We’ve all seen the mix up of vintage and new… adding a bit of 70ies… a bit of antiques…

But have you ever seen it done in a bathroom? The “sideboard-turned-sink” simply rocks!

Completely fell in love with the timeless beauty of Austrian based Decarus furniture.

Surrounded by the Lake Neuchâtel and the Swiss Mountains, the Hotel Palafitte offers 40 pavilions, which of 24 are built on the lake. Each pavilion is equipped with high technology, extraordinary furnishing and has a private terrace. The astonishing atmosphere may be enjoyed in our restaurant “Le Colvert”, capacity 80 seats or our bar with fireplace, both open 7 days a week…

I really like the way this minimalist design bed is given an edge by adding the antique headboard.

After a recent expansion the Sempachersee Golf Club has made it the largest golf club in Switzerland.

The architects of Smolenicky & Partner were responsible for creating the new club house / restaurant building as well as the new maintenance building. While doing so they have managed to create the first of such in Switzerland… not to be considered a “design-handicap”.

Fitbit is a tiny wireless tracker. Clip it on your clothes and find out how much you actually “move it” during a day or as they say it:

Did I get enough exercise today? How many calories did I burn? Am I getting good quality sleep? How many steps and miles did I walk today? The Fitbit Tracker helps you answer these questions.

Fitbit will be available late 2008.
