Designing the interior of your new home can be simultaneously exciting and overwhelming. There is a seemingly endless array of options for colours, surfaces and finishes, but you don’t have an infinite budget. How do you make design decisions that are beautiful, yet practical?
From a financial standpoint, the new year is a fitting time to “get your house in order” and take a big-picture view. Do you have an ambitious idea for the year ahead? Maybe you are saving for a new home or dreaming of an elaborate vacation. Either way, it will require some thoughtful planning.
This fall, we are hosting multiple family-friendly events to proudly introduce you to four of our beautiful communities. We kick off September at SummerWood in Sherwood Park, then continue the festivities in October with Ruisseau in Beaumont, Easton in Spruce Grove, and Sienna in Fort Saskatchewan.
Despite what the back-to-school ads may be imply, summer is not over yet! Set aside your September shopping list and read on for some family-friendly activities to check off your summer bucket list.

If you’re looking for a quieter location that is still within reach of the city, consider one of our three inviting communities to the south of Edmonton. You might be right at home in the charming surroundings of Ruisseau (in Beaumont), the peaceful setting of Meadowview (in Leduc) or the tree-lined landscape of South Ravines and Ravines of Devon.
Life is about balance, and our communities to the west of Edmonton offer the best of both worlds. You’ll enjoy the quieter settings of Spruce Grove and Stony Plain, and still be able to easily access Greater Edmonton when you need it.
