Freestanding Stars in the New Bathroom of the 21st Century
Freestanding baths are being credited, in part, to the rise in popularity of the melding of bathroom and relaxation area. Demarcation lines between main bathroom and bedroom are blurring as furniture and soft furnishings are added to the mix to increase the sense of luxury and comfort.
Key to this look is the freestanding bath and Kohler’s Askew lithocast two people bath and the luxurious Escale BubbleMassage model are popular choices – as much for their statement-making aesthetics as the deeply relaxing and rejuvenating therapy they offer.
The Askew is boldly geometric, representing three rectangular plinths sitting at a slight angle one on top of the other. The gently curved Escale BubbleMassage bath delivers a blissful full body massage courtesy of thousands of bubbles, filled with warm air, that support and massage the entire body.
And for the ultimate, indulgent inclusion install the ceiling mounted Laminar Spout – a steady stream of water enters the bath, spectacularly, without a splash!
Note: The Askew bath is available in Australia, and not currently available in New Zealand.
