Luxurite Gets You A TV For Your Kitchen

luxurite Luxurite Gets You A TV For Your Kitchen

Expect the name Luxurite to always look after your TV needs, be it in the bathroom or say in your kitchen! Well, it’s the latter this time around. Yes, you heard it right. Now, you can enjoy being the proud owner of a flip-down kitchen LCD TV that’s situated in the cooking area of your house. Called the Luxurite Kitchen TV (not much of an innovation there), this wonder will definitely add spice in your life if not in your food, that is.

The LCD TV in reference comes with its very own integrated DVD player and a USB Port and 3-in-1 card reader that will meet your TV needs any time of the day. This one has been decided keeping in mind all your kitchen requirements. Also, you can view your favorite programs in multiple formats such as MP3, AVI, MPG and TXT.

The special hooks keep your TV steady on the wall or even the kitchen cabinet, letting you save up some more space. And its best feature is that you can even handle it with wet hands. Pick your choice from three models — Digital TV, DVB/T-Analogue and ATSC/Analogue and enjoy a TV experience that is supported by technology to enhance weak signals and even reduce noise functions. The VGA makes it look like a laptop or desktop PC.

Swarovski Becomes Your New Spa Companion

swarovski_steam Swarovski Becomes Your New Spa Companion

Though we have said umpteen number  of times that Swarovski Crystals are finding their way in just about everything, we would still like to maintain that there are some high-end luxe products that end up with all the glamour only because these shimmering ices are complementing their whole existence. The Hot spa retreat at the Grand Resort Bag Ragaz in Switzerland is one of them. Well, this spa has been popular but the makers thought of maintaining their customer ship even during the economic slowdown and so decided to give it a Swarovski face-lift.

As a matter of fact, this Hot spa is the first instance when the iconic crystals have been custom made for a steam room. Step into this glorious spa, and you will be dazzled by 300 individual crystals coupled with colored lights donning the walls.

This spa spans some 5,500 square meters and boasts of an impressive rage of beauty and spa facilities for you to pick the right one to suit your needs. There are plenty of aroma cabins, freshwater whirlpools and Roman baths too. But you will be happy to know that the new Swarovski steam room is their very best offer accompanied by a traditional Finnish Sauna, Kneipp Circuit and refreshing Ice Grotto.

Supernova: Luxury Bathroom Fittings Line From Dornbracht

Luxury Bathroom Fittings Line From Dornbracht

If you want to brighten up your bathroom, you do not have to get another light fixed. Simply get yourself the Supernova luxury bathroom fittings line from Dornbracht, which will provide you enough light as it is highly luminous.

Supernova comes with high gloss surfaces that enhance the sculptural effects of the fittings. The angles of the bathroom architecture are reflected by the sharp angles of the fittings. Its linear and geometric designs too contribute to the reflection. The mirroring style has been done very cleverly. It is interesting to note that all water resources in the bathroom are brought together when you look at the central furniture island. The island incorporates the bath, shower and basin all around it. Supernova will shine bright as a star in your bathroom. The name ‘Supernova’ has been thoughtfully given.

Although the fittings look luxurious, there is nothing really great about them. I would rather stick to my current bathroom fittings than to splurge on Supernova. However, there is no information provided regarding the price. Nevertheless, they might be expensive as the fittings are luxurious.

Tango: The World’s Fastest Urban Car

The Worlds Fastest Urban Car

If you ever wanted to buy a small but a fast car, then maybe you should take a look at the “Tango”, the world’s fastest urban car. It’s ultra narrow and can fit in anywhere. So, space is not a problem for you to park the Tango. If you go by its size you might perhaps be disappointed and might underestimate its performance.

Tango is the perfect combination of the speed and agility of a motorcycle with the security and comfort of a high-performance sports car. The best advantage of Tango is, you can easily beat the traffic woes by changing lanes comfortably while you are stuck in a busy traffic. Although it is small, it can securely carry a reasonable amount of cargo. Besides, unlike motorcycle, it is safe, dry, and climate controlled as well.

Another plus point is that in extremely heavy traffic, Tango can travel in 20 seconds the distance that cars travel in 20 minutes. It can fit in a 6-foot half-lane. Tango can accelerate from zero to over 130 mph in one gear. It can also accelerate from zero to 60 mph in about four seconds and touches the standing 1/4 mile in about 12 seconds at over 100 mph. Now this sounds quite unbelievable but nevertheless, it’s true!

Skateboard Ramp House by Archivirus Architecture

the-ramp-house1 Skateboard Ramp House by Archivirus Architecture

We have just discovered a Ramp House created by Archivirus Architecture and Design as a response to the client’s request for a “skateable habitat”. The Ramp House is a project and Athanasia Psaraki is the architect. The dominant aim of this project is to reconsider and redefine the living space. Based on the client’s request, the interior of the house is in curve form.

the-ramp-house2 Skateboard Ramp House by Archivirus Architecture

In an existing three storey building, Athanasia Psaraki attempts to bring a blend of old and new styles. As the dominant material was wood in the original house, thus, a wooden pergola and wooden horizontal louvers have been fixed for the new structure, which connect the old and the new. Interestingly, the house is intended to be a ‘ramp house’ and not a ‘house with a ramp’. Psaraki carefully hides the basic house elements such as, the fireplace and the storage units inside the ramp forms.

The street ambiance of the skate scene is beautifully combined with a home atmosphere with a combination of wood and concrete. While the idea of this house may appeal to the client and the like minded people but it simply doesn’t interest me at all!

Blomus Unveils Seductive Fireplace

vidro-fireplace Blomus Unveils Seductive Fireplace

Summer is fast approaching and you definitely would not want to stay in a hot and humid place would you? You might perhaps have a vacation home in the Alps or in Punta Arenas in South America where it is always freezing. In case you do so, why not get a seductive and stylish fireplace to suit your platinum blonde lifestyle?

Blomus is a German company and they have crated some of the best Fireplaces ever. They have designed and created an exquisite looking fireplace called the Vidro which is made of glass and stainless steel. It costs 9 and can go up to ,174.

I would say, this is one of the cooler fireplaces I have seen in my life. I would at least buy this for the winter. There is nothing better than banter by the fire. Cold wind, warm fire and lovely company make it the best experience a person can ever have in his or her life.

Bookshelf With a Screen!

img4l Bookshelf With a Screen!

Have you ever see things? I mean, see things, and hallucinate things? If you had not, I have visualized my book shelf to be sometimes metamorphing into a display when I wanted. I guess someone had the same idea and the Stuff Your Stuff Theater Set has been unveiled.

The cool product is brought to you by Pottery Barn and it costs 99. It is built well and comes with a screen and also space to hide your books.  This way, you would end up hiding all the books and such unwanted things and when you need, you could get the screen out and play Rock band!

I am sure you would love to watch Rock Band play on your Book Shelf wouldn’t you? I would however hesitate buying this as it costs so much. ,300 is a lot of money, to be spent on a book shelf. If you have that kind of money, you could certainly buy!

$30,000 Bike Needs $10,000 Software!

factor-001 ,000 Bike Needs ,000 Software!

There are certain things that never seem to make any sense to me at all. Take for example this weird and funny Factor 001 training bike. It has been designed by BERU f1 systems and it comes with Formula One racing technology which will make sure you are riding the most advanced bike ever.

It comes with made to measure carbon fiber frame and it comes with built in accelerometers which monitor your expensive bike’s speed, torque levels, and also crank cadence. However do not expect such a wondrous instrument for anything lesser than ,000. The software for this crazily expensive bike will set you back but another ,000.

I am wondering if you really need to spend so much to ride a bike. There was a time when I got my mechanical normal bike for just . It is funny how things change so soon and so quickly! In any case, you could go ahead and buy these weirdly cool bikes if you have the kind of money with you.

An Awesome Storage Device From Users and Makers

fo_ummodules_01 An Awesome Storage Device From Users and Makers

It is always nice to have great storage spaces which conform to your needs and also make space for everything the way they need to be stored. The UM Modules has been designed by Colgate Searle and it is an awesome storage and display module. With the help of this module you not only can store, but you can also display ware, and stuff.

You can keep photographs, books, shoes and what not! Interior sleeves are very flexible and users can add, remove as they please. UM means Users & Makers. They used blank frames and the users can go ahead and use it the way they want.

It is actually being touted as the open source of furniture. They look so beautiful that I am already tempted to buy them. In my opinion, you should contact the designers and get them as soon as possible as that would help you save space, order things around and also show off all your stuff!
