Capturing the Great Outdoors

Debra Scott, October 1, 2012
You might not expect to find a Japanese bathhouse nestled in the towering timber forests of northwest Montana. But a Zen sanctuary addition was exactly what a couple of globe-trotting clients- natives of Whitefish, a picture-postcard former logging town rimmed by the Northern Rocky Mountains- wanted for their 15-acre estate. Working on the three-year, 3,500-square-foot project with architecture firm CTA, Envi Design principal Susie Hoffmann used her sense of interior space to create the clean, low-key aesthetic the clients' sought.

Clear as Day

Rebecca Thienes, October 1, 2012
The doors of perception are thrown open with Tape, Monica Armani's redesign of the shower cubicle for Boffi. Instead of a hinge, this door rotates on a pivot that partially cuts into the plane-both inside and outside the brushed stainless steel framing as it opens and closes.

On the Horizon for K&B: Sonia

Sara Pepitone, September 1, 2012
The result of four months of out-of-the-box designing, Fractal is appealingly (not aggressively) asymmetrical, a vanity whose geometric structure repeats at different scales. The asymmetry is 360-degrees, providing a different look based on your perspective - from every angle. More

On the Horizon for K&B: INAX

Sara Pepitone, September 1, 2012
Integrated, in toilet-speak, means bidet capabilities included, a concept devised in 1961 by INAX, now a subsidiary of Japan's largest building material manufacturer, Lixil. Invented for the very practical reason of limited space in most Japanese bathrooms, the integrated has evolved enormously in half a century. More
