A TOUCH OF FIN DE SIÈCLE. | The classical form of Madison, with its separate hot and cold taps, is reminiscent of historical fittings at the start of the twentieth century. But it is not only those of us who are prone to nostalgia who are excited by the sight of the indulgent, traditional shapes. Madison combines a nostalgic charm with functional elements. The elegant cross-handles, with their white porcelain elements, stylize the classical, historical model. A touch of fin de siècle. | Available at www.shopstudio41.com

Because basements are prone to moisture, we opted for luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring instead of hardwood. This mid-tone plank is one of my favorites, and I love the character it brings to the basement. To ensure the living room setting looked cohesive with the rest of the space, we paired the flooring with a deeper wood tone, which we placed around the fireplace, bar, and serving area. We reinforced the sultry, sophisticated deep brown color on the leather armchairs and coffee table.

Get smart. To outsmart kids prone to leaving lights on, the Lutron Maestro motion sensor automatically turns lights on and off, and to set the mood lighting, the handy Lutron Caseta Wireless controller dims lights and raises and lowers blinds while iDevices switches wirelessly control the Robert Abbey Delta Emerald Glazed Table Lamp and floor fan, while the heat and AC are controlled by a Honeywell Lyric thermostat. Both wireless controllers and the thermostat respond to app or voice commands by Amazon Echo, which can also play music, update a Google calendar, report the news, and even read the kids a story. The family can play it safe anywhere in the home with Samsung smartthings hub home monitoring kit which sends alerts via app if anyone passes a sensor or opens or closes a connected door or window.

When spring comes back to the world of the living after a cold, long and annoying winter, people seem to wake up from a certain slumber of stagnation just as well. The more warm it gradually becomes, the more prone they get to indulge themselves in organizing pleasant, outside meetings among their families and friends. And it's completely understandable, as it is more enjoyable in the fresh air where one can freely bask in the sun. Often, instead of venturing to public spaces, they choose to stay close to home. Or actually, stay home-adjacent, as they tend to organize their meetings on their patios. Those are occassions Toja patio furniture is just perfect for. It provides great comfort and even greater style. It will add life and elegance to every patio it gets placed in. Our sets can be combined in many variations as their respective pieces can be bought separately. Their fantastic durability and unique constructions mark them as things to be either proud or jealous of. As far as patio furniture goes, this is the best possible choice.
