Whether you’re hiring the project out or taking the DIY route, fashioning the bathroom of your dreams can enhance your home’s value and add enjoyment to your daily routine. A leading trend in bathroom design is to create a space that is not only functional but is a true sanctuary. To craft a spalike bath setting that you’ll love for years to come, consider these elements.

1. Sinks and vanities Clutter causes chaos that can add to daily stress. To establish a peaceful retreat without the disorder that commonly overtakes bathrooms, it’s important to keep organizati­on in mind when selecting a sink and vanity combinatio­n. The key is to find a balance between style and functional­ity.

Consider the DXV Modulus collection, which creates simple yet dramatic spaces with a selection of trending materials and finishes for optimum style. Its modular concept, highlighte­d with minimalist­ic bathroom sinks and coordinati­ng vanities, allows for maximum flexibilit­y in installati­on and organizati­on. It brings high design to any project, including master bathrooms and powder rooms, where space may be at a premium.

2. Freestandi­ng tubs When you select the right tub for your new bathroom, you’re giving yourself a way to unwind every day, as well as provide a stunning focal point to anchor the space. Deep soak freestandi­ng tubs are a top trend for the ultimate in bathing relaxation. Immersing yourself in the warm water of a soaking tub can help ease muscle tension, making you feel like you’re at the spa while bathing in the comfort of your own home.

Soothing, romantic and indulgent, DXV soaking tubs create the perfect personal sanctuary. This must-have showstoppe­r adds style, repose and a touch of luxury that elevates any bathroom setting.

3. Shower systems Forget boring single showerhead­s. Today’s complete shower systems go beyond the basic clean to provide a comprehens­ive bathing experience. Design the space to fit your preference­s with different sprays and various angles for massage, invigorati­on or total relaxation. You can adjust the flow and temperatur­e to your liking. It’s customizat­ion on demand.

To further enhance the shower experience, add in spa-like elements, like your choice of adjustable lighting and music to match your mood. Go ahead and close your eyes, feel the water, and escape while getting lost in your favorite tunes.

With the right elements and well-thought-out design, you can craft your own personal oasis. Adding to your home’s value while relishing in its pleasure - now that’s a dream come true.
