Let it Rain

I've got Spring fever and since my favorite season is still a few months off, I've been looking at products that say let it rain, here comes Spring.

So far I like the Rain line of lighting from Von Jakubowski and Krause. A series of ceiling fixtures and sconces, Rain's droplets are of shining crystal prisms, colored or clear.

Bohuslav Horak grows Spring-like flowers on the walls with his handmade floral sconces. They're simple and warm, and I swear I can smell them.

But back to the rain, I love the RainSky E from Dornbracht. Like showering in a glorious storm the RainSky E delivers three modes of water flow synchronized with soothing colored lights. Unfortunately, the RainSky E doesn't conform to North American plumbing rules, so us Americans and Canadians have to settle, for now, on the company's BigRain and JustRain models. They're both refreshing designs, but without RainSky's pressure options and lights. Maybe by the time Spring comes, we can have it all in North America too.
