I honestly can’t think of a single person who doesn’t feel better after a warm bath. Being immersed in the caressing water soothes sore muscles, relieves stress, and rejuvenates the spirit. If you’re building a home, you can design your bathroom any way you want it. If you’re remodeling or improving an existing bathroom, however, you might be working with a small amount of space. Corner bathtubs, like the ones at plumbing point dot com! Corner bathtubs are specifically designed to fit in a corner. This gets them out of the way and utilizes space that might otherwise be wasted. Corner bathtubs range in size from very small tubs to large bathtubs that are roomy enough for two adults. Some have built-in seats and are adorned along the edge with raised motifs, and you can also get a corner jetted tub and corner soaking tubs. Large corner bathtubs are usually about five-six feet in length. They might be square, rectangular, or circular in shape. Freestanding bathtubs are available, but the drop-in models are more popular.

This type of corner bathtub is dropped into a raised platform called a deck. The deck can be designed to match or complement the rest of the bathroom décor and might be covered with quarried tile, stone, glass tile, brick, or specially sealed natural wood. Many homeowners take advantage of the deck by placing candles, plants, soaps, sponges, or washcloths on the surface. Small corner bathtubs are the perfect answer for a small bathroom where space is at a premium. These small units might be built-in tubs or freestanding bathtubs. Many are deeper than traditional bathtubs, although they take up considerably less floor space. Since these are deeper, however, you can still get good corner soaking tubs. Small corner bathtubs might be round, square, circular, or pie-wedge shaped. To see this example, see the photo below. How much does a corner bathtub cost? There’s a wide range of prices for corner bathtubs, depending on the size of the tub, the shape, the depth, and the material from which it’s made.

An acrylic corner bathtub can be found for just over $600, and this type of tub comes in a wide range of colors. Most of these tubs come with a five-year warranty. Fiberglass corner tubs cost a little more than the acrylic models, but they’re generally more durable. Bathtubs that are a blend of acrylic and fiberglass are also available. If you prefer a corner bathtub with whirlpool jets, massage pillow, colored lights, and stereo, expect to pay around $3,000 or more. For a breathtakingly beautiful and unique corner bathtub, choose one made of onyx, travertine, marble, or sandstone. Many of these bathtubs are individually hand crafted from a single block of stone, so no two are exactly alike. These bathtubs cost substantially more, but they last a lifetime and are virtually maintenance free.

Bathing experiences run the gamut from deep-soaking tubs to air baths, which allow you to fully immerse yourself in gently massaging bubbles. In fact, many of the bathing technologies, from whirlpool jets to chromatherapy (lighting), have made their way from destination spas into the home bath.

New Delhi-based Rachna Jindal, Co-founder & CTO, My Home Design says, “Customisation, indulgence and opulence are the central themes when it comes to uber luxury. Surround sound systems complete with recording and karaoke functions, televisions embedded in mirrors and sensor controls bring technology right into the forefront of the once boring bathroom”. According to Purvi Parikh, founder of Mumbai-based store, Tranceforme, “People are opting for jacuzzis, showers with pressure jets and more. Depending on the space, couples are even opting for separate washbasins and toilet seats in the same bathroom”. Pic Courtesy: My Home Design Bathrooms are redefining the concept of luxury. As Gitesh Agarwal, Executive Director, D&M rightly puts it, “Some of the bathrooms now cost almost as much as a small home”. Providing an insight into the current trends, Rachna adds, “The corner bathtub is outdated; it is now being replaced with walk-in-showers fitted with chromatherapy (lighting).

The bathtub has taken a new form—adorned with designer legs, delicate curves and gold-plated faucets”. Pic Courtesy: Studio Creo Bling in the bathroom is a thing of beauty. Gilt-edged fittings are the ultimate expression of royalty and extravagance. “Alternately, you can add a few gold-coloured details on the mirror and other decorative pieces,” according to Parushni Aggarwal, Owner and Creative Director, Studio Creo, based in New Delhi. The lifestyle of Indian consumers is changing and they are now spending more time in their bathrooms vis-à-vis 10 years ago. An Ode to Opulence Bathrooms are now designed as an ode to intimate opulence. It’s the one place where people want to pamper themselves, by creating a personalised space. “We have seen a rise in demand for integrated toilets like Karing, which is priced at `3.65 lakhs. These toilets include state-of-the-art functions like heated seat, warm air dryer and deodorizer, automated opening and closing of the lid and seat,” says Salil Sadanandan, MD, Kohler India.

Rachna seconds Salil’s views, “The humble WC’s have evolved in their luxury version to have features that resemble a spacecraft. These uber-cool WC’s have no visible levers or buttons; all the controls are handled through a touchscreen remote control, which has features like flushing, cleaning, drying, music and heating. These combinations can be stored in user profiles for different family members as per their personal choices and preferences.” Tiles add a timeless elegance to any bathroom. Handmade and hand-painted tiles, custom-crafted mosaics, glass and metal tiles are in vogue. Imported bath tiles and fittings add to the notion of being exclusive along with an uber-luxe feel. Italian designer products, Japanese and German high-tech fittings are popular among Indian buyers. “While it is an individual choice—geometric shapes, designer tiles, natural wood finishes, plain ceramics, grey stone or burst of colour, heated floors—the bathroom flooring is very important” adds Gitesh.
