By nature, they generally have different visions for both style and budget. One particular couple wanted a high-end, stylish and affordable look that they both would enjoy, so they consulted interior designer Eli Mechlovitz from GlassTileStore. After consultation, Mechlovitz suggested they home decorator with dark-shaded glass tile and mosaics, one of the hottest trends in the interior design industry.
Brown-Glass__Decorators-Home-2
For those unfamiliar with the glass tile trend, it can be described as a more stylish, luxurious decorating option as compared to ceramic tiles. One of the greatest characteristics in glass tile is the uniqueness – it is available in a wide range of colors, textures, shapes, blends and designs. Attempting to meet both their style needs, Mechlovitz recommended brown glass tile, specifically Zen Espresso, an affordable option from GlassTileStore.

The earthy brown blend of Zen Espresso would create a modern and chic space in this kitchen, one masculine and classic enough for the husband, and one eclectic, trendy and unique enough for the wife.After installation, the dark glass tile, surrounded by the airy light cabinetry, provided a warm and luxurious feel for the kitchen. The different shades of brown transformed the previously dull kitchen, and offered an aesthetically pleasing pattern that perfectly united the upper white cabinetry with the lower dark cabinetry. The couple never realized there was a style that could accommodate both their needs so well. Extremely pleased with the results, they asked Mechlovitz back later this month, this time for consultation on their bathroom.

Shelving Knowledge: How to decorate your own home library

whether your home library lacks_decorators home 3
A home library is not something for everyone, but if you do have an inclination towards books or even love collecting the rare ones, then this can really add immensely both to the look of your home decorator and how people view you when they come for a visit.

A home library talks about your personality, shouts about what kind of a person you are and it also ensures that those who walk in, leave with something added to their wisdom. It can make for a great topic of conversation and earn you some great new buddies. Of course, a whole library at home equity rates looks hard to put together, but with these tips, you will find that it is not that hard as you thought.

-Pick the perfect room and devote the required space

The most significant aspect towards building a grand home library is to pick the right room. Obviously, preferable it should have a high ceiling along with space for racks and other accessories. You can of course, devote just a part of a certain room for this purpose, but an entire room that is totally dedicated makes it a lot more wonderful. Also make sure it’s large enough to accommodate your entire book collection and maybe the ones you are going to add in the future.

-Choose the type of shelves that you feel would be apt

You can either go for built-in shelves, racks that are made of wood, separate standings sshelves that occupy more space or the ones that hang from the ceiling. No matter which variety you pick ensure that they all go well with the furnishings you have in the room and are all crafted from wood. Wooden racks give your home library an authentic and original feel that cannot be achieved by other modern materials.

-Colors, shades and usage of materials

Dark and Victorian styled colors are often used in libraries to give them a more antique feeling. The same can be done for your home library. Once again the use of woodwork grained in darker textures helps a great deal in capturing this essence. This will go well with any collection or theme you chose. Such as the French, Spanish or Italian collection. The appeal for such interiors is almost universal.

-Accessorize with rugs, lamps, tables and chairs

Use tables and chairs inside your home library according to the space available and the comfort factor. You can get a bit unconventional and even go for a couch so that you feel more at home decorator. A small television that is put in a closed cabin, a fine rug and an antique lamp will do wonders to the interiors. This though is a matter of individual choice and you can go the way you chose with accessories.

-Use lighting to add to your book collection

Use lighting smartly so that it brings the beauty out of your rare and specially bounded books while it hides those rugged looking old copies of the paperbacks. Your home library can be altered and changed by using lighting in various different patterns. The lighting must be most often soft, ambient and must reflect the studious mood inside.

Apart from all those, one can also add a dash of class with sculptures and plants which will bring life to the home library. Since the walls are already full, it will be such standing decorative that will bring added beauty to your home library. If you are willing to spend a tad bit extra, then you can create your very own favorite library in your own home equity rates.

Contemporary Bathroom Suite from Laufen - new dOt by Wiel Arets

Contemporary Bathroom Suite from Laufen - new dOt by Wiel Arets. laufen-dot-bathroom.jpg. Laufen, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of bathroom ...


Laufen, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of bathroom essentials, has released the new, contemporary Il Bagno Alessi dOt bathroom suite under the ever-creative direction of award-winning architect and designer, Holland’s Wiel Arets. Arets’ contemporary interpretation of the bathroom comes in the form of modern, minimalist, asymmetrical fixtures with straight downward lines, flat surfaces and a sleek, sculptural shape that really stands out in the modern bathroom. Unifying the cool suite, these washbasins, tubs, toilets and bidets feature round dot-like recesses – the signature mark appearing on every piece of this bathroom line.



Says designer Arets of his novel design, “dOt is a collection whose design steps off from the premise that its individual pieces should not distract from the wish to purge the body of impurities. Every component of each item should be in the service of relaxation. It should be clear that the combination of all pieces in the collection proceed from the individual strength of each one, which has its own role to play though without being overbearing. Altogether, it is a well-balanced collection whose aim is to allow its users to enjoy to the full quintessential element our planet has to offer, namely water.” Check out the Il Bagno Alessi dOt bathroom suite with a visit to Laufen.

Apartmens Antuninska - Dubrovnik, private accommodation..Apt IV sleeps (2+1) persons and also undergone a full refurbishment. ... Apartment 3 (One dbl bed, 1 twn sofa bed, liv/kitch, sh, wc. a/c, Safe, ...By Nico Saieh — Filed under: Interiors , Refurbishment , Selected , Chile, Enrique Browne, Residential, Wood


Architects: Enrique Browne y Asociados Arquitectos

Collaborators: Hernán Fontaine, Agustín Infante & Nicolás Saieh
Project year: 2007-2008
Constructed Area: 294 sqm
Contractor: Empresa Constructora Mena e Infante
Photographs: Felipe FontecillaThe

Project is the transformation of a 20 year old apartment in a historicist building. Since it´s located in the 6th floor, it has excellent views to the west guaranteed. The remodeling considered a program different from its original, plus a guest room. This and other reasons influenced in the desire of generate bigger and more integrated spaces.

The possibilities of intervention were very restrictive because: a) It was a requirement to keep the exterior untouched; b) Almost all the walls were of structural reinforced concrete, making it hard to modify and; c) the floor-ceiling height was very low.The proposal integrates and magnifies the spaces as possible.

For example, by unifying the living room and the dining room or by making the bedrooms bigger. The spatial quality and variety is achieved with wooden bands in the ceiling that unite the spaces, hid the beams, illumination and other fittings. These bands descend to the floor in certain doors, connecting the ceiling to the floor. Another descends to the table of the dining room.In the kitchen an inverse treatment was used. A red ceramic band climbs from the floor to the table and stove and it returns to the floor again. The changing natural and artificial light gives variety to spaces. The bathrooms had a special treatment with wood to give them warmth.

Decorating Ideas When Shifting From a Home to Small Apartment

One of the most painful parting experiences of your life comes when you are trying to move from a large home decorator to a small apartment. For those who love the home furnishings furniture that have been so carefully hand-picked for their home equity rates, it becomes tough to leave a few of them out as their lives are revamped and resized. Here are some useful tips that will help make the transition smooth and easy for you.



Pick only what you need and get rid of all the junk

“Why waste them, when you have them?” This is surely the most difficult part as most people have a tendency of holding on to things believing that they will be useful “some day”. But when space becomes a premium you cannot continue to think like that. You will have to almost ruthlessly let go of stuff that has no place in your new apartment.

a garage sale before you move

No one is trying to suggest that you take a big dumpster and throw away all the stuff that you own. Have a garage sale before you move for all the stuff you wish to not really carry along, but would still serve good for others. If you cannot find takers for something that is still in pretty good condition, feel free to donate. It will both help lift your morale and will make packing, moving and home re-decorating a lot easier for you. We are sure the guys at places like Salvation Army will accept such donations.


Bring in furniture that is space-conscious, versatile in use

Multi-tasking is the modern mantra when it comes to furniture collection and once you get around the market, you will be astonished of what you can find in terms of highly flexible and space saving interiors. These might cost you a bit more than the traditional stuff that occupies more space, but they sure will be great as long term investments. Think about shifting to a hide-a-bed couch or even a Murphy Bed that folds up neatly into the wall and provides shelve space during daytime. This is just the tip of the iceberg. You can find folding tables, chairs, hanging beds and even folding bathrooms. Product designers out there are working overtime just for you!

Pick a single theme and use get the arrangement right

This obviously goes for every place that you live in, but it’s more important when you are moving from a home equity rates to a small apartment. One will have to change their lifestyle and designing ways when moving from a home decorator to an apartment as the new place has comparatively less room - hence a multitude of variations will be hard to portray in such a small area. Sticking to a single running theme and intelligent use of lighting along with arranging furniture collection in a non-cluttered manner will help immensely in accentuating the apartment’s beauty.


Use the walls as a way to store stuff

Unless the walls in your apartment are too thin and weak, you can always hang something on them. Its a extra space storage option that most people overlook. Remember that using the walls intelligently will create more room and by hanging stuff up, you will add your own unique flavor to the space around.Moving from a home equity rates to a small apartment is a conundrum that most people face in their lives these days and while it appears like a challenging task, a clear mind, un-cluttered design and willingness to invest in ergonomic and versatile furniture can help shape up your new apartment as good as your old home equity rates, or maybe even better.
