Airborne X Adventure Park Now Open on the West Bank

Harvey has a new multi-million dollar entertainment complex that has just opened, Friday, February 4, 2022. The 30,000 square-foot amusement center is located at 901 Manhattan Boulevard in Harvey on the West Bank and is called Airborne X Adventure Park.

The new Airborne X is in the building that once housed Bed Bath & Beyond in the Westbank Village Shopping Center. This will be the second Airborne X location as the first location opened in Denham Springs in 2018. Owner Alex Xiao decided to open the trampoline park after seeing the success the Denham Springs location has had.

The entertainment complex has over twenty arcade games, a cafe, and five birthday party suites. It also includes sky riding over the trampoline park, obstacle courses, freestanding climbing structures, a rope course, and a three-level soft play area for the younger kids. It will employ around 80 employees both part-time and full-time.

2022 Kitchen Trends To Use In Your Home

The new year has brought new trends and design ideas for your kitchen. Here are 15 unique ideas to use in your kitchen this year.

Glazed Tile Backsplashes

This is all the rage in 2022 for your kitchen. Glazed tiles are covered with enamel or liquid glass before they are fired in a kiln. This process gives the glazed tile a nice shiny look. These tiles come in all different colors, sizes, shapes and designs. They can be incorporated into any style of home.

Mixture Of Modern And Vintage

This is like a sweet and salty delicacy. A modern farmhouse design has used this platform but this year it has bumped up a bit. Now modern materials, cabinets and appliances are mixed with a couple of large vintage elements. An example would be taking a modern kitchen space and adding a vintage-style kitchen island.

Statement Range Hoods

This trend has been around and is still going strong. Homeowners love a statement range hood because they are sleek and eye-catching. They definitely create a focal point in the kitchen. If you have a range hood, a budget-friendly idea would be to cover the existing hood with inexpensive untreated wood.

Statement Lighting

Kitchen lighting is always a great way to add a designer dynamic touch. Statement lighting is a great way to do this. It adds an artistic element as well as creates an eye-catching look.

Natural Elements

Using natural elements in the kitchen is a big trend this year. Natural elements not only bring the outdoor elements indoors, they also give a calming refreshing feel. These materials include stone, greenery/plants, wood and natural light colors.

Wire Mesh Cabinetry

Glass cabinets have been a nice touch in an upscale kitchen. This year the trend is now wire mesh panels. The wire mesh panels give a nice rustic and vintage feel without giving up a sense of sophistication. Wire mesh panels can be brass, gray or black and can be made out of all types of wire.

Captivating Color Combinations

Color combinations that are well thought out and planned can make a huge impact in the kitchen. This year, black and dark blue combined with white and gold accents are popular. This gives a stunning look because of the balance between light/warm colors and dark colors.

Eye-Catching Statement Marble

A big trend in solid countertops this year is strongly veined marble. It comes in all colors and levels of veining. Marble has always given a space a luxurious and upscale look. To be even more dramatic, designers are taking the marble up making it the backsplash.

Wood Finishes

Just like the natural look, natural wood finishes are back in style. A great way to incorporate this is using a butcher block countertop. Natural wood tones are warm and inviting.

Mixed Wood Finishes

Using a mix of wood finishes and colors is a great option for this year. Thinking outside of the box is the way to go this year. A great example is to mix different colored cabinets such as a mix of brown, black and white cabinets.

The Green Trend Continues

Green is a popular color this year. A great way to do this is using green cabinets in your kitchen. Green is calming and gives a simplistic and subtle look to the kitchen. Using olive green cabinets with white counters is in demand.

Natural Light

Like natural wood and natural elements, natural lighting is always a must. This year this is used in a designer’s tool belt. Natural lighting gives the kitchen an open and bright eye-catching feel.

Tuxedo Kitchens

Last year the trend was all-white and now it is using dark and light. The new trend is called the tuxedo kitchen. This is where two colors are incorporated in a light tone and a dark tone.

Pet-Friendly Accents

Pets are a big part of many homeowners’ lives. Adding pet-friendly accents to the kitchen is a no-brainer for animal lovers. These can include built-in water and food bowls or a built-in pet bed. This not only is a convient idea but is also a great way to save space.

Glass Partitions

A glass partition is an awesome option especially when you have an open living space. A glass partition will help keep noise and odors down from the kitchen and give a nice stylistic element to the kitchen. These can come in many different styles and colors.
