Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Design Ideas for Bathrooms, 2nd Edition, presents a range of ideas for creating an up-to-date bathroom for pampering or simple practicality. Readers will find many excellent examples of master baths, family baths, powder rooms, and accessible designs. There is complete coverage of the latest fixtures, including desirable spa amenities such as jetted tubs and showers, steam devices and saunas, rain bars, and sprayers, plus a full representation of finishing materials from high-end looks in stone to affordable plastic laminates. Other targeted topics include vanities and storage, lighting, and ventilation. Additional helpful information explains how to make design decisions and product choices based on lifestyle needs. Lots of "Smart Tips" and fact-filled sidebars provide information at a glance.

Synopsis:

After the kitchen, the bathroom is the best investment a homeowner can make, especially in a tight real estate market. And, again like a kitchen, bathrooms can be deal breakers if there are too few or they are outdated. So the success--and ultimate value--of a new bathroom depends on making the right choices when it comes to fixtures and finishes, bathing options, layout, and storage. Design Ideas for Bathrooms, Second Edition informs homeowners about the latest products and trends in bath design. In a market that offers an overwhelming selection, it's important to know what differentiates one product or finish, for example, from another, and how to choose what is best suited to your lifestyle, needs, and budget. Contains 500 photos that showcase the newest tubs, showers, fixtures, faucets--from no-frills to spa features. Includes more than 50 sample floor plans and layouts for master and family baths, three-quarter baths, and powder rooms.
