The Finished Product- KB Homes Vineyards at Windermere

Okay, so I love to look at new construction.  It's a weakness of mine.  And I think the most favorite thing about new construction for me is the trending decorative touches.  Professional decorators come in and stage each home with the latest and greatest ideas, colors, furnishings and finishes, with no concern for budgets.  So I thought it would be a neat idea to document it in photos and bring it to YOU.  I will also tell you my observations, along with what I like and what I don't like.  Of course, it's just my opinion, but I see hundreds of homes in a year, so I'm thinking my opinion might be good for something.    ;-)  Enjoy!  OH- and don't forget to look at my page on facebook:  New Construction in Orlando.  Thanks!

 The main entrance at the Vineyards.  It's not gated, but is very attractive.

One of three model homes.  The brick paver drive is standard.  This is a 53'  lot.

This is the master bedroom.  I love this color scheme: Gray, yellows, silvers and blacks.

 This is the loft area and hallway up stairs.  The loft is large and spacious.  Notice the 'stripes' painted on the wall.  This is a new trend I've been seeing.

This particular builder enjoys adding 'niches' around windows.  It fits well in this room, but in some areas it's distracting.  

 This is another secondary room.  Furniture placement in this room is difficult with the odd shaped corner area.  

This is a rear loading garage model.  OH- and I love that you have a mail box at each house in this community.

 This is the rear elevation.

 This model has a formal living and dining room decorated in grays and blues.  I love the different shapes and elements that the decorator used. 

 Round tables are in for dinettes. And dark wood with dark granite are still the norm.

 Okay, new doors and new handles.  Still brushed nickel tones, but the round handle and 3 panel design are different.  

 This is the formal dining room.  Notice the mirror on the wall- it creates an optical illusion by make the room look bigger- almost like it's a doorway. 

 Master bathroom.  All glass enclosures are the new hot thing.  And the oblong glass tile around the tub and shower are new, too.

 Love Love Love this tile in the bathroom, but some of my friends think that it has a commercial look to it.
