Would you give us your thoughts on a freestanding tub? A design trend that some may fi nd surprising is whether to have a tub in the master bath at all. Many are removing the tub, opting instead for a luxurious walk in shower. While some consider a bathtub to be outdated or unnecessary in a bathroom, for others, nothing can replace the feeling of a soothing soak in a warm spacious tub. If a bath is your idea of the ultimate in relaxation, then perhaps you should consider a freestanding tub in your next renovation. It is easy to see why freestanding tubs have become such popular choices in bathrooms recently. Available in a range of size, shapes, and styles, these tubs are far more than functional. Th ey change the tone of a bathroom by turning it into a relaxing sanctuary, and as a clear focal point in any bathroom they greatly impact the style of the room. Freestanding tub styles frequently conjure images of very large bathrooms, but they can be positioned almost anywhere in the room and are available in a range of sizes making them an option for many more bathrooms than one might anticipate. If a freestanding tub is the right choice for you, here are some tips to help with your bathroom design. Where will it go? Keeping the toilet as far away from the tub as possible — ideally in its own room — makes the tub more inviting.
