Inspiration #15

A busy week with lots of meetings and errands after work has me dreaming of relaxing in a soaking tub with wine and never getting out…or at least not until I’m sufficiently pruney. Since I have a marvelous, fits-two-people soaking tub for the master bathroom I’m designing for #ThisOldHouse, I’ve been curating images of how to use them in an open concept.

This is the latest in a weekly post of residential architecture inspiration. If you want to see past weeks, you can go here. If you want to see them curated on my pinterest (sometimes before they even hit the blog), go here.

This soaking tub feels like a cool spot on a warm summer day. The simple lines of the black ledge that serves both the tub and the shower are elegant (and I’m also intrigued by the shower head). The sloped marble floor in a darker color lets the tub just *pop*.

Talk about cool surfaces, this fully-clad tile space is gorgeous. The soaking tub in the shower space seems to separate the wet spaces from the sink, and I love the translucent channel glass wall.

Back to a simple, Scandinavian look – free of flourishes.  The white surfaces and soaking tub bounce the natural light around and the details are all minimal and perfect.

Another Scandinavian soaking tub in a shower space – complete with a hot water towel warmer, because duh. You can’t quite see how the shower is interacting, but it appears there’s more than enough room for both to operate in the same space.

Ohai, gorgeous daylight and wall of casement windows. You make that soaking tub the place of dreams. I’m intrigued by the large format, wide grout tile at the shower. And what’s behind that translucent wall, you bathroom of mysteries?

Best for last in this week of soaking tubs, because you would never get me out of this guy. Every tub should come with a view and this one sets the bar.
