A Classic American Bath

The Perfect Bath

'Several weeks ago I published a post on a bath that had good bones but lacked a sense of style or a reflection of its’ owners personal taste. The bath pictured in today’s post was published in THE GREAT AMERICAN HOUSE by Gil Schafer and tells quite a different story. Unlike my comments previously, this bath not only has great bones and detail, but it also reflects a very sophisticated and stylish resident.

It''s sufficiently unusual that it could pass as a quirky moderne-period detail, and should you be fortunate enough to live seaside, it''s a witty expansion of the standard nautical decor-theme.

CTDA's Tiledealer Blog

'By Jeffrey Steele. Like many industries, tile has been through a lot the past five years. Just about anything that could go wrong did, from a mortgage meltdown to a horrific lending environment, from high jobless rates to depressed consumer confidence, from a decline in remodeling work to even bigger plunges in new home starts. But those tile manufacturers, distributors and dealers that survived the tough times are now well positioned to benefit from the improving economic climate heralded by m

'While the tweedy control panel caught my eye, this 1963 vignette more engaged my memory. Growing up, cats were a constant presence in my home, and they—of course—enjoyed All-Access passes to every room, including the kitchen. The above scene is quite familiar to me. But Tappan showed its ignorance [willful or otherwise] of feline nature when claiming kitty''s comfort is due to the quietude of its dishwasher: any cat person knows it''s the warmth of the drying cycle that earns the appliance the

'Yesterday, inspired by an interesting online chat with the design team at GE, I went to my files on concept kitchen appliances. There I rediscovered the Touch&Turn, a project by Dutch designer Menno Kroezen. It''s a simple cooking system to assist blind people in preparing meals. Users orient the handle of the cool-to-the-touch pot to any of the raised dots that ring the induction hotplate; the more dots, the higher the heat.
