1st Place Award Winning Bathroom Interior Design
Housing communities around the united stated are full of homes that builders create in order to capitalize on economies of scale. With this comes interiors that are designed with builder basic selections that do not always focus on client’s needs, desires, and functionality. The main objectives for the updated bathroom design are to expand the functionality by introducing Universal Design principals, create a space that stays true to the home’s timeless style, layout proper lighting, and allow for future flexibility as aging occurs.

Tiles of Taiwan
What comes to mind when you think of Taiwan? Maybe it is the Taipei 101 Tower, night market foods such as stinky tofu, lantern festivals, or even their famous pineapple cakes. Tiles are not something that is typically on the top of that list. However, during my recent trip to Taiwan, I was struck by the beauty and intricacy of the tiles I saw throughout the island. From the ornate roof tiles of ancient temples to the colorful mosaic tiles in modern buildings, there was an endless array of patterns and textures to admire.
