Arturo Alvarez is a Spanish lighting company whose products are available throughout Europe and the USA. They design what they call Emotional Light, although I tend to think of it as eminently functional, because of the many ways in which it can be adjusted to give exactly what is wanted for a room.

One of the things I most like about design is, well, design, and I tend to chase that muse wherever it leads, which brings me right back to Allegro Classics because, as it turns out, in addition to having some glorious designs in outdoor furniture, they are actually located in my own California.

What’s next with Delta Faucets is pretty much a constant, namely research and development, but with this stipulation. What they have already developed is just as important to them as what is yet to be.

The kitchen design that Faith Sheridan came up with is really quite extraordinary. What first caught my eye is that it occupies 160 square feet, about the size of the kitchen I have to contend with. And trust me, given a kitchen as small as that, one really does tend to contend with the space.
