Cathleen Newsham, who is the artist we’re featuring on today’s blog, is a glass artist, which makes her near and dear to my heart, just for that alone. I have said several times in writing these blogs that if I had not gone into woodworking first, I undoubtedly would have wanted to pursue glass art as a career.

Sonoma Cast Stone’s whole site is proof again, if proof is needed, that concrete is a wonderful building material. All one needs to transform gray drabness into something spectacular is a little imagination.

It is now possible to put a bit of magic into your own home, a sink without a drain. We often feature minimal European designs on these pages—because I find them so fascinating—but Axolute is the absolute when it comes to minimalism.

I didn’t really meant to spend quite as much time with bathroom design as I did this week, but I tend to run off in tangents, and since I found so much that was of interest to me, I just couldn’t think of a reason to stop writing about what I’d found. But since I stayed in that vein, I thought I would end the week that way, and end it, this time, with a bathroom design that is altogether different.
