New Look of Showers

                 Most people rarely use a bathtub because of our crazy busy days.  I person am a shower person. They are a great way to start your day by getting in and out to be on time for work. In my case, School. I just wish I had a more interesting shower that was not a  more creative then my boring shower/ tub combo. So I started searching for  what i would like my dream bathroom to be. Here are some ideas I came up with.

                I thought this was a creative way to display a shower. Not sure if I would want my shower in my bedroom and to here getting woken up by my husband in the shower. The layout is not ideal but, it is a creative way to combo a master bath and bedroom together.

                   Spa retreat!!! Here I come! That is exactly how I feel when I see this space.  The space is inspired by a Japanese style with wooden accessories. Love the shower head detail with the white and  brown that creates a sense of nature in the space.
              Interesting......Yes it is! When see this picture I envision a  beach shower. The sea shell shape give the shower a geometric shape and a simple modern shower.

             Lets jump into the future with this time machine. O, wait it is a shower. Yes, I did say shower. The shower is actually a rain shower that is installed t the top of the egg shape. I would love to put this in a guest bath just to blow my visitors minds away.

                 Would you like to take a shower laying down? Well, here is the shower for you. The shower is usually used in spas and for  for physical therapy.  The shower has seven shower  powerful shower heads that are over head and their  is a handheld shower also.





New Face of Facets

             Facets are the new jewelery  of the bathroom. They had attention to the sink and focal point for the room. Faucets have been transformed from boring to fab with these new modern faucet's.

             The facets above has  the bling on the  handles made of swarovski crystals. This would add a glamorous touch to any bath.

The faucet above is called the  Karbon Articulating facuet by kolher. it is able to full extend and  is movable. Great idea to wash down the toothpaste stuck to the sink! This can be used in a kitchen or bathroom setting.

                    I found this interesting picture from Pintrest that has antique faucets . I like the placement of the  faucets. One faucet is placed above the sink and one is place on the side of the sink. Great attention to detail for a bathroom.
 

                     The above faucet is called conceptualized and designed by " A DIF POV Design Solutions  which is located in Portugal. The octave  shape has a control at the base  that lets  you control temperature and amount of water being used.
                 The fan shape faucet above is a simple but exotic style.  This product is made by Yatin. It is a simple geometric shape forms  that let the water flow smoothly into the sink.

Glam that Bathtub


                Bathrooms are the forgotten place when it comes to design. The common and simple bath rooms just have a shower and tub combos. Yes, they are easier to install and cheaper....But where is the GLAM! Here are some over the top glamorous bathtubs sure to blow your mind.

             The hip bathroom is especially designed for a teenager with splashes of blues, purple and pink. The floral pattern is  disperse throughout the room to create this theme. Bath tub is a unique claw foot tub or in other words a ball foot tub.


                                
       Simple but, elegant is the name  of this bathroom. Plain white walls create a relaxing  room with the texture part of the wall enhances the stainless steel finish on the tub.  The windows balance the room with symmetry and cause the eye to move up to vintage chandelier. Adding a texture rug to this space that has a sparkle of silver in the material creates a cohesive look throughout.

                             
Rustic and charming  bathtub area displays a old world feel with grayish bricks that look old and worn.  The molding and draperies surrounding the room in  a touch of modern.  Love the  display/ storage area above the  draperies. Pops of gold enhances the room to look glamorous and unique.

        I just love how black can enhance any space. The black floor  and the bathtub give the illusion of the tub floating in the middle of the room.  Love, Love, Love the wall covering with the vertical  stripe pattern with a damask pattern. The idea of the black frames against the red wallpaper  pops the walls out anymore.

          I thought this bath/shower idea was very brilliant! Instead of a simple boring surround for a bathtub combo here is one created  to look like a piece of furniture. The ideas are endless and you can create anything to a tub, shower head, or vanity for a bathroom. I will keep that in mind when I start to remodel bathrooms. :)

Jump Aboard the Island!

 
Kitchen islands are a must have in a kitchen. They help add extra seating, storage, ans space for appliances. We just finished making designing our kitchen project and  having a unique island idea can help any kitchen look glamorous. Here are some items that can be done for your kitchen islands.

         In this elaborate island there is a unique storage area. The storage is for dog food. All you do is grab the handle and open it and you can scoop any of your dogs favorite food. this would also be a great idea for cereal for a house full of kids.

      This island is just a simple one with a protruding rounded island. At fist I thought it was a actual table. The island creates a floating effect and a crisp clean area to have drinks.

 
            I love this slim island! The detail of the countertop and how it curves on the sides adds an interesting focal point. When I think of a kitchen Island I think of  bulky and big. In this one it is simple and sleek to keep the space modern.
 
          An another unique way to add seating to an island would to add a banquet. A banquet is  simply just built in seating. This would be great for a family that entertains alot.

           Here is a interesting way to display your accessories that have been collective through out your life. It is very symmetrical with the storage on each side and the columns  to add a architectural detail. Glamorous way to dress up any kitchen space.
