Episode 12: Summer Maintenance & Materials — What to Know When You Design to Last
Series Theme: Summer in the Sky – June Week 4

Luxury isn’t just how a space looks—it’s how well it holds up.

In this episode of The Aeroview Lifestyle, Ariel takes you behind the scenes of a real client transformation at a lakeside retreat, and unpacks the smart material choices that made their home as functional as it is beautiful—all summer long.

From warping cabinets and sun-faded furniture to resilient finishes that can handle water, sun, sandy feet, and sticky popsicles, you’ll learn what it really takes to design a low-maintenance home that lasts season after season.

Inside this episode, you’ll discover:

• The best flooring for wet feet, pet claws, and heavy use

• Why Ariel chooses real quartzite over trendy quartz for high-heat, high-sun kitchens

• How to select performance fabrics that don’t feel stiff or scratchy

• The secret to seamless indoor-outdoor design using textures and finishes that flow

• Furniture and finish ideas that work for lake homes, hangar homes, and everyday summer living

Plus, Ariel shares her favorite summer-proof details—from washable slipcovers to waterproof sconces—and leaves you with a journal prompt to reimagine your most high-maintenance space as both durable and dreamy.
