The essence of age-old bathing traditions from the Japanese with the most modern of bathing amenity delivers this wonderful deep, single person soaking bathtub. Aquatica’s Mini Tranquility is truly reminiscent of the Japanese Ofuro style of tub and like its forebear, includes a built-in seat and ergonomically-shaped back and headrest in which to sit and soak in blissful comfort. Yet all this comes in a tiny footprint of just 43”, the only bathtub like it on the market. Big enough for full-body emersion of even 6ft-plus bathers, yet so compact and space efficient it fits easily where no other bathtub can. The tub is crafted from AquateX™, Aquatica’s patented, next generation solid surface composite that provides robust durability and good looks that are smooth to the skin. The wide rim aids ease of entry into the bath, which can also be enhanced with the addition of the beautiful, optional, solid teak wood step. The other outstanding feature of this unique and wonderful bathtub, also inspired by the ancient Japanese art of bathing, is Aquatica’s water heating and recirculation system (just like the traditional Japanese oidaki). Now, you can enjoy continuous hot water within your bath, maintaining a constant temperature of 104F /40C (41-45C in Europe and other markets) without having to add fresh hot water and waste power. 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.

Overthinking a situation isn’t always a bad thing, particularly when the home in question is one in which the past is suddenly meeting the present. Originally designed by Finnish architect Olav Hammarstrom in 1952 for fellow architect Eero Saarinen, this unique home recently received its first transformation in decades. Still in its 1950s skin, it was completely gutted, inside and out. It was a serious undertaking, as the homeowner wanted modern upgrades, while keeping an eye toward retaining the home’s 1950s charm. She had a vision for her home, and she stuck to it from beginning to end. Perched on a rise of land and overlooking the tranquil Wellfleet Herring Pond, the home initially appears split, with the guest house on the left, and the main house of the right, but both ends are connected with a breezeway. The original home’s bones were in good shape, but many upgrades and replacements were necessary to bring the house up to date. New siding, roofing, gutters, insulation and mechanical systems were all replaced. Doors and windows with metal frames were custom made by a company in Long Island that fabricates doors for office buildings. Modern heating and cooling systems were added, and the three bathrooms were all updated. The footprint of the home remained unchanged. Inside, the only expansion was more closet space. The attention to detail in retaining the 50s-style look took a lot of online searching, from handles and knobs to lighting fixtures, with bits and pieces arriving from all over the world, including a doorstop from New Zealand. The homeowner selected many of the fixtures herself, while a very detail-oriented foreman exhaustively researched as well, looking for just the right piece for each and every location. High-end appliances were purchased to modernize the kitchen and all of the old cabinetry was removed, replaced and refaced with NUVACOR, a versatile surfacing material that not only provided a sleek, modern look, but added convenience and ease of use. Bare, wood-beamed ceilings throughout give a nod to the home’s natural surroundings, while the main living area (formerly a fisherman’s cabin), with a brick fireplace, was completely trimmed in walnut, while multiple windows of varying sizes welcome sunlight to brighten the home. Here, the sheetrock ceiling with faux rafters provides an interesting and room-brightening feature. Behind the house sits the serene pond, which can now be enjoyed from the stunning new deck. Here, decking material was not laid out side by side, as it typically is but, instead, meticulously laid out on edge, creating an unusual and eye-catching effect. A railing of tempered glass panels allows unobstructed views of the surrounding natural beauty, and keeps consistent with the open, airy feel of the place. A new outdoor shower is accessible via the deck and left open to the wilderness and the pond below, completing the bold yet sophisticated feeling of this retro-modern home.

Outdoor sports events bring excitement, energy, and team spirit, and nothing complements that atmosphere better than the right gear. Among the must-have accessories for fans and athletes alike are custom snapback hats. These hats are not only stylish but also functional, providing comfort and protection during long hours in the sun. When paired with personalized sports apparel from FastCustomJerseys, snapback hats become the ultimate accessory for sports enthusiasts. Exceptional Sun Protection One of the most important aspects of attending or participating in an outdoor sports event is protecting yourself from the sun. Prolonged exposure can lead to discomfort, sunburn, and even long-term skin damage. Snapback hats provide excellent coverage for the face and eyes thanks to their structured brims. Adjustable Fit for Maximum Comfort Unlike fixed-size caps, snapback hats come with adjustable back straps, allowing wearers to achieve a personalized fit. This feature ensures the hat stays securely in place even during high-energy activities such as running, cheering, or jumping. A well-fitted snapback also reduces the chances of it blowing away on a windy day, which is essential for outdoor sports events held in open fields or stadiums. Wide Brim for Effective Shade The wide, flat brim of a snapback hat effectively blocks the sun from your eyes, reducing glare and improving visibility. This is particularly beneficial when watching daytime games or participating in sports that require focus and concentration. In addition to comfort, the shade offered by the brim helps prevent squinting and headaches caused by prolonged sun exposure. Durable and Long-Lasting Material Outdoor sports events often involve unpredictable weather, including sudden rain, strong winds, and heat. Snapback hats are crafted from high-quality materials such as cotton, polyester, or a blend, making them durable enough to withstand these conditions. Resistance to Wear and Tear The sturdy construction of snapback hats ensures they can endure rough handling, whether you’re carrying them in a backpack, tossing them into a bag, or adjusting them repeatedly throughout the day. Their long-lasting material makes them a reliable accessory for repeated use over multiple sports seasons. Easy Maintenance Another practical advantage is the ease of cleaning. Snapback hats can be hand-washed or gently wiped down, making them perfect for sports enthusiasts who are constantly on the go. Unlike some delicate hats that lose their shape, snapbacks maintain their structure even after repeated cleaning. Versatility in Style Snapback hats are not just functional; they are also stylish accessories that enhance your overall look at sports events. Their design allows them to complement a wide range of outfits, from casual shorts and t-shirts to sports jerseys. Trendy and Modern Look The structured shape and bold appearance of snapbacks make them a fashion-forward choice. Many sports fans enjoy wearing snapbacks featuring team colors, logos, or custom designs to showcase their support. This combination of fashion and functionality makes snapbacks a must-have for anyone looking to make a statement at a sports event. Gender-Neutral Appeal Snapback hats are suitable for everyone. Their universal design ensures that they can be worn by men, women, and teenagers alike, without compromising style or comfort. The adjustable strap guarantees a perfect fit for all head sizes, making it a versatile accessory for groups attending outdoor events together. Lightweight and Breathable Design Comfort is key during long hours at outdoor sports events. Snapback hats are typically lightweight, which prevents discomfort and allows for extended wear. Breathable Materials for Airflow Most snapback hats are designed with breathable fabrics or ventilation holes, allowing air to circulate around the scalp. This feature is especially important during hot summer events, as it reduces sweat accumulation and keeps the head cool. Ideal for High-Intensity Activities Whether you are participating in sports like baseball, soccer, or running, the lightweight design ensures that the hat does not weigh you down. The combination of comfort and practicality makes snapbacks ideal for athletes and spectators alike. Easy Customization for Team Spirit Snapback hats are highly customizable, which is a significant advantage for sports enthusiasts. Fans and athletes alike can choose designs, colors, or logos that represent their favorite teams or personal style. Showcase Team Loyalty Attending a sports event wearing a snapback hat that features team colors or emblems is an excellent way to display loyalty and enthusiasm. It adds a sense of unity among fans and creates a visually engaging atmosphere at outdoor games. Personalized Accessories In addition to team logos, snapback hats can also be customized with personal designs, slogans, or initials. This makes them not only a practical accessory but also a personal statement that reflects individual personality and taste. Affordable and Accessible Compared to other sports accessories, snapback hats are reasonably priced and widely available. This affordability allows fans to purchase multiple hats for different events or seasons, without straining their budget. A Smart Investment Considering their durability, versatility, and timeless appeal, snapback hats are a smart investment for anyone attending outdoor sports events. They provide long-term value, combining protection, style, and comfort in a single accessory. Easy to Find Snapback hats are available at sports stores, online retailers, and event venues, making them highly accessible. Their popularity ensures that fans can easily find designs that suit their preferences and support their favorite teams. Conclusion Custom snapback hats are the perfect accessory for outdoor sports events. They combine functionality, style, and team spirit, making them a must-have for both players and fans. By choosing hats from FastCustomJerseys, sports enthusiasts can enjoy personalized designs, superior comfort, and long-lasting durability. Whether for sun protection, team unity, or simply looking stylish at the stadium, custom snapback hats enhance the overall sports experience, proving that sometimes the right accessory can make all the difference.

This client prefers a minimal approach, which we accommodated by providing reduced visual clutter with strategically placed wall art and large furnishings to fill the space. This includes the sculptural pieces styled in the custom-built bookcases. This 9ft tall custom feature was then styled in pieces that aligned with the client’s aesthetic. Due to our client’s hindrances in physical capabilities with his hands, we changed out many of the window blinds to cordless and easy pull-downs as well as replaced tassels for ease of function and reach. The double-height ceilings in this space pose a challenge when it comes to accessing the upper windows. To address this issue, we have installed automated shades for our client. These shades not only filter light to protect our client's delicate skin but also provide a practical solution for controlling the lighting in this newly renovated area.

A jewel box townhouse with a high/low approach gave our busy working couple a design-forward space, arousing a new sense of happiness and pride in their home. With a love for entertaining, our clients needed a space that would meet their functional needs and be a reflection of them. They brought on Pulp to create a vision that would functionally articulate their style. Our design team imagined this edgy concept with lots of unique style elements, texture, and contrast. Pulp mixed luxury items, such as the bone-inlay cocktail table and textual black croc wall covering, and offset them with more affordable whimsical touches, like individual framed feathers. Beth and Carolina pushed their tastes to the limit with unexpected touches, like the split face bookends and the teak hand chair, to add a quirky layer and graphic edge that our homeowners would come to fall in love with.

Bare, wood-beamed ceilings throughout give a nod to the home’s natural surroundings, while the main living area (formerly a fisherman’s cabin), with a brick fireplace, was completely trimmed in walnut, while multiple windows of varying sizes welcome sunlight to brighten the home. Here, the sheetrock ceiling with faux rafters provides an interesting and room-brightening feature. Behind the house sits the serene pond, which can now be enjoyed from the stunning new deck. Here, decking material was not laid out side by side, as it typically is but, instead, meticulously laid out on edge, creating an unusual and eye-catching effect. A railing of tempered glass panels allows unobstructed views of the surrounding natural beauty, and keeps consistent with the open, airy feel of the place. A new outdoor shower is accessible via the deck and left open to the wilderness and the pond below, completing the bold yet sophisticated feeling of this retro-modern home.

Overthinking a situation isn’t always a bad thing, particularly when the home in question is one in which the past is suddenly meeting the present. Originally designed by Finnish architect Olav Hammarstrom in 1952 for fellow architect Eero Saarinen, this unique home recently received its first transformation in decades. Still in its 1950s skin, it was completely gutted, inside and out. It was a serious undertaking, as the homeowner wanted modern upgrades, while keeping an eye toward retaining the home’s 1950s charm. She had a vision for her home, and she stuck to it from beginning to end. Perched on a rise of land and overlooking the tranquil Wellfleet Herring Pond, the home initially appears split, with the guest house on the left, and the main house of the right, but both ends are connected with a breezeway. The original home’s bones were in good shape, but many upgrades and replacements were necessary to bring the house up to date. New siding, roofing, gutters, insulation and mechanical systems were all replaced. Doors and windows with metal frames were custom made by a company in Long Island that fabricates doors for office buildings. Modern heating and cooling systems were added, and the three bathrooms were all updated. The footprint of the home remained unchanged. Inside, the only expansion was more closet space. The attention to detail in retaining the 50s-style look took a lot of online searching, from handles and knobs to lighting fixtures, with bits and pieces arriving from all over the world, including a doorstop from New Zealand.
