When making a decision on outdoor furniture it can be hard to decide between wicker or a metal based product. Metal is certainly designed to last and that often sways consumers in their purchasing decision. The cast aluminum outdoor furniture here comes from Summer Classics as part of their "Estate" series. The chairs come in a decorative metal pattern as you would expect. I do like the table and how it appears "thicker" much like a dining table inside a home would. Decorative trim hangs off the edge of the table giving it a nice little accent. Via.

This inspirational tub idea comes from the Davis & Warshow showroom in Manhattan. The tub design is encased in a stylish wood frame creating a different decorating feel for a bathroom. Where most bathrooms feature stone, tile, and resin based themes, the wooden tub creates a unique look altogether. I do like the fact that wood is not central to walls as well which allows me to appreciate this one accent touch while not creating a very "wood heavy" decorative theme. Via.
