## Community Q&A

**Q: Do you know what specific slate material was used for this fireplace?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Thanks for your inquiry. The tile, Silver Strip Cladding, is from Tile Showcase. Tile size is 2x12.

**Q: Tub brand** *(in Photo Questions)*

Is that a wood tub?  What brand is it?  Thank you.

A: Thanks for your questions. The tub is indeed wood. Wood species is Iroko. Tub custom designed by RÜME. Fabricated by Howard Boats in Barnstable, MA. For cost inquiries contact Howard Boats.

**Q: Stairwell** *(in Photo Questions)*

Love the stairwell!  Do you have any additional photos you could send that provide a closer look at the cable system and connectivity?

A: Hi, Thanks for your comment and inquiry regarding the custom cable handrail.  There are no additional photos available at this time on Houzz, but I'd be happy to follow up at a later date.

**Q: Beautiful bathroom** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you tell me if this is teakwood?
If so, where did you get the vanities?

A: The custom vanities, built-in shelves and bathtub are not teak, but iroko wood, which in color and fine grain is similar to teak. All were custom designed by RÜME and built by a local woodworking shop. The custom bathtub was built by a custom wooden boat maker.  The tiles surrounding the mirrors are teak. Thanks for your question and glad you like the design.

**Q: Wood?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Beautiful room. What kind of wood was used for the cabinets and mantle?  Thank you in advance.

A: Thanks for your comment and question. Both the mantle and custom cabinets are walnut.

**Q: Wall accent color** *(in Photo Questions)*

What is the color of paint and brand used on the orange accent wall?

A: Hi, Thanks for your question. The paint is a Benjamin Moore color mixed by a local paint store to match the perfect orange of an Hermes box. Glad you like it!
