Bathrooms are a focus feature in the 21st century home, and where space allows there is usually more than one. The most desirable configuration is an en suite shower room - a streamlined space for a quick and efficient cleanse and preparation in the morning and in addition a separate, larger and more indulgent room where there is a bath and possibly a steam enclosure and enough space to pamper, relax and unwind. As a valuable resource book, Bathrooms proves that it is no longer just the bath versus shower option that needs to be considered.

There is an increasingly diverse range of ancillary options. Saunas, spa baths, body jet showers and tailored cloakroom suites, environmentally modified systems, mood lighting and state-of-the-art technology, and these are just a few of the vast array of modern fixtures and fittings featured in the book. Also included is an insightful look at the huge range of materials now available, from complex resins, reinforced glass, treated woods and double skin steel.

Large-format glossy photographs, floor plans, technical details and architectural commentary straight from the studios of the designing architects themselves make this an invaluable volume for any design or architecture professional. These are forward-looking projects by internationally renowned architects whose work stands as a landmark to innovation. The reader will find a thorough explanation of the materials and techniques employed in each project.
