Looking for unique ways to spice up your kitchen or bathroom? Here\u2019s a collection of products that will take your remodel to a new level. From the dazzling crystal-studded Satis toilet to futuristic kitchen furniture rivalling the Jetsons’ and pop art wash basins worthy of Claes Oldenburg<\/a>, these furnishings, fixtures and materials are guaranteed to be the star attraction of the house!<\/p>\n

\"Toilet<\/a>
This bespoke plumbing fixture will guarantee a dazzling experience that befits the Throne Room!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Covered with 72,000 Swarovski crystals, this sparkler took Japanese designer Ginza Tanaka over a month to make. The $105,000 creation rounds out our offerings on\u00a0glitzy plumbing fixtures<\/a> of Swarovski encrusted dog baths (which looked positively paltry at $6,995.00!) and semiprecious stone-studded oversized bathtubs.<\/p>\n

The sculptural soaker is the result of an unusual marriage between high art and sanitary ware.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Fl’eau is the brainchild of Joel Roberts who also brought us the Eaux Eaux sink<\/a>. Joel exploited the post-forming ability of sheet Corian to create a soaker that looks like frozen water but is also structurally sound. He certainly has a wicked sense of humor \u2013 the bathtub looks like it\u2019s in a constant state of overflowing when viewed from the sides!<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s an eco-conscious alternative for counters and splashes that is not the same old same old…<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Tired of all the recycled glass that looks ever so similar with color speckles in an opaque substrate? Bio-Glass<\/a>\u00a0by COVERINGS ETC is made from 100% recycled glass that is devoid of colorants or additives and have no cement content. The textured slabs give off a soft, translucent sheen that adds an extra dimension to any counter or backsplash. Available in\u00a0a variety of\u00a0colors, the material can be used for interior and exterior purposes: it\u00a0is stain resistant, frost resistant, chemical resistant and fire resistant.<\/p>\n

Check out this chameleon of cooker hoods \u2013 it can be the focus of your kitchen or part of a disappearing act!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Nuage by Elica is a unique hood that is designed to meet all your aesthetic requirements. The highly customizable hood comes in 2 models: paintable steel or 6 mm plasterboard panels, allowing the product to be finished in paint, tiles, or plasterboard. This is a continuation of the trend to integrate appliances and cabinetry into interior environments as seen in this ghost of a\u00a0sink.<\/a><\/p>\n

Perfect for urbanites, this futuristic cooking pod\u00a0is designed by Xavier Bonte and called The Sky Is The Limit.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In the closed position, this kitchen island\u00a0looks like a jelly bean shaped bar counter.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a>
It slices! It dices! But more importantly, it commands a small footprint \u2013 something city slickers would appreciate!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Opened by remote control, this Swiss Army knife of a cooking island touts an extraction hood with task lighting tucked into the operable cover. Yes but wait there\u2019s more! The base unit houses an induction cooktop, telescoping\u00a0faucet, two sinks and four drawers. Check out this BBC video to see for yourself:<\/p>\n
