Organizing Expert Offers Free Advice on Taming Clutter at Home During Free Workshop at Beazer Homes' Design Studio in Las Vegas

Posted on: Tuesday, 21 July 2009, 12:00 CDT

LAS VEGAS, July 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Beazer Homes USA, Inc., one of the country's top 10 homebuilders, is bringing its SMARTDESIGN((R)) home organization tour featuring nationally-acclaimed organizing expert Monica Ricci to Las Vegas. An author and frequent guest on HGTV's "Mission Organization," Ricci will host a free home organization workshop, Tuesday, August 4, from 4pm to 6pm, at Beazer Homes' Design Studio, located at 9121 W. Russell, Suite 200, in Las Vegas.

Well-known for her upbeat and inspirational advice for de-cluttering living spaces, Ricci will share home organizing tips with real estate professionals and prospective homebuyers as part of a multi-city tour showcasing Beazer's SMARTDESIGN storage and organization features.

"Today's buyers want their home to make their lives simpler," said Ricci, who was named one of the nation's organizing elite by Forbes Magazine. "Concealing clutter inside storage spaces isn't fooling anyone. No matter how large your home and closets actually are, when they're nearly full, it gives the impression that the house and storage is too small."

A little over two years ago, Beazer's planning and design team began tapping her expertise to add space-saving storage and organizational elements to its homes nationwide. The unique collaboration has resulted in the introduction of more than a dozen optional features, including enhanced kitchen storage, built-in closet systems, home office workstations and garage storage units, available through Beazer's design studios.

"Our storage and organization features are an example of Beazer's ongoing effort to design homes that work for today's lifestyles," said Kent Lay, president of Beazer Homes' Las Vegas Division. "By increasing storage and adding features that help reduce clutter, Beazer is designing homes that support the way families actually use their home."

Beazer's extensive research into home-buyer preferences found that a more organized house is at the top of the list of what people want most. Of new and prospective buyers surveyed, nearly 73 percent listed the kitchen as their top priority, with nearly one in two women reporting they would give up luxury lighting and stainless steel appliances in exchange for a more organized kitchen. Other high-priority areas included the home office and garage.

Beazer Homes currently has 15 new home communities throughout the Las Vegas metropolitan area. For more information, visit Beazer.com.
