My team took a fresh approach to traditional style in this home. Inspired by fresh cut blossoms and a crisp palette, we transformed the space with airy elegance. Exquisite natural stones and antique silhouettes coupled with chalky white hues created an understated elegance as romantic as a love poem.

This clean profile, streamlined kitchen embodies today's transitional look. The white painted perimeter cabinetry contrasts the grey stained island, while perfectly blending cool and warm tones.

A hip young family moving from Boston tackled an enormous makeover of an antique colonial revival home in downtown Larchmont. The kitchen area was quite spacious but benefitted from a small bump out for a banquette and additional windows. Navy blue island and tall cabinetry matched to Benjamin Moore’s Van Deusen blue is balanced by crisp white (Benjamin Moore’s Chantilly Lace) cabinetry on the perimeter. The mid-century inspired suspended fireplace adds warmth and style to the kitchen. A tile covered range hood blends the ventilation into the walls. Brushed brass hardware by Lewis Dolan in a contemporary T-bar shape offer clean lines in a warm metallic tone. White Marble countertops on the perimeter are balanced by white quartz composite on the island. Kitchen design and custom cabinetry by Studio Dearborn. Countertops by Rye Marble.

Treatment For Residential Waste water Every home generates wastewater and while there is no way of getting away from this fact, it is good to know that there are quite a few options when it comes to treating residential wastewater. The traditional septic tank For a very long time, the septic tank ruled the roost when it came to residential water treatment. This tank is a fairly simple construction and is very widely used. It relies on the sedimentation process to deal with residential wastewater. Sometimes the septic tank can be boosted in its processes with the use of: • Flocculates. • Chemical inputs. • Patented or proprietary technology and so on. Use of chemical methods Processes such as chlorination have emerged as cost effective methods to treat wastewater. At the heart of the following processes is the use of a chemical agent and a chemical reaction to get the wastewater treated: • Ion exchange. • Adsorption. • Chlorination. • Use of polyvalent metals for coagulation and so on. Biological processes In a very unique wastewater treatment approach – bacteria are used to break down the components of wastewater! Of course there is a lot of science and research that has gone into these methods of treating wastewater. For instance, the use of a septic tank, as stated above is a biological, anaerobic method of treatment. Biological processes will also cater for destroying any disease causing organisms. The combined approach Residential wastewater is also treated with the use of a combination of methods. For instance, a device that uses an aerobic approach to wastewater treatment will also have mechanical components to get the process to be even more effective. It is critical to invest in a system that promises total – 100% - treatment of the wastewater. If the residential wastewater is not treated comprehensively then the effluents can cause all kinds of health issues to the people in the property. Effective systems If you are scouting for a system to help in treating residential wastewater then you should know that there are systems that are sophisticated in their working. Flow equalization to ensure 100% treatment and the use of an internet based alarm system make such products very effective and energy efficient too. It is also a good idea to check with your local sanitation authorities before investing in products so you can ensure you are compliant with all local health and public safety rules and regulations. For instance, using NSF certified systems can help in this regard.

How To Choose The Perfect Bathroom Suite? Why stay with a boring, staid and un-relaxing bathroom space when you can, with a bit of thought and the right investment, go for a bathroom space that: • Is so good that it has to be called a suite • Is fitted with the latest items to make bath time relaxation time • Comes with many options so you can choose the perfect one for yourself. Bathroom suites have become rather popular these days because people are realising the many benefits offered by them. The important question then is how do you choose the right bathroom suite for yourself? Space Space is certainly one of the most important considerations for you to start with. Typically, bathroom suites have: • Shower units • Bathtubs • Faucets • Bidets • Toilets and • Sinks to name just a few. Each of these components can be right sized to make your bathroom suite spectacular. For instance, a shower bath is great for small spaces simply because it combines bathing and showering into one unit. If you have a large space for the suite then you can go in for a sprawling suite as well. You could go in for a suite even for an odd space that does not lend itself to regular designs! Ornate or simple? You can create a bathroom suite according to the décor that you love or even the décor that is in place in the rest of your home. For instance, a country style home can have a simple, rustic looking bathroom suite. An ornate sink could even work best for a traditional Victorian type of mansion. Special features It is useful for you to consider the extra features and functions that you need from the bathroom suites. For instance, a bathroom geared for mobility may come in handy if you have senior citizens or people with special needs living in the house. People also choose eco friendly bathrooms which can help them save water and power bills too. Make the time to plan It is a very good idea for you to spend a bit of extra time in planning and choosing. There are quite a few websites like Bella Bathrooms that are dedicated to bathroom suites and you should browse their images and information so you can choose the right suite. Of course it also helps to talk to their experts who will give you additional inputs when it comes to designing the right space. After all, you would not want to invest in the wrong bathroom or the wrong space to relax in!
