I want a square bath that is about 1-1.5m2, to recess into the bathroom floor. Do you know any suitable models?

There’s a company called Omnitub that specialises in deep Japanese-style soaking baths for the modern home. The duo model (which is great for sharing) measures 10501050600mm and is supplied without a seat so that you can submerge yourself completely into the hot, bubbly water. For added luxury, treat yourself to the whirlpool version and look forward to enjoying hours of indulgent relaxation. Contact 01761 462 641 |
www.omnitub.co.uk for more info.

If space is at a premium, create a bath-cum-shower environment by hanging a large, chrome ceiling-mounted head directly above the tub. The high sides and deep space will capture most of the spray so that your bathroom is stylish, functional and easy to maintain.
The ‘sunken’ look is definitely on-trend and aesthetically, this style is eye-catching and elegant. However, when fitting a recessed bath, you must seek the help of a professional installer or plumber as the floor will need to be properly reinforced.

I also found the Aquaplus Solutions Alfa Form bath made of resin-based Scene in 160160cm and 170170cm sizes; for those seeking a truly indulgent, spa-like experience, a chromatherapy option is also available.
It costs from £4,600. Visit www.aquaplussolutions.com to find out more. There is also the Colacril Dual Square bathtub in the Atmosfere by Romano Adolini collection, which measures 12001200mm and is made of a polymineral composite. Visit www.colacril.it
