Whirlpool tubs were at the forefront of luxury bathroom design for years, but these days the focus is all on showers. Multi-sprayer custom showers and sprawling steam showers are more conductive to a busy lifestyle, and steam...
If my TV is to be believed, everyone and their mother is doing a massive dream bathroom renovation as we speak. But if that last episode of Bang For Your Buck left you green with envy and your bank account white with fear, you might still be able to get the luxury bathroom remodel you want without having to sell off your firstborn. How? There are a lot of ways, but one of my favorite is t...
Tile is the most popular material in bathroom design, to the point that it's often less a question of tile versus something else and more a question of what type of tile to use - in the shower, on the floor, and even on the walls.
