The Erosion flush shower base by Dna + has a minimalist look that works beautifully in any contemporary style bathroom. This modern shower features installation that’s flush to the floor, offering a seamless step into the shower enclosure. The gentle dip of the shower floor makes us think of the slow wearing away of stone at the constant drip, drip, drip of water – hence its name. And the smooth design of this sophisticated shower is matched by its silky finish, made of EON Solid Surface material available in Pure White matte or glossy, and accented with rich Wenge lattices on either side. A chic little dish (optional) perched to the side of the base is the perfect spot to organize your bathing lotions and potions. More information is available by visiting Dna +.

The Papillon sofa bed by Bonaldo gets a fresh new makeover – honeysuckle pink for 2011. Taking their cue from Pantone’s declaration that Honeysuckle is the color of the year, Bonaldo dresses up Papillon in an exciting, warm pink hue. This famous sofa bed can be folded and moulded into the position of your choice to accommodate sitting, lounging and even sleeping. In its upright position, one can understand Papillon’s name – its shape resembling a butterfly wing. It is equipped with the choice for a variety of covers, including this version in pink, that are easily applicable and washable. This sofa’s simple form yet versatile quality is what makes it so attractive, but we agree that the new pink slip cover adds an exciting element. Visit Bonaldo for more information.
