It sounds like an odd, Vegas-y gag: Put two people in a luxury hotel room , and while one reclines on the bed, another is showering mere feet away, enclosed by nothing but a sheet of glass. But, as any observant world traveler will tell you, the peekaboo shower is officially having a moment, joining outdoor showers and tubs nestled against windows as spots for exhibitionist bathers to let it all hang out. 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge , which opened this spring, has you bathing in full view of the bed. The Fletcher Hotel Amsterdam has a beam-me-up-Scotty- style shower tube in the middle of the room. And the Prince Gallery, Tokyo Kioicho, a Luxury Collection Hotel , which opened last year, features a massive glassed-in shower- bathtub combo visible to the rest of the space—and to the city below. Why the new nudity? “Our goal was to create an environment that frames the hotel’s breathtaking views ,” says Eva Longoria of Madrid’s Rockwell Group, the architecture firm that designed the Pr...

Sign up for eletters today and get the latest how-to from Fine Homebuilding, plus special offers. As Reid Highley wrote in the pages of Fine Homebuilding in 2012 , at its best, an entry door is a condensed reflection of a home’s design, projecting the outward attitude of a house to visitors and passersby. A door can convey an image of formality or playfulness, solidity or lightness, privacy or hospitality. The choices you make about door size, placement, and materials define a personality that sums up the character of the home. For this reason, entry doors are often placeholders in an architect’s drawings until late in the design process, when the character of the home is more fully developed. The first design decisions for a new door include careful consideration of its size and its location in plan. These choices establish the door’s impact on views, privacy, traffic patterns through the house, and the transition from outdoors to indoors. With that in mind, please click the slides...

Photography by: Courtesy of Winter Water Factory Stefanie Lynen and Todd Warnock — shown here in their Brooklyn studio — credit social media for helping grow their business. Lynen focuses on design, while her husband handles day -to-day operations, sales, and marketing. Stefanie Lynen got bitten early by the entrepreneurial bug. As a girl in Germany, she started a "company" with her sister, selling bottles of melted snow gathered from their backyard. They called it " Winter Water Factory ." The business was short-lived (even their parents wouldn't buy the water), but her creative energy was just beginning to flow. Lynen soon learned that she loved to make beautiful things with her hands, from paper chains to knit hats — and she'd easily get carried away. "I could never make just one," she says. About a decade ago, a friend showed Lynen , who started as a freelancer and is now the design director for Martha Stewart Crafts , how to silk-screen,...

Installing do-it-yourself acrylic shower walls can be easy as long as you select the right acrylic shower set . (Tim Carter) I’ve had it with ceramic tile in my shower. It’s hard to clean, and I love the sleek look of some of the modern acrylic shower units . I want to do this job myself, so the installation needs to be DIY-friendly. What’s been your experience with these easy- care shower units ? Would you be kind enough to share some installation tips so I don’t goof this up? — Alice W., Xenia, Ohio I can hear you loud and clear about ceramic tile care . When I was younger, I seemed to have plenty of energy to wrestle with cleaning tile and grout. I did discover years ago that using powdered oxygen bleach made the job easier and less smelly, but I no longer have to deal with cleaning tile because I’ve switched out all the showers in my home to acrylic. I’ ve installed countless acrylic tub and shower units over the years, as I’ve been a master plumber since before I was 30. I...

Design May 31, 2017   Share To create a winning master bath with limited square footage , assess the space, identify the client’s functional, aesthetic and stylistic preferences, and focus on incorporating unique and spectacular design details . authors Ellen Cheever   All too often, designers across the country tell me that, when offered a master bathroom project , the clients’ dream of an adult oasis is limited by the existing bathroom space and their unrealistic budget. While this may be the reality we all face with our “post Great Recession” clientele, let me suggest you not spend your energy complaining…but be energized by the challenge presented to you. Several strategies can help you create an exciting solution for a master bath space that must be completed within the confines of the available square footage . And, while they may not all fit within the client’s budget, these strategies will at least help you justify a recommendation to increase the initial budget! While the...
