Slowly but surely, summer is drawing to a close, and fall is creeping in – and with the changing season inevitably comes a change of focus, a turning inward and a desire to create warm, cocooning spaces in our homes. Before that, however, we’re delighted to bring you some highlights from the last weeks of summer and a look back at August’s activities in our Renaissance Review.

Distinctive Projects and Collaborations
In good company
Great design is all about attention to detail. Our color matching service enables RGS customers to achieve next-level detailing by matching their wine cellar or MOOI shower enclosure to other elements in their interior. We were recently asked by a purchaser to match their enclosure to a stunning Hermés table, and received these beautiful pictures of the product in situ.
Advanced party prep
Sometimes a homeowner will plan and agonize over the design of their dream wine cellar for a long time. Other times, they make a snap decision – like a recent billionaire customer of Thomas Warner Wine Cellars, who planned a party and THEN decided to install a wine cellar for the occasion! We were thrilled to work on this prestige project with our colleagues at Thomas Warner, developing a bespoke wine cellar with zoned storage for champagne, white and red wine. The project was completed to perfection in time for a lavish event at the client’s Colorado ski resort home.
Design inspiration: Where style meets substance
Perfect symmetry
It’s hard to imagine how your day could get off on the wrong foot in this stunning spa bathroom, created in partnership with Windham Builders, TX. We designed and manufactured two bespoke shower enclosures to fit the symmetrical architecture of the room, plus a large rectangular window that floods the already luminous space with even more natural light.
Go au naturale
Our unlacquered finish is having a major moment right now. Unlacquered simply means we don’t apply a patina or finish to the bronze to alter its natural color – what you see is the unmistakable warm glow of the raw, beautiful alloy, which is only enhanced by the passage of time.
Inspired partnerships with RGS
Expertise at your fingertips
Our bespoke, handcrafted solid bronze windows, doors, wine cellars and shower enclosures offer homeowners incredible luxury and choice – and for a complete guide to all the various details and options, our handy trifold brochure is the perfect companion. It contains all the information you need to understand why RGS Bronze is the obvious choice for the discerning architect or homeowner.
Elite sample boxes
Our sample boxes are a great way to experience the beauty of natural solid bronze first-hand. And of course, we don’t just send you tiny chips of bronze to look at – we supply your requested finishes in the form of a small but perfectly-formed glazed window, so you can get a real sense of the finished product. They look great in the showroom, too.
Dealer appreciation
All the cool kids love a YETI – and our dealers are definitely on the list! We were thrilled to send out a number of these luxury coolers in recognition of the commitment of our dealers last month, just in time for those Labor Day celebrations.
Enhancing architecture with the beauty of bronze
Perennially stylish
From cavernous walk-in enclosures to simple, over-bath showering spaces, there’s simply nowhere that the addition of a solid bronze shower enclosure can’t add a feeling of elegance and luxury. Those geometric shapes, signature patinas and narrow sightlines are the epitome of refined design, creating timeless interiors that are a joy to experience.
Enduring elegance
Did you know that unlike other metals, bronze actually gets stronger as it ages? While steel can corrode, bronze develops a patina that actually protects its surface from wear and tear. Of course, if you prefer your bronze to stay looking bright and new, you can polish away the patina without affecting the longevity of your solid bronze fixtures.
