4 days agoThis Bathroom Was Falling Apart - Now It Actually Works for a Busy Family
Family bathrooms require functional design and durable materials to accommodate kids and maximize space.
Velocio and RUX teamed up on a grab-and-go gear tote that actually solves the "where did I put my gloves/keys/bottle?" pre-ride scramble. The Velocio x RUX 25L Bag is a purpose-built hauler sized for a complete kit change and the little stuff that always vanishes when you're late to the trailhead or startline. These kinda bags a one of my favorite pieces of kit. They are essentially an "everything hauler," but they blend in with all your bike gear.
And in the case of this beautiful 1900s Victorian-style home in Boston, the redone bathroom was giving turn-of-the century time capsule - just not the right century. "The bathroom had last been renovated in the early 2000s (think: lots of beige, white, and travertine tile)," says Elana Gaines, founder and designer at Afternoon Creative. "Overall, the space felt dingy and uninspired, out of step with the charm and craftsmanship of the rest of this early 1900s Victorian home."
Nobody wants their tiny house looking like a glorified trailer, and Häuslein clearly got that memo. The Gunyah features termite-resistant timber and a monument matte colorbond that won't fade under Australia's harsh sun, complemented by cedar accents that age beautifully over time. Here's the kicker, though-it weighs less than three tonnes, meaning your average 4WD can haul it without special permits or expensive truck rentals. Add the optional porch, and suddenly you've got outdoor space that rivals many suburban backyards.
Ferrari has long set the bar for performance, elegance, and engineering mastery. Now imagine applying that same philosophy to something as essential as drinking water. That's the concept behind OKAPA, a Swiss-engineered water bottle designed not just to quench thirst but to elevate hydration into a luxury ritual. At $295, this isn't your average reusable bottle-it's a feat of technology and design that merges wellness with sophistication.
