No matter where you live, enjoying the great outdoors is a good way to spend your leisure time. Furniture Fashion has shown our readers some outstanding patio furniture that will no doubt make the leisure times much more fun, and here is another great find. The folks at D'firo Designs have added a new twist on the otherwise typical patio umbrellas we use to keep us cool and out of direct sunlight. The Vizor has a unique oblong shape that puts you in the shade as the suns position changes, unlike the typical round umbrellas that offer protection from over head sunlight. In addition a rope and pulley free system allows you to open the Vizor in an "easy, effortless, and efficient manner". The signature handle turns a patented internal extension-retraction mechanism, allowing the Vizor's longest rib to clear your table in a closed position, keeping the handle easily accessible. The internal components are durable, smoothly operating, and will provide years of maintenance-free operation. The Vizor shade system offers maximum shade with 9', 11', and 16' foot octagonal options as well as tilting and cantilever features that allow for convenient positioning. Available from Ultimate Shade Alternatives
When Ludovica and Roberto Palomba have added their architectural and design skills to a line of products the results will be simply awesome. Kos is among the list of Italian based companies that have benefited from their stunning work and here are their modern steam showers and saunas to prove it. Beautiful in design and functional in operation, the Kosmic 1 and 2 series and the Atollo steam shower saunas would be great to look at even if they did not caress your body and soul with nurturing elements. The three saunas here are distinctly different in size how ever similar in design hosting light, steam, and shower head options including over head as well as side spray systems for a most enjoyable experience. Kos also has an innovative series of bath tubs and whirlpools with an equally progressive design to act as the perfect compliment to their saunas.
When it comes to dramatic and bold lines backed by equally innovative quality and construction, Arketipo excels in the field. The Arketipo collection is geared mostly for the European market where their modern and contemporary Italian sofas styles are greatly appreciated. One of my favorite sectional sofas is the "Must" by designer Carlo Bimbi e Adriano Piazzesi which offers a multitude of components so you create a seating arrangement to fit your room and requirements. The striking feature of this seating system is the special wedge shape of the elements that is also equipped with a clever functional backrest adjustment to change the seat depth for optimal comfort. The scale of the Must is very light thanks to a thin linear construction and minimalist foot. Arketipo also has a stunning collection of chairs, beds and furniture accessories for the connoisseur of fine modern furniture Italian style.

Furniture Fashion has reviewed some really upbeat modern furniture from the fast growing BoConcept collection that fits well in a style conscious contemporary decor. Here is the Amari round dining table in black stained oak that is impressive, simplistic, and fun to look at. It is often true that a round dining table offers a better solution to smaller space requirements, but round tables also have room for more seating than a rectangular or square dining table. As you can see, the Amari relies on a cone shaped center pedestal and is free of legs that get in the way of dinner guests. BoConcept has a full range of dining tables in wood and glass, and all the sideboards and dining chairs to complete your vision of the perfect dining room in the freshest modern styles of today. H74½ X D153cm. Bucket pendant hanging lamp and swivel chairs also available from BoConcept.
There are a few comforts that make all the difference in life and the Polisem Katharsys in home sauna is one I personally hope to add to mine. This sauna is the complete package inside and out with attractive appointments that modernize what was inspired by the original roman baths. Polisem has decked out the Kathasys in home sauna with features and treatments usually reserved for professional spas such as light, color, steam, thermal mud, heat, music, and aroma therapy. This day and age we inadvertently put so many toxins into our bodies that steam baths really help flush out our pours and renew our skin with a cleansing. Other treatments include a perfumed emotional shower and roman bath all of which allow a time and a place to totally relax and pay close attention to your most valuable possession, yourself!! Polisem residential and commercial wellness products are made to exacting standards in Italy.
