Winter time equals bath time at my house! Cold winter days and early darkness beg to be answered with a long soak in a warm bath. While this is more a fantasy than a reality these days, it is fun to daydream. I decided to post photos of some drool worthy bathtubs. No longer are five star hotels and spa's the only ones that can offer these magnificent fixtures, homeowner can have them too!
The first photo is from Sun Rising, a Chinese company. Duravit offers the tub turned fountain in the second picutre. Aqua Prestige is the maker of the vintage tub shown in the third image. The final bathtub is from Stone Forest. Enjoy!

The chair fabric was designed just for this client and then made into yardage just for these chairs!
The living room seating area. The client wanted it elegant and yet relaxed, with the idea of being at a house on the beach.
We added the built-ins and had the paint changed before the homeowner moved in. A cozy seating arrangement and momentos from world travels warm the space.

This beautiful room was designed to be cozy and full. This room is an example of NOT staging to maximize the square footage. Thanks to House Beautiful for the image
This serene room is designed for maximum spaciousness! Notice that you see lots of floor through the legs of the coffee table. Lots of breathing room in this space. Thanks to House Beautiful for the image.
