Toxic black mold can cause some pretty serious health problems, particularly for anyone with allergies or pre-existing respiratory issues. Buying a Home on the Eve of Destruction: How to Live Comfortably in the AftermathIf you anticipate the Rapture being the most likely, then you won't really need to worry about how your house meets your needs AFTER the event—or will you? If you suspect that you would in fact be left behind, then you'll need to decide if it's likely that society would fall in the aftermath before you invest in reinforcing your living space.

If you have children or pets, keep in mind that some plants are quite toxic and may be better avoided.

The Return to Decorating With Wall PaperAs with so many other trends in home styles and decorating, wallpaper has ridden the rising and falling waves of popularity over the years. However, in recent years wallpaper has come back into style with some rich new designs and textures. Whether making your new home unique, or prepping your house for sale, wallpapering can provide great visual interest. Incorporating Universal Design Into Your HomeAs our population ages, it becomes more vital to take different levels of ability into account when building or renovating our homes. By incorporating universal design elements into a new home or renovation project you can not only increase your number of potential buyers if you sell your home later on, but it will make your home more accessible to you if you find yourself having mobility problems later in life.
