The Bubble Blo, New Inflatable Jacuzzi Tub from Blofield.

Blofield, whose high styled inflatable Chesterfield Sofa has been the recipient of the Red Dot Design award and whose pieces I profiled in my Inflatable Goes Formal post has just introduced the Bubble Blo, an inflatable hot spa.



It comes with an included power pack to provide warm water and bubbles, and like all their products is inflatable via their air-design, comes with its own bag and is easy to transport. It will be available with customized wrapping in every design, color or print imaginable.

Modern Waterproof Wood Sinks And Tubs From UWD

In 1979, UWD (Unique Wood Designs) began by building yachts, boats and canoes. After thirty years they had developed a very high quality boat-building and carpentry workshop, so they began looking ahead.

Their experience and innovative ideas led them to envision a company that today is called Unique Wood Design and is a net of workshops cooperating with young creative designers. They design and craft handmade wooden bathtubs and washbasins,a combination of their carpentry tradition and modern boat-building technologies.

They developed a unique wood coating technique; numerous layers allow deep wood penetration with a coating that is outstandingly durable and fully waterproof. It protects the wood from scratching and UV radiance. It also has antiseptic properties. Apart from the practical part of our coating technology, there is also an aesthetic side. The multi-layered woods they apply bring out the original wood grain give it the effect of incredible depth and variety of textures.

Their wooden bathtubs and washbasins are manufactured utilizing two carpentry technologies: hardwood - the most durable wood form, and veneer technology which allows a wider range of unique colors and effects. They use the best quality woods coming from controlled falling plantations. Their products are made of various European, Asian and African woods.

Here's a look at some of their most unique and beautiful pieces:
