Corner Bath: Smart Choice?


Do you have a small bathroom but still want to have a bathtub installed in it? 

It might have sounded impossible till few years back. But now an easy solution to the problem has been sought. With the coming of the corner baths, you can have the luxury of having a bathtub in a small washroom as well. As the name implies, these bathtubs can be fitted to the corners of the bathrooms and save ample space in the bathroom.

There are different varieties in which corner baths are available and you can choose the one that you find best. After a long tiring day, it is a great pleasure to dip yourself in the corner bath and have a relaxing soak. This will help in shedding off all your tiredness and fatigue and rejuvenate and refresh you. You can also add essential oils and other fragrant elements in the corner bath to feel fresh. These baths come in different colors and patterns as well. You must buy the bath in sync with the bathroom color, floor tiles and wall tiles so that all the things look uniform and beautiful. A mismatching bathtub will ruin the entire decor and interiors of the bathroom.

The setting and theme of the bathroom plays a major role in selection of the corner bath for the washroom. If the bathroom has a traditional setting, the style and the design of the bath will be different than a bathroom that has a modern theme and setting. There are different kinds of accessories that are associated with corner baths and should be purchased keeping the bathtub in mind. There are many reputed brands that excel in the making of bathtubs that can be installed in the corners of bathrooms. The prices of the same vary depending on the materials used and the designs.

Today, corner baths are available in all shapes and sizes to be custom fit into any corner of the bathroom that you may wish. A corner bath may form the focal point of your bathroom suite with other bathroom fixtures designed around it, or it may simply add a twist to that awkward corner in your modern bathroom!

These bath tubs are made from a variety of durable and light weight materials, making it easier to drain, clean and dry out completely, and the promise of lasting unspoiled for years to come. You may add a number of fixtures to the corner bath such as showers, jets, doors and curtains to ensure a personalized spa experience.

In modern bathrooms, corner baths can be fitted with a Jacuzzi or whirlpool, shower jet systems and even hydro therapy massagers to help you relax and let go of all your inhibitions and stress. Just lie back, and let your senses take over!

If you’d rather enjoy your bath time with music and television, you may actually get these fittings tailor made onto your corner bath. Additionally you may request for modern technological innovations such as aroma oil dispensers, underwater LED lights, and tub jets to add to your extravagant bath experience in your corner bath.

A corner bath is an intelligent choice to bring together the extravagance of comfortable bathrooms and the convenience of small spaces such as those we live in today. A corner bath represents a luxury in the midst of space saving designs; a retreat you can return to every day to rid yourselves of daily troubles and stress.

Fun Fact: Jim Morrison Haunts Bathroom?

Jim Morrison, the deep-voiced front man for the band The Doors, was found dead in an apartment bathtub in Paris in 1971. But that doesn’t mean “The Lizard King” isn’t still making the rounds in one of his former West Hollywood haunts.

As devout fans gather at his Parisian grave looking for signs of the brooding singer and poet’s spirit, they might be better served if they visited a Mexican restaurant at 8512 Santa Monica Blvd.

“You feel it here almost every day, throughout the entire place, but especially near this spot,” says Christina Arena, general manager of Mexico, a colorfully festive restaurant.

And just what spot does Christina refer to? The unisex toilet.

The building Mexico occupies was formerly “The Doors Workshop,” an office space/crash pad/recording studio used by the band in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

And the toilet? It was the actual vocal booth where Jim Morrison recorded the classic “L.A. Woman” in 1970.

Today, a framed plaque featuring the album cover, gold record and hand-scrawled lyrics hangs outside the famous loo. Fans come from all over the world to pay homage to Morrison at this sacred site, and they may get more than they bargained for.

“His presence hangs very heavy here,” Christina says. “It gets eerie sometimes.”

So what do you think? Have you ever experienced a haunting in your smallest room?

You know how it is in the morning. Your alarm goes off for work and you hope, as you dip your toe from under the covers, you're greeted with warmth. Sure enough our bedrooms might be toasty but by the time you reach your bathroom for that morning shower the toasty feeling has left you.
