...on Saturday. The set shown above is smart, with both open and closed storage, ample countertop space, matching shelves and even a small glass shelf on the mirror. Not a wasted inch.

We're excited to be installing a Duravit Fogo sink/vanity set in our tiny guest bath. It was one of the few options we found that had storage, looked awesome, and would fit in our miniscule footprint. Plan on a lengthy wait, 10-12 weeks, for delivery.

so much to see there!
Sensory Overload- to the Max!!
I spent most of Sunday there-
and didn't even make it thru the whole other half!

Hard to say if any "trends" stood out- lots of "green" stuff, but,...... the same manufacturer of a line of "green" bamboo countertops, was offering his beautiful "EndGrain" Teak Butcherblock CounterTops, direct from one of the most horrible Military Dictatorships in the world- Burma/Myamar!!!..

The other "trend" if you could call it that-was MUCH more interesting mosaics - patterns similar to the geometric patterns of Morocco, and Algeria, but more subtle color-ways......and less "busy" patterning.

I also noticed waaaaaayyyyy too many knob/pull displays, and waaaayyy to many Vessel Sink displays- 2 "trends" that I predict will end very soon (I'm referring to the Branch/acorn/seashell pulls/knobs- and the colored glass bowl vessel sinks)

Vitraform has some very handsome sink pedestals out again this year- one as a beautiful cylinder, illuminated within, making the translucent volume look pretty impressive!
