Adding to its line of professional displays, NEC is bringing the LCD8205 to 2008 Digital Signage Expo East. We’ve seen bigger in the consumer space, but when you’ve just got to have 4×4 tile support for a max 328-inch (diagonal) display, refreshingly realistic 5,000:1 claimed contrast ratio and 1920×1080 resolution, there’s not much better. At $54,999 each, it’s unlikely we’ll find one under the tree when it releases in December but catching a peek (and fogging up a display window or two) is slightly more attainable goal.

During the Empire the Italians or the Romans always enjoyed visiting bath houses. One of the largest bath houses was about 700 square meters and there was enough water to satisfy visitors’ needs. This was the start of earlier Italian bathroom design which has changed and developed during a long time but there are some basic elements that still remain.

This is the modern bathroom with Italian tile. Ceramics have been one of the basic elements when it comes to Italian bathroom. So the light colored tile is an eye-catching accessory and focal point of the room. There is a walk-in shower and soft white floor mat that doesn’t let feel the cold when stepping into the bathroom, though bleached mahogany is a better material to use as a footboard.

There are also décor items which are part of Italian design and are not used in this one. But let me tell you about them. Mirrors are an integral part of the Italian decoration as it can put accent on the quality of the bathroom. When it comes to Italian bathroom design, hanging small pictures of landscape and flora will be an ideal. There also can be a tasteful blend of old and new items. So, Italian bathroom design is a wonderful piece of artwork.
