We are a far cry today from the basins that were used to bath with and the sponge washing part of earlier days.
Bathrooms instead of being the hidden areas of homes can be the selling attraction of the home in all that is presented in such an elegant and design orientated way.
The variety is a delight to the builder in shape and size.
With the different bigger structures of the bathroom come the gadgets, and accessories in every shape and size, colour and character.
Tiles can change the whole atmosphere of the bathroom from modern to old fashioned and Victorian, from deco to retro or shabby chic or just a muted pale shade to create a restful atmosphere to relax in.
Even toilet paper comes to the fore in the bathroom as the variety of toilet paper holders abound from the practical to the picturesque.
