Splash the bonus

Oh_void_seul The press have gone wild with the 8.8 billion zillion pounds bankers are getting as bonuses this year... They have offered ideas to spend that on watches, cars etc... I am sure those gaining them will also fall in love with more challenging offers!

I love this work by Ron Arad ... used by excellent french designer Vincent Dupont Rougier (seen in AD).

Find Ron's other work that works outdoors on Artnet.com or via Barry Friedman Ltd.  (212) 794-8950

Beyond wood decking

Rust_222 Tiling options for outdoors have exploded in terms of color and textures. Today we can play with new creative solutions ranging from faux leather, faux rust to faux wood etc ... and move beyond terracotta or ...terracotta in terms of palette. And of course use combinations such as wood+tiles etc...

Walton Ceramics in Knightsbridge have a short, focused, innovative range which make them a very good first port of call.

On line you will find most of the products but they have hidden gems in the store on Walton Street.Ask for Tim Whittaker 21 Walton Street London SW3 Tel: 0207 589 7386
