NEW LOGICA SYSTEM - BY VALCUCINE
A true definition where ‘function meets form’. This innovative spin on our daily neccesity is brilliantly and creatively executed by Italian designer Gabriele Centazzo.
This system has everything you need, and alternatively can be cleaned up in an instant. Sliding panels and doors ingeniously hide the range hood, modular shelving units, and electrical outlets. The work area is scratch resistant using nanotechnology. And to top this all off, the system is 100% recyclable and reusable! No glue only mechanical fittings, zero formaldehyde emissions, and fully resistant to water and heat.
Result? Our favorite type of design – beautiful, stylish, practical and where Design and Technology are seamlessly integrated.

An INGENIUS concept.
Apart from all the great booths and featured displays, the Infinity Drain stood out to us for its simplicity, practicality and inventiveness. A truly advantageous and creative solution to the typical shower floor tile and centre drain dilemma.
Infinity Drain linear drain systems eliminate the traditional centre drain, by allowing you to slope your surface in any direction. It is available in multiple lengths and styles, as well as the only site sizeable linear drain. This results in limitless design possibilities due to endless tile size or slab material!
However, when you do have a centrally placed, four-way sloped shower drain, you can use the Tile Drain system. By incorporating tile or solid surface material, it makes for an effectively continuous installation.

What could be better than a Best in Class Plasma or LCD Flat Screen TV?
The New OLED Flat Screen TV - ‘Best of Show’ at the CES Electronics Show in Vegas……LG and Samsung have both featured the upcoming 55” OLED TVs which are the thinnest Flat Screen TVs yet…..Just millimeters thin, the LG beat out Samsung for the ‘Best of Show’ Award…but both TVs are incredible!
Not only are they a designer’s dream because they are ultra thin….but they also PRODUCE BETTER COLOUR and DEEPER BLACKS than any other TV on the market.
Previously the OLED TVs were only available in very small screen sizes so the introduction of a 55” is a huge step forward….they should be available for purchase later this year.
Check out this clip from the LG booth at the CES Show

The Grid Coffee Table from Hudson Furniture comes in very close.
Its rich walnut wood is cleverly juxtaposed with polished stainless steel or bronze. The impeccable design, quality and detail of this piece, is truly worthy!
