There are two rooms which undeniably get the most use in your home: the kitchen and the bathroom. These rooms harbor our most intimate moments, from the sociability of the kitchen to the sanctuary of the bathroom. As the summer is gently beginning to fade into fall, most of us are ready to retreat after a season full of vacations, outdoor activities and social events. What better way to pamper yourself than remodeling your bathroom for ultimate relaxation?
It is suggested that a bathroom gets replaced in a home about every 20 years, accounting for the general wear and tear. A nice comfortable bathroom can completely change the ambiance of a home-- not to mention the return on investment for those looking to eventually sell-- and can add a whole other dimension of luxury. When remodeling a bathroom, the appliances needed are generally the same: toilets, faucets, tubs, sink basins, shower heads and cabinetry, leaving little room for originality. So, where can you implement your personalized, artful touch?
Invest in your accessories. With little limited options to play with in a room that can make or break your home, this is where you want to invest. Some designers have made the design of faucets and waterworks into an artistic masterpiece, such as Lefroy Brooks.
His designs pull from intricate research in the history and design of faucets “...[f]rom their domestic origins in the late Victorian era through the mechanical angularity of the Edwardians, the curvaceous turn of the century French, the colonial twenties, the Deco thirties, the streamline fifties, the starry sixties to the nineteen seventies when it all seemed to begin again.” He has taken an artistic eye to everyday pieces of hardware that tell the stories of homes and homeowners through time.
“His pieces are authentic recreations of design eras from the past century that recreate a story for the homeowner. All of the collections are triple plated with 100% brass fittings providing one of the most luxurious product experiences in the market today. Our clients are impressed with the luxury that Lefroy brings them in the use of our shower systems with thermostatic valves that are some of the most powerful in the industry, maximizing at an output of 12 gallons per minute.” ”-Alexandra Anderson, Assistant Showroom Manager, Lefroy Brooks Chicago.
Your home is your sanctuary and your wash closet the center of the most quiet and private moments of your day, it deserves to be just as luxurious as you.
