This Florida Gulf home is a project by DIY Network where they asked viewers to design a home and then they built it! Talk about giving a consumer what they want! We were fortunate enough to have been picked to tile the kitchen--and our tile is everywhere! Using tile from countertop to ceiling is a great way to make a dramatic statement. But it's not the only dramatic statement--our monochromatic Moroccan Fish Scale tile provides a perfect, neutral backdrop to the bright pops of color throughout the kitchen. That gorgeous kitchen island is recycled copper from ships! Overall, this is one kitchen we wouldn't mind having for ourselves.

Bringing the outdoors in and letting ample light flood the room, this window back splash was the perfect opportunity to do so. Stainless Steel undermounted sinks allow a clean look next to the white easy to clean quartz counter top. A built up flamed black absolute granite adds texture and creates an informal eat-in kitchen space.

The Atherton House is a family compound for a professional couple in the tech industry, and their two teenage children. After living in Singapore, then Hong Kong, and building homes there, they looked forward to continuing their search for a new place to start a life and set down roots. The site is located on Atherton Avenue on a flat, 1 acre lot. The neighboring lots are of a similar size, and are filled with mature planting and gardens. The brief on this site was to create a house that would comfortably accommodate the busy lives of each of the family members, as well as provide opportunities for wonder and awe. Views on the site are internal. Our goal was to create an indoor- outdoor home that embraced the benign California climate. The building was conceived as a classic “H” plan with two wings attached by a double height entertaining space. The “H” shape allows for alcoves of the yard to be embraced by the mass of the building, creating different types of exterior space. The two wings of the home provide some sense of enclosure and privacy along the side property lines. The south wing contains three bedroom suites at the second level, as well as laundry. At the first level there is a guest suite facing east, powder room and a Library facing west. The north wing is entirely given over to the Primary suite at the top level, including the main bedroom, dressing and bathroom. The bedroom opens out to a roof terrace to the west, overlooking a pool and courtyard below. At the ground floor, the north wing contains the family room, kitchen and dining room. The family room and dining room each have pocketing sliding glass doors that dissolve the boundary between inside and outside. Connecting the wings is a double high living space meant to be comfortable, delightful and awe-inspiring. A custom fabricated two story circular stair of steel and glass connects the upper level to the main level, and down to the basement “lounge” below. An acrylic and steel bridge begins near one end of the stair landing and flies 40 feet to the children’s bedroom wing. People going about their day moving through the stair and bridge become both observed and observer. The front (EAST) wall is the all important receiving place for guests and family alike. There the interplay between yin and yang, weathering steel and the mature olive tree, empower the entrance. Most other materials are white and pure. The mechanical systems are efficiently combined hydronic heating and cooling, with no forced air required.

Cero panels and transom glass turn the living room's outer wall into an open frame for the mountains, with the indoor fireplace echoing the fire feature out on the terrace.

Unlike Mass Produced tile, each Zellige piece is unique, it's edges slighted by the touch of it's maker. The tile is never static; it moves as the day's light shifts.

Water Treatment and Wastewater Recycling Plant in Oil and Gas Production WATERMAN ENGINEERS AUSTRALIA Introduction Water is a critical component in oil and gas processing, playing a crucial role in various stages of exploration, production, and refining. However, water handling in such processes poses serious challenges, mainly in connection with treating high TDS and salinity water. The situation is even more serious in oilfield sites, gas field sites, and exploratory sites where the need for water recycling and treatment is always necessary to minimize the impact on the environment and to keep operational costs at a minimum. The oil and gas industry has seen a growing concern toward water treatment and recycling. These processes underline the sustainability of operations, license to operate, and low environmental footprint. This paper discusses the roles water treatment plants can play in mitigating the problems of high TDS and salinity during oil and gas production by recycling and reusing water to minimize waste and environmental harm. The Water Challenges in Oil and Gas Production Water finds its application on a large scale in the oil and gas industry for several purposes, such as in drilling, hydraulic fracturing, cooling, and hydrocarbon processing. The water used in these aforementioned processes frequently comes into contact with a wide array of contaminants, among which are hydrocarbons, heavy metals, several various chemicals, and high concentrations of dissolved salts. This contaminated water, often referred to as produced water, produces a great environmental risk if not properly treated. Produced water typically contains high TDS concentrations, including salts, minerals, and other dissolved solids. Reservoir location and depth can make the salinity of this water vary widely. For many produced waters, these TDS values are very high and not suitable for direct discharge or reuse without treatment. The presence of salts and other dissolved solids can result in scaling, corrosion, and other operational problems of equipment, pipelines, and storage vessels.
