How to Choose a Luxury Bath

So you’ve decided to take the plunge and invest in a luxury bath. Do you have a design in mind? There are many styles of luxury bath design to choose from but so much choice can make it difficult when deciding which best suits your taste and requirements. We are here to help you and show you just how to choose a luxury bath.

Style and Function

For obvious reasons there are a number of factors you need to take into account when choosing a luxury bath design. Not only do you want a tub that will complement your bathroom environment, you want one that is functional and that suits your bathing needs. So here’s how to choose a luxury bath and some of the factors you might like to consider before making your decision.

Bath Tub Size

First and foremost you should consider the size of the tub in relation to your bathroom. If space is limited then a panelled bath may be ideal as it can be fitted in a corner or set against a wall, or you may prefer luxurious, space-saving deep soaking tub. The latter tend to take up less floor space than conventional bath tubs and yet they provide a relaxing and supremely comfortable bathing experience. What’s more, these Japanese style deep soaking tubs take less water to fill and they expose less water to the air so they retain heat for longer – all of which make these luxury bath tub options highly efficient in terms of water, space and energy!

Bath Tub Style and Design

Although Cabuchon has won a number of prestigious bath design awards over the years, our philosophy is that function should always come first. However, that’s not to say that style should ever be an afterthought. Your bathroom should be a tranquil sanctuary and your surroundings are especially important when you are relaxing and washing away the stress of modern living. Often, the bath is the main feature within your bathroom so choose carefully. A free standing bath is ideal if you really want your bath to make a statement and be the central focus of your bathroom. Other style options include deep soaking tubs and built-in baths (inset and undermounted) – which, collectively, offer a wealth of styles including traditional, contemporary and Minimalist.

Here at Cabuchon we provide a range of bath designs that are available in any conceivable colour. Because all of our bath tubs can be customised, you can choose your perfect bath design and specify the precise colour of your choice. Your custom designed bath can also come in a choice of finishes: high gloss or matt. Rag rolling or faux marble is available as an optional extra for a truly noteworthy bath design.

Bath Purpose and Function

We would always advise that the perfect bath design depends first upon its functionality and how it suits your lifestyle. If you’re the romantic type, you might want to consider two seater baths designed for comfortable shared bathing. If you’re the sporty type, then you might value a bath tub that will sooth those post-workout aches and pains, in which case, a hydrotherapy bath is likely to be the ideal choice. We can incorporate hydrotherapy systems into most of our custom luxury bath designs. Of course, for the full sensory effect, you can add a chromotherapy system; using controllable coloured lights to aid relaxation, enhance your mood or stimulate your mind.
