Featured One Bedroom Floor Plan: 1-F

by Daniel Moss

If you’re looking for a unique floor plan that maximizes functional space, look no further than the 1-F Floor Plan! This layout is a refreshing departure from the standard modern “square shaped” layouts that you see in a lot of new apartment communities. While the layout has some personality, it does not come at the expense of functional space. Join us as we explore the uniqueness of this layout, and read on about why the 1-F floor plan might be your perfect apartment home.

Anything But Standard

One of the standout features of this one bedroom apartment is the unique shape of the layout. A departure from the traditional square shape, this floor plan features a wide angled wall in the living space, giving an incredible feeling of openness in the relatively modest 645 square feet. A corner-set kitchen still offers the functionality and counter space that comes standard in all of our apartments, but gives a different aesthetic. Whether you’re the consummate entertainer who hosts dinner parties, or someone who likes to spread out when working from home, the added width of the space leaves plenty of space for a dining table.

Customizability

With a unique layout comes unique options for furniture and décor. The wide angle wall in the living room is the perfect gallery wall if you’re looking to feature your pictures or art pieces. If cozy is your goal and you want a one bedroom apartment that will still accommodate an oversized sofa, then this is the floor plan for you. The open design also provides an airiness that makes it feel much larger than the actual 645 square feet.

Storage

As with all of our apartments at Crest, the storage is exceptional. If you love to cook and want to store your kitchen appliances and cookware, you’ll love the kitchen storage. If you’re a lover of clothes and need space to store an extensive wardrobe, the walk in closet is sure to have you covered. No matter what your needs, the thoughtful design of each of our apartments has you covered.

5 Design Tips for Space-Efficient Apartment Living

by Daniel Moss

When you choose an apartment with a smaller floorplan, leveraging every inch of space is key. Luckily there are tons of tricks designers use to get the most out of any room. Maximize your apartment’s space, whether small or large, with these tips for comfortable living in any floor plan.

Utilize Vertical Storage

vertical-shelf

Vertical storage, like shelves, can hold cookware, small appliances, books, and decorative items without taking up precious floor space. In the kitchen, hang pots and pans on a pot rack, and in the living area, use the shelves to display art pieces or family photos. You can find a ton of different options for your apartment directly on Amazon.

Invest in Multi-Functional Furniture

Invest in multi-functional furniture–it can work wonders. Choose a dining table with collapsible sides or extension leaves that you can tuck away when not in use. Look for a sofa bed or a sleeper sofa that can serve as a comfortable seating area during the day and a cozy bed for guests at night. Try a coffee table with storage underneath or nesting tables that you can stack together, as they are also excellent space-saving choices. Many of our floor plans at Crest come with multifunctional islands in the kitchens which go a long way for added storage, check out what we have available here.

Create Visual Separation

Create visual separation between the kitchen and living area to give the illusion of multiple spaces. Use area rugs to define each space and add texture and warmth. Position furniture strategically to act as a natural divider, such as placing a bookshelf or a low console table between the kitchen and living room. Utilize different lighting styles, like pendant lights for the kitchen and floor lamps for the living area, to visually distinguish the two spaces.

Harness the Power of Freestanding Storage

If you can’t install cabinets or open shelving, consider incorporating freestanding storage solutions in your kitchen. Freestanding carts with shelves and drawers can provide additional storage for your cookware and utensils. These versatile pieces can be easily moved around, making them perfect for small kitchens where space optimization is essential. Additionally, you can use standalone bookshelves or storage bins in the living area for items like books, décor, and entertainment devices. This brings both functionality and style to your space. Choose freestanding storage options that complement your overall design theme and provide an organized and clutter-free environment.

Use Mirrors to Create Illusion

Mirrors are a powerful tool for creating an illusion of more space. Place a large mirror on a wall in the living area to reflect natural light and make the room feel larger. In an open plan living and kitchen space, try angling the mirror toward the kitchen, which not only adds a stylish touch but also makes the area seem more expansive. Additionally, mirrors can make the apartment feel brighter and more inviting.

Whether you choose to live in one of Crest’s studio, one, or two-bedroom apartments, these tips will help you make the most of the space! Designing an efficient apartment kitchen and living space without removing walls or installing cabinets requires creative thinking and resourcefulness. Transform your apartment into a beautiful, practical, and inviting home with vertical storage, multi-functional furniture, visual separation, freestanding storage, and strategically placed mirrors.

Embrace these tips for maximizing your space, ensuring comfort and style for years to come, regardless of its size. Happy decorating!

Your Best Day In The Life at Crest

by Daniel Moss

As a resident at Crest, my days are filled with convenience, comfort, and excitement. From the moment I wake up to the moment I go to bed, there’s always something to do.

Crest In The Morning

My mornings usually start off with a cup of coffee from the Starbucks located right across the street. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee is enough to get me out of bed. Knowing that I don’t have to go far to get my caffeine fix is a game-changer. As an added bonus, it gives me an opportunity to walk Carl, my adorable pup!

fitness-center

After fueling up with coffee, I head to our fitness center to get in a quick workout. It’s so convenient to have a gym right in our building, and I love being able to work out on my own schedule. The equipment is top-of-the-line, and I especially love that the gym is two levels.

Once I’m done with my workout, it’s time to head to work. Luckily, Crest is just a short drive from my office, so I don’t have to worry about a long commute. But, on days when I don’t feel like driving, I can always take advantage of the convenient public transportation options available in the neighborhood (The 92 bus gets me there quickly!). For those days where I’m teleworking, I love mixing it up by working in the resident lounge or even the conference room.

Crest After Work

lidl-grocery-store

When the workday is over, it’s time to run some errands. Fortunately, I won’t have to go far. First, I go get my haircut at Like That Barbershop, which is immediately located in Skyland Town Center. After, I typically head across the street to Lidl to stock up on groceries as well as check out the fun variety of international food items they have. You really cannot beat the prices! However, after a long day of work, the last thing I feel like doing is cooking a meal. Luckily, I can head to one of the many restaurants located essentially within the community. I’m very into Mezeh lately because of their fresh ingredients and healthier options, and I’m trying to look my best for the pool this summer.

Once I’ve devoured my Mezeh bowl, it’s time to take Carl to the dog park for some fetch. Fortunately, there’s a great dog run within the community that Carl absolutely loves, and watching him play with the other dogs is one of my favorite things to do. As a side note: Carl doesn’t have to pay a monthly pet rent, so he can finally take a break from all of his casting calls to be the next Purina dog.

On nights when I want to stay close to home, there’s plenty to do. In the warm seasons, I love unwinding by our pool. I also love attending our resident events as they’re always an opportunity to connect with neighbors and make new friends.

Overall, living at Crest at Skyland Town Center is the perfect mix of convenience, comfort, and excitement. With top-of-the-line amenities, a vibrant neighborhood, and a strong sense of community, there’s truly nowhere else I’d rather call home.

Not only does this layout have pleasing proportionality with respect to space, it also features some great extras. Two prime examples are the side-by-side full-size washer/dryer and laundry closet with a folding table and expansive windows offering abundant natural light in the main living area.

Building Home in your Apartment

by Mike

Living at Crest at Skyland Apartments is an unbelievable experience! One of our favorite parts about apartment living in our community is our residents’ ability to add a piece of themselves to their space easily. Our apartment homes are big enough to spread out yet intimate enough to build a sense of home. We understand that making an apartment feel like home looks different for everyone. To help inspire some creative thought, we curated a list of ways to make your apartment identify with your likes and passions in life. 

As you get ready to move into your new apartment home at Crest, keep these tips in mind as you think about how you want to design your apartment space. 

We can’t wait to welcome you as our neighbor! 

Art/Pictures 

Adding pictures of family/friends is one of the easiest ways to make your apartment feel like home! Bring the memories and experiences from your past right into your apartment space. Some fun ways to express your imagery in your apartment might include: 

Photo Collage: Gather and print some of your favorite photo memories over the years, put them on a board, and then frame it so that you can easily display your collage wherever it feels right in your apartment. 

Photo Table: If you already own or plan to own a glass table for your living area, an excellent way to customize your table in a memorable way is to display some of your favorite photos underneath the table to create a mosaic-style finish to your table. This design method is a perfect way to add a personal flavor to your living area!

Bonus: The living room areas at Crest Apartments are very inclusive, so your photo mosaic will be easy for friends and family to engage with when they visit! 

Canvas: Another fun way that you can express yourself through imagery is to get a sizeable picture canvas created. Canvas immediately add an extensive display of personality to your apartment. Choose a photo in your gallery that represents the atmosphere you would like to create in your apartment home! 

A Pop of Color 

There’s no better way to display your personality in your apartment than having some pops of your favorite color! Color in your apartment can be expressed in a number of fun ways. Some of our favorite ways include:

Colorful Pillows: The cool thing about pops of color is that they can be very subtle yet impactful. Add some flavor to your living area by incorporating some bold colors to your pillows. You won’t regret the light that they will bring to the space!

Bright Curtains: A pop of color can also be accomplished from the window areas. Curtains are an excellent opportunity to show beautiful vibrate colors in your living room space as well as your bedroom space. 

Lamp: Lamps add light, but you can also utilize them as design tools! There are many color and design options when it comes to the kind of lamp you can choose to grace your apartment home. Get creative! 

Balcony Design 

Balconies are a great way to express yourself from the outside! When you think about designing your outdoor space, you want to be sure to think about the mood you wish to have every time you set outside. 

Some ways you can add a cool aesthetic to your outdoor space include:

Lights, Lights, & More Lights: Adding lighting to your balcony can immediately turn your outdoor space into a calming place. The magic that lights add to your patio in the evening is unmatched!

Add a Rug/Turf: Another terrific way to create a welcoming outdoor atmosphere is to place something soft for you and your guests to walk on while outside. Artificial turf is a great way to add some greenery to your space while also making your balcony a softer area. 

Furniture, of course: Our balconies come in all different shapes and sizes. A perfect way to make your outdoor space feel more like home is to add places for you to sit down and relax. Depending on how big your balcony is, this could be a couch or a couple of chairs. Remember, relationships fostered outdoors create unbreakable bonds. 

**Make sure the furniture is rated for outdoor use**

Plants: For all plant parents out there, your balcony is a great place to exercise your green thumb while adding a lovely aesthetic to your outdoor space. With so many plant options, there’s nothing wrong with being intentional about how you want to represent what home means to you through beautiful greenery! Express yourself! 

Last note: Remember, balconies are not storage areas! They are not a great place to store bikes or clutter.

Scents/Candles 

We all know that the sense of smell automatically takes us back in time to some of our favorite memories. By adding particular scents and smells to your apartment space, you’re effectively bringing all of those incredible experiences and memories into your apartment home. Some easy places you can begin is:

Candles: Candles are universal! We all know of a candle that reminds us of a person, place, or memory.

Incense: Like candles, incense have a way of bringing back fond memories of the people we love.

Cooking: While temporary, whipping together a family recipe is a great way to bring those delicious smells of a past family dinner right into your apartment home. The more recipes you have, the more the feeling of home will be embedded into your space. 

As we said before, being truly home looks different for everyone. But with these tips, you can begin to be inspired about the ways you can add a personal touch to your apartment space.

Crest Summer Moving Tips

by Mike

We are already welcoming our first residents at Crest apartments and we cannot wait for you to be our next neighbor! At Crest, we believe that when you decide to live with us, you are truly home. Now that everything has been signed, all that is left to do is to prepare to move! 

Below are some things to think about as you prepare for your moving day!

The Week/Day Before the Big Move:

Check in with the Crest leasing office to ensure you’ve got the correct move-in date and time.

Crest contact number: (833) 799-1459

Be sure you’ve booked the elevator and moving dock at the building you’re moving out of so there are no delays or mishaps on moving day.

Confirm pick-up time with your movers and make sure they’ve got all the details, such as what floor you’re moving out of and into and how they can be reached the day of as well as the best directions to the loading dock– this will be very different than the address front door (especially in cities with one-way streets.) You are likely paying for movers by the hour, so you don’t want any time wasted looking for the correct location 

Pro Tip: Ask the leasing office for a building map and mark the exact location for your movers.

Read the fine print on your contract with the moving company. If you have hired movers, make sure you fully understand and accept all of their policies and terms to avoid disappointment and frustration later.

Pack an overnight bag with items such as snacks, water, toothbrushes, shampoo, toilet paper, paper towels, a change of clothes, electronics chargers, and scissors to get you through the first night without having to tear through boxes in your fatigued state.

Before you unplug the TV, take a photo of the back, so you know where every wire goes when you plug it back in.

Easily pack the clothes on hangers by collecting clothes in trash bags, hangers sticking out of the top.  Hang in your new closet and pull the bag off, then put it to good use, collecting move-in waste.

Take a photo or record a video walk-through of the apartment you are moving out of to ensure the return of your security deposit reflects the condition you left it in.

Make sure you’ve arranged for a caregiver for pets for the day of the move; this is for your sanity as much as it is for theirs.

The Day Of the Big Move:

Wake up bright and early and treat yourself to a well-balanced breakfast and coffee. This one may not sound fun but you’ll thank us by mid-afternoon.

Check the weather. It’s summertime, which means you want to stay hydrated and bring a change of clothes with you for after you’re done moving.

Fully charge your cell phone and make sure you’ve got all of the important phone numbers on hand for the day: movers, landlord, leasing agents, etc.

Scour the web for close-by restaurants where you can order a quick lunch and dinner without losing much time or energy during the move.

Leave a broom, paper towels, and all-purpose cleaner at your old apartment so you can do a final sweep when the last boxes are out.

Try to stay on schedule – we’re thrilled to welcome so many residents in our, but this means we all need to respect each other’s time. So please be courteous about the time slot you’ve been assigned and alert your leasing agent or move-in coordinator as soon as you know you might have fallen behind or ahead of schedule. Save your used boxes (and your tired feet) – once you’ve collected ten used and broken down boxes in your new apartment, let us know! We will gladly collect them from your apartment and recycle the boxes for you.
