I received this book last night. Sat down with the intention of quickly thumbing through it, and ended up reading the entire book from cover to cover. It's excellent! Lots of great tips and things to consider before starting a project. It covers both practical (functional) issues, which are so important in bath design, along with lots of attractive, very current aesthetic ideas and suggestions, and also breaks down various design elements like sinks, faucets, etc. It does tend to feature larger, more lavish baths (along with a few very appealing 1/2 baths) but the design principles are strong and pics very inspiring. The ideas could be scaled down and applied to a smaller bath to great effect.I am looking to upgrade one of my existing baths to make it more spa-like without changing the overall layout of the room. Trying to get a good soak in my current bathtub, with only 9 inches to the overflow, is not working for me. It's basically like sitting in a puddle. I found lots of good ideas in this book, as well as many tips that will be very helpful to me as I plan and execute this project. Highly recommended!
