Ultimate Lifestylist

Greetings From Orlando! We are hear to work and discover all of the new products and ideas during Design and Construction Week 2017. There is going to be so much to see and do - we are thrilled that we're able to get here early and get a sneak peek at what's going to debut on Tuesday.

Design and Construction is a marriage of The International Builders Show and the Kitchen and Bath Industry Show. It was such a great idea to bring these shows together - we love having everything at one time under the same roof!

My heart is not only in the home, it's in the kitchen. My day starts and ends there, it's that central place that makes my house a home.

Attending Design and Construction Week has become one of my favorite times of the year.  It's the perfect time to discover what's new and to network without professionals in our industry.

We came to Orlando before the show starts to get a view of what happens behind the scenes. The show opens Tuesday, but getting to see how much work is going on before the show opens makes up appreciate it even more.

Follow us on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter to get live views of what makes this show so special.

What an innovative year 2015 turned out to be! Design and building trends shared innovations that we truly have only dreamed about, and 2016 is promising to be even more innovative in what products are offered for sale.

Ultimate Lifestylist® Suzanne Felber was asked to create a Lifestylist List of her top 10 trends in building for Candy'sDirt - read about which were her favorites.

Find out which products will be her favorites in 2016 by following her on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and Pinterest.

I'm amazed and honored at how many new projects and opportunities have come our way recently. Our Lifestylist website is getting lots of positive comments, and our Facebook page continues to be a place that people quote and refer others to.

I've been working on getting organized and came across thie beautiful kitchen that was part of The New American Home in 2011. We were honored to be the Lifestylists of this home, and it was right here where I fell in love with Thermador appliances.

It's great to see that this home hasn't aged a bit - it's as on trend now as it was then.

I love it when great companies work together, and the new home that is debuting in Beaufort, SC is a perfect example of that.

Rob and Lydia Mondavi have started Mondavi Home, and this beautiful showhome in Beaufort, SC is a wonderful example of how liveable the collection is. The Mondavis chose Thermador appliances for this home because the design fit in perfectly with what they were building, and the Thermador wine columns were perfect to keep Rob's wine collection at just the right temperature.

Find more information here about Mondavi Home, Thermador Appliances and how the Ultimate Lifestylist got these two together.
