There is nothing else quite like our True Ofuro Duo. This unique, modern take on the traditional Japanese-style bathtub is made for seated soaking of two bathers. So the design incorporates two built-in seats and the depth of the tub has been extended to 27.75” (70.5 cm) to ensure full body immersion for even 6ft (180 cm) plus bathers. The interior ergonomics of this bathtub is all directed to providing effortless comfort and support. True Ofuro Duo is a very deep and luxurious Japanese style freestanding soaking tub that was designed specifically for a relaxing full body soaking experience. This traditional ofuro style bathtub with a modern twist is a perfect choice for those who take great pleasure in the benefits of soaking in hot water. Featuring a sculptured built-in headrest, Aquatica's True Ofuro Duo allows you to exfoliate the day's worries with your significant other providing you with deep, aromatic and luxurious comfort. Soaking in hot water in True Ofuro Duo might sound enjoyable on its own, but at Aquatica, we have the options to enhance your soaking experience with additional equipment and accessories: - add our Tranquility water heating and circulation system, matching floor mat, step cabinet and side table for accessories with towel hanger. Made of light-weight state of the art DurateX™ glass-carbon composite, True Ofuro Duo provides a luxury of an intimate indoor-outdoor bathing experience for couples.

A young family with a wooded, triangular lot in Ipswich, Massachusetts wanted to take on a highly creative, organic, and unrushed process in designing their new home. The parents of three boys had contemporary ideas for living, including phasing the construction of different structures over time as the kids grew so they could maximize the options for use on their land. They hoped to build a net zero energy home that would be cozy on the very coldest days of winter, using cost-efficient methods of home building. The house needed to be sited to minimize impact on the land and trees, and it was critical to respect a conservation easement on the south border of the lot. Finally, the design would be contemporary in form and feel, but it would also need to fit into a classic New England context, both in terms of materials used and durability. We were asked to honor the notions of “surprise and delight,” and that inspired everything we designed for the family. The highly unique home consists of a three-story form, composed mostly of bedrooms and baths on the top two floors and a cross axis of shared living spaces on the first level. This axis extends out to an oversized covered porch, open to the south and west. The porch connects to a two-story garage with flex space above, used as a guest house, play room, and yoga studio depending on the day. A floor-to-ceiling ribbon of glass wraps the south and west walls of the lower level, bringing in an abundance of natural light and linking the entire open plan to the yard beyond. The master suite takes up the entire top floor, and includes an outdoor deck with a shower. The middle floor has extra height to accommodate a variety of multi-level play scenarios in the kids’ rooms. Many of the materials used in this house are made from recycled or environmentally friendly content, or they come from local sources. The high performance home has triple glazed windows and all materials, adhesives, and sealants are low toxicity and safe for growing kids. Photographer credit: Irvin Serrano

As you walk up to the front door of this wonderful 17th century French Country Home, you pass by the two red Crape Myrtle's that are guarding the entry way. The front doors were custom built by Antigua Doors in Danville, Ca and the house was built by Crowder Construction in Alamo, CA. Bill Woods of Danville is the architect.

Design ideas for a traditional landscaping in Philadelphia.

First year planting for this project is a simple monochrome of greens and white. Low maintenance with small white flowers on the Geranium in the spring followed by the Annabelle Hydrangea white flowers all summer to late fall. The birches are preset through the summer with nice fall yellow coloring and interesting beige exfoliating bark for the winter. Some of the Heritage Birch trees are split for evening effect, underneath the wall caps are led lights as well as the steps.

The irregular-edge bluestone walk stands out from the greenery leading visitors to the recessed front door. The wide, smooth surface, low, orchestrated plantings, decorative urns and landscape lighting create an elegant entry in scale with the home and property. Photography by Linda Oyama Bryan
