What You Will Learn

What’s driving today’s luxury home design—from high-performance kitchens to elevated outdoor spaces? This dynamic session invites attendees into a live conversation about emerging luxury trends across both interior and exterior product categories. Featuring a panel of manufacturer leaders representing top brands (pending participant confirmation), the discussion will explore shifts in homeowner expectations, product innovation, and how luxury is being redefined across categories.

In addition to sharing exciting new trends and market-backed insights, the session is designed to be participatory—attendees will be invited to share field observations, ask questions, and contribute ideas that could help shape future offerings. If panelist participation is not confirmed, the session will proceed as a solo presentation, with the speaker drawing from interviews and trend inputs sourced directly from luxury brand executives.

Learning Objectives:

  • Identify key trends in luxury interior and exterior home design.
  • Understand changing homeowner expectations and product innovations.
  • Contribute insights to help shape future luxury design offerings.
