If you’re looking to decorate, renovate, or landscape, the National Home Show is the place to be. Canada’s largest and longest-running home show—58 and holding—is set to open in Toronto this Friday for 10 days packed with workshops, exhibitors, and celebrity appearances.
Home design expert Ty Pennington, host of hit TV show Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, is the show’s spokesperson and will speak on opening day. Other notables include CityLine design specialists, HGTV hosts, and a special interview with former supermodel and entrepreneur Cheryl Tiegs.
The home show, which runs from Feb. 19-28 at the Direct Energy Centre, Exhibition Place, aims to inspire, present new ideas and products, and bring consumers in touch directly with retailers, contractors, and designers. The “everything under one roof” approach of the show allows visitors to research, ask questions, find contractors and even buy products without the extra travel.
One home show feature is the 2010 Dream Home, an eco-friendly innovative home built with modular building techniques.
“By building the house in blocks, we are giving the homeowner the flexibility to change their living spaces at will, thus creating a truly customizable home environment that can grow and shrink to fit the lifestyle of its occupants,” said Brendan Charters of Eurodale Developments, the Dream Home’s builders, in a press release. The house was designed by Richard Librach Architect Inc. and decorated by CityLine designers.
