Design the ultimate tub setting with inspiration from Vancouver’s top designers.
When designing the bathroom, it is essential to choose elements that help the space reach its functional potential, while also creating a Zen vibe to promote relaxation. Here, some of the city’s best interior designers share the latest trends in showers and tubs.
Mixed Materials
When choosing a tub for a stellar bathroom design, as much importance lies within the setting as with the actual piece. In order to achieve a luxe feel, consider where the tub will be placed and what role the backdrop can play. By mixing materials in the design, different finishes are able to play off one another to achieve the ultimate high-end effect.

Black is the New Black
One of the strongest design movements happening in bathrooms for this year is the bold return to black as a primary palette. The moody colourway offers a high-glamour effect to even the simplest space, and becomes a stunning statement when incorporated into feature pieces like the tub.

Organic curves
The silhouette of the modern tub has shifted from streamlined and angular to a softer, more organic shape. The fluid lines of the curved tubs offer a more ergonomic place to relax the body while creating a more open overall feel to the room.
