Luxury Bathrooms
The concept of luxury bathrooms is quite a recent trend in the world of design. Throughout most of the 20th century the bathroom was seen as being simply functional, rather than somewhere that you would regard as an oasis of opulence and relaxation.
Yet, since the times of the Ancient Egyptians and Cleopatra, bathing has been seen as an important function and there has always been a desire for luxury, even if bathroom design did not reflect this. These days the two concepts have converged and luxurious bathrooms are readily available and in high demand.
The sky is the limit in terms of what is available at the top end of the luxury bathroom range. You can have sunken baths, ones that are almost hand crafted, or bespoke to suit your own individual needs. How about some real marble flooring, imported from Italy? Or perhaps you would like a Jacuzzi that can easily take two or more and has the most amazingly powerful jets?
For those on a more limited budget, there are still some luxury items that are affordable, such as smaller whirlpool bath systems, or even hydro-massage units that can be fitted to the shower. Attractive flooring and some seductive lighting, along with very chic tiles and funky taps, can actually transform the oldest, smallest and most mundane of bathrooms into somewhere with a sense of luxury and style. Whatever your pocket, it is well-worth thinking about how to re-vamp your bathroom to give it that special air of opulence.
