Okay...Now were talking my language. I truly believe the most important room in the house is the bathroom, and the most important thing in the bathroom, the tub. I was going through some pictures of jobs our remodel team has done, and found this fabulous bathtub remodel Travis did. Tub+Fireplace= HEAVEN! Another amazing project by these guys.
I found this great article about bathroom renovations on the NAWIC (national association for women in construction) website. I have a feeling I will be pulling a lot of ideas from that sight. Enjoy!
10 Bath Remodeling Trends
1. Shapely tubs: From the claw foot and pedestal to the graceful boat-shaped bateau, curvaceous tubs are reconfiguring the look of the bathroom.
2.Nickel fixtures: This sleek metal suits many types of fixtures, from faucets to sconces.
3. Wall-mounted faucets: This trend is the ultimate in streamlined style.
4. Shimmering effects: Designers are taking a shine to the array of decorative glass tiles and mosaics on the market and are using them either as an accent or to cover an entire wall.
5. Mirrored surfaces: The glamour of the Art Deco era is seeing a revival with a flood of mirrored cabinets, furnishing, accessories and even tub surrounds.
6. Pharmacy cabinets: These freestanding cabinets are the perfect bathroom accompaniment.
7. Frameless glass showers: The new seamless glass showers with minimal framing compliment any bathroom decor.
8. Classic subway tiles: These vintage-style tiles, shaped like bricks and set in a staggered "running bond" fashion, are making a big comeback in kitchens and baths.
9. Old-world embellishments: After years of Zen-spa minimalism, elements of the old-world style look fresh again.
10. High-tech bathing: Convert your shower experience from so-so to sybaritic with a steam generator and rain dome. Add even more luxury with an all-purpose shower stack that has multiple heads, body sprays and adjustable settings. Bathing also borders on the decadent with whirlpool jets, deep soaking overflow tubs and chroma-therapy color washes. Towel warmers and electric radiant-heat flooring will help smooth the transition from hot to cold.
