WHAT'S NEW . . .
Thank you for a wonderful year. We are excited to see what 2019 brings. We do know one thing for sure, 2019 means expansion. Keep an eye out for our expanded showroom which will include plumbing and hardware!

This month we are here to talk about a couple different things you can do to your spaces to enhance your spirit. Let us help you create fresh, purposeful environments similar to that of a hotel. There are several well thought out aspects of a hotel room that you can bring into your own home.

Harmonious and natural flowing tile can make a world of difference in creating a space that has spirit. That's where
GBI Tile and Stone
comes in. Their Stellar tile brings a stone look, without the maintenance of natural limestone. It is rectified porcelain reinterpreted from a classic dense limestone. Carrying a traditional neutral style, this tile can go into any room and add a timeless feel. We think this is perfect for making your bathroom into a purposeful environment.

CALIFORNIA FAUCETS
Zero Drain
|
From the company that describes their company culture simply as "yes" comes the first drain that pops down. Let us introduce you to the
ZeroDrain
. This drain is the revolutionary new, patented sink drain from California Faucets. In the open position, the stopper is level with sink, resulting in a superior “zero clearance” design. Sleek and modern, ZeroDrain is easier to install and service compared to standard pop up drains which saves significant time and money. This beautiful drain comes in 30+ artisan finishes. This drain is the new standard in sink drains.

Lighting, it's huge. Whether it's natural light or artificial, it can change the mood of a room in an instant. Here are some ideas to create that ambiance.
|

|
Lighting is so important when designing a bedroom with space and spirit in mind. Lighting can make a room feel larger and can make a big difference in mood and spirit. Both natural light and artificial light can contribute to this, but in this case we are talking about bedside lighting. Putting bedside sconces in a bedroom, especially, can bring this feeling about. CTO carries several that are both timeless and contemporary. Personally, we like the sleek design of the Heron, but we will let you decide.

First impressions matter
First impressions are important, especially in small spaces that need to be as functional and effective as possible. Thin-slicing is when you make judgement about something in as little as five seconds and when a guest comes into your home this is exactly what they are doing. So, let's dive in to designing your guest bedroom to feel like a 5 star hotel room.

Guest bedroom retreat
...when too much is just too much
|
Quality over quantity is essential when we are talking about a small space. If your guest is familiar with what a luxury hotel is like, they should feel that same feeling when they walk into your guest bedroom. Aesthetics are the key to your guests heart - I think the saying goes; look good feel good, right? They are looking at everything with an extra keen eye, and feeling everything. When you put quality over quantity in your space you are going to provide them with the sense of luxury without even having to try too hard. Investing in quality materials can make any room feel luxurious. We talk more about this in the blog this month, go check it out!

Guest bedroom retreat
...serenity and relaxation
|
|
|
When someone is traveling and staying somewhere that isn't their own home, whether is a hotel or a home, they seek relaxation. Your guest bedroom should be designed with that in mind. This includes keeping the room simple and free of clutter and "stuff". Avoiding an abundance of stuff will provide your guest with more room for their belongings making them feel more at home in a space that isn't. Make sure you are providing them with the simple comforts of home while giving them a space that allows them to relax. Things like lighting and wall color can make a huge difference in this. To read more about lighting in your guest bedroom check out our blog.
