Home Office/Study

  • Lounge Chair: After a hard day of work, take a load off in your comfy lounge chair.
  • Desk Organizer: Luxury is as much about clarity as it is comfort, and nothing clears the mind like a well-organized office. Think about it — what is less luxurious than fretting about where you put that important document!?
  • Accordion Task Lamp: Whether you’re reading a book in your lounge chair or filing something in your desk, making sure your space is well-lit is key.

Bedroom

  • Egyptian Cotton: For years, Egyptian cotton has been synonymous with comfort and luxury. Enjoy it in your room, often for as cheap as $150 for a 1200 thread count!
  • High Thread Pillows: Also be sure to keep your pillow thread count high. Anything below 1000 is unacceptable!
  • Vintage Nightstand: If you’re feeling extra groovy, spice up the bedroom with a flashy nightstand, as well.

Bathroom

  • High Efficiency Toilet: Get one of these installed and save big on your energy bill for all time to come!
  • Gooseneck Shower Head: Why gooseneck? Because nothing else makes you actually feel like there is a waterfall smoothly rinsing over your hair as you take a bubble bath!
  • Heated Towel Rack: Step out of the shower and feel the warm embrace of towels that have been pre-heated for your comfort!

Foyer

  • Vanity: There’s nothing wrong with getting a little self-indulgent…especially when emulating royalty. So indulge on as you catch a glimpse of yourself in the mirror ever morning!
  • Raincoat Wardrobe: Why track rain all throughout your newly improved home? Leave the elements where they belong: in your raincoat wardrobe and OFF your carpet!

Lounge

  • Home Theater: Enjoy surround sound in the comfort of your living room and you will truly feel like you have a front seat in the king’s court!
  • Love Seat: Plush pillows and smooth furniture are bound to make even the most mundane activities more comfortable…and more importantly, more enjoyable.
  • Ottoman: What would a love seat be without an ottoman to prop your feet on? Lay down, relax, and enjoy!

Kitchen

  • Kitchen Island: Doubt the capacity of a kitchen to provide comfort and luxury? You’ll think again when you experience what it’s like to dine on high from an island.
  • New Storage: Eliminate or even prevent clutter with new and improved cabinets, racks and drawers that will provide you with a place for anything.
  • Sub-Cabinet Lighting: Why cook in the dark? Sub-cabinet lighting ensures that you be marveling at everything in front of you!
