    What It's About

    Today’s homebuyers are more diverse—by age, household composition, lifestyle priorities, and expectations—than ever before. This fast-paced, information-packed program will explore how residential design must evolve to meet the needs of modern consumers, from active empty nesters and multigenerational households to flexible work-from-home lifestyles and experience-driven buyers. Discover which design trends are truly demand-driven versus fleeting, how builders and designers can future-proof products to maintain relevance and absorption, practical takeaways you can apply immediately to current and upcoming communities, and more. If you're designing, planning or building for diverse demographics, you won't want to miss this concise, high-impact conversation!
