The Waltons' Re-trending: Tech, Design & Multi-Gen Living!"

Walton’s Mountain is fondly etched in our memories as the simple Virginia farming family that captured our hearts in the 1970’s. We watched affectionately and eagerly, the tender moments, chaos, laughter and trials as six siblings, parents and grandparents experienced life under one roof and enjoyed the sense of small town community in the fictictious Jefferson County, Virginia.Our modern 21st century seems a world apart from those simpler televised depictions. However, studies are showing that trends are returning to multi-generational living, despite our contemporary lifestyles. And technology and design are making it easier for families to maintain their livelihood and still provide loving and nurturing care to all generationsunder one suitably designed roof. And helping with this movement is someone who knows just how it's done both personally and professional! Meet Lisa Cini, author of, HIVE: A Simple Guide to Multi-Generation Living How Our Family Makes it Work, President and CEO of Mosiac Design Studio (mosiacdesignstudio.com) and Owner of BestLivingTech.com, a company created from her social experiment living with four generations in one home; to help others embrace aging with the help of technology.Lisa shares with us the upside of Multi-gen living, how technology makes it safer and easier and how sensible design works for everyone in the household.
