This was a fan favorite among the interior designers I was with .... these "free standing (3 sided) tubs" they have a flat backside ! Do you know how great this is ? This is perfect for those installations where you want the look of a freestanding tub but you need to put up against the wall for space saving situations or simply the aesthetic of the room . They come in Traditional , Transitional and Contemporary styles.<br />

Just because you have a small bathroom to renovate doesn't mean you can't have luxurious amenities... Like a Mr. Steam unit , in fact .... You SHOULD incorporate them to make up for the lack of space. Here is one of our projects where we didn't let the size of the bathroom hold us back from creating a Spa retreat for our client. Adding a <a href="http://www.mrsteam.com/">Mr. Steam</a> unit with aroma therapy was as must. It is not only a health benefit , it also instantly increases the equity of your home , so it's a win, win. Not to mention the luxury of having a "spa" at home.<br />

Having a steam unit is one thing.... having aromatherapy with it is even better .... BUT Mr. Steam units don't Stop there.... You can also have Chroma Therapy system and also add Audio system . Best part is you can control from your smart phones. We just finished a project using the Audio System with Mr.Steam in shower ceiling speakers ( which we will be photographing soon) and our client can not get enough of their new bathroom. We have given them a fully customized home sanctuary . As Mr. Steam describes on their <a href="http://www.mrsteam.com/history-of-steam-bathing">website </a>and gets into the history of it ....<span style="color: #45818e;"> <span style="font-size: small;">"<a href="http://www.mrsteam.com/history-of-steam-bathing">Our contemporary need to find a tranquil escape in steam has extensive and long-standing roots"</a></span></span><span style="font-size: small;">.</span> With latest the technology and advancements in plumbing , it is now so much more readily available to us ... literally at our fingertips. <br />

<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="color: #999999;">Mr. Steam is one the sponsors for Modenus BlogtourKBIS Orlando . I was very thankful to be included in this sponsored trip . I have always been a BIG Fan of their product and have been using it since I started in the design industry 20 something years ago . So I write this blogpost from first hand experience because I LOVE their product , NOT because they are a sponsor. I have spec'd their product many, many times and all my clients have been very pleased. I LOVE everything they do and stand for . WE LOVE Mr. Steam, because they make us all FEEL GOOD ! </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">.........Now Getting back to my story about Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress , the imagineers on this attraction take us on a journey thru time in a series of vignettes /sets which show an American Family in their home ( thru animatronics) while noting the changes in innovations and technology as the carousel rotates around the stage and they move onto different eras all while the song<b> "<i>It's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow "</i></b> plays from scene to scene</span>.<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">In the last scene the family is shown in the Kitchen and Living room Mom
is at the computer , kids and Grandma on video games with VR, Dad is cooking in a
modern Kitchen with voice activated wall ovens.....the
Future is push button living and voice activated . </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Well that's exactly where we are now my friends.... Voice activated lighting controls, appliances, TV , phones and all sorts of technological advancements. When I saw this attraction for the first time a few years ago, I remember thinking to myself " that would be so cool if Appliances were voice activated" But I didn't think technology would be moving so quickly in this direction with appliances , BUT I stand corrected, technology is moving fast in the Kitchen industry as well . SO excited about the future in Kitchen appliances. I'm getting ready to re-do my own Kitchen soon and excited to incorporate some new innovated products from these wonderful brands who are so forward thinking. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">WHAT WILL THEY THINK OF NEXT ????</span><br />

<span style="color: #674ea7;">Lastly , I'd like to mention how gracious our Sponsor was ... Not only did Thermador (along with other sponsors including KBIS) paid for flights, hotel accommodations, some meals, for this KBIS trip I was on with 24+ other influential interior designers and bloggers from around the world, THEY also threw an EPIC party! The food stations were insane! SO good! Full hosted bar and THE Entertainment.... ONE REPUBLIC! It was THE Party to be at. Had SOO much fun ! Thank you Thermador for always taking it up a notch ! Excited to have been there for the unveiling of all your products. </span></div>

A lot of my clients come to me with an idea of what they want their spaces to look like , they describe the style , the colors, materials , but they rarely mention the moldings and the treatments of the walls or ceilings.... that's usually my job to show them and educate them on what makes a finished interior space. We interior designers layer spaces . We layer materials , textures, color and MOLDINGS. Moldings is a BIG factor in the layering process, it adds depth and dimension. It gives spaces their architectural landscape and makes the room /space complete.</div>

Here's an example of how we used molding in one of our projects. The Pasadena Showcase house (below) we did the Cloakroom and Lavatory where the walls were plain, lacked any architectural style and the proportions/ scale was off . By adding molding we solved both these issues. </div>

So the next time you start an interior design project , don't overlook using moldings. It can be done simple or over the top , what ever your preference . That layer is not just an added detail, it is a foundation for great design. Give your space the architectural detail it deserves. </div>

Now this Kitchen is Open and bright . Accents of brass is classic , not a fad or trend. Many clients are afraid to do it ... thinking it's just a trend . But it stays timeless when mixed with other metals.<br />
White Kitchens are always great especially when you introduce a contrast color for the island . <br />
<br />
Don't forget the 5th wall ... the Ceiling ! We added molding to the ceiling to give it some architectural detailing . Speaking of architectural detailing... we also arched some doorways and raised the ceiling . Kitchens design is not just pretty materials and nice appliances , it begins with a good space plan , finding clever ways to borrow space from other rooms and make it all functional . The aesthetic is always in the back of my mind , but I truly believe form follows function.

Happy Monday !</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hope your weekend was as inspiring as mine. If you missed the Sunset Idea House here are some photos I took during my visit. House designed by DISC Interiors. I found the details in this home to be very refreshing, it was unlike other show houses I've been to , where I feel " been there/ done that". This house was truly inspiring. Bravo to the collaboration of talented designers, architects, craftsmen , tradesmen involved. It was nicely done. Nothing over the top, just simple modern sensibilities.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
....and then to top off the weekend....I went to see Frank Lloyd Wrights Ennis House - the largest of Wrights four Los Angeles-area "textile block" houses .</div>

Where do you find your inspiration?</div>

The home has a unique history , including the fact that Frank Lloyd Wright was fired from the project 10 months after construction began and didn't get to complete the interior as he had envisioned. Then was hired by the subsequent owners where he added a pool and billiards room.</div>

I LOVE a good Kitchen Reno. Especially when you are dealing with a VERY old layout! In today's day and age - Open floor plans are very popular , especially in the kitchen and dining areas. They are functional , inviting and they let light flow from room to room. As you can see in this space below (in the before image) the Kitchen was very Dark and<br />
Dated. <br />

This Newly added powder bathroom would NOT be the same had we NOT done the Rust Orange wainscot. Although it is small it adds depth and texture to the space. Do not be afraid to add wainscot to small spaces, NO it will NOT look too small, it will make the space SO much more interesting.<br />

This small, dated, and cramped kitchen nestled in the beautiful hills of Silverlake was in dire need of help. It was not functional, nor did it fit the style of rest of the home, a very cute mid century modern house.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
So a renovation was in order.<br />
<br />
Our goal was to make the kitchen appear bigger using same footprint by utilizing the space better and bringing in more light.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
It's not always necessary to bust out a wall to make a kitchen bigger.<br />
<br />
Utilizing vertical space it <i>key</i> in smaller spaces like this one. In this case we had to remove the soffits. Always do exploratory holes to see what is behind them before you go tearing anything out. There was nothing behind our clients soffit's so out they went.<br />
<br />
Taking out the soffit not only opens up the space and makes it feel bigger, but it also allows you to take the cabinets higher, which draws your eye up , making space feel bigger.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
The nature inspired color palette we chose here also helps space feel more open and welcoming. Connecting the indoor to the outdoor expands a space.</div>

Putting in a laminated glass door also helps bring more light into space, making space feel bigger too. </div>

I took an awesome family road trip this summer, ( Los Angeles, California to Amarillo, Texas ) stopping along some really fun spots, including driving on stretches of route 66 in Arizona and New Mexico too. I posted photos along the way on <span style="color: #990000;"><a href="http://instagram.com/emiinteriordesign"><i><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><u>INSTAGRAM</u></span></i>.</a>.</span>..you should check them out....fun photos. </div>

Does this look familiar? Well if you have seen Cars the Disney movie or been to Disney's California Adventure (New Cars Land - "Cadillac Range") you've seen the mountains that look like tailfins of Cadillacs, well this is where the Disney Imagineers got their inspiration from. </div>

Thank goodness my husband likes to do a lot of research before we take vacations....because this is one spot I really would not have wanted to miss. It was inspirational . As an artist, I really appreciated the crazy over the top idea of buried Cadillacs, I especially love the fact that this is now a public art installation. This colorful sculpture installation is on an open field (property owned by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanley_Marsh_3">Stanley Marsh 3</a>) off the 1-40 Hwy (hard to really make out from afar , so it's a must you get out and walk up to see these up close). Visitors are encouraged to stop by bring their own spray paint cans and spray paint their own designs. My kids had a blast too unleashing their inner artists....tagging on these Cadillacs . If you are ever near Amarillo , Texas, I would say it's worth your time to stop by and unleash your inner artist too.</div>

Believe it or not, this avant-garde installation was originally done in 1974 by a group of architects a collective group called <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ant_Farm_(group)">Ant Farm</a>. Since then , this sculpture has been repainted various colors for movies or special events and of course daily changes with visitors who come to do their own masterpieces. Whether you are a car aficionado, an artist, a Disney fanatic or simply love road trips , It is a fun little stop along historic route 66 with a great photo Op.</div>

When Friedemir Poggenpohl founded the company in 1892, he wanted "to make
the kitchen better". 2012 marked the company's 120th anniversary,
making it the world’s oldest kitchen brand. During this time the company set major milestones. In 1950, Poggenpohl was the first kitchen manufacturer to
present the fitted kitchen. Driven by the power to innovate, it was in 1960
that the company launched the first solid-wood kitchen and in 1967 the kitchen
"must": the kitchen island.<br />
<br />
Poggenpohl now offers its customers the largest choice of colors and materials
that has ever been available in the company’s history. This is where Poggenpohl
places emphasis on wooden fronts that give the kitchen a warm and classy look.
The new wooden fronts are available in framed and unframed natural walnut and
natural ash heartwood. These wooden fronts cut a particularly attractive figure
in combination with the latest color shades of "blossom white",
"polar white", "sand", "pebble grey", "sand
grey", "terra" or "black". The new color diversity is
available in the form of direct coating as well as various lacquered finishes.<br />
<br />If you are looking for top of the line functional kitchen cabinets, these timeless beauties are for you. They are innovative and ahead of their time. But don't just take it from me, go to your local showroom and open every drawer , see the fabulous finishes, accessories and fine details yourself. These Kitchens are worth the pretty penny. There's a reason why Poggenpohl has been around for over 120 years! </span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">One of the best things about <a href="http://www.modenus.com/blog/category/blogtour">Modenus' Blogtournola</a> is the connections you make and the products you are introduced to. Sure I knew about <a href="http://www.silestoneusa.com/">Silestone </a>(by Cosentino) and have used them several times on projects, But I didn't really <i>know</i> them. I was so impressed by this company. There is so much to love about them. For starters, they are a family owned business , who doesn't love that? They take SO much pride on their products and it shows as they are a world leader in quartz, natural stone, and recycled surfaces. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d;">Una de las mejores cosas de Modenus 'Blogtournola son las conexiones con las empresas de los productos </span><span style="color: #38761d;">que realice</span><span style="color: #38761d;">. Claro que sabía de Silestone (by Cosentino) y los he utilizado varias veces en los proyectos , pero ahora conosco mas de ellos que antes. Estoy muy impresionada por esta empresa.

<span style="color: #38761d;">Por último, Cosentino enseño la nueva superficie muy esperado ultra-compacto, Dekton de Cosentino, en KBIS por primera vez en América del Norte. El nuevo y revolucionario producto, que puede ser utilizado para aplicaciones de arquitectura de interior y al aire libre, es resistente a UV, y viene en gran formato, placas muy finas y se lanzará oficialmente en América del Norte a finales de este año. No se permitió tomar fotos de producto, pero les puedo decir.... es bastante fabuloso! Solo tuve la oportunidad de tomar la foto de los atributos clave :)</span></div>
