Bathroom Decorating with Beautiful Bathtub and Space-Saving Shower

Transparent ceiling for an evening under the stars is quite common bathroom interior decorating,  but the bath from Thailand is a real surprise.

Bathroom Design, located in Bangkok, offer translucent bathtubs equipped with a soft light illumination for bathroom decorating.

The bathtub looks wonderful.

And it's possible to order the bathroom bathtub with a different lighting pattern, not just the 'night sky.'

This innovative bathroom  decor concept has a great potential and promising future.

The new bath shines with 360 built-in LED light bathroom decoration, and has a special sensory spa-bathtub control system to regulate the water temperature and bathtub fixtures, saving about 60% of water.

Probably bathtub-water saving is more important for people in the countries with limited water resources, but economical bathroom decorating (home decorating with LED lights) sounds like a GREEN home idea that can be used for bathroom decorating with energy-saving LED lights anywhere in the world, including Canada.

Whirlpool

Today's whirlpool is a great-grandson of a hot spring. Modern acrylic bathtub designs can satisfy any bathroom decorating fantasies.

Acrylic bathtub contemporary shapes decorate the bathrooms like nothing else.  Whirlpool-bathtubs are great for massage and aromatherapy also.

There are three types of whirlpools depending on the kind of massage they provide: water jet, air bubbles and the combination of both for relaxation and stress relieve.

The massage bath stimulates blood circulation, removes toxins from the body, strengthens and refreshes the skin.

Advanced bathroom bathtub models have a remote control, can talk with their master in several languages, control bathtub faucets, report spa-bathtub readiness for function and comment on errors in human actions.

Surprisingly enough, they do not consume a lot of energy, just about the same amount as an electrical iron needs. By the way, whirlpool baths are often called hot tubs and jacuzzi that is not quite correct. Jacuzzi is well-known Italian company that produced whirlpool, the first in the world spa-bathtub.

Cast iron tub

Modern cast iron tubs are no longer the old 'monsters.'  Stylish cast iron bathtub models create elegant bathroom decor.

They have thin walls, but they are very strong and durable. They are perfectly smooth, and an enamel does not lose its color for years.

Cast iron bathtubs often have anti-slip coated handles on the sides, and their legs' height can be adjusted. Light steel bathtubs are much lighter and cheaper.

They are 'loud' and do not keep the heat well, but a cast iron bathtub is an effective, practical and stylish bathroom decorating.

Acrylic bathtub

Sometimes an acrylic tub is more expensive than a cast iron bathtub, but acrylic bathtubs are available in any shape, from classical to triangular, and of any color, providing unlimited choices for bathroom interior decorating.

It is easy to make holes in an acrylic bathtub, so the installation of additional bathroom fixtures, advanced bathroom faucets, side handles, bathroom decorations, like a glass bottom or under water lights, is not a problem these days.

Acrylic bathtub cleaning and small repair

To save shiny look and whiteness of the acrylic bathtub or acrylic shower you should not ever use acetone, ammonia or formaldehyde to clean acrylic surface. Acrylic bath tubs and showers require a special care, because this relatively soft material can be scratched and chipped.

Detergents and cleaners containing abrasive components are not recommended for cleaning acrylic bath tubs and shower stalls. They leave minor scratches on acrylic surfaces, so always use soft cloth and neutral liquid cleaners that are acrylic-friendly and follow the instructions provided by a manufacturer.

However, small scratches can be repaired. The spot on an acrylic shower or bath surfaces can be polished with a fine sandpaper and then with a toothpaste or a special wax for acrylic. Deep scratches can be filled with liquid acrylic and then polished also.

Showers to save space

Bath shower is an excellent space-saving design solution for bathrooms decorating.

Practical acrylic bathroom shower can be placed on pallets that are installed on the bathroom floor and have height-adjustable legs.

Transparent shower wall and shower door are very attractive  bathroom decor that makes the bathroom more spacious and help stage for sale also. Fluted or frosted shower glass doors with various designs look great in the bathrooms.

A convenient telescopic bar is a nice addition to a standard walk-in shower. There are also standard shower stalls that have nozzles with different water effects and built-in seats.

A modern multi-functional shower unit can please you with aromatherapy or contrast shower effects. It elegantly decorates and saves space in your bathroom.

If you like massage, before buying the hi-tech massage shower stall pay attention to the minimum water pressure required for this bathroom shower system and compare it with what you have at home. Otherwise, the expensive modern shower will work as an ordinary one.

Acrylic bathtubs-showers are not only functional items, they became beautiful decorating elements in modern bathroom interior design. Bathtubs and showers are very personal, unique  bathrooms decorating that demonstrates a certain lifestyle and help design effective and beautiful bathroom interiors.
