The Wet Room is a popular bathroom design layout in Europe, and become increasingly popular in the United States. A wet room is typically all tiled, with all faucets/fixtures open. Showers may have a glass panel to block general splashing, but the room is really open. This makes a small bathroom seem much more spacious and open.
Some cautions for a wet room-
1. Make sure you have a reputable contractor/plumber who can work the drainage correctly.
2. A handshower is a must- cleaning the tile room will be a breeze with a handshower.
3. Consider resale value- a wet room is a great luxury feature, but if this is the only bathroom in your home, another homeowner may not be comfortable with the open layout.
Our vote is that a Wet Room is not too modern for a New England home, and creates a unique bonus in your home. This design style is also great for a bathroom off a pool, near a mudroom, or anywhere where it would be easy to hose off children.

ReplyDeleteGood to enjoy the plunge of a luxory bathroom. One of the most stimulating experience I have ever had naked was in a hotel in Las Vegas. And if you,ve never tried out a wet sauna, I can,t recommend it highly enough.
There,s a spa in the hotel where you can sit until it,s hot enough to fry an egg on your leg and then pull a chain and get deluged with freezing water. Once you can breathe again - 20 seconds later - you can do the same thing over again and again. This is the perfect way to wash away the memory of loss at the blackjack table and effective as a hangover cure
