LUXURY BATHROOM, THE(ISBN=9780307393708) txt 电子书 免费 下载地址

　　The bathroom is the new design frontier. In urban apartments

and at large secluded estates, adventurous home owners and the

nation’s top designers are breaking the old rules, using space and

materials in dramatic new ways and reimagining just what a bathroom

can be. No longer intended solely for utilitarian purposes, today’s

bathrooms are designed for everything from solitude to

accommodating the family to entertaining.

The Luxury Bathroom offers a tour of thirty-five state-of-the-art

spaces created by today’s top designers—among them Celerie Kemble,

Jamie Drake, and Miles Redd—in exclusive residences across the

country. From luxuriously equipped expanses worthy of Canyon Ranch

to a tiny Beaux Arts bathroom inspired by a gallery at New York’s

Metropolitan Museum of Art to a guest bath covered in leather

tiles, each room is unique and a rich source of inspiration and

aspiration.

Once the most purely functional of rooms, bathrooms today are

evolving into the most fanciful and sumptuous of living spaces. In

these pages you’ll discover a getaway oasis that brings the spa

vacation home, an unabashedly social space complete with wet bar

and fabulous upholstery, and a woman’s private sanctuary that is

the ultimate expression of contemporary femininity.

Not only delving into the details that make each room unique, but

also including humor and insight into how the spaces reflect the

owners’ lifestyle, taste, and vision, The Luxury Bathroom reveals a

surprising range of possibilities for reinventing this room, for

those of us who are ready to begin now or who are just dreaming

about doing so.

The phenomenal array of unique materials and the limitless

imagination of designers and builders have made bathrooms the new

design frontier. The space has become a nucleus of style and taste,

but perhaps it is most notable for seducing its owners to spend

time there. And, after all, what is more luxurious than time? With

the endless possibilities for what was once a boxed-in space, the

bathroom has become the Cinderella star of a fancy dress ball. And

so The Luxury Bathroom will inform and entertain as it celebrates

not just the bathroom, but really the imagination.

  作为一家公司，第一要提升行业效率，第二要让消费者受益。为了这两个目标，做任何事情都是应该的。不存在你不懂、不擅长或者不敢的问题，或者因为它重你就不碰了，应该是怎么对怎么来。

• 衣服真的会说话

      都说人要衣服马要鞍，虽是老话，却是经久不变的真理。不同的衣服给人的感觉是截然不同的。尤其是在职场打拼的我们而言，在合适的场合，穿着合适的衣服，有时甚至会跟你的能力发挥同样的作用。

  记得刚看完《杜拉拉升职记》电影版，看到里面光彩照人、闪亮的时尚华服在眼前晃啊晃的，好羡慕那些在外企工作的女生。其实回到现实生活来看，并不是这样的。有个在外企工作的闺蜜，也算是资深了，经常看她穿着非正式商务装，单色的套头衫加及膝裙，个别部位有小设计感，整体很规范和有品质感，觉得这才是职场装的常态。经常在工作场合看到一些美女们穿着吊带裙、小背心之类的衣服就来了，弄得我的眼睛都有点不知所措，不知该往哪里看，虽然我也是女生一枚，可是，目光也总被一些不该去注意的地方吸引。

  就像梁艳在书中说的，职场经不起性感的折腾，我非常赞同。职场可以有个性，但是是有原则下的个性发挥。

• 生肖，赋予每个平凡生命以灵性——读吴裕成《中国人的十二生肖》

  生肖，赋予每个平凡生命以灵性

  ——读吴裕成《中国人的十二生肖》

  随着近些年农历春节节日氛围的日渐冷清，以春节作为新旧两个生肖年份交接标志的年俗文化，包括生肖文化也日渐冷寂。除了主流电视媒体——以及近年所谓的新媒体——刻意营造出来的节日气氛，通过诸如“金鸡辞旧岁，瑞犬迎新春”，“瑞犬辞旧岁，金猪迎新春”，“金猪辞旧岁，瑞鼠迎新春”的接替循环，让我们借由生肖感受生生不息的气氛，否则，春节就真有逐步退化成纯粹七天长假的倾向了。

  生肖文化虽然淡化——特别是受到外来星座、血型文化的冲击——但在一定范围内还是受到重视的。举其要者，重视者有三：一是为人父母者，对即将诞生儿女的生肖属相在意（由此，有诸如“金猪”宝宝扎堆的现象，又如有以生肖为宝宝大名、小名、乳名的）；二还是为人父母者，如果讲究的话，对即将成为自己儿女另一半的人的生肖属相（“八字”）在意，希望二者的生肖组合能趋吉避凶，好上加好；三是处于“本命年”的人，希望老天爷在这十二年一“巡”中，能够对自己格外眷顾，冥冥中帮助自己逢凶化吉、遇难成祥，顺利过“坎”。

  读完吴裕成先生的《中国人的十二生肖》，结合自己的理解，对十二生肖有这么几点看法：

  1.生肖与天上的星宿、方位相对应，从而建立了某一年内降生的人与冥冥上天的某种关联，进而赋予每个平凡的生命以灵性。生肖——生辰或者生年的肖物，其实就是对某个年份的标注。它可以是一个简单的数字，如纪年，也可以是个有意义或者没意义的称呼，还可以是个可见或不可见的物，象猫啊狗啊，一棵树或一块石头什么的。我们的老祖宗则选用了十二种动物，并循环、轮流用于标注年份，这本身就体现了一种生生不息、接续传承。既如此，则每个生命的诞生都是上天的安排，怎能不好好活着，承担延续生命以及文化的责任？

  2.十二生肖体现浓厚的农业社会文化积淀。十二生肖，大致可以分为两类：一是六畜——马牛羊，鸡狗猪，兔当然也可归入其中，这是入世与接地气的：另一类是令人敬畏或者是让人对其带有某种向往的，包括龙、小龙（蛇）、猛虎、灵猴和鼠，这体现的是对自然的敬畏。务实而知敬畏，这正是农耕文明的典型特征。

  3.十二生肖的选择，浓缩了人们美好的寓意与愿望。虎虎生威、龙马精神自不必说，牛取其勤恳、狗取其忠诚，动如脱兔、灵猴机敏，鸡谐吉、羊同祥，猪的能吃能睡作为福气的表现，连最不让人待见的鼠都要拿它繁殖力强来说事。由此可见，对美好生活的向往，自古有之。

  此外，鉴于生肖属相和姓氏都是个人的某种标签，如果把生肖与姓氏来做一下简单的对比，也是很有趣的。生肖和姓氏，可谓一虚一实，一开放一封闭。生肖是虚的，天下有十二分之一的人和你共享某一生肖，其空间是开放的，简直可称“大而化之”，有等于没有；而姓氏则不同，在一个具体的地方、一定范围内，姓氏意味着某个具体、实在的族群，因为它成群，就具有了群体的属性和力量，又相对封闭，这可是实实在在的，会有某种约束，又会有某种助力。所以，某一姓氏的联谊会到处都有，而某一生肖的联谊会则未曾见。
