Stainless Steel bathroom accessories

Its been a while since my last post. As i was going through my store room & i found a spare hook. Suppose to install this on the guest room door in case guest need to hang stuff on them.
In the end we didn't us it and now its sitting on my shelf. However, i think its a good design to share.

Initially, i want to get those Iconic Eames hang it all  hooks but the protrusion is too much & beside the door just won't open properly. Also, this hooks are spray painted and is not suitable for moist places like baths. so i have to give up the Mid-Century modern idea.

Product Story
Charles and Ray Eames brought a sense of play to all their work, including the Hang-It-All. It took the everyday coat rack to a new place that was inventive and fun. More than just a conversation piece, the Hang-It-All holds anything that slips over its colorful hooks.

Design Story
Ray Eames designed a variety of whimsical toys and furniture pieces specifically for children, including this 1953 piece for Tigrett Enterprises Playhouse Division.

Why children's products? For purely personal reasons: Charles and Ray wanted to give them to their own grandchildren and to the children of friends.


 Instead i got this squarish modern ones to match the square rain shower.




Bath room hooks

Got this cool hooks in stainless steel. Unlike those hook made of plastic that will break over time.
Saw these & feel in love with them.
Price is a fraction of Hansgrohe.

Bought 1 piece, 1 for each bathroom and 1 for guest room door
Paid around SGD45+ for each of this lovely hooks.
Installed in master bath

Toilet paper holderMatching the look for the hooks. They are super sparkling & really feel super luxury.
However these hooks are quite sharp on the corners but look damn fierce. Bought 2 piece, 1 for each bathroom
Paid around SGD65+ each

Installed in master & common bath. see the reflection on the wall.

Brabantia pedal bin

Brabantia has always been a premium quality home ware for many years. The first time we saw this was in Harbourfront centre where they have a stand-alone booth in HomeFix that has a frontage. But it seens like a far fetch at $100+ for a trash can.

The price justifies when the item is made of high grade stainless steel with a 10 year mechanism warranty. Meaning, after many many years this bin is still alive and kicking. Bins are made of Steel instead of plastic which generate toxic when product and dispose. I specially like the idea of buying very durable goods rather than cheap & "disposable" goods that you have to throw away all the time. Disposables are never eco-friendly.


Last weekend, while grocery shopping in JASON's market place, this bin RRP $118 is discount for only $39.90 with minimum $30 purchase!! We grab it like PRC in LV.

More details below:

Brabantia FPP Matte Steel Pedal Bin


The new Brabantia Matte Steel Pedal Bin Fingerprint Proof's whisper lid ensures silent closing. The lid can stay-open position when manually operated - smart hinge. Corrosion resistant - keeps its beauty for a very long time. Body and lid made of high-grade chromium steel or steel plate with Galfan coating. Removable plastic inner bucket. Special top rim - completely hides bin liner for a nice look. Sturdy metal carrying grip. Protective plastic base - prevents damage to the floor. Fingerprint Proof: A special coating that makes fingerprints nearly invisible and the products easy to clean. No matter what your color scheme is, you can find a Fingerprint Proof Pedal Bin from Brabantia that will work well with your room décor. For instance, the Fingerprint Proof Pedal Bins (in 5, 12, 20 and 30 liter sizes) look good with any type of room furniture, and add a classic and clean look to any living or working space. Its solid-metal lid opens by stepping on the pedal mechanism--convenient for when your hands are full or you want to keep them clean and germ-free. Then, instead of banging shut, the lid closes with nearly silent operation. It can also be set to stay open thanks to its sturdy nylon hinge design and will withstand 30,000 open and close cycles. Other highlights include a patented top rim for an odor-proof seal, corrosion-resistant high-quality materials, a non-skid base to keep the can steady even on wet or polished floors, and a plastic floor ring to protect floors from scratches, as well as a sturdy carrying handle and a fingerprint-proof finish that decreases smudges and keeps the steel looking shiny and new. In addition, the can offers a plastic inner bucket with ventilation holes for easy cleanup and removal of the custom bin liners (available separately).

Lightings : Arco Lamp by Achille Castiglioni [Installed]

This by far is the loudest lighting i had installed. Mentioned on previous post, this lamp is from a famous designer in 1962. We got this at a fraction of the original price, which was retailing at Space for $4,000 before discount. However, getting in cheap, we had to do our own transport & installation. The installation is actually quite straight forward with 1 screw and the rest is just a couple of hooking & snapping. Also, the marble is very heavy, so carrying and shifting around is difficult.

  
We try to arrange it beside the sofa but the L Shape sofa corner was too far from coffee table so we have to bring it to the balcony side so that the lamp lands right in the middle of the coffee table. 


Alternative view from the balcony. Behind is the Tord boontje Garland, Artichoke lamp, Vintage 1963 Hille Chair upholstered & 3 blade IONA Fan


Email ad_b_h@yahoo.com if you are interested to buy this lamp around $350 brand new.

That's $1.68 per pc. Cheaper than IKEA...


Bodum another big brand, it's coffee press I had been eying for the longest time is $49.80! Previously $ 79.00 & in my fave green.


Lastly, Italian 4 tier mini trolly @ half price (was $49.00 now $24.90)
Unlike the normal white boring ones, this is again powder coated in green.
