Natural Stone Bathtub is an interesting bathtub designed by Stone Forest. They create hand carved granite sculptures which combine the elegant simplicity of Japanese style with contemporary design. Since each piece is hand carved using hammer and chisel, the individual character of the rock as well as the inspiration of the stonecutter lend each sculpture a unique quality. In a world of impermanence, the timelessness of hand carved granite can bring a suggestion of eternity to your home or garden. - Thanks for this suggestion to Nathan Sheets

Residence Klosterneuburg is a beautiful project designed by Project A01 and is situated in a small town near Vienna.

The site is situated on a slope overlooking the whole valley. The base of the building roughly follows the incline of the slope and is slightly terraced. In keeping with this concept, the ground floor consists of several levels also following the downward slope. These levels divide the lavish loft-like living space into various functional areas, such as the fireplace and the lounge area. The kitchen as well as the dining area- and breakfast terrace are likewise connected to the main living space. Various patios and terraces, as well as a swimming pool, are located around the building and create a seamless connection between the living space indoors and the landscape outdoors. A cantilevered structure is located above the ground floor and houses the private rooms. The steel columns are reduced to a minimum and follow the structural system. A gallery provides access to the library, the guest quarters and the children’s rooms. The master bedroom is located on a further level, half a floor above. There is also a separate bathroom and a walk-in wardrobe. The rooftop terrace offers a grand view over the green valley. The surfaces on the ground floor are made of stone and wood, whereas the upper level has been given a special coating, creating a smooth white box. The garage and the technical rooms, as well as the fitness room, are located in the basement. An underwater window in the fitness room creates interesting insights and lighting situations in the basement.

Tufty Time Sofa is designed by Patricia Urquiola and this seating collection of traditional sofas, corner sofas and islands is consumed by tufting to the point that they seem to be composed of discrete cubes. The Tufty-time consists of various modules made of large-scale square tufts which can be combined in different ways to form a variety of configurations. The large depth of the sofa seat and its soft features make it extremely relaxing!

Wegner Shell Chair was designed by Danish modernist designer Hans Wegner. A simple and stilysh design, that invites you to take a seat. Originally produced in 1963, it was discontinued after a few limited series. In 1997, production on the chair was re-launched and became a hit with the public. Crafted from solid oak with a lacquer finish, it has a padded seat and back covered in a suede-like fabric. The chair is quite expensive ( $2,175.00 ), but I’m sure that some people can afford to spend so much money on a chair. - Via - Style-files
