One of the most important things for those of us who like enjoying a hot bath, is the water temperature. As time passes, the water temperature in your bathtub drops down and requires you to constantly be adding hot water to maintain the temperature, which in turn requires large capacity water boilers, wasting water and electricity. Made of state-of-the-art AquateX™ solid surface material, the Aquatica True Ofuro Japanese style bathtub with Tranquility bath heating system is fitted with a recirculation system (just like the traditional Japanese oidaki) and ozone disinfection system. The Tranquility bathtub heating system was designed to eliminate the hot water adding hassle and maintain the water temperature at a constant 104F /40C (41-45C in Europe and other markets). The built-in Tranquility heating system is utilizing a low flow/high-efficiency ultra-quiet pump. Equipped with minimalist control panel, a standard 1.5kW inline water heater (US) or 2kW (Europe and other markets) with ozone disinfection, Bluetooth audio system, and underwater LED сhromotherapy system, the Tranquility system provides the ultimate luxury bathing experience.

Enjoying in an elegant atmosphere Everything flows in the Community Clubhouse of architect Keng Fu Lo. The kitchen by LEICHT is the focus and enjoys a seamless transition into the lounge. The Community Clubhouse, located in a residential building in Tainan, offers its residents spacious rooms for relaxation and joint activities on three floors; spa areas are just as important as yoga rooms and a shared kitchen by LEICHT. Embedded in a complex ecosystem, the Clubhouse is operated energy-efficiently and is surrounded by a water landscape and lush trees. The architect‘s main concern was to create a building in which nature and inhabited space merge. Photo: Kuo-Min Lee

After Photo: This family needed to redesign their living room to coordinate with the adjacent dining room which was full of vibrant artwork and Asian pieces they had collected over their many years of traveling. The dining room had a lot of color going on in it so it was important to pull in color to the living room. However, it needed to be done in a more subtle way so that the two rooms wouldn’t compete or clash when it came to color. The walls in the two rooms were both painted a warm neutral in order to connect the two rooms rather than separate them. Although the amethyst color primarily used is soft and calming, it also lends a sense of fun when you pair it with a fun pattern! Gold accents add to the Asian flair in the adjacent dining room as well as add a little extra sophistication to the living room. Silk drapes add a great finishing touch!

Dining is more important to these homeowners than the need for a full living room. This sitting room nook provides a comfy chat or reading space away from the activity of the kitchen. Couch, chair and rug: Ethan Allen Eames Chair: AllModern

Doug Sturgeon Eclipse Photography | This space needed to play double duty. Provide an inviting area to work and consult with clients during the day while also serving as a functional kitchen, bathroom, living and sleeping space for my client that downsized from a townhouse. It was a tall order, but we worked closely to ensure the space functioned well in both capacities. The result is a travel inspired, eclectic, yet modern space that reflects my client's personality and style. It was a multi phased project given all the kitchen & bath renovations required. The previous kitchen had been removed entirely so we started from scratch and we're extremely proud of the result. ​ Favourite pieces include the subtle iridescent backsplash, the moroccan lighting, the sliding glass shower enclosure, the imported media unit made from fishing boats, the hanging bike and my clients travel photographer that add colour and his personality to the space.

Location: Spring Lake, NJ, US Our design goal for this renovation and addition was to present a modern interpretation of Colonial Plantation Style. This home features dark wood floors, wood paneling and a light soothing color scheme. The Dining Room features classic silk De Gournay Wallpaper which further fuses the indoor and outdoor seamlessness of the home. The amazing tile installations permeate the decor with color, texture and pattern. The shaker-style kitchen is refreshed by using black cabinetry, a custom stainless hood and La Cornue Range. We enjoyed adding vintage finds throughout - a farm table for the Kitchen, Bergere chairs in the Entry, and a Victorian Flower mirror in the Powder Room. threshold interiors ensures that your beach retreat is elegant, transitional and most importantly comfortable and relaxing!

The entrance gate to the garden is made of Port Orford cedar. Layered cedar shingles compose the roof of the gate, and the ridge is capped with traditional Japanese ceramic tiles. The design motif of the gate doors was hand carved by Sakaguchi-san. In traditional Japanese construction, finish is never applied to the cedar, and the wood ages over time to a silver gray. In this photo, taken a few years after construction, one can see this process beginning to take place.

Simple white cabinets were used throughout the kitchen, hallway and family room to keep the space bright. This also allowed the homeowner's eclectic ensemble of collected items from around the world stand out. Open shelves, a wood top and industrial looking tile create interesting focal points throughout the space.
