HELLO SWISS CROSS

I have been looking for bathroom cabinets without mirrors and I came across some cool ones with the Swiss cross graphic. This inspired me to see what other “cross” bathroom items can be found. I found 2 great tiles: one from Ann Sacks and one from Alloy Design. I also found a sweet fabric, that would be great for a shower curtain, as well as a burlap basket that could be used for extra towels, tp rolls or even magazines. Love them!

WHITE TILED WALLS

I could post 50 photos of white tiled bathrooms I like. White, rectangular tile in my opinion is one of the most versatile materials. First of all the sizes and proportions are endless, orientation and pattern yet give more opportunity to play. White tiles look glorious with wood finishes, with concrete, with brick walls. They work in industrial, raw spaces and finished, detailed baths. The best part is that they do not have to cost a lot. I have seen lovely white tiles for as low as $2.50 per square foot.

BOLD TEXTURES IN BLACK AND WHITE

Since we have been talking about black and white lately, here is yet another way to explore the territory. I admired these two textures at the Ann Sacks showroom in Flatiron last Thursday during a launch party of the new sister magazine of New York Spaces called  The Goods. The Goods did not hold much of my attention but these tiles did.
