Introducing Waterworks Kitchen

For more than 30 years Waterworks has been a leader in the bath industry and now the brand is branching out into the kitchen category with the launch of Waterworks Kitchen and a newly opened flagship kitchen showroom in Manhattan. Kitchens were a natural transition for Waterworks since many of the products the company has expertise in designing for the bath could easily be scaled for a kitchen environment.

5 Things I Want to Buy on Cyber Monday

Gah! It’s Cyber Monday! I have a love-hate relationship with days like today. On black Friday I vowed to not go shopping. I didn’t want to stress myself out in the crowds but then I went out to buy holiday gift wrap and some groceries and was seduced by store window signage. I ended up coming home home with bags full of stuff I love but didn’t need from Banana Republic, Mango and Zara. Today, sitting in front of a computer on Cyber Monday is totally tempting.
