Acadian Home Builders Home & Lifestyle Show opens March 5

Fast Forward

What you can get for ... $215,000

ONE TO GROW ON

There are few things the dream room of a 5-yearold and 15-year-old girl have in common. Enter Denise Kartsimas of dkDESIGN, the master of designing rooms that work for years.

WORK IT OUT AT HOME

The home gym once meant a hefty dose of equipment. In recent years, many have pared down the multiple machines in lieu of specializing in a few. At Bell’s Fitness Equipment, where the treadmill continues to be the most popular, two other machines are making waves in home fitness.

HOME HEALTH

Perhaps the biggest revolution in fitness has been products like Fitbit — fitness wristbands that can track everything from heart rate to steps per day. Tri-Running in Lafayette carries the Garmin version, and for good reason, says manager and runner Kevin Miller.

THE MODERN LIFE

“This house is very livable and very functional,” Hebert says. It also achieves a warmth some people don’t think you get with a more modern living space. Hebert recoils at the word contemporary thanks to images of the Jetsons and round, plastic pieces. This version of new design has a welcoming air about it.
