There is nothing quite like those old-fashioned claw foot bathtubs from yesteryear to make a bathroom look and feel classic and homey.
Many bathroom remodel contractors are finding that claw foot bathtubs are becoming very desirable again, as are other types of standalone and “statement” bathtubs.
Today, most homes have standard bathtubs set into wall surrounds, but if you are considering doing some bathroom remodeling, why not make a statement?
What Are Statement Bathtubs?
Statement bathtubs are aptly named, as they are tubs that really transform any bathroom space and set the style for the entire room; they make a real statement as soon as someone walks into the room!
Statement tubs consist of any standalone bathtub that sets the style for the decor of the bathroom, whether that is minimalist, more traditional, or even eclectic.
Set away from corners and walls but frequently in front of windows or feature wall treatments, statement tubs are just as useful as any other bathtub but with the appearance of luxury that can reinvent any bathroom.
Some statement bathtubs may even be positioned in the middle of the floor in especially larger spaces, since the main goal when positioning these tubs is to use the most attention-getting location.
Many Statement Bathrub Choices
In terms of style, there are many to choose from.
-
White porcelain in various shapes and sizes, some footed and others on pedestals right on the floor, are simple, minimalist, and very popular as they can be used with almost any decor.
-
Decorative floor standing tubs made from copper and other metals are other popular choices for adding some bathroom remodeling style.
-
Soaking tubs made from other materials like stone, marble, and even wood, all available in various shapes and sizes, offer amazing options for making a stylish statement, too.
-
Step-up designs, rectangular and square, and organic-looking carved out vessels are all possibilities today, as it seems there is no end to the creativity in available statement bathtubs today.
The great thing about making a statement with a beautiful and luxurious bathtub is that they are just as easy for bathroom remodel contractors to install than any other bath.
Standalone statement tubs are also easier to keep clean, as they are not built into plastic or tile surrounds that get grimy with mildew in the seams and grout.
