A soft, warm rug to greet your feet when getting out of bed in the morning, is far more pleasant than stepping onto a cold, hard floor. Wall to wall carpeting is one option, but many of my clients prefer to maintain continuity and continue stone or wood flooring throughout their homes. One solution is an area rug that creates a border around the bed, although ¾ of it is lost under the bed. A less expensive alternative are runners placed on each side of the bed as seen here. This choice is also preferable if you plan to use a bench at the foot of the bed. Robin Lechner Designs

This warehouse loft was rich in character, but it lacked one thing: defined rooms. Our client challenged us to incorporate two new bedrooms, and since the defining wall was lined with windows, we were able to introduce partitions as the driving solution. We also made a point to expose the layered history and raw texture of the original warehouse building that was masked behind the drywall before our renovation. Now, there are two elevated bedrooms with expansive glass walls (alongside integrated curtains), allowing light to continue to fill the depth of the apartment with the option for privacy.

The main requirement for the ideal architectural image is the regularity of its construction for a clear perception of the viewer. Architectural firm in Dubai Luxury Antonovich Design always perfectly fulfills the aesthetic tasks of rhythmic construction of buildings. This harmonization of certain elements of the building brings them to a certain unity. To make the composition of completion is the concentration of a number of elements in the corners of the volume (pilasters, ledges, niches). Calm rhythm of façades, perfect solutions in classic and modern design are continued by a beautiful interior decoration.

This Houston kitchen remodel turned an outdated bachelor pad into a contemporary dream fit for newlyweds. The client wanted a contemporary, somewhat commercial look, but also something homey with a comfy, family feel. And they couldn't go too contemporary, since the style of the home is so traditional. The clean, contemporary, white-black-and-grey color scheme is just the beginning of this transformation from the previous kitchen, The revamped 20-by-15-foot kitchen and adjoining dining area also features new stainless steel appliances by Maytag, lighting and furnishings by Restoration Hardware and countertops in white Carrara marble and Absolute Black honed granite. The paneled oak cabinets are now painted a crisp, bright white and finished off with polished nickel pulls. The center island is now a cool grey a few shades darker than the warm grey on the walls. On top of the grey on the new sheetrock, previously covered in a camel-colored textured paint, is Sherwin Williams' Faux Impressions sparkly "Striae Quartz Stone." Ho-hum 12-inch ceramic floor tiles with a western motif border have been replaced with grey tile "planks" resembling distressed wood. An oak-paneled flush-mount light fixture has given way to recessed lights and barn pendant lamps in oil rubbed bronze from Restoration Hardware. And the section housing clunky upper and lower banks of cabinets between the kitchen an dining area now has a sleek counter-turned-table with custom-milled legs. At first, the client wanted to open up that section altogether, but then realized they needed more counter space. The table - a continuation of the granite countertop - was the perfect solution. Plus, it offered space for extra seating. The black, high-back and low-back bar stools are also from Restoration Hardware - as is the new round chandelier and the dining table over which it hangs. Outdoor Homescapes of Houston also took out a wall between the kitchen and living room and remodeled the adjoining living room as well. A decorative cedar beam stained Minwax Jacobean now spans the ceiling where the wall once stood. The oak paneling and stairway railings in the living room, meanwhile, also got a coat of white paint and new window treatments and light fixtures from Restoration Hardware. Staining the top handrailing with the same Jacobean dark stain, however, boosted the new contemporary look even more. The outdoor living space also got a revamp, with a new patio ceiling also stained Jacobean and new outdoor furniture and outdoor area rug from Restoration Hardware. The furniture is from the Klismos collection, in weathered zinc, with Sunbrella fabric in the color "Smoke."

This staircase features Guipp wall panels with a wood finish, designed with subtle vertical grooves that add a modern detail. The panels create a sleek, continuous look that enhances the vertical space, turning a functional wall into a stylish architectural element. Lightweight, durable, and easy to install, Guipp PVC wall panels are a perfect solution for staircase walls, interior accent panels, and modern wood wall design.

In some older Parisian apartment buildings, the bathroom may feature a unique and unusual element known as a "sanibroyeur." This is a type of macerating toilet that is designed to grind waste into a fine slurry that can be easily transported through the building's plumbing system. Sanibroyeurs are often used in older Parisian apartment buildings where the plumbing system is not designed to handle modern toilets, and they are a popular choice for those who seek a practical and convenient solution to their bathroom needs. Despite their unique design, sanibroyeurs continue to be a functional and essential element of many Parisian apartment bathrooms, embodying the city's commitment to finding practical solutions to the unique challenges posed by its architecture and infrastructure.
