Bathtub In Your Bathroom

Bathtub: A well-designed tub will make your bath much more enjoyable. Because it is the focal point of the room, it should be durable and elegant. It should be designed to keep water away from the walls of the room. It should also have plenty of lighting and smooth edges so the tub is not scratched up easily.

Traditional style tubs have a rectangular or oval shape with shallow sides and rounded corners. Other popular styles include oval with shallow sides and rounded corners. Decide if you want a round tub. The shape will add interest to the overall design of the room.

With contemporary bathrooms, more homeowners are choosing freestanding or modular tubs. These allow the homeowner to customize the shape of the tub to their own design. Many modular tubs have doors that open onto walk-in showers.

For more feminine and soothing feeling in the bath, a side stream style bathtub is popular. Sidestream tubs are designed to avoid the accumulation of soap scum in the tub and are made from more natural materials such as stone and natural wood. The cabinetry of these tubs is more luxurious and often includes baskets and shelving so the tub is arranged more aesthetically. These types of tubs often have a “coiled” body.
