New Yorkers will be pleased to know that
the popular GE Monogram appliance brand
has a number of products created specifically
for their needs, including a 30” Fully
Integrated Refrigerator, a 30” Pro Range,
and the Advantium speedcooking oven that
can be installed above a cooktop or below a
countertop for space-limited kitchens. “New
York City kitchens, though just as glamorous
as larger suburban ones, require smaller and
more multi-functional appliances,” says Paula
Cecere, manager of the Monogram Design
Center, where the appliances can be seen.
The 30-inch Fully Integrated
Refrigerator, which seamlessly blends in with
surrounding cabinetry, offers luxury options in
a small footprint. The refrigerator is available
in stainless steel (European or Pro) or custom
panel-ready. The refrigerator has one door,
one freezer drawer and a convertible drawer
that can serve as a refrigerator, freezer, or
wine chiller. The convertible drawer is ideal
for smaller kitchens as one’s storage needs
may change with the season.
Available in Dual Fuel or All-Gas, the
30” Pro range is another popular model
for NYC kitchens, providing performance
features such as fully-extending self-cleaning
oven racks, reversible wok grates, multiple
oven modes – including self-clean, and LED
bullnose lighting. It can be paired with
either a hood or an above-the-cooktop (ATC)
Advantium speedcooking oven. The ATC
Advantium is available–like the built-in
wall ovens – in the Pro or European style,
120V or 240V. It offers not only exceptional
speedcooking capabilities but it can be also
used as a convection, microwave, or warming
oven—four ovens in one.
To see the Advantium, as well as the
convection wall oven and induction cooktop
in action, demonstrations are held three times
a month. The schedule can be seen at www.
monogram.com/mdc.
“People are carefully looking at their
options today,” says Cecere. “GE Monogram
is a great choice for homeowners looking for
luxury appliances in a variety of styles, sizes
and options.”

Most HoMeowNers spend
considerable time choosing everything
for the kitchen, but the paint. The paint
most often considered: the traditional
glossy and durable semi-gloss or gloss
sheen. Sherwin-Williams has changed
all of that with the introduction of the
new Emerald interior and exterior
acrylic latex paints.
“Now your options extend beyond
a glossy finish in a kitchen or bath,”
says Jackie Jordan, director of color
marketing at Sherwin-Williams. “The
ingredients and technology behind
Emerald’s interior paint offers a matte
finish with the necessary durability,
washability and resistance to stain,
mildew and moisture— ideal for
kitchens and baths.”
As a self-priming product available
in a matte, satin or semi-gloss finish,
Emerald has excellent hide, reducing
the number of coats needed, to produce
a smooth final appearance. In addition,
this zero VOC interior coating is tinted
with new ColorCast Ecotoner colorants
which won’t add to the VOC content of
any waterbased coating. The paint’s full
body is maintained even after tinting,
delivering thick, rich coverage.
Jordan advocates the welcoming
look of Emerald’s matte finish,
especially when combined with the
trend of mixed woods for kitchen
cabinetry. “Higher-end kitchens are
trending away from dark cabinetry and
moving towards medium to light tones
finished in beautiful, transparent wash
that lets the wood speak for itself,” she
says. “However, kitchen designers are
also mixing it up a bit by combining
woods—such as a painted lower
cabinet with a stained top cabinet.”
One of the most beautiful colors Jordan
spotted at this year’s Milan Kitchen
& Bath Show: driftwood, a soft and
neutral cabinet color.
Visit the Sherwin-Williams
store located in the Chelsea area of
Manhattan to learn more about Emerald
and to pick up large size Sherwin-
Williams color samples.

your home one Brand: scavolini
From kitchen to the Bath
s c av o l i N i
tHe Most exciting news at the Milan Fair last April was the introduction of
a new Brand dedicated to bath design, Scavolini BLU. This company was born
from the over 50 years’ experience of Scavolini in manufacturing cabinets of
high quality.
Scavolini BLU offers 7 complete collections, from vanities to tubs and
fixtures. Over 200 finishes are available as well as endless designed solutions
for the bath that will fit the smallest to the largest space. Scavolini BLU
incorporates a total look, which comprehends mirrors, light fixtures and
accessories, with the signature of Scavolini. The bathroom is transformed into a
space that will rejuvenate the body and soul, and a new room where one could
express their style.
Starting late this fall 2012, Scavolini Soho Gallery will display a selection
of the collections in dedicated spaces with completed baths set up for your
viewing pleasure.
“Our bathrooms are SPA stylish and functional, which can be tailored for
any need, and the kitchen is the new living room now extending into the TV and
Family Room,” says Daniele Busca, Showroom manager and creative director
of Scavolini SoHo Gallery. Scavolini’s seamless style and functionality now
branches from Kitchen, to living room to bathroom.
Want to experience this new exciting project challenge of design makeover
in your home? Scavolini Soho gallery designers staff will help you to make it
happen. To find out more about Scavolini BLU, please visit bluscavolini.com.

kitcHeNs, existing or newly remodeled, have a universal issue:
sparse and awkwardly placed outlets and lighting resulting
in a clutter of cords and dark spots where there should be
illumination—and virtually no safe place to keep mobile or wireless
devices. Legrand, globally known for its innovations in the design
and functionality of switches, dimmers, and outlets, introduces the
adorne™ collection Under-Cabinet Lighting System, a brand new
solution that gives designers, architects and
homeowners that rare “aha” moment.
The adorne Under-Cabinet Lighting
System takes a cue from the intelligent,
modular power solutions found in contemporary
workspaces. Modular tracks are tucked away
under the kitchen cabinets, and components—
from outlets to lights to cradles—can be easily
swapped out so that anyone can quickly
reconfigure their needs. Components include
puck or linear LED lights, USB and power outlet
modules, and a digital music kit, plus mobile
and tablet cradles.
With the adorne collection, Legrand
has underscored its reputation for taking
residential electrical products to the next
level with innovations such as the no-touch Wave™ Switch—ideal
for cooks with messy hands—and the Touch™ (think iPod®) Switch.
adorne also offers the sleek, bathroom-friendly Pop-Out™ Outlet and
an array of elegant designer-finished wall plates. Legrand’s newest
inspiring and streamlined solution simplifies power and lighting
needs in the room that requires the most flexibility. To discover
more, visit www.adornemyhome.com.

tHe Most discerning of clients have new shopping habits when
it comes to remodeling kitchens. They are more involved with the
kitchen remodeling process and they are more conscious of their
decisions—but, they still want a signature look.
That’s where Eggersmann comes in. The boutique-style
manufacturer of high-end European kitchens offer styles and
heavily textured finishes that aren’t available elsewhere, says
Michael Soltoff, president of Eggersmann USA. “We are relatively
small compared to other larger European name brands,
but that means we offer tremendous flexibility to the
designer,” he says. “We can turn on a dime and react to
market needs.”
Eggersmann’s niche audience requires distinctive
product, no doubt about that. In fact, Eggersmann’s
Silver Touch hot rolled stainless steel finish is so
striking, yet so durable, it was recently one of two
kitchen materials which won a prestigious Good Design
award from The Chicago Athenaeum Museum of
Architecture and Design.
The innovations continue with Eggersmann’s
Phyllite stone, which is now offered on the company’s
popular Unique Collection. The very durable natural
material has a black cleft surface similar to slate with
veining and sparkling mica scattered throughout. In
addition, Eggersmann offers heavily embossed veneers, rough
cross-cut veneers and sandblasted veneers for a distinctive visual
and tactile appeal.
For clients looking at value-priced options, Eggersmann
has introduced a melamine resin wood grain finish. It’s a high-
styled product for a lower cost—an innovative move that is giving
Eggersmann its leading edge in the U.S. contemporary kitchen
design market.

HARDWOOD FLOORING
witH advaNces in engineered wood, BR-111 sees an increase in
wood flooring in the kitchen and bathrooms. “It used to be taboo to
put wood flooring in kitchens and bathrooms,” says Keith Barrette
of BR-111, the renowned exotic flooring manufacturer. “The stability
and proprietary finishes of engineered wood means that these
rooms are now perfect candidates for wood flooring, and also wood
wall treatments.”
BR-111’s new Reserve Collection and Metro Collection
of ultra-wide eight-inch wide by ¾-inch thick planks bring
engineered wood to the next level. The Reserve Collection’s aged
European Oak is thermal-treated to force color to fully penetrate
the veneer. Unlike regular staining, BR-111’s thermal treating
technique changes the color of the wood to make it vibrant and
helps hide scratches or dents that may occur over time.
In high demand is BR-111’s Metro Collection of exotic species
including Brazilian Walnut (Ipe), Brazilian Cherry (Jatoba), Santos
Mahogany and Tigerwood, available in both a smooth Aluminum
Oxide natural finish, as well as a hand-wire brushed natural oil
finish to enhance the wood’s inherent beauty.
Both Reserve and Metro have a four-millimeter-thick wear
layer allowing the wood to be sanded and refinished numerous
times, and a 50-year warranty because of the products’ extreme
durability.
BR-111 has launched a “Refer-a-Friend” online program;
refer a friend to BR-111 and earn money and credits for future
purchases. Visit br111.com for more details.

Not too long ago, it was the norm for customers to buy down
a notch, says David Lyon of Blackman Plumbing Supply. But now,
Blackman’s showrooms are jam-packed and consumer buying habits
have taken a turn for the better. “Our customers are no longer cutting
corners,” says Lyon. “They are spending more on products that they
use on a daily basis in the kitchen and bath.”
As Lyon recently saw first-hand in Europe, there are
products for the everyday kitchen and bath that will soon
merit customer attention. Blackman will have many of these
outstanding products.
For the bath, Duravit introduces a new technology making
it possible to install wood countertops in the bathroom without
any threat from water or humidity damage. Customers can visit
Blackman’s Manhattan, Southampton, and Huntington showrooms
to see Duravit’s Onto collection of exposed wood bath furniture.
One of Lyon’s favorite kitchen products is Grohe’s carbonated
water system. “A cartridge turns a sink faucet into a carbonated
water tap,” he says, adding that this concept eliminates the
numerous plastic bottles carbonated water lovers accumulate.
Blackman Studio Southampton is their new 12,000 sq. ft.
showroom featuring the finest selection of designer plumbing
fixtures, tile, stone & lighting too. With Blackman Outdoor they have
created a new year-round, outdoor lifestyle showroom. Complete
with a working outdoor kitchen featuring luxury appliances from
smokers to grills, refrigeration and stainless steel cabinets, all custom
made. You will see the Blue Moon personal spa from Duravit, a
leading global manufacturer as well as carved stone fire pits, outdoor
showering systems, outdoor fountains and pavers.

“wHeN i FoUNded Artistic Tile over 25 years ago, I knew stone
would always be in a distinct league of its own. One only needs to
look at the streets and structures of places in antiquity to see that
stone is one of the world’s most venerable and resilient materials.
Stone lasts forever. It connects us to history. It is a grand, precious,
permanent material that retains its value. It’s made by the Earth
and unique in its every piece.
In the past few years, the home has changed from a place of
investment to a place of sanctuary. It’s a place to raise a family,
a panacea from the world outside and a place to build memories.
It’s a place to be proud of. Customers frequently come into our
showrooms looking for porcelain in applications for their homes
where stone would be a better choice. In many cases, porcelain is
the right choice over stone—it is often less expensive, has less of
the variance that natural stone offers, and it is virtually impervious
to etching and stains. However, many of the reasons that customers
choose porcelain over stone are simply myths. For example,
homeowners often believe that only porcelain can be maintained in
kitchens and bathrooms. It still gets dirty, it just doesn’t stain; but
nor does stone when properly sealed.
Cubic Zirconium can be lovely, but every bride wants a
diamond. Porcelain gets old, stone ages. We love porcelain when
state-of-the-art technology is used to create something unique, but
fake stone is fake stone. Porcelain has many great applications,
but in the rooms of your home that define who you and your family
are, ain’t nothing like the real thing, baby. At Artistic Tile, we
are committed to using technology to offer intricate designs that
were previously cost prohibitive for stone. To learn more about our
capabilities with stone, in addition to glass, ceramic, porcelain, and
innovative or combined materials, please visit us in person or on our
website, artistictile.com.”

koHler’s New Numi toilet may not include a built-in humidor or
panini maker as comedian Conan O’Brien envisions in his famous
spoof about the new product, but it’s unique enough for Davis
& Warshow to be one of the few companies in the country to
feature the high-tech toilet in its showrooms. Numi’s integrated
bidet, automatic seat and lid raiser, built-in seat warmer and foot
warmer, built-in music player and FM radio are all controlled by a
touch-screen remote control. Besides the comfort features, Numi
has advanced flush technology making this one of the best water
conserving toilets on the market.
Davis & Warshow’s showrooms report that showering systems
are the most important renovation projects because homeowners
infrequently use tubs and whirlpools today. The best bet for
remodeling dollars—electronic showering systems like Kohler’s DTV
and a thermostatic faucet system that lets you adjust temperatures
and simultaneously work multiple sprays and nozzles in the shower.
Don’t forget the still popular steam shower—along with a high-quality
exhaust fan.
Davis & Warshow’s seven award-winning showrooms in the New
York region mean that there’s always guidance and expert advice at
every turn in the tri-state area when it comes to quality kitchen and
bathroom remodeling projects.

B i l o t ta
Bilotta kitcHeNs’ Mamaroneck showroom continues to create
a fresh ambience filled with vignettes in updated color palettes,
says resident designer Peter Bittner. “Grey—in all shades—is the
new white for all surfaces such as cabinets, backsplashes and
countertops for both traditional and contemporary design,” says
Bittner. “There is also an introduction of metal in unexpected places
in the kitchen, such as door inserts and trim.”
Bittner also sees a soaring popularity for modular cooktop
systems. “You can personalize your cooking surface to get the
best of everything,” he says. “Instead of one 36-inch gas cooktop,
for example, people are able to install smaller 15-inch appliances
combining induction, gas and electric—even a steamer—all on one
surface and in one space.”
Another shift in kitchen design is the increased use of LED
lighting. “LED lighting is essential now for under-cabinet and
in-drawer lighting, toe-kicks and floor lighting.” Bittner explains
that LED lighting lasts significantly longer than halogen and it’s
available in warm or cool tones depending on a homeowner’s
needs.
Regardless of kitchen style, one change has streamlined the
kitchen, leaving more space and less clutter. Bittner remembers
a decade ago the necessity of a kitchen desk area to house a
phone, television and file drawer. Needs have shifted, he says,
“Homeowners now have one simple high-tech piece of equipment
that combines television, Internet and electronic filing.” As kitchen
needs continue to evolve, Bilotta carves out the way in traditional
to contemporary designs. To see new displays, please visit one of
Bilotta’s three showrooms, including the Mamaroneck location.

Soapstone_NYS_ad.indd 1 9/6/12 6:32 PM
“tHere are a lot of questions, rumors, myths and misinformation
about the hardness and durability of soapstone. But I will put
these issues to rest with some simple facts about this beautiful,
naturally quarried stone used for countertops and floors and other
architectural applications in kitchens and baths. Soaptsone is the
only stone we work with, it’s our specialty, so we are very serious
about the quality of our products. We are a nationwide distributor
with the largest collection of soapstone available in the United
States imported from Brazil and India.
Soapstone has veining, much like marbles, and distinctive
markings which mineral oil or wax treatments often bring out and
highlight. Although soft, soapstone is a very dense (non-porous)
stone, more so than marble, slate, limestone and even granite
which has a propensity to soil. Soapstone is impenetrable so it
will not stain, no liquid can permeate its surface and that is why
it is a widely popular material used in chemistry lab countertops
and acid rooms.
What we manufacture and import at M. Teixeira Soapstone
has a hardness which makes the material completely suitable for
architectural applications. What happens if soapstone is scratched?
Scratches can be easily sanded out with sandpaper, and a dab of
mineral oil or soapstone wax will hide it.
We quarry our soapstone, cut and polish (hone) the slabs,
export, import, fabricate custom soapstone products, and install it.
We also custom-cut to size and ship slabs for self-fabrication. We
take pride in seeing the raw stone at the quarry, then seeing it take
shape in our client’s homes.”

We design and install our modular furniture to fit

New Yorkers have everything but space, and after over twenty
years of modular system installations in Manhattan, techlineStudio’s
motto remains “furniture that fits,” says Gavin Bromell, architect
and company owner. “While we are offering an unprecedented
range of material and finish options, they are being deployed in ever
smaller spaces.”
In addition to an expanding demand for space-efficient
design strategies, Gavin is seeing a return to the more modest
kitchen design goals he encountered when technlineStudio was
launched over two decades ago. “It seems that people are realizing
the limitations of trendier styles and are, again, seeking a more
timelessly modern design,” he says. “The main difference now is that
clients have broadened their perception of value to include simplicity
and honesty of materials.”
There’s also an increasing interest in environmentally sound
solutions. “Our newest line of cabinetry, BREATH, is made from
renewable bamboo veneers on formaldehyde free substrates. When
used with countertops of Paperstone, or quartz with recycled
content, these cabinets are both beautiful and functional,” he adds.
Newer options from techlineStudio include metal cabinet door
frames by Elements in six different profiles. Each profile accepts
a wide range of insert materials, ranging from textured glass to

Lumicor and Parapan acrylics. Another popular option techlineStudio
offers is high gloss thermofoil fronts, which are a very cost effective
and environmentally kinder alternative to high gloss lacquer.

cabinetry solutions for home offices, Murphy bed and entertainment
units, libraries, children’s bedrooms, and of course, pantries, bar
areas, and kitchens.

UsiNG ModerN technology in bathroom remodels makes it
possible to conserve up to 70 percent of the water typically used
in older versions of plumbing fixtures, says Brian Reichenbach of
Consolidated Plumbing Supply, a Kohler distributor in Westchester
since 1928. But the beauty of these advances is that they offer a
more comfortable experience while reducing annual water costs.
Toilets manufactured before the 1990s used 3.5 gallons, or
more, of water with every flush. But today, most of Kohler’s toilets
including the Cimarron model flush stronger with 1.28 gallons per
flush. “Technology has solved the earlier issues of low-water-use
toilets that did not perform as well,” says Reichenbach, who adds
that based on a household of four, these newer toilets can save
homeowners up to 16,500 gallons of water per fixture each year than
the traditional 3.5 gallon models.
Kohler’s Katalyst showerheads intensify the flow of water even
at 2 gallons per minute (gpm). The showerhead’s design maximizes
the flow of water while infusing two liters of air per minute.
Products like Katalyst can save 35 percent in water costs per year.
The Katalyst system is available on many Kohler shower heads.
Kohler’s single-control Toobi faucet delivers a solid pressure of
water at 1.5 gpm. Toobi faucets carry the WaterSense label, which
means its low-flow aerator offers water savings of up to 30 to 45
percent a year over traditional 2.5 gpm faucets. It’s now easier than
ever to choose.

elGot kitcHeN & Bath, a family-owned and well-known
establishment in Manhattan for over 65 years specializing in the
design and installation of New York kitchens and bathrooms,
continues to see a healthier pace in real estate activity which
is positively affecting the remodeling market. While well-priced
residences are selling quickly, other Manhattan residents have
decided to remain in their apartments, choosing to remodel their
spaces so they can enjoy their home while enhancing its value.
“To achieve those goals, New Yorkers are looking for simple
and well-styled remodels for both kitchens and bathrooms,” says
Ellen Elias of Elgot.
Manhattan residents continue to prefer contemporary kitchens
with stainless appliances, says Elias, who has helped limitless
customers complete their renovations.
The most important change Elias has noticed is the continuing
demand to maximize storage space in all parts of the home. “To
benefit from the most organization in your kitchen and bath,
you need help from the experts who know how to configure and
customize cabinetry to fit your specific needs,” says Elias.
Elias says that the trend towards simplicity in design has
changed the way bathrooms are remodeled, as well. Of those who
have homes with more than one bathroom, many New Yorkers are
taking out the bathtub and replacing it with a walk-in shower to
update the space. “Homeowners who prefer tubs are choosing high-
quality models with uncluttered styling,” says Elias.
Please visit Elgot’s showroom to meet with New York’s
remodeling experts and to see the latest innovations in appliances
and cabinetry.

Runtal NYSpaces AD.indd 1 3/22/12 11:35 AM
For Years, Runtal Radiators, known for luxury designer towel
radiators and decorative forced hot-water and steam heating
products, was asked by clients to introduce an electric baseboard
radiator. To commemorate Runtal’s 25th year of manufacturing
product in its Haverhill, Massachusetts factory for the North
American market, it has brought to the architect and design
community a sleek, patent-pending baseboard-style electric radiator.
The Runtal electric baseboard radiator is designed to heat an entire
house that has electric heat, eliminate cold spots in a home and
supplement other heating sources.
There is no other electric baseboard product that
compares with the Runtal product. Runtal’s electric baseboard
has a welded steel construction with a durable powder coat
finish, and the unit gives high output of even radiant heat
while producing a low surface temperature so the radiator is
comfortable to the touch.
The beauty of the Runtal Electric Baseboard is in its detailing.
The unit’s European styling integrates well with any architectural
style or décor. Baseboard panels are available in three-foot to
ten-foot lengths in both 208 and 240 volts. The unit comes in ten
standard Runtal colors and there are over a hundred optional colors
from which to choose, including aluminum and satin nickel, and
white is always in stock.
The Runtal Electric Baseboard’s subtle profile measures 2 ½
inches from the wall, a critical detail for small spaces—especially in
Manhattan—where every inch counts.

caNterBUrY desiGN’s Jim Dove along with Melissa Seibold
and Alison Griffin designed the recent showstopper the “Suite
Retreat Kitchen” at the Glynallyn Mansion in May-2012, Designer
Show house.
Modern Classics is a term that we use to describe an aesthetic
quality that we often produce. People like the peaceful quality of
clean modern lines, but most of our clients live in traditional homes
so it is important for us to acknowledge this. We strive to get the
correct push and pull of colors textures and forms, and once we’ve
gone through the process, the results are quite rewarding.
The color palette and materials of the kitchen are crisp and
clean with various colors and textures. Cabinetry details are subtle
and refined. The walls of the space were purposefully extended to
create a bay for the La Cornue handmade French range. Within the
walls the Sub-Zero refrigerator, food pantry and dish hutch were
recessed. The elegant arch encompasses the dark navy blue range
and adjoins the La Cornue drawer cabinets acting as the centerpiece
of the design. The island is a unique piece of furniture. We used
Danby Marble for the countertop, very classic and timeless material.
However, because it is so thick, and we used a square edge profile,
it had a more modern feel. While we wanted the island to have
light furniture feels, we didn’t want to use large turnings or legs
because we felt that the aesthetic was perhaps too traditional and
expected. Instead, we created large panels with smaller turning
beneath them, with a mirror toe kick that reflects the floor. This gives
the island the optical illusion that it is floating whilst still hiding all of
the plumbing for the sink and Dishwasher.
All of this produces a space that is the perfect combination
and juxtaposition of light and airiness, and cozy warmth––Sleek
sophistication and traditional familiarity.
The space has an open floor to the adjacent living area which
provides a modern living approach….” Come see The LA CORNUE at
our showroom in Morristown.

oN a personal note, Larry Goren, co-owner of Hardware Designs,
has an overwhelming urge to buy American products—from cars
to clothing—whenever possible. On a business note, Goren also
strongly believes in the quality and design of American-made
kitchen and bath wares.
Alongside many of the world’s highest quality luxury
products, Hardware Designs, suppliers of bath, kitchen, and
architectural hardware, and specialty lighting plus interior and
exterior doors and related hardware, carries a number of American
vendors, but as Goren adds, it takes consumer support to keep
manufacturing alive in this country. Goren cites Watermark
Designs in Brooklyn, New York, and Waterstone in Southern
California, as two of Hardware Designs’ leading American vendors
of kitchen and bath products made in the U.S. Watermark Designs,
a 30-year-old manufacturer of luxury decorative plumbing fixtures
and bath accessories, and Waterstone’s high-end faucets, both
remain successful in this economic climate because of its
superior quality products crafted in state-side factories by
dedicated employees.
Understandably, budget constraints can rule a project, but
Goren says that you can get a lot of product for your money
today—even American product. As overseas wages rise, so do the
prices of imports, perhaps leveling the playing field a bit more
than in prior years. That means consumers now have the option of
paying for American quality rather than paying a similar price for
cheaper imported goods often found online or in discount retailers.
The selection at Hardware Designs’ showroom is endless,
as are the functioning displays of sinks, vanities, faucets, hygiene
technologies and lighting solutions. To get a preview, visit the
website for an extensive gallery of ideas.
