A well-designed kitchen is at the heart of any successful holiday gathering, offering both style and functionality to elevate your hosting experience. From prepping festive meals to entertaining guests, the right design elements make all the difference. Here are the top 5 kitchen design details every host should consider to create the perfect space for holiday celebrations.
5 KITCHEN ESSENTIALS FOR HOLIDAY HOSTING
1. Built-In Beverage Station
A much-needed upgrade from a traditional “garage fridge”, beverage stations are the underrated heroes of holiday hosting. Whether you’re a bartending enthusiast or need extra space for sodas and water, a home bar can transform your kitchen’s flow and become a standout feature. Display your favorite barware, keep drinks cold and out of your main fridge, and prep everything from craft mules to martinis in one place. This Arlington Heights bar, for example, features a prep sink and a hidden pellet ice maker—proof that thoughtful details can make all the difference in your holiday entertaining. Cheers!
2. Seating & Storage Island
Having a well-designed kitchen island is a holiday-hosting powerhouse. Custom islands are incredibly versatile, offering extra prep space, seating, and storage all at once. It’s a central spot for serving appetizers and hosting casual conversations, keeping guests close but out of the main cooking zone. Including shelving, outlets for small appliances, or a secondary sink in your kitchen island will streamline multitasking and help keep your kitchen organized and efficient during the busiest time of year – giving you more time to enjoy your company instead of stressing during meals. Fore more kitchen island inspo, check out our trending kitchen remodels.
3. Cabinet Accessories
Accessibility and organization are the cornerstones of successful holiday hosting, and thoughtful cabinet design will make all the difference. When planning your kitchen remodel, consider how you’ll use the space during the holiday season and work with your designer to incorporate functional cabinet accessories.
For avid bakers, a mixer lift or countertop appliance cabinet is a must—keeping your KitchenAid hidden when not in use but effortlessly accessible when it’s time for holiday baking. Toe-kick drawers are an elegant way to store seasonal trays and serving dishes, maximizing storage without encroaching on everyday storage. For your pantry and lower cabinets, roll-out shelves are crucial to ensure that pots, pans, and pantry items are always within easy reach. And don’t forget pull-out garbage cans to save floor space! Explore more kitchen storage solutions here.
4. Double Ovens & Warming Drawer
When cooking multiple dishes at once, double ovens are a holiday host’s best friend. They allow you to roast, bake, and keep everything at the perfect temperature without juggling oven space. Investing in a warming drawer is a smart decision if you plan to juggle multiple warm dishes and appetizers at once. Whether you’re keeping appetizers warm or holding the main course until everyone is ready to eat, a warming drawer helps streamline meal timing and allows you to focus on enjoying the gathering, not just the cooking.
5. Sink Workstation
A sink workstation is the perfect way to save counter space, dishes, and time during meal prep. Insert options are customizable to complement your needs. Some of our favorite sink workstation accessories are the utensil caddy, drying rack, produce/pasta strainer, and cutting board. For an added smart upgrade, consider investing in a touchless faucet for your workstation. With the wave of a hand, you can control water temperature and flow when your hands are messy.
With these five kitchen essentials, your home will be ready to handle the demands of holiday hosting with style and efficiency. As the season of entertaining approaches, take the time to thoughtfully think about your existing kitchen and what would make hosting more enjoyable. Invest in your kitchen now so you can focus on what truly matters for future gatherings: creating memorable moments and savoring time with loved ones. Happy hosting!

Home additions come in many shapes and sizes, and the homeowners we work with have shared a wealth of reasons for adding to their homes. Some need more room for their young families to grow, some have in-laws coming to live with them, and some want to enjoy more outdoor living space. For Jill and John in Hawthorn Woods, planning their addition project was a big part of their future. Family friends were starting to age in place by downsizing after their kids were grown, but less square footage wasn’t a goal the couple had in mind as they thought about the future.
REMODEL TOUR: SUNROOM ADDITION
As they thought about where they wanted to live long-term, they knew they wanted to stay in their beautiful neighborhood. With their hearts set on location, it became clear it was time to address square footage. They felt their home lacked a calm space to sit and relax, alone or with family. They partnered with Advance Design to design and build the future-proof solution: a single-story sunroom addition on the back of their existing home.
DESIGN WISHLIST
The backyard boasts beautiful views, and while they love spending time outside, Jill and John wanted a permanent room addition instead of a screen porch or a 3-season room.
The ADS team partnered with them to finalize plans for a sunny sitting room, designed to feel timeless and cozy.
Jill wanted the new room’s design to feel updated without clashing with the design of the rest of the home, which was built in 1987 but recently renovated. She wanted a bright material mix that felt timeless, complemented by walls of windows. The window placement is at the heart of this addition’s design, as natural lighting was a priority for the homeowners during the design phase.
INTERIOR FAVORITES
Jill and John love spending time in their new sunroom. They curated their brand new space to feel inviting, fitted with a cozy seating area and a dining area. The addition is located just off the kitchen and is a beautiful overflow option for hosting friends and family. The vaulted shiplap ceiling makes this room feel even more airy; Jill particularly loves how the chandelier looks suspended from above.
The spacious room is designed to encourage conversation and mindfulness, as reflected by our clients’ thoughtful choice to hang art between the windows rather than a television.
SEAMLESS TRANSITIONS
One element that should be carefully considered in any home addition is the tie-in and associated re-work that will be required to the existing structure. It’s crucial to make sure that every point of contact is sound and secure from the foundation up. Each addition’s tie-in will be different, depending on where the addition will connect to your home.
To ensure this new addition blended seamlessly with the original structure, the couple opted to have their whole home re-sided as the addition was finishing. The window trim and gutters also match throughout. Whether you’re standing on the street or sitting by the fire on the patio, the new addition looks as if it has always been part of this home.
Don’t overlook the impact of your landscaping when planning an addition. Investing in complementary perennials, trees, hardscaping, and lighting is worth the time, and can create a stunning showcase for your home. If you need help designing your yard and are looking for a comprehensive landscaping design firm, we recommend the team at Schmechtig Landscapes.

Harmony Basements builds steel frame building envelope systems as part of our basement renovation services. But what is this exactly? A building envelope is also called the building’s shell. So which is it? An envelope or a shell? Neither, but both words serve to describe what it does. It’s an assembly, with some harder components (like a shell) and some softer components (like an envelope).
Building envelopes have 3 main functions, which we will investigate:
Air management
Moisture protection
Structural Integrity
What is a Building Envelope?
The building envelope separates the interior from the exterior. Let’s break down which building components are, and are not parts of building envelope systems.
Interior walls, including partitions and load-bearing interior walls, doors, and openings between interior spaces, floors and ceilings, are NOT part of the building envelope.
All wall assemblies that have contact with the outdoors, and all HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, & Air-Conditioning, ARE parts of the building envelope. Everything that keeps the interior safe from outside weather is part of the building envelope. Plumbing and electrical services are parts of the building envelope where they connect to the HVAC system.
Types of Building Envelope Systems
There are 2 main types of building envelopes: tight and loose.
Tight Building Envelope
A tight building envelope is constructed with the intention of closing any gaps that air can move in or out through. It is still possible to let fresh air in and stale air out through open windows and doors, but when these are closed, very little air moves between indoors and outdoors.
The modern concept of a tight building envelope, with its focus on energy efficiency and controlled ventilation, emerged in the 20th century, particularly after the 1970s energy crisis sparked increased interest in energy efficiency.
Loose Building Envelope
So, every building erected before the 1970s has a loose building envelope? Yes, by modern tight building envelope standards.
If your home is of pre -1970 or early 1970s construction, it most likely has a loose building envelope.
Building Envelope Functions
So now we know what the tight building envelope was intended to do, but it turned out to have additional benefits aside from lowering heating and cooling bills.
Provide climate control: This is the initial function that the modern building envelope design intended. Sealing gaps slows down air movement, and insulation nearly stops it.
Support the structure: The building envelope includes the exterior walls of the structure, so it also needs to support these walls. This makes the foundation a part of the building envelope.
Aesthetics: While the building envelope does not include your interior decor, it does include your home’s exterior finish. Installing a new building envelope on an older home will improve its overall look and value.
What’s Included in Building Envelope Design?
We’ve covered some of the components of a tight building envelope assembly, let’s look a little closer at all of these parts now, and at what each one adds to the whole.
Harmony Basements’ Envelope Building System
A tight building envelope is crucial for your home’s climate control, structural integrity, and energy efficiency. When it fails – whether through slow-developing drafts or sudden issues – the results can be costly and even dangerous.
Having worked in and around the GTA for over 20 years, Harmony Basements understand which products and procedures perform best for basement conditions, and we’re always looking for and testing new technologies for even better solutions. Our success comes from coordinated, in-house teams and careful attention to timing and materials.
We use premium materials throughout our building process: steel framing instead of wood for superior strength, specialised mould-free gypsum board instead of standard drywall, and mould-resistant paint formulated for damp conditions.
We avoid the common pitfalls of rushed construction and poor coordination that can compromise building envelope integrity. Our confidence in our materials and workmanship is backed by a LIFETIME warranty – well beyond the industry’s typical 1-2 years.
Choose Harmony Basements for Your Building Envelope System
So, now you know how superior building envelope services are executed, and when you know, you know.
Harmony Basements provides a free design consultation at your home. We ask the right questions, listen, and propose smart, creative ways to achieve your vision with no commitment required.
After construction, you can expect a building envelope inspection from our quality control coordinator, and a lifetime warranty.

While asbestos is currently banned in Canada, it was a common material in new home construction for several decades. It was used into the 1990s and officially banned by the government in 2016. Lawmakers banned the use of asbestos due to its incredibly harmful impact on our health. Owners of older homes and buildings need to approach renovations with full awareness that asbestos could be present. Shoudl those asbestos fibres be disturbed, you could put yourself and family at risk.
Defining asbestos and understanding the hazards
Asbestos is a natural product made from silicate fibres. The fibrous material has properties like heat and fire resistance and strength, which made it attractive to builders and led to its inclusion in many types of construction products. However, it was eventually found that asbestos has devastating health effects.
The hazards of asbestos
Disrupting any older materials containing asbestos releases the material into the air. It is dangerous to both handle and breathe in asbestos and is considered so due to the long-term and harmful effects it can have on the respiratory system. One of the most notable dangers of asbestos is that it is a carcinogen. Inhaling even the smallest amounts can cause the development of lung cancer or mesothelioma.
Additionally, contact with asbestos can lead to other breathing disorders or lung diseases. For these reasons, homeowners and building owners must have older structures professionally tested before a renovation starts. Professional testing companies will be equipped with proper uniforms, protections, tools, and training to safely test for this hazardous material.
Where can you find asbestos in an older building?
Asbestos was added to numerous building materials before 1990 in Canada and Calgary. It is essential for any homeowner or business owner (especially those planning for even minor renovations) on an older space to note where they could find asbestos in the building. Asbestos can be found in various materials used in almost every part of a home or building. These could include structural components like:
Exterior siding
Foundations
Cement structures
Flooring
Ceiling tiles
Insulation
Roof shingles
Drywall compound
Wall and ceiling texture
Plaster or putty
Heating systems
Testing for asbestos
Asbestos testing companies in Calgary must adhere to professional and legal standards—whether for only testing or testing and removal of asbestos. The company will test the possibly contaminated materials and the air by taking samples and sending those to a qualified laboratory. If asbestos is found, the owner must hire a certified asbestos removal company in Calgary. Some companies offer both services, while others focus on testing for and identifying hazardous materials.
If your home was constructed before 1990, it could contain asbestos. Moreover, older homes and buildings in Calgary could contain lead paint, radon, products, and other silicate products. If you are concerned about any of these or other hazardous building materials, have your home tested before renovating.
When it comes to testing and removing any hazardous material, it is crucial to hire trusted professionals. Asbestos, as mentioned above, is incredibly harmful and a carcinogen that needs to be handled with the utmost care and safety precautions. Our list of the top asbestos companies in Calgary includes those with proper training and licensing credentials, who are committed to safety, and who follow local legislation for testing or removal.

Customer Feedback
Danielle came out and did some asbestos testing for us when we realized our shower had been leaking and we had moldy drywall to tear out. It’s very stressful having to deal with a situation like that, and I was really impressed with the service she provided. Not only did she thoroughly test the area we had to demolish to give us peace of mind that it was safe to tackle, but she also gave us excellent advice about how to handle mold. I truly feel like this company has your best interest at heart and would highly recommend them.

A shower back up created a disgusting mess in the basement! Sewage and black mold everywhere, and on top of it, the drywall contained asbestos!
The Amity Environmental team built a containment around the area to ensure no hazardous asbestos fibers or mold spores escaped into the upstairs before starting their work. Demolition and removal of the offending materials was started to complete mold remediation and asbestos abatement before finally cleaning and sanitizing the walls studs and floors.
Just 4 days were required end to end, and an Air Quality Clearance certificate was provided to prove that the home was again safe.
Safe, friendly, and affordable – Great job Amity Environmental!
