A luxurious master bath has become a necessity for today’s homeowners, Today, real furniture–pieces normally seen in the living room or library–is giving bathroom design a whole new look. The bathroom is being converted into a personal retreat by expanding the size of bathrooms and adding whirlpools and more decorative fixtures. The master bathroom or luxury bathroom can include a toilet, bidet, two sinks, separate tub and shower, whirpool or spa and perhaps more. The half bathroom has a sink and toilet only. The full bathroom includes toilet, sink, and combination tub/shower plumbed along one wall. The small bathroom includes a corner shower stall, toilet and sink, while the children’s bathroom can be a three-quarter bathroom or full bathroom.
The best way to unwind from the day is to have a soothing shower or warm soak in the tub, with candles and relaxing music. Master baths include luxury items such as see-through fireplaces, mini-refrigerators, exercise equipment, saunas and televisions to create a gracious and pampering living space.
Bathroom furniture and a separate shower and bathtub are emerging as hot items in today’s bathrooms. The above-counter sink, which serves as a sink as well as displayed art, is also seen in modern bathrooms. Modern bathrooms are nowadays decorated with vintage furniture also. Vintage pieces are being used as vanities or for more decorative purposes, such as a towel rack or sitting chairs. Stainless steel is also being used in everything from the sink, to the medicine chest to the bathtub and shower walls. Faucets and spigots, as well as tubs and toilets, are available in a variety of shapes and materials. Fixtures come in colors like bone, biscuit or white. The most popular finish for faucets is chrome with soft brass accents. Today’s bathrooms boast artistic and aesthetic sink and vanity areas, with hand-blown glass and vessel sinks gaining in popularity.
