Interior Design Trends for 2022

Jan 12, 2022
7 min read

The year 2022 will be here before you know it, which means that interior designers are coming up with new ideas for home décor. Consider including one or more of these exciting new styles to keep things fresh. Here are eight interior luxury design trends for 2022. 

1.    Vintage Will Be More Popular than Ever 

Supply chain shortages are still an issue, and many people remain concerned about the environment. These two things will keep vintage a popular trend for 2022. The great thing about vintage is that you’ll end up with one-of-a-kind décor. Shopping vintage is economical and sustainable, and it is also an easy way to personalize your home. 

Sara Hillery, a designer for Next Wave, said, “Homes should celebrate our uniqueness, and furniture choices are an important part of that. An old piece with great patina reflects a love and respect for history and story.” Along with this, you can be confident that none of your friends or neighbors will have the same décor or furniture as you when you go with something vintage. 

2.    Black Accent Pieces 

A popular home trend for 2022 will be black accent pieces and hardware. If you decide to use black, it will give a space a bit of edge and add depth. Select light hues for the main elements, so choose light paint colors and a soft hue for your sofas. Then, bring in black accents, and this design step will give the space great contrast. 

A black table lamp will emphasize an area and bring an interesting visual element to your home. If you want to keep the black additions on the small side, try changing out just the handles on items already in the space. For instance, swap out black handles on television cabinets or sofa tables. 

3.    Patterns and Plenty of Color 

Patterns and color will be trending in luxury homes in 2022. Home design trends usually shift with the economy. If the economy isn’t doing well, homeowners tend to be more conservative with their color choices by selecting shades of gray or brown. When the economy and country are doing well, people are more likely to choose patterns and colors. Even with the pandemic still around in 2022, the economy is looking good, meaning patterns and color will be popular in 2022.

According to design experts, saffron is considered the new black. Rooms with moody hues will also be popular, and many homeowners will be choosing to paint their walls vibrant colors. In 2022, powerful yellows, intense burgundies, bright blues, and hunter greens combined in patterns like plaids or stripes will be trending. These shades give a home a folk-art type of look. 

Small print florals will also be a popular pattern. Think of the Laura Ashley florals that were common several decades ago. Designers are starting to layer different ones on the same furniture item to modernize florals. This type of look will make it easy and possible for you to use a few of your favorite shades. 

4.    Natural Materials 

Design professionals are predicting that natural materials will be a trend in 2022. Using them in living and family rooms will be especially popular. Many of today’s homeowners are looking for a more responsible design approach in their living rooms. When you embrace natural materials, you’ll be adding longevity to your design style. 

To create this style, blend natural wood with stone. This will give your living space a natural ambiance that is peaceful and calming. If you decide to use this type of color palette, you’ll want a sofa that features a natural color as well as floors and walls. Then, bring in wood or stone décor pieces. 

Natural lighting will also be popular. Access to natural daylight as well as outdoor views are elements that will never go out of style as a classic luxury design trend. Since people spend more time at home these days, expansive windows and high ceilings will be trending in 2022. Expansive windows will give your home plenty of natural daylight and better exterior views, which will relieve stress and inspire your creativity. 

5.    Multi-Purpose Spaces 

The pandemic revealed the importance of the home being a haven. Because of this, there is a more significant demand for home versatility that involves turning spaces into an area where different activities or tasks can be done. For instance, kitchens or living rooms that can double as work areas. 

Outdoor areas turning into more living or entertainment space is something else that’s trending. This involves adding full wall glass doors that homeowners can open up to merge a living or family room with an exterior deck or patio. 

6.    Curved Furniture Pieces 

Curved furniture is predicted to be a trend in 2022. Curved furniture is a mid-century design style from the ‘60s and ‘70s. When you add a curved piece to a room, it will give the space a soft ambiance. A curved sofa will slide into a living room corner easily, or you might want to install a curved kitchen island for a modern touch. If you decide to use something curved to make a design statement, go with barrel-back chairs or a side table with curved supports. 

7.    Eco-Friendly Materials 

Sustainable materials will continue to be popular in 2022. When you use energy-efficient products in your home, you’ll decrease your energy costs and reduce your lighting needs. Materials that are recycled, ethically produced, and reclaimed are especially popular with younger generations. By including these types of products in your home, you’ll be making your home easier to resell. It’s also possible to get almost anything made from sustainable materials these days. 

8.    Welcoming Work Spaces 

Since the world has entered a new age that involves hybrid work schedules and remote work, welcoming home offices will be trending in 2022. People are performing more of their work tasks using Zoom, which means they want their home office to be inviting and appealing. Also, homeowners are starting to need more than one workspace so that they have one for each partner or spouse. People need a place where they can work without family disruptions. 

Work from home spaces are often like mini-libraries that include lots of cabinets, paneling, and even a pretty exterior view. Depending on the size of your home, you can install a cozy work nook or turn an entire room into a work-from-home space. To create one that works for you, be sure to select good seating, a comfortable desk chair, and a great desk. Search for a beautiful writing desk that lets you show a bit of your personality. 

If you can place your home office near a window, this is best. The natural light may inspire your work attitude and make it easier to maintain scheduled work hours. After choosing an area for your office, include things that you love in your workspace. Add colors that lift your mood and textures that you find comforting.

Luxurious Holiday Party Ideas

Dec 20, 2021
7 min read

Luxury homes in Las Vegas are perfect for holiday parties. If you’ve decided to host a big, fabulous holiday party, you’ll want to start planning it right away to ensure that you’ll create an unforgettable night for your friends and family. These 11 luxurious holiday party ideas will help you make everything perfect. 

 1.    Draw Attention to Your Home’s Best Features 

If your home’s luxury design includes a gorgeous staircase or an impressive entryway, then add holiday party decorations that draw attention to them. Wind garland through your staircase banister to give it a festive look or add holiday lights to the entryway. Decorate your fireplace mantel with candles, red or green ribbon, and your favorite holiday figurines. 

 2.    Add More Candles and Flowers 

Luxury homes look festive with holiday decorations. With holiday decorations like candles and flowers, feel free to overdo it. When you add an abundance of candles and flowers, you’ll give your holiday party a lush and luxurious feel. A dinner table filled with fresh holiday flowers or an arrangement featuring a collection of candles will look spectacular. 

 3.    Decorate with a Theme 

When you decorate your McDonald Highlands home with a theme, it’s easy to pull everything together. A white Christmas party theme will look modern and elegant. Decorate the interior of your home with white decorations like holiday lights and fake snow. If you want to go all out on the theme, urge your guests to participate by wearing white winter apparel. 

You can even theme the food by keeping everything white. That way, you can avoid serving red wine, which comes with the added benefit of no red wine spills. White-themed food and beverage ideas include white wine, eggnog, and sugar cookies formed into snowflakes or snowmen.

 4.    Send Festive Invitations 

For more prepared planning, send festive invitations to your guests. This will make it easier to purchase the proper amount of food, drinks, and gifts. Keep the design of your invitations simple and elegant to give your guests a sneak peek into what they can expect at your party. 

 5.    Play Holiday Music 

Play holiday music during your party. Hook up a quality stereo system, hire a DJ or bring in a live piano player. Use music to set the mood. If you want to host a relaxed and comfortable party, then choose soft, jazzy holiday tunes to play on the stereo. If you prefer to host a dance party, then go with a DJ, and ask them to play holiday dance music. A live piano player will give your party a tasteful element, which is perfect for holiday parties in luxury homes. 

 6.    Choose the Right Lighting 

Lighting has as much of an impact on your holiday party’s ambiance as music does. Luxury homes in Las Vegas usually feature fireplaces. If you have one in your home, then light a fire in it before the party. You can keep the dining room chandelier turned on overhead but turn off or dim any other overhead lighting that you have in your home. 

To give your party a warm ambiance, make sure that your lighting setup features several different sources. You can add table lamps and floor lamps to the dedicated conversation areas in your home. Also, candles are a great way to bring in mood lighting. Consider including a lighting effect by uplighting your Christmas tree. You can do this with the mantel too. The best lighting for any room with luxury design elements features a combination of accent lights, task lighting, ambient lighting, and floor lamps. 

 7.    Plan a Sit-Down Dinner or a Buffet 

For an upscale holiday party, prepare a sit-down dinner for your guests. However, if you’re planning a big holiday event, then you may not have enough seating available. In this case, offer several different kinds of hors d’oeuvres and serve them to your guests at buffet tables. When you start considering the menu, go with caviar and champagne if you’re planning a fancy party. You can also serve a shrimp cocktail and crème brulée. 

Make sure that the food at your party is high quality and filling. Also, serve food to your guests on proper plates. Don’t use plasticware during a luxury holiday party. Consider hiring a caterer. That way, you can host the party instead of worrying about the food and beverages. 

 8.    Spring for a Full Bar 

The best way to serve beverages at an elegant Christmas party is to spring for a full bar, one that’s stocked with top-shelf alcohol and a variety of mixers. This will give you the opportunity to use the special bar glasses that have been collecting dust in your storage room. If you’re planning a more intimate event, then be sure to purchase one type of: 

 •    Scotch 

 •    Vodka 

 •    Rum 

You should also get a selection of wine and beer as well as a few non-alcoholic beverages for your guests who are the designated drivers. To give your holiday party a special touch, serve a seasonal signature cocktail like an eggnog colada, peppermint white Russian, or mulled wine. 

 9.    Offer Valet Parking 

Consider offering valet service. The last thing that you want is for your elegantly dressed guests to park their cars on the street and then hike to your home. While you could hire your nephew or a teen from the neighborhood to do it, keep in mind that they won’t be insured if there is an accident involving one or more of the cars. Instead, hire a valet company. A professional company will send an expert or two out to park the cars. To keep your guests from feeling like they should tip, offer the valets a bonus to decline them. 

 10.    Plan a Fun Holiday Activity 

 Keep your guests entertained with a fun holiday activity like: 

 •    Donut decorating

 •    Cardmaking 

 •    A talent show

Encourage your guests to tap into their creative juices by decorating holiday donuts. If anyone doesn’t want to participate, ask them to judge. Offer a prize to the winner. 

Purchase card-making supplies and urge your guests to make their own this year. They can do this instead of buying them. They’re sure to have fun personalizing their holiday cards to send to their friends and family. 

Your guests will also love participating in a holiday talent show during your holiday party. You’ll allow them to share their hidden talents. 

 11.    Send Your Guests Home with Party Favors 

Give your luxurious holiday party the perfect finale by sending your guests home with party favors. Choose something that your guests will use, like food. You can also get them a special keepsake such as a Christmas tree ornament or a holiday candle. 

 A Party to Remember 

Your dream home is waiting for you in the McDonald Highlands community. Those who live in the neighborhood enjoy amenities like walking trails, swimming pools, and stunning views. As the owner of a luxury home, you’re sure to love entertaining guests during the holidays. By including holiday party elements like themed decorations, tasty food, and music, you’ll create a memorable evening for your friends and family.

High-End Kitchen Features

Dec 14, 2021
7 min read

Kitchens are experiencing a revitalization since more people are focusing on healthy eating instead of dining out. This is causing homeowners to design extravagant kitchens in their luxury homes in Las Vegas, spaces where they can cook meals at home in style. If you’re ready to update your kitchen, consider including one or more of these 12 high-end kitchen features. 

 1. Stunning Kitchen Cabinets 

Your kitchen cabinets are a main feature of your high-end kitchen design. The cabinets set the tone for the space, and they come in a variety of colors, styles, and materials. Don’t worry about making the right decision when choosing your cabinets. Instead, purchase cabinets that suit your functional needs and are in the style and color you like. 

 2. Luxury Flooring 

Flooring is an important feature in your kitchen. Select a material that will hold up to the excess use that kitchen floors must endure. Luxury flooring options include bamboo, concrete, and hardwood. Choose a floor that complements your kitchen cabinets or vice versa. Also, keep in mind that you may wind up spending long periods of time standing on your kitchen floor while completing food preparation, so you may want to choose a material that will be kinder to your feet and legs. 

 3. A Counter-Depth Refrigerator 

The refrigerator is a kitchen staple since it safely stores your home’s perishable food. These days, there are many different refrigerator styles, shapes, and colors. When it comes to high-end kitchen features, you’ll want a counter-depth fridge. This type of refrigerator won’t take up extra space. Instead, it will give your kitchen a streamlined luxurious look. 

 4. Hidden Trash Containers and Recycling Bins 

Like your kitchen’s refrigerator, you’ll want the trash containers and recycling bins to be tucked out of the way. When you set them next to the kitchen island, you’ll have to move around them. If you leave them out, they may also attract insects and emit unpleasant odors. 

Trash containers and recycling bins can be hidden inside the kitchen cabinets. Kitchen design companies are able to create a drawer to house them, one that blends in with your other kitchen cabinets. 

 5. An Open Design 

When building a custom home in Las Vegas, request an open design. This type of design will give you plenty of space to cook and entertain guests. With an open design, other people can help you in the kitchen. It also gives your home a more expansive feel. 

 6. A Drawer Dishwasher 

A drawer dishwasher is a luxury appliance that is easy to use. You can also use the dishwasher drawers to store clean dishes and give you access to several cleaning drawers. This feature adds to the luxury of the item since you won’t be losing kitchen storage space. You can install drawers in different areas of the kitchen for added convenience. For instance, place one or two near the prep area and a few more by the sink. This setup will make cleaning up fast and easy. 

 7. Refrigerated Drawers 

Refrigerated drawers are another luxury design feature in kitchens. Use these handy drawers to increase the amount of cold food storage that you have available. The best ways to use them include positioning one at a lower height to store soda, juice, and after-school snacks for your kids, reserving a refrigerated drawer for fresh produce, and setting aside another refrigerator drawer for dairy items and condiments. 

You can stack these handy drawers in a cabinet or place them in different sections of the kitchen for more convenience. You can also order these drawers to be positioned in a way that mimics a cabinet or get them with a lighted glass door. 

 8. A Beverage Area 

Luxury homes in Las Vegas often have kitchens with a beverage area. You’ll love the convenience of this feature. Include as many beverages as you want, depending on the amount of space that you have available. Beverage ideas include: 

 •    Soda 

 •    Juices 

 •    Coffee 

 •    Tea 

 •    Power drinks 

 •    Wine or other alcoholic drinks 

Depending on the beverages that you decide to include, you may want to add other appliances to your beverage station. Ideas include: 

 •    An ice maker 

 •    Refrigerator drawers 

 •    A wine refrigerator 

 •    Storage cabinets 

 •    A blender for mixed drinks 

 •    A sink 

 9. Shelves and Racks that Roll Out 

Instead of bending down to search through low cabinets to find Tupperware lids or the baking ingredients that you need, install shelves and racks that roll out. This feature makes finding what you need easier. The great thing about this amenity is that you can customize it based on your needs. For instance, you can order them so that they’re large enough to fit different sized pots and pans or for small appliances. 

Roll-out shelves are available in stainless steel or wood. With these options, you can give your kitchen the look that you want. You can also get sliding shelves that are sized for baskets or other small containers, which will help you keep your kitchen tidy and well organized. 

 10. A Pot Filler 

While it’s a small accessory, you’ll love having a pot filler in your kitchen. It is an item that will give your kitchen a luxurious feel. It is also super handy. A pot filler eliminates the job of moving heavy pots filled with water from the sink to the stove. These plumbing fixtures are installed right over the stove, and there are different styles available so that you can maintain the luxury design of your kitchen. 

 11. Exotic Kitchen Counters

Using an exotic wood for countertops is a must-have feature for today’s luxury kitchens. Instead of marble, choose an exotic wood that contains a pretty wood grain. Recommendations include African mahogany, teak, and zebrawood. African mahogany is a hardwood that has vertical bonds and an alternating ribbon pattern. You can get African mahogany in a light or dark reddish-brown tone. Teak comes in lots of different colors ranging from yellow to an orange-brown shade. Zebrawood is a strong wood, and it features stripes that vary from light brown to black. 

 12. Add a Walk-In Pantry 

If you cook a lot in your kitchen, you’ll appreciate having a walk-in pantry. With this type of food pantry, you’ll have the space that you need to store your food and even a few small appliances. Design one with drawers and built-in cabinets. If you order a large enough pantry, you’ll be able to store your fancy china, crystal, and kitchen towels in it too. 

When designing a walk-in pantry, make space for a refrigerator, a wine cooler, and plenty of shelving. Be sure to include a blend of open shelves and ones with glass doors. If you’re storing appliances in the pantry, you’ll want to make it easy to access them. 

 Building a Custom Home in Las Vegas 

The MacDonald Highlands community features luxury homes, ones with the kind of amenities that make you feel pampered. As a resident, you’ll have access to fitness facilities, restaurants, and a golf course. You can also build your own custom home. By building your dream home, you’ll be able to include the luxury kitchen features that you’ve always wanted.

Best Features For a Luxury Home Office in 2021

Nov 19, 2021

las vegas luxury homes

When building a custom home in Las Vegas, be sure to include features that make a home office luxurious. These days, people are working from home now more than ever. Because of this, you’ll want your home office designed as professionally as possible. Here are the best features for a luxury home office in 2021. 

las vegas luxury homes

 Office Furniture that Makes a Statement 

 Choosing the right office furniture is highly important. To make it luxurious, consider purchasing an executive pair of chairs and a beautiful deck. The combination will give your office an official look. Also, when you go with dark colors like mahogany, gray, brown, or black, your home office will let your clients know that you mean business. 

 Select one or two high-end bookcases. Depending on your design personality, you can purchase industrial-style metal ones or traditional wood bookcases. 

 A great way to give your home office a modern look and save space is to install a SkyFloat, a hanging unit designed to hold your phone or tablet. Since you can decide where to hang it, you’ll be able to position it to give you a flattering angle when you’re on a Zoom call. 

 When decorating your home office, make sure that your selections coordinate well and are visually pleasing in general. While the office décor can be more on the whimsical side, you’ll want your office furniture to appear professional.

 Wall Decorations 

 Invest in quality frames to display your school diplomas, course completion confirmations, and certificates. This will add to your office’s professional appearance. Displaying these documents will also give your clients more confidence when doing business with you. 

 If you have any achievements that you’ve accomplished in your areas of interest, then you might want to display these as well. For instance, if you’ve won a golf competition or created something in the artistic field, then share your trophy or art piece. This will help your clients feel a closer connection to you, which may translate into more business. 

 Be sure to hang a few custom canvas prints—display pieces by your favorite artists to transform your office into a space that will inspire creativity. Custom canvas pieces will also give your home office a personal look, one that might help your clients feel more at ease. 

 Upgraded Light Fixtures 

 Purchase upgraded light fixtures for your home office instead of the standard office lighting. Go with something you might spot in a restaurant, spa, or home, such as chandeliers and pendant lights. You can combine these with wall lights, bookshelf lighting, and a soft desk lamp. Use a few spotlights to highlight one or two pieces of art, but don’t overuse them. If you do, then you’ll risk giving your home office a standard commercial appearance, which is something to avoid in luxury home offices. 

 Use lighting to establish the mood of your office. Separate it into ambient, task, and accent lighting. Be sure to light the space in a way that doesn’t impact your work productivity. Dimmer lights give a room a rich, dark ambiance, but you’ll also want to brighten some areas with several lamps. That way, you can highlight specific focal points like your desk and other furniture. 

 Luxury homes in Las Vegas often feature large windows. If your home office has big windows, then install fewer artificial light sources. When a space has an excess of brilliant illumination, it will give the area too much contrast and glare. Layer your office’s lighting so that you can manage the mood for different situations like one-on-one meetings, solo work, or small gatherings with a few clients.

 A Limited Color Palette 

 It is possible to use too much color in a space. For an office with high luxury design, keep your color palette limited. As you select the colors for your office, go with dark and neutral shades. Then, add a few accent colors. For instance, if you paint the walls a light brown or a soft gray and include several decorative elements or furniture items in more vibrant colors, you’ll give your office personality without winding up with a look that’s overly busy or distracting. 

 The Right Accessories 

 When it comes to your home office, you’ll want to ensure that it has the perfect balance between casual and professional. An easy way to do this is with the right accessories. If you have objects that don’t match or too many knickknacks, it could ruin the ambiance. Because of this, you’ll want to be choosy when purchasing office décor. 

 Add a few stationery objects to give your office a professional look. To show your intellect and interests, bring in elegant pens, a unique clock for your desk, or a rare book collection. 

 Set a few focal points. The best focal points are artwork, furniture, or décor that organically attracts a person’s attention. Focal points pull a room together, and you can use them to display your office’s character in a fast and bold way. Place unusual items in areas that are visible as soon as you enter the room. To make them an even bigger focus, use items that contrast the wall color or position lights to shine on focal point items. 

 There are many different ways to transform your home office into a fantastic workspace. If you want to complete your work in a high-end, luxurious space, plan to spend more to do so. However, you’re sure to find areas where you can budget and still create an office that will encourage you to do your best work. 

 Spaciousness 

 Luxury homes feature home offices that seem large and spacious. If your home office isn’t physically as large as you’d like, then create the effect. Do this by keeping your office as free of clutter as possible. Clean up cups and put office products away. Also, be sure to hide any visible cables dangling to give your office a clean, minimal look. 

 Consider your furniture placement carefully. Try placing it in several ways to give your office the most amount of floor space possible. Paint the walls a light shade to make them look larger without investing time and money in construction. You could hire a professional designer to help you make your home office look more spacious, giving it a greater sense of luxury. 

 Creating luxury office spaces is connected to clever design principles that are visually appealing. When carefully considering your office’s colors, lighting elements, and space management, you’ll create a great, contemporary workspace without breaking the budget.

 Plants 

 Give your home office a balanced feel with plants. They make the space feel warm and are an affordable décor element. Plants come in various sizes, colors, and shapes, so you can use them to enhance your office’s current design. They don’t take up a lot of space, and plants will give you access to nature during your work hours, whether you work during the day or night.

home for sale henderson nv

Henderson luxury homes for sale in the MacDonald Highlands community include numerous luxury features. You’ll appreciate the convenience of living in a home that has the kind of amenities that you typically only enjoy while on vacation. What luxury features are a must for new homes in Las Vegas? Here’s what to look for. 

home for sale henderson nv

 Smart Home Technology 

 One of the most desired luxury features in modern homes is smart home technology. When you own a home with this type of advanced system, you’ll be able to monitor your home using your smartphone. For instance, you can confirm that your doors are locked and change the temperature on the thermostat. Smart home technology even allows you to manage the sprinkler system, hot tub, lights, and appliances. 

 The technology will alert you if motion is detected in or around your home, and you can view the security cameras on your smartphone. Smart home technology offers you peace of mind since you can keep an eye on your house from any location in the world. 

 Indoor/Outdoor Architecture 

 Luxury homes in Las Vegas often feature indoor/outdoor architecture. You’ll love this feature because it expands the size of your living space. It also makes it easy and fun to entertain. When a home includes indoor/outdoor architecture, the main living area will have doors that stretch from the floor to the ceiling. The doors will slide effortlessly into a wall giving you access to a side yard or backyard area. 

 A home with indoor and outdoor elements may include an exterior kitchen with seating, a fire pit, and a water element like a pond or an infinity pool. When shopping for a home for sale in Henderson, NV, keep an eye out for residences that come with sustainable features like permeable paving and plants that are drought resistant. You’ll also want outdoor space that has water-efficient irrigation.

 Spa-Like Primary Bathrooms 

 When you’re in the market for a new luxury home, make sure that the ones you are considering have spa-like primary bathrooms that feature huge walk-in closets and plenty of counter space.

 It’s no longer popular to have shower/tub combinations in the bathroom. Instead, look for attached bathrooms with stand-alone bathtubs or deep soaking tubs installed in a nook that’s separate from the shower area. You’ll also want a bathroom with a spacious shower, one that has a handheld sprayer, body jets, and a rain head fixture.

 Custom Fish Tanks 

 Custom aquariums are a popular luxury design feature. A custom fish tank can give your home’s living spaces balance and harmony. They may also decrease stress, help you sleep better, and reduce anxiety. To make it a true luxury feature, designers are using them as a living room focal point. Aquariums built as a circular structures provide an organic effect to a home. It also adds a beautiful element to a part of a home that would have remained empty and unused such as the middle of a staircase. You might even come across a fish tank placed in the ceiling. This placement will give you a unique and memorable home amenity. 

 Touchless Water Faucets 

 Touchless water faucets are manufactured to include infrared sensors that activate the faucet valve when they detect motion. This luxury feature in new homes decreases the spread of germs and provides you with added convenience. If you’re cooking raw meat like chicken, then you’ll appreciate being able to wash your hands without contaminating the faucet to do so. Touchless water faucets can also reduce water waste since they will remain on for just the time that you’re using them.

 Dedicated Entertainment Spaces 

 Game and movie rooms are almost a requirement of luxury homes. When you move into a luxury home, you’ll love having separate entertainment spaces. This high-end feature will make it easier to keep your home tidy. You’ll also appreciate the separate space when family members or friends wish to play games or watch movies and others who don’t. Game and movie rooms let everyone participate in their preferred entertainment. 

 These days, luxury homes may include indoor basketball courts, well-stocked bars, and zero-gravity swimming pools. When you own a home with these fine amenities, you won’t ever need to leave the comfort of your own home to have a good time. 

 Modern Countertops 

 A few years ago, granite was the most popular material for kitchen and bathroom countertops. Marble was another popular past choice. Today, there is a newly popular material in town, which is quartzite. It is one of the trendiest materials you can install. Regular quartz is also a popular choice due to its color variety, durability, and lack of maintenance. 

 Quartzite is a different material from regular quartz. When you have quartzite in your home, you’ll have a material that is natural stone instead of an engineered product. 

 The benefits of quartzite include its: 

 • Similar appearance to marble 

 • Easy maintenance 

 • Resilience 

 The downside to quartzite is that the color choices are more limited. If you want the material, you’ll have to be okay with a white or gray shade. Also, some quartzite counters require sealing. 

 The benefits of quartz are that it’s: 

 • Nonporous and able to decrease the number of microbes that are present

 • Stain resistant 

 • Affordable 

 • Low maintenance 

 The downside to quartz is that the seams might be a little too noticeable, and it’s not as heat resistant as other materials like concrete or granite. 

 Large Primary Bedrooms

 Large primary bedrooms are a must-have feature for luxury homes in Las Vegas. These bedrooms are elegant, and they offer style and function. Often, large primary bedrooms feature lighted tray ceilings and additional accent lighting to create a cozy ambiance. 

 When you purchase a luxury home with a large primary bedroom, you will likely have enough space for a sofa and even a few chairs to create a personal sitting area. You’ll love having this private space when you need a slight separation from the noise and activities that may be happening in other areas of your home. 

 Some Las Vegas luxury homes feature a morning room within the primary suite. Morning rooms are spaces that have walls of windows positioned on three sides. These rooms usually face the east so that the homeowner enjoys a wonderful view of the morning sun. 

 A Home Gym 

 A top luxury feature of upscale homes is a personal home gym. The great thing about having a home gym is that you can exercise at any time of the day. Your home gym can be the space where you practice yoga, complete weight training, and perform a cardio routine. 

 When you have a home gym, you can invest in your preferred workout equipment, gear like a treadmill, elliptical machine, a rowing machine, and a weight set. With a gym in your home, it will be easier for you to stay healthy and fit.
