Wide Open Bathroom Water Spaces

A big functional design trend for bathrooms is the “open water space.” Creating a water space is an increasingly popular concept. In this 2019 bathroom trend, both bathtub and shower are in the same open area of the bathroom. This innovative layout certainly allows the restroom to look much bigger than it is – with only a simple glass barrier, framed in either golden or dark tones, separating the water space from the rest of the bathroom.  It’s an especially great design feature for smaller bathrooms, as it enlarges the space tremendously.

And if you’ve got a furry, four-legged friend in the family, you’ve probably wished there was an easier way to bathe it at home. If so, you might consider an open-concept shower that allows you to walk your pet right in without lifting it over a cumbersome wall. No more strained back muscles or tripping. Protect against falls (for you and your buddy) with a non-slip shower floor. You’ll also want to add a detachable showerhead or handheld, waist-high spray unit to easily rinse away soap and dirt.

So look into creating this “open water space” in your bathroom.  Both you and your pooch will appreciate your efforts.
