KB Home (NYSE: KBH), one of the nation’s largest and most recognized
homebuilders, today announced the grand opening of its brand new KB Home
Design Studio in Orlando, a retail-like showroom where home shoppers can
explore the myriad of bold and extensive design choices,
forward-thinking energy-efficient features and sophisticated home
automation technologies that are now standard and customizable in a new
KB home.
KB Home’s Design Studios provide KB homebuyers the opportunity to see,
feel and arrange choices for flooring, lighting, cabinetry, appliances
and more, enabling them to imagine the various ways they can personalize
their home’s design and functionality to their individual preferences.
Trained design professionals are on hand to personally assist buyers in
making choices.
With an expansive selection of décor details to choose from, and dynamic
interactive features, the new Design Studio will enhance KB Home’s
unique homebuilding experience and make it even more engaging,
convenient and fun for homebuyers. For example, an interactive display
showcases and demonstrates the smart home technologies that KB Home
includes in all of its new homes at no additional cost and customizable
features which can also be integrated into the construction of a KB
home, including central vacuum systems, home security packages and
built-in audio systems.
Home shoppers will appreciate the Design Studio’s innovative and
immersive bath fixture and lighting displays and life-size kitchen
vignettes to help inspire them to create a home that fits their specific
interests, needs and budget. Visitors to KB Home’s new Design Studio
will also be able to learn about the many energy- and water-efficient
features included as standard in all ENERGY STAR® certified KB homes, as
well as explore additional products like motion-sensing kitchen faucets,
recessed LED lighting and more, which can further improve a home’s
efficiency and potentially reduce utility bills.
“Choice is at the heart of KB Home’s unique homebuilding approach, and
we want to give our buyers the best resources available to empower them
to design a new home that is truly their own,” said George Glance,
president of KB Home’s Orlando division. “With our new, upgraded Design
Studio, KB Home customers will have an incredible array of helpful tools
and information at their disposal to make decisions and further enjoy
their KB homebuying experience.”
KB Home is currently open for new home sales at 14 Orlando-area
locations, offering one- and two-story home designs ranging in price
from the low $100,000s to the high $300,000s.
