4 Luxury Bathroom Features You May Not Want to Live Without
These bathroom features will take any luxury remodel and kick it up several notches – providing years of high-end pleasure you won’t want to miss.
Customize your shower with U By Moen
Don’t you wish you could just hit a button and step into a shower that operated with the perfect temperature? Now, you can.
U by Moen allows you to pre-program your water temperature and other features so all you have to do is tap a button on your smartphone or the shower’s controller - and step into perfection. That includes the temperature(s) you prefer when you shower in the morning, as well as the day’s wind-down temps. And, as long as you’re aiming for shower perfection, we recommend adding steam shower features for the ultimate, luxurious upgrade.
Enjoy the unique exposure of Sonoma Forge’s distinctive shower features
In the beginning, all showers utilized exposed plumbing and connections, braced on an interior, waterproof wall, to deliver hot and cold water to the indoor shower space. Sonoma Forge, a luxury shower designer, capitalizes on the unique, antique-turned-contemporary look of exposed plumbing for their shower designs.
What was once a real-life novelty has now been re-spun into a contemporary version – one that can be used indoors or outdoors, in a shower enclosure or in an open, curbless shower concept – with multiple metal finishes to choose from.
The distinct look of exposed plumbing compliments any bathroom design style imaginable – from antique/traditional and transitional, to industrial, modern, chic and eclectic.
A Freestanding Shower from Drummonds
If you prefer a shower with an enclosure, and aren’t up for the full steam shower option, take a look at the freestanding, f="https://www.probuilder.com/thurso-shower-drummonds">Thurso shower from Drummonds. This gorgeous, barely-there design comes in a wide range of finishes and allows you to have a luxury shower with minimal space required.
The Thurso is especially desirable for those with smaller bathrooms or who want to add a large soak tub in their bathroom space.
Choose rolling rather than sliding doors
The Rotolo Bypass Rolling Shower Door combine a contemporary look with smooth, rolling functionality. The minimal header and semi-frameless, streamlined design makes it almost invisible, ideal for showing off your shower area’s gorgeous tilework. Two separate rollers and an anti-jump mechanism ensures smooth open and closing every time. The beautiful chrome finish and a curved shower bar add to the shower door’s stylish appeal.
