Think of SmartDesign this way: When getting ready in the morning, do you have to walk from your bathroom into the closet, then back to the bathroom and then into another room for your keys? With SmartDesign, you design a master suite that connects the bathroom to the closet; within the closet you have a key nook. You never have to leave the comfort of that smart little space.
And how about declutterization? If homeowners don't use a space daily, it becomes a trap for clutter. A SmartDesign home ensures those rarely used spaces don't exist.
