Improving Bathrooms The Specifics
by: Raynor James

One of the best ways to increase the value of your home is to improve the bathrooms. Heres a primer on things to consider.

Sinks

Villeroy and Boch makes a sink that mimics a boulder worn into a bowl by water flowing into it. It can be quite handsome in a minimalist home or a rustic one. You can see it and others at https://www.tradebit.com.

Concrete Jungle makes some dramatically simple concrete sinks and vanities that surprisingly look very modern, or very farm-house. Check https://www.tradebit.com if that idea appeals.

Walker Zangers designs include a perfectly simple sink in white marble for a dressier look. They also have a sturdy dark wooden table base that gives it dramatic contrast. You might enjoy visiting https://www.tradebit.com for more ideas.

Showers

A shower separate from the tub is one of todays favorite luxuries. Some of them have been designed to feel like rain (at least part of the time). Dornbracht has one called RainSky M which can be checked out at https://www.tradebit.com.

Large frameless (or nearly frameless) glass shower enclosures are showing up in more and more homes. MAAX makes a line of showers with features like overhead waterfall systems, hand held shower heads, and body sprays coming from the side that work well in a frameless enclosure.

I helped a family sell a home with a very interesting master bath not too long ago. It had a shower much like the one described above, but it was designed for two people. It looked like a glass room floating inside the large bathroom.

Tubs

As for tubs. Well. Would you believe a tub in an arched tile niche with a gas log fireplace at its foot? Believe it. Can you imagine a nice long soak while listening to flute music and sipping chilled champagne? (James Bond can keep his martini.)
