1. Everything in its place.
Intentional design has become a driving force and a kitchen or bathroom without it just doesn’t make the cut with today’s new home buyers. There is a huge demand for a cleaner overall look, therefore it’s important that everything feels like it has its own place and purpose. Items such as built-in trash receptacles to keep the garbage out of sight, countertop USB outlets, walk-in pantries, pull-out drawers for pots and pans in the kitchen and toiletries in the bathroom – organization and storage are top priorities.


2. Contemporary and clean.
Quartz and light granite countertops along with white or light-colored cabinetry in the kitchen have become increasingly desirable. For designs with darker cabinetry, we’ve moved toward color options with gray undertones versus the warmer red tones that were popular in the past.


3. Luxury master bathrooms.
In modern designs, master bathrooms are having a moment, especially in high-end markets. We’ve seen that in larger homes, the master bathroom has increased in size and dual vanities are a must. Homebuyers want luxury details such as larger walk-in showers and oversized standalone soaking tubs versus traditional shower/tub combinations. Additionally, master closets have increased in size and included organizers such as built-in shoe racks have become a hit.


4. Smart home technology.
Today’s homebuyers expect their home to be modern in every way, which is why we include a series of integrated home automation products in every new home we build. We are seeing a big trend where the kitchen is used as a main control hub for these features. We set up an Amazon Echo Show or Dot in this space to allow for easy and hands-free monitoring of the front door, management of indoor air temperature, music, movies and so much more.

5. Heart of the Home.
Larger kitchen islands, with dual kitchen islands in select larger homes, have become a huge hit. The kitchen is still the heart of the home and a large island allows for family and friends to easily gather around together. Open-concept spaces where the kitchen seamlessly transitions into the dining area, Great Room and outdoors also create the perfect home for those who love to entertain.

As the seasons change, daylight saving time comes to an end, which mean everyone finally gets that extra hour of sleep that they look forward to. The time change comes with lifestyle changes as well. From readjusting the kids’ school night sleep schedules to getting home from work after the sun is down, this blog is your guide to making the transition out of daylight saving time as smooth as possible. Here’s a quick tip as things get started to keep in mind during the time change: make the most of your waking hours during the weekends!
Bedtime Needs a Blueprint
While you may need to focus more on your kids getting in bed on time for the time change, don’t forget that you need to give your own body time to adjust. Start adjusting the sleep schedules of everybody in the house (and we mean everybody!) several days before the time change in increments of fifteen minutes each day. It’s easier to convince any little ones to hit the hay before the sun goes down if the whole family is involved, so brush your teeth and change into your jammies a little earlier than usual.
To get ready for your new bedtime, set up an evening ritual that works for you. Dim the lights. Read a book. Play some soothing soft rock from a time when you knew the newest fashions and soak the day away in the tub. A dark, quiet, and cool bedroom makes it easy to fall asleep.
It’s important to make a deal with yourself that you’ll still be getting a full night of sleep every night, even if the days are shorter. While this does mean that you’ll be going to bed earlier than you’re used to, it also means that you’ll be able to get out of bed the following morning and take the day by storm.
Sleep Better Than a Baby
To make sure your kids get in bed and stay in bed until morning, it’s important for them to be active during the day. Limit their screen time, as the blue light from devices can make it more difficult to fall asleep. Encourage them to spend time outside by going out with them! Chase them around your backyard while you get your mind off of work. You’ll remind yourself of what you’re working for, and tucker yourself out in the process too! As an added benefit, spending time in the sun regularly (and safely!) serves as a natural mood booster.
Make sure you haven’t had any meals or snacks for two hours prior to bedtime, and you’ll have a better chance of staying asleep through the night. Eat a meal as soon possible when you get home from work. A family dinner is another chance to catch up on each other’s day, and as a bonus, the whole family will have a better night’s rest.
If you get home from work a little later than you’d like, make mealtime easy with weekend meal prep. Spend some of your Sunday putting together enough main and side portions to build a variety of meals throughout the week to keep your family from getting bored from the same chicken and rice every night.
Regarding your weekend, keep this in mind! It’s your weekend, so spend it how you see fit. Enjoy your Saturday morning watching your child’s soccer game, or teach yourself a new skill. You’ll be sure to have a day full enough to make falling asleep that night easy. For more ways to fill your weekend, be sure to like Lennar on Facebook.
The Connected Home by Lennar not only connects you to the most desirable technology brand devices but can add more convenience to your daily life. Hands-free and voice-active, Amazon’s Alexa lets you play music and send messages, plus can help you achieve a more productive morning. Learn more in this NBC News article by Nicole Spector.
It’s been four years since Amazon launched Alexa, and in that time the cloud-based voice service integrated into the Amazon Echo, among other devices, has become a staple in many homes, with more than 100 million devices sold as of January, according to The Verge.
Most of us who use Alexa know our way around the basics — like for requesting a song to be played or searching the Internet, but there’s a lot more that Alexa can do — or so I hear. I’m new to Alexa and honestly, I don’t really know how to make the most of this so-called virtual personal assistant, and the amount of information online is seemingly endless — and just a bit overwhelming.
What are some simple, practical ways that Alexa can be put to work to make life at home easier for the whole family? We consulted an Amazon spokesperson as well as a number of Alexa users to compile tips to get the most out of this techy sidekick.
“One of the reasons I love waking up with an Alexa alarm is that I no longer have to rely on my phone as my alarm, so I can leave it to charge in the kitchen and get some much-needed no-phone time late at night and first thing when I wake up,” says Katherine Prescott, founder and editor of VoiceBrew, a digital media company focused on the voice space — specifically tips on optimal Alexa usage. “You can set as many alarms as you want (I set one at 6:15 a.m. and another for 15 minutes later so I know it’s actually time to get up), set a music alarm to wake up to your favorite tunes and even snooze by saying ‘Alexa, snooze.’”

Planning a party this summer? When you host a summer party, you’ve got a lot more options. You can use your outdoor space, enjoy the sunlight longer, and fire up the grill. Plan your space, your menu, and your activities around the season—and your guests will enjoy the best summer party in the community.
Outdoors and In
A great outdoor space is like a bonus room. Of course, you (and your guests) will probably be in and out of the house—running for the refrigerator, the restroom, or just cooling off for a minute. Plan for your door opening and closing throughout the party. Set your thermostat a bit higher than you normally would to save your air conditioner from working extra hard—and save on your power bill. Turn it back down once the party is over.
Light Up the Party
The best part of a summer party is the long summer daylight. Stay outside as the day cools down and turns to evening. With summer nights as the coolest time to be outside, you definitely don’t want to head in now! Prepare by hanging some string lights for a classic summer look. Candles or small tea lights can be a great touch, too.
A Perfect Summer Menu
There’s nothing like the smell of a grill in the summer. It’s burger season, after all. But if you’re looking for something lighter, or a vegetarian option, grill portabella mushrooms instead of meat patties. Go even further and try recipes that use seasonal produce. That’s where the best summer flavors come from.
Keeping Bugs Away
A southern summer means bugs. The worst of them—mosquitos—could ruin a great party. But you can plan ahead to counteract the nuisance. Dump any empty flower pots or rain gutters to make sure there is no standing water around your home. Set up fans around your outdoor space. Not only will this keep bugs away, it will bring a cool breeze to your party. Bug repellant candles can also do double duty—adding to your summer party vibe while keeping bugs away.
When you’ve created a beautiful home inside and out, you want to share it with your friends. Summer is the best time for hosting the best party. These tips are a great start for the perfect summer party for your family and friends. Find more ways to make the most of this summer season by liking us on Facebook.
