  • Free Standing Tubs Make for a Elegant Spa Bathroom Design

    People have long associated the amazing look of a sleek, vintage-style claw foot bathtub with luxury. Freestanding tubs like these make for a classic, open bathroom design that feels much like a spa.

    A freestanding tub may cause some homeowners to balk. Most people are used to built-in tubs that are affixed to the wall. But allow yourself to think outside the box, if only for a moment. If a spa-inspired bathroom is what you desire, a freestanding tub will be key in making that dream a reality. If you need insight on how to make a freestanding tub work, we’ve got plenty of ideas for you!

    First of all, the area surrounding a freestanding tub works wonders in making your bath space look much larger than a typical tub would. These tubs are notorious for showing off great fixtures. From polished chrome to brushed bronze, a great tub in the middle of the floor is a great way to show off antique or vintage style with your choice of finish.

    If your design preference is more traditional, stand alone tubs are ideal for creating a look and feel that’s classic, but still up to date and totally relevant. In order to bring even more attention to a great tub, an elegant lighting fixture, particularly a chandelier, can take a bathroom from drab to fab in no time.

    If clutter is an issue in your bathroom, a freestanding tub will nip that in the bud quickly. There’s nowhere to store your bath products, so the tub area will always remain neat and orderly – just as it should be.
