Is it Your Time to Sell?CLIENT TESTIMONIAL
As picky buyers, we never felt pressured.We were relieved when Dan sold our house in a downward market. His marketing was exceptional, particularly his website photos, creative write ups, and his social media blasts. After a long closing period, with many conditions, we had just two short weeks until the possession date. Now in a time crunch to buy, Dan showed us over 25 houses. We were so impressed with how fast he always responded to phone calls and texts. As picky buyers, we appreciated his patience and never felt pressured. Dan found us the just the right home, and the best deal.- Colette and Vic, Nanaimo

‘Cabin Porn’ isn’t what you thinkThis is a colour book about something many people dream of — living in a small, simple rural home BETH J. HARPAZ THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
A luscious new book of photos called Cabin Porn isn’t inviting readers to hole up in the
woods to look at naked bodies.It is inviting them to look at
photos about holing up in the woods.
The book is the brainchild of tech entrepreneur Zach Klein, co-founder of Vimeo, who bought some land in upstate New York in 2010 with his wife and friends. They started collecting photos of cabins as “inspiration to guide us and motivate us” to build their own.
Eventually, they built some cabins on the property they call Beaver Brook, and they shared the photo collection in a popular Tumblr blog called Cabin Porn. They also opened a school at Beaver Brook where individuals can learn to timber-frame a building from scratch in a few days.
All of that led to the Cabin Porn book, published by Little Brown, edited by Klein and aptly subtitled, “Inspiration for your quiet place somewhere.”
Ironically, Klein says the title Cabin Porn is “difficult for me to justify” because “it was never a fantasy. My friends and I were out there doing it.”
Cabin Porn isn’t the only sign that cabins are having a moment. The New York Times’ T magazine recently proclaimed in a headline that cabins are the “New American Dream.” Pinter-est is loaded with accounts like “Rustic Cabin Life” and “Cozy Cabins.” Students at Harvard’s Millennial Housing Lab just launched a project called Get-away, which offers tiny houses in rural settings for rent by the night for city dwellers looking for an escape.
Why cabins? Simplicity and immersion in nature
explain much of the appeal.“There’s something really
satisfying about being reminded that life outdoors is really affordable,” Klein said. “You don’t need a McMansion to enjoy the woods.”
But while cabins might be simple structures, the images in Cabin Porn are spectacular and compelling, even when the buildings are little more than ramshackle shelters tacked together from scavenged boards. The rustic settings are beauti-ful, on mountaintops and by the water’s edge, in deserts and the woods. And the dwellings’ designs are intriguing, from converted vehicles and silos to treehouses, pods, sheds and bungalows — along with more conventional wood-frame homes with pitched roofs.
The term “cabin” has a par-ticular American sensibility,
Klein notes, part of the narra-tive of taming the frontier and cutting down trees to build homes and settlements. Log cabins symbolize “resilience and self-reliance,” he said.
But Americana is not really the attraction for him. “What I’m drawn to is creating min-imal comfort outdoors so that I can be as close to nature as pos-sible,” he said.
He also notes that rustic cot-
tages are part of the culture in many places, especially northern Europe. The book’s photos range from a shack in a sheep-herding camp in New Zea-land to a boathouse on a lake in Germany.
Cabin-love is also related to the tiny house move-
ment. “The American dream is exhausting,” Klein said. “Having to live up to this model of large-
ness is really draining. People are drawn to the possibility that we can be happy with a lot less.”
Sarah Barnard, a Los Angel-es-based interior designer who specializes in sustainability and healthy living, has a number of clients who have high-pressure jobs and nice homes in the city, but own cabins for weekend escapes. “In the city, we cannot help but be influenced by fash-ion and our neighbours and
advertising and all these things that impact how we purchase and how we decorate and what our daily lives look like,” she said. “Whereas cabin living allows us . . . a kind of freedom from the confines of those social expectations.”
Those inspired to pursue their own cabin in the woods
might want to know, however, that reality can be more com-plicated than the ideal. Klein admits that the cabins he and his friends built at Beaver Brook “ran into problems,” from mice infestations to family members who couldn’t handle the lack of amenities. They’ve since built a building with plumbing and electricity “that’s weather-tight and rodent-proof, so we could be there all four seasons,” he said. “Now my mom will come to visit.”
Klein’s sojourns in the woods have also left him with Lyme disease, which comes from tick bites and is common in the Northeast and mid-Atlantic. It’s “a reminder,” he said, “that nature isn’t move-in ready. It’s not sterilized. It’s very much a force that has to be reckoned with. It’s humbling.”
It’s also a good reason to have plumbing in your cabin. “We needed to make it easier for showers,” Klein said, “to create proper conditions so people could check for ticks and clean things.”

Earth-friendly autumn tips to keep you busyMETRO CREATIVE
Autumn is upon us, and with the change of seasons comes the fall to-do list that must be completed before the arrival of winter weather.
Many outdoor jobs are best completed before temperatures drop, while others can be tackled indoors to help save energy and prepare for increased time spent inside the home.
Outdoor cleanupAutumn means leaves are
falling from trees and littering landscapes. Cleaning up leaves can be a time-consuming task, but it’s necessary to promote the health of lawns and other plants. Grass that is completely matted down with leaves can become starved for light and moisture, and lawns may even rot when forced to spend winter beneath fallen leaves.
One eco-friendly timesaver is to shred leaves with a mower (a manual mower is preferable) and leave them as topdressing for the lawn. As long as the grass blades can be seen with-in the leaves, the lawn should be fine. Shredded leaves will decompose and add necessary nutrients and organic matter to the soil naturally.
Leaves also can be used in annual flower and vegetable gar-
dens to improve the soil. Mulch made from shredded leaves can be placed on the soil around trees and shrubs. This helps to reduce weed problems and pro-
tects root systems from harsh temperature fluctuations.
Clothing donationsIt’s time to pack away summer
clothing and once again fill clos-ets and drawers with sweaters and jeans. Before packing away your summer wardrobe, conduct an inventory to determine if
there are any items you no long-er use. Donate these items or use them as rags when cleaning.
Keep some short-sleeved shirts accessible so you can layer them under sweatshirts and sweaters. The heat from layering will be trapped against your body and keep you cozier, reducing your reliance on HVAC systems to stay warm.
Home repairsCheck the roof for any missing
shingles. In addition, look for spots where animals or insects may be able to gain entry into your home. Seal these areas and repair any leaks. This will make your home more efficient later on when winter hits its stride.
Remove window air condi-tioners for the winter. If they can’t be removed, seal them with caulking or tape and cover them with an airtight, insulated jacket. If you have forced-air systems, move furniture away from the vents so that air can flow better around the home and keep it comfortable.
Check weatherstripping around windows and doors and make the necessary adjust-ments. Installing additional insulation also can help reduce energy consumption.
A few tips can help home-owners prepare for autumn in eco-friendly ways.
Check weatherstripping around windows and doors and make the necessary adjustments. Installing additional insulation also can help reduce energy consumption.
