Lighting is my challenge. You have helped to bring my thoughts together on what I need for the lighting and an idea for a splash of color! Thanks!

hey admin,
so im looking into remodeling my bathroom and okay so i live in a townhouse so the bathroom is about the size thats in this picture and the picture of the bathroom i want is pretty relate-able to this one except i wanted the sort of beige-ish color tile. So i was just wondering how much did it approximately cost you for just the tiling--(the walk-in shower and tiling for the floors)
btw the bathroom looks great :)

I would like to have a closet that nice but since it is a walk-in closet it won't be possible for me any time soon. Besides the size of my closet, it accumulates dirt and dust especially if I don't go through my clothes every month. I see spider webs and things that shouldn't be there. Lastly, I always complain on how my closet doors squeak every time I close/open them. Grease doesn't work. Any suggestions?

It is simple and very elegant, it's like a bathroom for a hotel or a very nice restaurant. Why is it called a Powder Bath and are those lighting fixtures too dim for a bathroom?

No line at Starbucks, plenty of seating for lunch and a 5
minute queue for a taxi…oh wait…no people!
I too have been attending KBIS for nearly 25 years and this had to be
the worst! Other than bumping into a few
old friends, the show was a complete waste of time and money for me. What if they put on a KBIS and nobody
came? KBIS/2013

Very good points on clearance. I was interviewed by Kitchen & Bath Design News a few years back on an article featuring “When incorporating Universal Design, I typically begin by analyzing how my client likes to work in the kitchen: considering appliances needs, material selections, counter surface needs and prioritized storage needs.
After we establish everything the customer wants, we then go over the fundamentals of Universal Design, including cabinet configurations, counter space for food prep and clean up. After all of these considerations are made, we often have to break it to the client that their dream island, or 60" pro range, may not be their best choice after considering their space. We have to explain the importance of Universal Design, showing them why the 36" walk aisles or the minimum 42" work aisles are necessary.
Sometimes a simple rearrangement of two appliances can open up a whole world of possibilities, so designers have to be on their toes and think outside the box, so to speak.”

I love closets. I've struggled selling them, though. It's constantly a "later" issue for them (not as sexy as kitchen/media/built-ins, FP, etc, I suppose) and when we ultimately get to the design, clients are often over-budget and leave a plan they love with a "maybe just a closet rod and divider for now."

I try and prep them, but we do lot's of whole-house remodels and this is usually an afterthought... that will in time affect them every day.

As far as the Cherry Kitchen goes I agree the flooring and cabinets are too close in color so they are running together. i don't know why the higher counter would be black. I understand the reason for all of the drawers but here we see how it is distracting to the eye with too much of the same thing. The hanging light in the ceiling is something I would not have done. The mural above the cooktop seems to have too many pieces in it and having the backsplash tile the same color as the hood has created the same problem as the floor and the cabinets running together. I am sure the owner loves it. I just think that a designer could have made some different shade variations to make the items pop instead of running together.

Thanks Brandon, appreciate it! And good seeing you last week. Yes, KBIS and MSI are absolutely interested in constructive criticism. We worked hard to continue making improvements this year and are already planning for next. It would be great to set
up a call or conversation with everyone here and more. We've been discussing the idea of a focus group of sorts and will be in touch so we can hear all feedback and ideas, it's important to us. I'll be in touch asap!

Regional, smaller shows, I agree. Designers/Dealers are reluctant to leave the showroom for more than a day. On the east coast, it would be nice to hit NYC, Philly, Baltimore, etc.. NYC Architectural Digest show was a huge success and many people traveled from 30 miles+ to see this show because they could drive.

Now I am not easily impressed either to be honest but this partnership is a blinding success. And the silgranite sink, by the way -talk about performance! Absolute perfection in details.

I agree, I've been looking to showcase our new product line for the last two years, but it's a little expensive and to far to travel from OKC. I haven't attended, but it sounds like it's good that I haven't. Though I am heavily considering showing in New Orleans, it's closer and I think quite a few people will attend being that its in such a fun city. See our products online and let me know if you think that we would be a good fit for the show. We're the industry's largest manufacturer of decorative iron brackets. I would say that about 70% of our sales go towards countertop support. So I would think that this show would be the right venue for us. I guess we'll find out.
