Spring 2008 sees the launch of the stunning new b1 kitchen system from the German kitchen company, bulthaup. Offering innovative design that offers unprecidented quality of kitchen doors worktops but without the hefty price tag of its b3 predecessor.
The b1 is ideal for young professionals wanting to invest in a top quality first kitchen; for second homeowners; or for those people that already own a bulthaup kitchen but would like a second kitchen in their home.
Whereas the bulthaup b3 system offers the customer an endless choice of colours, finishes, materials and internal fittings, the b1 system offers a more concise choice without compromising on quality or overall excellence. b1 is a more minimalist and pure version of b3; it complements the b3 design, and is not overshadowed by it. Instead, the b1 design focuses on the essentials of kitchen design offering the fundamental elements of the bulthaup brand - practicality and efficiency are the order of the day.

A few weeks ago I was invited to the unveiling of a particularly special shirt. Unfortunately, I couldn’t attend in the end, but Eton, a Swedish family owned luxury shirt specialist celebrated their
80th birthday with the launch of ‘The world’s most expensive tailored shirt’.
Billed as an “ultra glamorous evening shirt” there is no denying it’s beautifully tailored and woven style. Materials were derived from the finest and rarest Egyptian cotton yarn which was hand chosen by Eton’s Creative Director Jan Borghardt. He comments “I have been in this business for my entire professional career, and I handle high-end quality textiles on a daily basis but I have never before felt a fabric like this one.”
The shirts most striking aspect are the seven coloured diamonds that adorn the shirt studs and cufflinks. The five diamond dress stud set consists of multi coloured diamonds and the cufflinks each have one white diamond and all are set in white with black enamel borders.
The shirt’s value is £23,000 ($47,000 approx) and it will commence a world wide tour of Eton’s international stores which includes Milan, LA and Stockholm. The tour lasts for one year and in Spring 2009 it will be auctioned and Eton will donate the proceeds to charity.
The Vale is situated in Chelsea, one of London’s most vaunted property hot spots.
The staggering £12.5 million ($24 million approx) home oozes luxury appeal.
The hefty price tag gives you a piece of prime London real estate with all the trimmings. These include:
