LETTER FROM
THE DIRECTOR
W
hat do we mean when we say “smart living”? For most of us, it’s not defined by the technology we use, but how it simplifies our lives. And when it comes to reimagining the relationship we have with our homes, it’s all about striking a delicate balance between creating that simplicity and designing a welcoming space to call our own. We invite you to use this smart-themed issue of Home Design Magazine to find that balance in your own home. Whether you have a multi-million dollar waterfront mansion or just purchased your starter house, there is home tech available for every space and lifestyle. We hope this issue inspires you to see the possibilities of technology to not just improve your house, but give you back more time to enjoy it. From health gadgets that help you fit more wellness into your hectic schedule to building a thoughtful system of devices that carries you from morning till evening, there’s no time like the present to embrace the future of home technology.
And as we forge ahead, we can’t help but look back in awe at what we’ve accomplished this year. For over 40 years the Home Design and Remodeling Show has been South Florida’s largest and most trusted destination for everything home design and home improvement. With four shows per year—with two in Miami and two in Fort Lauderdale—and a successful expansion into Palm Beach, a full year of the Home Design magazine, and the recent launch of our Home Design Podcast, we are now your source for the latest products, services, information, and inspiration for your South Florida home projects 365 days per year. Like the smart tech simplifying our lives, we’re on a mission to bring approachability back to home design and home living. We hope you enjoy this issue.

LETTER FROM
THE EDITOR
A
s fall begins, South Floridians enter into a time of year when we genuinely love living here. As heavy afternoon rainstorms give way to slight decreases in temperature, we’re reminded why we’re the envy of the country for our year-round beach weather and cooler evenings that beg for outdoor entertaining and hang time. And with the advent of new technologies that make our home more efficient, smarter, and automate processes that used to be chores on a weekend to-do list, we have more time to cultivate, thrive, and ultimately create aspirational spaces that welcome us home. In this issue, we’ve rounded up a few of the newest apps, software, and hardware that make our everyday lives just a little bit more, dare we say … luxurious? Small pleasures like waking up to a hot cup of coffee or walking into your favorite playlist. Or in my case … apps that keep your raised garden beds hydrated vs. withering into a glorified compost pile, and make homemaking a little less tedious, and a lot more fun.
They push us out of our comfort zone to try something new, while instilling the confidence that we can still do it all. And with a special feature on self-care and wellness, we’re seeing that even though we’re spending more time at home, this time is in fact, better spent. We invite you to browse this issue and be inspired by the ways that our homes are making us happier and giving us back more time to enjoy the things that matter—like that sweet Florida weather. Warm Regards,

DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT
THE LOOK OF LUXURY What does a show stopping champagne-hued living room in Hamptons and the Penthouse of Miami Beach’s Ritz-Carlton have in common? The magic touch of Britto Charette. The award-winning Wynwoodbased studio is responsible for the luxurious interiors of today’s most discerning global clients. But with the rising demand for tech integration and “smart homes,” has timeless luxury lost its luster? Brito Charette’s Principal David Charrete doesn’t seem to think so. Speaking from the forefront of Miami’s greatest interiors, Charette weighs in on his signature style. the meaning of luxury, and the relationship between good design and emerging technology.
The “Britto Charette look” is instantly recognizable. How do you define your signature style? The look has changed—we have a lot of neutrals now in a warmer tone/palette with brass, gold, stone. We use materials that are “luxury quality.” Our response to a project in LA, Aspen, NY will be different because we look at context. But what gives it the Britto Charette look is due to continuity: texture, layering, lighting. We keep elements simple so they don’t compete with each other. We often have one dynamic element that everything pivots around. What has been your biggest source of inspiration this year? I love how technology has made stone pieces much more accessible—from coffee tables to accessories. We’ve been experimenting with stone in our own industrial designs. I’m also inspired by the way it is becoming more acceptable for designers and artists in general to do a variety of things. Anything goes. You aren’t relegated to one way of looking at anything and that’s truly inspiring. How do you balance emerging technology with timeless design? We rely on tech but we make it subservient to the design. We don’t design rooms where the tech is obvious or unsightly. We encourage clients to hide the tech—whether in a headboard or within furniture. And we work with some incredible vendors who help us accomplish this.

HOME DESIGN MAGAZINE / HOMESHOWS.NET
How does virtual staging play into your process of creating a space? We don’t do virtual staging. We do photorealistic renderings and they’re a critical part of our process from the very beginning. They help us to manage our clients’ expectations because they allow us to show an actual product within the layout. This keeps clients from being disappointed in the room/layout/ specification, etc. What are the biggest luxury trends emerging from Miami right now? People want the full floor. That’s luxury. You have a private elevator and you own the entire floor. What does a “smart home” look like to you? Simply put, a “smart home” is one where things that are there when you need them and disappear when you don’t. Most recently, we worked with Premium Digital Control on a Penthouse at the Ritz-Carlton in Sunny Isles. Their team did an extraordinary job with the AV equipment and together we provided a really beautiful and “smart” design for the clients. What’s the most exciting project you’ve created this year so far? Right now I’m working on a PH at the Ritz-Carlton in Miami Beach. The project is absolutely incredible. There is an equal amount of interior and exterior spaces and incredible views of downtown—actually, incredible views of everything. And there are high ceilings which open up so many design possibilities. Our clients are fantastic to work with and we’re loving creating a lot of custom pieces and features for them. What is luxury to you? Luxury is quality in terms of expert design and the life cycle of that design. Certain things, like tech, have a lifespan—there will always be something developing. But a commissioned painting or sculpture, industrial design, or an heirloom piece of jewelry is luxury because of its legacy. Designing something you think will inspire or empower future generations. That’s luxury. To learn more and see Britto Charette’s latest projects, visit www.brittocharette.com

IN THE MIX
WHAT IS A WHISPER LISTING? It’s the secret real estate tactic sweeping Miami’s luxury market. A whisper listing is when a property is listed for sale without (or before) sharing the listing with the general public. Liz Hogan, a leading agent with Compass, explains, “With the velocity of sales and bidding wars becoming common, there is increased demand from buyers to know ahead of time what properties may “secretly” be for sale.” Liz recently sold 4161 Woodridge Road in Coconut Grove for $970k in an offmarket deal and advises realtors to have a great relationship with fellow agents so they will disclose their off-market inventory.
THE SMART HOME SUPERBOWL Every year, Cedia Expo brings together thousands of tech home pros for an explosive four-day event featuring access to new products, breakthrough innovations, and targeted training in home tech integration. 2021 was no exception with the introduction of The Launchpad—a Shark Tank-style program that connects new brands and services with industry veterans, plus a keynote from neuroscientist Dr. Poppy Chum on how smart home integrations leverage human physiology to improve the way we interact with the world. www.cediaexpo.com

HOME IS WHERE THE SMART IS
When you think of what goes into creating a smart home, it’s easy to jump feet first into what kind of gadgets deck out your kitchen or the luxurious way your driveway lights up at the motion of your car. But for all this automation to occur, a thoughtful manual process has to happen first. That’s where ioty comes in. The Miami-based home automation company connects the dots between smart devices and systems to create a seamless experience from start to finish. From the nitty gritty foundations of prewire and A/V to the final touches on a private home theater, ioty’s dedication to creating reliable and easy smart home solutions has made the company a standout in the industry. But how do you design a system that promises longevity when new home tech is being put out on the market every day? For ioty, it all starts in The Lab. “Nothing gets installed in a client’s home unless it’s been through a thorough testing phase in our lab,” explains ioty’s lead developer, Rory Silva. “Stability is very important. If the product requires constant rebooting and service it does not make the list of recommended products.” The self-described “tech-savvy realists” cut through the fancy marketing and parlor tricks of promising smart gadgets by running them through their paces on the workbench. The ioty lab also maintains a full system so the latest firmware, software, and hardware can be put to work in a real-life environment. The criteria is simple: don’t recommend anything you wouldn’t use yourself.
20
HOME DESIGN MAGAZINE / HOMESHOWS.NET
And while their projects vary hugely in scope and design, the refreshing practicality of ioty’s approach extends to every step in the development process. “Finding a balance between cutting edge, performance and reliability is where we specialize,” says Silva, “What good is cutting edge if it isn’t usable and what good is usable if it’s outdated?” Being the first line of defense on so many emerging technologies has given ioty’s team an informed perspective into the future of smart homes. With touch screens and keypads making up 99% of installations, they can surmise that app-controlled systems aren’t going away anytime soon—unless hologram technology surprises us with major advances. Even then, the real goal is to interact with the technology in our homes less and less while it handles the tasks that are required to provide the experience we want. “There is a difference between what we think we need and what we really need and use in our homes,” says Silva, “We’ve been in this business long enough to know the difference.” For more information, visit www.iotypro.com
Getting Started with Home Automation What questions should you ask yourself when deciding which parts of your home need automation? The most important questions come down to your lifestyle and the experience you are looking for. Some of the questions we like to ask our clients are: Which is the most commonly used room in the house? Would you like your technology hidden or visible? Are there any rooms that need more privacy than others? How many people in your household stream movies and music? In which rooms?
What is a simple home automation routine for beginners? Depending on the system you use, routines are relatively simple to set. Set your desired setting, give it a name, and save it as a scene. Then, at a future date, you can recall the same exact scene with the push of a button. The most common routines are “Good morning, good night, welcome home, and party time.”
Is there such a thing as too much automation? Absolutely! In our minds, we can come up with dozens and dozens of different scenes but in real-world usage, most people end up with much fewer, but more helpful and lifestyle-fitting scenes. When thought out and set up properly, you can spend time enjoying your home with a small amount of input to achieve the technology settings that are required.

REAL ESTATE
THE TOOLS OF THE TRADE
It’s no secret that the housing market in South Florida is soaring. Serving 130 miles of coastline, Broward, Palm Beaches & St. Lucie Realtors® has developed an impressive suite of MLS Beaches products that has revolutionized the way agents interact with their clients. Senior Vice President of MLS and Data Integrations, Greg Manship, shares his take on the newest updates to their software and the way technology is rapidly changing the real estate industry as we know it.

HOME DESIGN MAGAZINE / HOMESHOWS.NET
“MLS must stay on top of technology and provide their members the best tools so they can do things for their clients such as accurately price a home for a seller or help find the right home for their buyers.” Walk us through MLS Beaches’ new client-agent journey MLS software is evolving to help agents and brokers give their clients a better home-buying and selling experience. These changes in MLS software are helping to create ecosystems that keep agents and their clients better connected and give the ability for agents to know what properties their clients are looking at, what they like, what they dislike, and provide better data such as street views, neighborhood demographics, and points of interest. In addition, more of our software is moving to a responsive design where agents and clients can access the information from any type of device whether it’s a computer, tablet or phone.
touch in the biggest investment of your life.
What brought about the need for new updates to the MLS software? MLS must stay on top of technology and provide their members the best tools so they can do things for their clients such as accurately price a home for a seller or help find the right home for their buyers. The MLS must have the capabilities to update their technology regularly to give agents and their clients not only a great user experience, but also access to best and most timely data in the industry.
What are the emerging trends among ultra-luxury buyers? I’m seeing a renewed focus on enjoying treasured moments with friends and family. Buyers are also putting more value on the ultimate luxury: privacy. And that’s where high-rise residences, waterfront, and equestrian properties are thriving more than ever. People are choosing properties that offer amenities they find in the world’s top hotels, as well as smart home tech, green living, and the latest design trends.
What’s your favorite feature in the MLS update? One of the best features of this software is the ability for an agent to text their client the mobile app and their client will have an agent branded version of the app on their phones so they can find the homes they are looking for and keep their agent in the loop. Agents know what their clients like and dislike and are able to communicate back and forth very easily.
What other exciting tech products give your agents an advantage in the market? MLS Beaches provides top-of-the-line products and services for their members backed up with product promotion, training, and support. Along with our three top-notch MLS platforms, they offer many top-notch ancillary products to help Brokers and agents excel in their day-to-day duties. These products include Comparative Marketing Analysis programs to properly price and analyze homes, tax programs that consolidate many layers of data, and state-of-the-art programs to help agents and their clients with new construction homes.
How has technology changed the real estate industry as we know it today? Overall it has changed everything about real estate. Agents used to provide most of the information about buying and selling homes. Now they are working with clients to sort through the information and educate the consumer using the best tools available. Tools that can actually price homes correctly and use data in the right way to help buyers find the right home that meets their needs. Agents are vital to the real estate transaction as there is still a huge demand for human
What new real estate technology trends excite you? I love the work our industry is doing to invest in helping consumers find homes by integrating data from different databases into a presentable format. It is no longer about just looking for the number of bedrooms and square footage. It is now helping consumers find homes based on what fits their lifestyle. With advancements in mapping and photography including 3D modeling, virtual tours, and mapping layers that include things such as flood zones, we are able to give visibility not only to a home, but everything around it and the hidden dangers as well.
All in all, we have a great suite of products that help our members succeed in their careers. For more information on MLS Beaches’ full technological suite, visit: www.rworld.com/ beachesmls.

ROBOTS
ARE TAKING OVER From C-3PO to the Jetsons family’s maid, Rosie, the domestic robots from our favorite sci-fi movies and TV shows have always seemed lightyears away from reality. But that may no longer be the case. From compact household helpers to AI-powered companions, the rise of home robots is here. Here are a few of our favorites.
HIGH-TECH HELPERS
Budgee by 5 Elements Robotics From the grocery store to the airport, who isn’t in need of an extra pair of hands? The 42-inch-tall Budgee is your new personal assistant. Using sonar sensors, the hardworking robot can follow you everywhere and carry up to 50 lbs. He’s also quite the conversationalist, using music and customizable messages to greet you and alert you of his status. www.5elementsrobotics.com
Ubtech Lynx Transform your Amazon Alexa into a friendly humanoid robot with Lynx. Using voice-activation and facial recognition technology. Lynx can play your favorite music, make to-do lists, and even surveillance your house. You can also enter Avatar Mode to see, hear, and speak through Lynx when you’re not at home. Who knows? Your family might just get their chores done if they’re being reminded by an adorable robot. ubtrobot.com
Rockubot While most cleaning robots focus on vacuuming, the ROCKUBOT is a sterilization powerhouse when it comes to beds, mattresses, and everything in between. This compact robot does all the dirty work, killing 99.9 percent of bacteria, germs, and mites using ultrasonic waves. Let ROCKUBOT do its thing or use Handheld Mode to easily sanitize electronics, too. www.rockubot.com

HOME DESIGN MAGAZINE / HOMESHOWS.NET
MY TEACHER, THE ROBOT
aibo Two words: Robot. Dog. While many attempts have been made to perfect a robotic version of man’s best friend, aibo’s blue eyes, lifelike expressions, and dynamic movements make him a clear winner. Using AI, aibo will learn to run to the sound of your voice, perform a variety of tricks on command, and even return to his charging station when he’s tired. www.us.aibo.com
Wigl Music + STEM education? Meet the robot who teaches both. Wigl was created to inspire kids to get into robotics and engineering at a young age. The little bug-looking robot dances based on the musical notes it hears. Your kids will learn the connection between their actions and the robot’s when they can make it “wigl” as they play a song or sing to it. www.wiglbot.com
Bocco Emo Teaching kids tech literacy while keeping them safe is difficult in a world full of smartphones. BOCCO simplifies talk and text between young children and their parents. Connect your phone to BOCCO to send a text to your kids when you’re not around. Kids can talk to the robot, which will send you back a text with their message, making it the perfect stepping stone before they’re old enough for a smartphone. It doesn’t hurt that it’s super cute, too. www.ux-xu.com
IS THE WORLD READY? While some people have a healthy fear of robot domination, it doesn’t look like their popularity is slowing down any time soon. A recent study by ABI Research predicts that nearly 79 million homes around the world will have a robot in the house by 2024.

LET’S GET TECHNOLOGICAL Everyone knows wellness comes from the inside out, but a little external motivation never hurts—especially when it comes from gadgets that look as good as these. From tracking your fitness to tracking your progress, level up your health with these wellness tech products.
Mirror Mirror mirror on the wall, who’s the fittest one of all? It’s you … a few months after using this nearly invisible home gym. With over 50 genres of workout for every fitness level, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a class membership with this much variety. Join live classes daily or choose from an extensive on-demand library. Your hard work will literally be reflecting back at you. www.mirror.com
Peloton No list of home exercise equipment would be complete without mentioning Peloton. Most known for their original stationary bike with a dynamic variety of cardio and strength training sessions, we say it lives up to its much-hyped reputation. Choose from their continually growing library of workouts or get personal shoutouts from the instructors when you join live weekly classes. www.onepeloton.com
Headspace Everyone knows the benefits of daily meditation but actually making it a regular practice is a whole different story.

Nordic Track At a glance, this crisp 61.5’’ oversized mirror makes for a stunning statement piece in any room, but the true beauty of NordicTrack’s Vault is what’s on the inside. Using reflective technology, the Vault tracks your movement and gives visual feedback on your form for a perfect workout every time. www.nordictrack.com/vault
Withings Smart Scale Your health is so much more than just your weight, so when you want to take control of your fitness goals, you need a full picture of your progress. The Withings Smart Scale calculates your muscle mass, fat mass, bone mass, and more, to create easy-to-understand insights in the connected Health Mate app, so you make changes based on science rather than guesswork. www.withings.com
Fitbit The original fitness tracker has come a long way from just counting your steps. Fitbit’s latest evolution includes a built-in GPS to track pace and distance, plus 24/7 heart rate tracking so you know just how hard to push yourself. Use it in tandem with Fitbit’s intuitive fitness app for track your sleep patterns and activity levels over time. www.fitbit.com A HOME DESIGN AND REMODELING SHOW PUBLICATION

CLOSING THOUGHT
“It’s not about the belongings, but more about that sense of belonging.” Mari Juiliette
WHAT MAKES A HOUSE A HOME? Where you live and what kind of person you are really tells you where you should be. It’s not about the belongings, but more about that sense of belonging. The houses I show to my clients are more than just remarkable spaces. I look for places that serve as a reflection of that person’s inner world—their goals, where they see themselves in 10 years, and the activities that make up their day-to-day lives. A house is an investment, not just financially, but physically and emotionally as well. So more than asking how many bedrooms they want or what neighborhood they want to live in, I work with my clients to make sure they get a return on their investment.

Being a South Florida native, selling that luxury waterfront lifestyle comes naturally to me and people from all over gravitate towards the quality of life we offer, but it’s so much more than that. It’s creating a place of belonging in a location you love and doing it with a long-term goal in mind. When your ideal space aligns with a sustainable lifestyle you’re happy to maintain, that’s when a house becomes a home. Mari Juiliette is a South Florida real estate agent, property management CEO, and broker, specializing in luxury primary and investment properties.
