I recently returned from a trip to Germany, where VP+C escorted a group of journalists to test Dornbracht’s incredible ATT technology. You’ve probably heard, by now, of the Horizontal Shower, which is powered by ATT. In addition to getting to test out this supremely relaxing, invigorating and exciting marvel of technological mastery, we had a wonderful tour of the country. Though i’ve had the privilege of visiting Dornbracht many times before, this was my first summertime visit and i have to say, it was spectacular. Check out my photos from the Black Forest and beyond.

Horizontal Shower, above a supremely comfy spa bed. It’s as amazing as it looks, guys.

The hills are alive with the Sound of Music.

At Rheinzink in Datteln, we took a tour of the Liebeskind villa. Our favorite parts were the bathrooms, with crazy novelty door handles and Supernova fittings.

A visit to Sieger Design, on a spectacularly beautiful day, enchanted the whole group. I’m working with Mark on moving our offices to a castle, too.

Seriously. Their offices are amazing.

Sieger doesn’t just design faucets. I fell deeply madly for this car’s bold palette.

Our spectacular al fresco lunch- not what most of us expect from German cuisine.
