excess of 10,000sq m [Grand Canal Square, Block 5] was reserved during the third quarter.
Further analysis of the figures shows there was 57,350sq m of Grade A space unoccupied in the CBD, but 73 per cent of this is either signed or reserved. This highlights the critically low levels of top Grade A1 accommodation available in the city, according to the report, and could potentially compromise Dublins attractiveness to corporate occupiers, both domestic and overseas.
Meanwhile, there is just 22,500sq m of new office space under construction in the CBD at the end of September, equivalent to 1.3 per cent of overall stock. As a result, its of little surprise that DTZ is reporting that rental growth accelerated in the CBD area during the third quarter of 2014. Prime headline rents in the CBD stood at 468 per sq m at the end of September, up 33 per cent since the beginning of the year. Rents are forecast to rise to 520 per sq m in 2015, according to the agency.
Take-up of office space in the Dublin office market for the third quarter of 2014 stood at 41,450sq m almost a third higher than the second quarter. A number of significant occupations took place, including William Fry occupying almost 9,000sq m at 2 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, and Amazon taking 6,500sq m at Burlington Plaza, Dublin 4.

Office leasing rises to highest level since 2007
After the Corporation approved construction on a new applied math building, designs are being finalized and foundation work is kicking into full swing over the next few weeks.
The Corporations Committee on Budget and Finance gave the go-ahead at its meeting this month for construction to begin. The structure will be built in the parking lot next to Barus and Holley close to the current home of the Division of Applied Math at 182 George St. Construction is set to begin next month and finish December 2015, The Herald previously reported.
Architectural Research Office, the architecture firm responsible for the Friedman Study Center and the Institute for Computational and Experimental Research in Mathematics, will design the building, while landscape architecture firm Gustafson Guthrie Nichol will map out the placement of the new structure and ensure the landscape design of the site match(es) with the design of the University campus, said Stephen Maiorisi, vice president for Facilities Management.
The new building is currently undergoing a design build process that allows construction to start before the design is complete, Maiorisi said. Foundation work is set to start within the next month, while the buildings exterior and interior designs are still being finished and will then await the Corporations approval.
The driver was the engineering building, Maiorisi said of the new applied math construction.
At the moment, some of the departments faculty members and graduate students are located in two historic houses that must be torn down to clear space for the new engineering building, Maiorisi said. Construction on the new engineering complex will begin once the faculty members and students settle into their spaces in the new applied math building.
Collaboration between University administrative teams involved in the building plans and the Division of Applied Math has been key to the efficiency of the designing and planning process, Maiorisi said. We work very closely with the faculty to make sure that whatever is being proposed is something thats going to enhance their program.
Hongjie Dong, associate professor of applied math and head of the undergraduate program, said the new building will offer more benefits for the graduate program than for the undergraduate program.
I think for graduate students, they will definitely benefit from the new building because it will be a much more renovated building, Dong said. They will probably get more space for their offices, and the common room will be a bit larger than the current one.
Though the new applied math facility will have a modern aesthetic, its design will contrast with that of the engineering building, Maiorisi said. The scale of the buildings are very different the applied math building is planned to be 13,000 square feet and the engineering building over 90,000 square feet so the designs must take this into consideration, he added.
