Builder’s Shrinking Luxury Homes

Posted in Cannon Advertising with tags , , , , , , on April 3, 2010 by cannonadvertising


The wealthy have a secret, but their home builders know.

They’re downsizing.

While the real estate boom spurred 9,000-square-foot single-family homes and Gone with the Wind-style foyers, the bust has born new models from luxury builders advertised as opulent, yet “efficient” — read slightly smaller, less bling.

In November, Toll Brothers announced three new lower-priced floor plans available at its Wellington View community near Forest Hill Boulevard and Lyons Road.

On Sunday, Kenco Communities will give residents of The Oaks at Boca Raton a sneak peek at its post-boom, 4,943-square-foot Verona model.

With six bedrooms and a three-car garage, the Verona lives up to Kenco’s five-star reputation, but comes with a price tag of $1.3 million. Yes, that’s the cheap model.

Kenco designs from the past few years range in price between $2.5 million and $5 million. For the extra cash, you can get the 7,408-square-foot Consenza home with a sweeping staircase, a wet bar, an elevator, and a wine closet that opens into a formal dining room with a 12-foot coffer ceiling.

“What happened in 2004, 2005, and 2006, it was all about the bigger the better, that was the mantra,” said Ken Endelson, co-founder and chairman of Kenco Communities. “We started out in 2003 building houses that were 4,700 square feet, 5,500 square feet. Then, three years later, people wanted 6,000 feet plus.”

The new Verona model will save space by cutting out a formal dining room and a formal living room — a space Endelson said is a showcase, but rarely used.

“Right away, you save 700 feet,” he said.

Florida is not alone in shrinking its McMansions.

Nationwide, builders say they are trying to cater to post-recession buyers who still want luxury, but at a discount.

A survey released last year by the National Association of Home Builders found that nearly 90 percent of builders are designing smaller homes in response to requests from architects and consumers.

It’s probably too early to know how well the designs are faring.

New home sales in the South have fluctuated throughout the year, jumping 23 percent in October compared with September, according to U.S. Commerce Department reports.

November sales, however, plummeted 21 percent compared with October. Nationwide, October sales of new homes reached 430,000, up from 405,000 in September.

While the majority of new homes have “bread and butter” floor plans for first-time buyers or middle-income move-up consumers, luxury builders have to be more discerning when redesigning.

They can’t just wipe out luxury elements altogether.

For example, Toll Brothers’ new designs may still have stately columns, but they’ll be high-impact foam instead of stone.

Hurricane-resistant glass windows are an option on the new designs, not a given. Also, the master bedroom is on the second floor, above the family room. Before, the master bedroom would be on the ground floor and the family room had a soaring two-story ceiling.

“The market is very wise,” said Ron Blum, Toll Brothers’ senior vice president, Southeast Florida division. “The type of home we’ve designed now is inexpensive to build, and that brings us to a marketplace where we can reach more people.”

Typically, Toll Brothers designed homes with 3,000, 4,000 and 5,000 square feet. The new homes will fill in the size gaps with a 3,200-square-foot model and other in-between sizes.

Toll Brothers’ new pricing will begin at about $450,000, instead of $495,000.

“There’s a whole new economic reality and people are much more pragmatic,” said Scott Agran, president of Boca Raton-based Lang Realty. “Builders don’t have a choice but to redesign. They can’t ask for $5 million anymore.”

From Homes to Cones: A Homebuilder’s Foray into the Gelato Business

Posted in Cannon Advertising with tags , , , , on April 3, 2010 by cannonadvertising


DELRAY BEACH, Fla. – Established homebuilder J.P. DiMisa, of New Century Companies has made an unexpected but delicious crossover into the dessert biz with the opening of Cream.

The slowing of the real estate market in recent times has been about as disheartening as a melted ice cream cone. But one homebuilder has found a way to sweeten the situation. J.P. DiMisa, co-owner of New Century Companies, a developer of distinctive neighborhoods and builder of luxury custom homes, is venturing into the coffee and dessert business. Cream, DiMisa’s tasty new endeavor, is a luscious spot offering a rainbow of rich gelatos and refreshing sorbettos to be savored in cups, waffle cones, or in creamy shakes and smoothies.

So what does serving gelato have to do with building houses? Surprisingly, there is a common denominator. “My mantra is ‘quality ingredients yield a quality product,” said DiMisa. When building a home, his ingredients are innovative planning, strong architecture, and better materials. The concept is the same at Cream, where all-natural, uncompromised ingredients result in a robust, fresh taste.

Aside from the gelatos, Cream’s menu also presents an assortment of specialty drinks using imported Italian coffee. The decadent Caffè Mocha is illy espresso blended with rich, dark chocolate and steamed milk, finished with heavy cream, while the satisfying Gelato Affogato sinfully drowns your favorite gelato flavor with a shot of espresso.

As the perfect accompaniment, sumptuous fresh-baked desserts such as molten lava cake or famous baked Alaska are also featured at Cream.

DiMisa described getting the idea for his new enterprise as a light bulb turning on in his mind. Retailers like Starbucks and Jamba Juice approached him about leasing the space, but, being a self-proclaimed “gourmet,“ DiMisa decided he’d rather do his own thing and in turn launched the gelato and coffee concept. “It’s been an amazing experience from development to opening day,” said DiMisa of the delectable departure.

The still active homebuilder can frequently be found both at and behind the counter at Cream. He’ll stop by several times a day: in the morning for a cup of black coffee, after lunch for a sampling of the newest flavor his chef has prepared, and on the way home to pick up a pint for his family to enjoy. And if the shop is busy during a visit, he’ll quickly jump back behind the counter and start scooping.

DiMisa invites guests to stop in and taste what Cream is all about. He is certain they will leave contented.

About New Century Companies

Still very much a force in the homebuilding industry, New Century is the developer behind some of the most desirable communities in South Florida, including The Heritage Club at Delray Beach and Segovia Square in Boca Raton. They also help clients realize their visions with a “Custom Building Division,” that tends to every detail of a dream home from the ground up. Headed up by real estate powerhouses J.P DiMisa, David Biggs, Robert Mathias and Dennis Kaplan, New Century Companies has engaged in real estate activity resulting in over $700 million in acquisitions, development, and construction. The company is continually acquiring new land and constructing homes of great beauty and quality. For more information, visit http://www.newcenturycompanies.com.

Cannon Advertising Donates Creative to Boca Raton Children’s Museum

Posted in Cannon Advertising with tags , , on April 3, 2010 by cannonadvertising


Boca Raton, Fla. (November 13, 2009) – When youngsters and the young-at-heart visit the Boca Raton’s Children’s Museum, imaginations are at work. Imaginative minds, too, are at work at Cannon Advertising, where the boutique agency recently created materials for the Children’s Museum. A website, brochures, and business cards are some of the materials the Children’s Museum received pro-bono.

“It is difficult to adequately express how much the new materials and website mean to us as we launch our Capital Campaign and redouble our efforts to communicate proactively with the greater Boca Raton area residents,” said Penny Morey, President of Board of Directors for the Boca Raton Children’s Museum. “Pleasing a broad spectrum of individuals from differing backgrounds and age groups is never easy; but Lynn and her terrific team certainly made it look that way.”

As an active member of the business community, Morey has the opportunity to see the materials and websites of a wide variety of enterprises, and finds the quality of Cannon’s work outstanding by comparison. The folks at the Children’s Museum feel more focused having worked with Lynn. They consider her “the best of the best.”

“Working with Cannon Advertising these past few months has energized everyone at the Children’s Museum. Lynn and her associates captured the vibrancy of our organization and its children, not only with the printed word, but through the high-tech communication world via the website,” said Poppi Mercier, Executive Director of the Museum.

With an expansion project of adding the Rickards House and Jason’s Music Hall to the Museum’s serene setting, Cannon’s creative talents and priceless support have already given it a lead toward success.

The people at Cannon are equally pleased by their involvement. “It truly is my honor to be able to donate creative services to the Museum. It is a wonderful place and I hope our contributions will raise awareness about the museum and bring throngs of visitors to it,” said Lynn Cannon, President of Cannon Advertising.

LAGO MAR COUNTRY CLUB TO REVEAL MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR RENOVATION

Posted in Cannon Advertising with tags , , , on April 3, 2010 by cannonadvertising


PLANTATION, Fla. (October 29, 2009) Lago Mar Country Club, already one of South Florida’s finest private country clubs, is now the most desirable, due to a $7.5 million renovation showcasing a breathtaking 18-hole golf course, the newest in Broward County. The course is the masterpiece of Kipp Schulties, one of the most admired up-and-coming architects in the industry.

Adding contour to the otherwise flat terrain typical of Florida, Schulties created cascading rolls and hills reminiscent of the Carolinas. “The elevations we added make for beautiful vistas and a more interesting framework that can be enjoyed for the next 30 to 40 years,” said the famed architect. Live oaks and classic palms such as Royals and Coconuts pepper the grounds, providing further visual splash.

Members will relish the variety of distances characterizing the new course. “Through this operation, we were able to stretch the course so that it competes with the best in South Florida,” said Schulties, explaining that the re-design simultaneously challenges the better golfers while treating high handicappers to larger playable spaces.

The newly renovated course leaves no turf unturned, as Lago Mar will feature all new greens, tees, fairways, landscaping, putting greens, and bunkers. New irrigation, roughs, cart paths, and driving range, round out the restoration.

The Schulties’ family-friendly course will play host to Club tournaments, couples golf events, men and women’s leagues, junior programs and camps.

The multi-million dollar makeover will be revealed at the much anticipated
Lago Mar Grand Re-opening projected for January 2010.

For further information, please contact Lago Mar Membership Director, Ellen Singer, at (954) 472.7044 or visit http://www.LagoMarCC.com.

Kipp’s impressive scope of work includes his award-winning renovation of courses at Mayacoo Lakes, Lost Tree, Addison Reserve, and the country club course of the Boca Raton Resort & Club.

About Lago Mar
Lago Mar Country Club’s star attraction is its Schulties-designed golf course. Men’s and women’s leagues, junior programs and camps are just a few of the activities inviting participation. Members will also enjoy five lighted Har-Tru tennis courts and a swimming pool.

The Clubhouse’s two fine dining rooms are the perfect locale for celebrations and special events, as well as everyday casual and upscale dining orchestrated by a skilled culinary staff.

The exclusive community is comprised of 99 homes at prices ranging from $500K to over $1.5 million. However, non-residents are warmly welcomed to become members of the Club.

PowerReady™ Power Systems™ Selects Tangarie Alternative Power LLC™ as Partner for its Vertical Axis Wind Turbine

Posted in Cannon Advertising on April 3, 2010 by cannonadvertising


Boca Raton, Fla. (Sept. 30th, 2009) – PowerReady™ Power Systems™, maker of solar and wind rechargeable backup power systems, recently commissioned Tangarie Alternative Power LLC™ to supply its latest eco-friendly product, a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine, for PowerReady’s™ newest backup power system.

Tangarie is among the leaders in the development of renewable power and products. PowerReady™ selected the American company to manufacture PowerReady’s™ private line of Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWT).

“After a thorough selection process, we did not feel comfortable with placing the PowerReady™ brand on any other company’s vertical axis wind turbine other than Tangarie’s,” said Bill Dato, President of PowerReady™.

PowerReady’s™ turbines, which are offered in various graphic designs or branded to fit a company’s marketing strategy, will allow consumers to maintain energy independence, where they can sell the system’s generated wind power back to the utility plant, ultimately saving on electricity.

Tangarie’s dedication to improve VAWT technology to provide more renewable power to consumers played a major role in PowerReady’s™ decision.

“We are proud to be working alongside of such a fast-forward company, whose outstanding reputation meets our greatest expectations,” said Dato. “Due to our current economic climate, PowerReady™ strategically searched for a company that manufactures in the United States, and found that Tangarie’s revolutionary models of VAWTs sets the bar high for the industry.”

(more)
To maintain its mission of designing and delivering cost-effective, fuel and maintenance-free, emergency backup power systems, PowerReady™ VAWTs will offer the very latest in alternative energy technology for both residential and commercial structures.

The PowerReady™ VAWT will offer grid-connected or off-grid systems so consumers can generate power through the natural energy of the wind. By capturing this energy, PowerReady™ VAWT users can store the power and utilize the unlimited source to generate power to their homes and businesses.

For the launch and distribution of the new wind turbine, PowerReady™ will again be partnering with Power Battery, a worldwide leader in stationary battery power, a $350-million industry. During an outage, the battery system will continuously recharge by way of solar and wind energy, providing emergency backup power.

PowerReady™ VAWTs are available in 1kW, 2kW, 5kW and 10kW units, and can generate electricity in winds as low as 4.5mph up to wind speeds of 120mph, withstanding extreme weather. The units are aesthetically designed for simple functionality and stability, and are non-pollutant to the environment and wildlife.
For convenience, the VAWTs are virtually silent and require less service and maintenance due to less moving parts.

PowerReady™ Power Systems™ products will also be available through Tangarie’s distributor network.

PowerReady™ Power Systems™ is committed to providing products that minimize impact on the environment and foster a sustainable future, leading to social and economical improvement. The headquarters is located at 178 Glades Road in Boca Raton, Fla. For more information, call (561) 394.2550 or visit http://www.PowerReadyintl.com

Cannon Advertising to Provide Marketing to Newly Renovated Lago Mar Country Club

Posted in Cannon Advertising on April 3, 2010 by cannonadvertising


Plantation, FL (Sept. 17th 2009) – Private Family Country Club Lago Mar has retained the services of Cannon Advertising to provide full service advertising, marketing, public relations and social media marketing to help increase new membership to play on the newest and best course in Broward County.
The $7.4 million club renovation includes a state-of-the-art maintenance facility, new outflow system and most importantly will transform a traditional course design to a modern tournament-caliber layout designed by award-winning golf course designer, Kipp Schulties of Kipp Schulties & Associates.
The grand re-opening is scheduled for the year’s end; however the country club is available for membership tours and future catering events by appointment only. Membership categories include equity, corporate, executive/sports, youth, tennis and social. The tennis and pool facilities, as well as the clubhouse remain open during this transformation.
The new course offers golfers variety and convenience. When the private course re-opens, it will vary in length from roughly 5,000 yards from the forward tees to more than 7,000 yards from the championship tees. Each hole will have three additional tees in between, so golfers can choose how they want to play the layout each day.
Cannon Advertising executives are excited to participate in the unveiling of the course. The Boca Raton full-service agency will help market Lago Mar from new logo design to direct mailers to print advertising. “A complete restoration to the course such as Lago Mar’s deserves attention and we are excited to be a part of the project,” said Lynn Cannon, president of Cannon Advertising.
The renovation not only converted the Plantation golf course into what some may deem “Broward County’s Finest Hidden Jewel,” the carefully crafted design called for extensive landscaping, reshaping and tee repositioning to create a golfer’s ultimate experience.

Lago Mar is keeping up with the trends as the course is among a handful in Florida to have a “green-friendly” irrigation system that uses environmentally responsible HDPE piping instead of PVC.

A wide range of events and tournament activities are available to members including men’s and women’s leagues as well as couples events and junior golf activities, junior camps, instruction and clinics.

Lago Mar Country Club is located at 500 NW 127th Ave., Plantation, FL 33325. Pre-opening memberships are scarcely available until October 31st. For more information, please call Membership Director Ellen Singer at (954) 472.7044 or E-mail ellen@lagomarcc.com.

NATIONAL CAR WASH CHAIN PROMOTES FUNDRAISING TO HELP GET COMMUNITY INVOLVED

Posted in Cannon Advertising on April 3, 2010 by cannonadvertising


Boca Raton, FL (Sept. 11th 2009) – National car wash chain Express Car Wash has taken the initiative to present a new, safer, eco-friendly method of community fundraising, which is designed to help raise money for schools, community projects, athletic teams, or any non-profit organization. Fifty percent of all proceeds are kept by the community fundraiser.
Rather than renting a parking lot, wasting an excess of water, and compromising the safety of participants promoting the fundraiser, the fundraiser simply sells Express Car Wash certificates, which can be redeemed for a professional, fast car wash at Express Car Wash.

Certificates are “custom printed” with the name of the organization and serially numbered for easy control. Pricing and production are at a discounted rate for participants. At the conclusion of the one-month sale period, the group returns any unsold certificates and keeps 50% of all proceeds.

With 18 locations throughout the nation, Express Car Wash prides itself on speed, quality and friendly associates. The family-operated business was started in 1963 and is now operated by brothers and co-owners, John and Michael Shullman.

Once the Boca Raton Express Car Wash fundraising program is underway, the store’s other two locations in Florida: Rub-A-Dub Car Spa in Delray Beach and Big City Car Wash in Jacksonville will follow suit.
The chain offers a wide selection of high-quality, fast service, guaranteeing an exterior wash in less than five minutes, full service wash in less than 15 minutes, and a hand-waxed vehicle in less than 20 minutes.

Express Car Wash is no stranger to supporting the community. The car wash also sponsors local charities, including the Boys and Girls Club of Fort Lauderdale, the Dori Slosberg Foundation, a highway safety organization, and The Haven in Boca Raton, a home for boys in the foster care
system. The company donated $5,000 to Florida charities in 2008 and is increasing its
philanthropy this year.

Reputable for its outstanding customer service, quality and speed, Express Car Wash proudly received the honor of “Business of the Year 2008,” awarded by The South Florida Business Journal. For more information, including car wash locations, contact information and services, call (561) 852.7176 or visit http://www.theexpresscarwash.com.
