In the not-so-distant past, appliances were simple, and we wouldn’t necessarily call them “smart”: dishwashers washed dishes, dryers dried clothes, and refrigerators kept food cold. Today’s smart refrigerators, on the other hand, suggest recipes based on what’s on your shelf or in season in your region, while AI-equipped washer-dryers offers up recommendations on how to launder based on fabric type and soil level. That level of intelligent technology is revolutionizing not just design, but, maybe even more importantly, daily life. Join today’s episode to hear from Claudia Santos, Director of Product Marketing at Samsung Electronics America, about the ins and outs of smart-home technology and the rapid way it's benefiting today’s appliance consumers.

She joins the show today to discuss mindful material and finishing choice, the luxury of sourcing the right appliances, and her own backyard’s super-swanky “art piece” hammock.
