Bathrooms are an essential part of any home, and so is a bath. I mean seriously…. it is in the name. When going about choosing a bath for your bathroom you have many options, and it is understandable that you might be confused. But we have broken it down for you into the different types of bathtubs and what our recommendations are based on trends. Before a final verdict is given, you will be guided through the different options you have here at Portfolio Home Trends.
Freestanding
Freestanding bathtubs are not attached to any surrounding walls and can fit in almost any space, which means they are great for both using in large and small spaces. Furthermore, a freestanding bathtub can work as a centerpiece to your entire bathroom, whether you go for a modern or contemporary look, freestanding bathtubs provide a great structure for any bathroom.
Soaking
As indicated by the name one can expect these types of bathtubs to be deep and can also serve like a personal spa. When using these bathtubs, the goal for any person is to prioritize comfort and relaxation as deep bathtubs can also be made with jets which can turn your ordinary bathtub into a personal spa. Keep in mind though, the biggest downside is you might not want to ever leave one!
Alcove
The Alcove Bathtub is what is often described as a traditional tub, it is placed in a recess in the bathroom. This specific style is a great way for homeowners who have limited space but want to have something similar to a clawfoot tub within their washroom. Alcove bathtubs can give your bathroom an even better look if you use the right tile themes.
Corner
Similar to the alcove bathtub, the only difference with corner bathtubs is that they sit in corners rather than against the wall anywhere in the bathroom. Corner bathtubs provide a huge advantage for those who want to save space in their bathrooms. Moreover, if you are a fan of adding more storage or fixtures to your bathroom adding a corner bathtub is the perfect solution for you.
Walk In
Now we know that you might be thinking that a walk-in bathtub might not be as fancy as the others, but it is important to keep in mind that these were created to prioritize accessibility. But, here at Portfolio Home Trends we don't sacrifice elegance for functionality and accessibility. A great way to make these kinds of bathtubs both elegant and accessible is to add tiles to the surrounding walls of the tub and add mosaics on the floor as this can provide a luxury and elegant look, while also making it easier for seniors or people with disabilities to take a bath.
Now for the final verdict as arbitrary as it may sound, there is no specific bath that we recommend, it all depends on your taste, the size of your home and what matters to you the most. But one thing we know for sure is that you should never back out on the quality of the product that you use, which is why you should come visit Portfolio Home Trends when looking to design your bathroom. We carry high quality products and our services ensure that you never have to sacrifice luxury and elegance for functionality.
