			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Everybody would like their new luxury home to be timeless and enduring.</h2>
<p>So what is it about design that makes it look timeless or enduring? In a word it&#8217;s <em>&#8220;Movement&#8221;</em></p>
<p>We could all sit in front of a fire and watch the flames flickering and moving  or we can watch a waterfall and it never gets boring, The reason is the flame and the water are constantly changing both colour and shape and we become captivated by the movement.</p>
<p>Just like the fire or water our homes need movement to be timeless. We can find movement in most natural products like timber and stone both in the colours and textures. When you look at a stone wall or a timber panel the variations in grain and colour as well as surface texture mean that they never look the same and you are always discovering with your eyes. This makes the design more or less enduring as this &#8220;movement&#8221; diverts your attention from the static elements of the design such as large surfaces like walls and ceilings or large areas of the same colour. After a while these colours and surfaces look tired because you get used to them and the only way to breathe life into these is by changing the colours. Even the outside of the home and the backdrop play a part in creating this movement through plants and trees.</p>
<p>Of course you need to get the balance right between the static and the &#8220;moving&#8221; elements and budget plays a large part in this process</p>
<p>So when you are talking to your designers about wanting a timeless home make sure they consider using a combination of static and moving elements both inside and outside the home and you will have a much better chance of achieving the result you are looking for.  Of course it goes without saying that at Signature Custom Homes we apply these basic principles to everything we design and we would love the opportunity to demonstrate our design talents to you.</p>
<p>If you would like to discuss your new home project why not give Craig or myself a call and we will be happy to assist you whatever way we can.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Having trouble finding somewhere to put the kids bikes? Allways tripping over bikes in the garage. We&#8217;ve found the ideal solution for getting your bikes out of the way and its really easy to use and looks great.</strong></p>
<p><strong><a title="Steadyrack" href="http://steadyrack.com"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-867" title="IMG_3347" src="http://signaturehomes.com.au/files/IMG_3347-253x300.jpg" alt="" width="255" height="283" /></a></strong>Designed and engineered in Perth, the Steadyrack bike rack uses a minimal amount of space and is really easy to install.</p>
<p>Its perfect for the majority of standard bikes and wheel sizes, the user simply wheels their bike up to the rack and guides it into position.</p>
<p><strong>No Lifting! </strong>Yes you don&#8217;t need to lift the bike to get it into the rack. We loved this feature. All you do is balance it on the back wheel and push against the rack. The wheel does the work for you.</p>
<p><strong>Saves heaps of space.</strong> The bike is suspended off the floor and the patented swivel action means you can pivot the rack allmost 180 degrees so it rests against the wall. You can put several racks together in a small wall area and overlap the bikes as well. Its still easy to get your bike in and out even when overlapped.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Its the perfect compliment to your beautifull new luxury Signature Custom Home.</p>
<p>We think its great and it gets our seal of approval but don&#8217;t just take our word for it go to the website and check it yourself at <a href="http://www.steadyrack.com">www.steadyrack.com</a></p>
