Bathrooms are quiet sanctuaries and fabulous design opportunities. Many homeowners are using these private spaces as outlets for their creativity and personal sense of style. Whether contrasting colored glass against tumbled stone, or mixing Italian tile and elegant counter materials, these creative homeowners are utilizing colors and textures as their palettes, opening up a world of design opportunity.
For a truly unique statement, specialty tubs are hard to beat. Free-standing tubs seem to be a common interest among many homeowners, no matter which way their design sensibility leans. With such a wide array of options on the market, die-hard traditionalists are adding graceful double slipper claw foot tubs while modernists are falling in love with the simplicity and clean lines of non-footed models.
In the Carlton SouthGate Masterpiece Home, our designer chose a Kohler Vintage tub that combines the roomy size of many modern tubs with the classic lines of a traditional tub. One practical bonus of this tub is the pedestal base, making cleaning under the tub a non-issue. Beauty and practicality combined is always an important goal, no matter what the budget.
