+ The good designers at Realfleet in Japan have been busy with Barouche, a new line of electronics and small appliances just for hotels (boutique hotel owners take note). Above from left CW: TV, desktop audio, telephone, steam iron, hair dryer and alarm clock. White appears to be the color de rigeur for hotels, but it’s all available in Realfleet’s trademark dark brown as well. Thanks Paul!




















Nice! Clean!
As anyone who travels often on business knows, the less that you have to "think" about the better - particularly in a hospitality environment.
These pieces are unobtrusive & modern- but not gimmicky and overly self- important. They address ALL the right needs in a stellar and winning fashion.
The clean white (appears here as matte) give the designs a very "touchable" quality and almost a prototype appearance. I love it! I'm also sure that the designers made certain that the white surfaces are easily maintainable by hotel staff.
(Damn! I'd like to work for these people.)
Great work. Art Donovan, Donovan Design.com
