Product Description
Product Description
The bathroom is quite possibly the most overlooked room in the home. Nevertheless, this smaller space is being increasingly upgraded and needs to be functional and attractive, with the right amount of storage. Whether it is being used for a quick shower or long soak in the tub, there are many aesthetic and practical considerations to bear in mind. This is where Plan Your Bathroom comes in. In this follow-up to the very sucessful Color Your Home and Plan Your Kitchen, Plan Your Bathroom uses a similar accessible and innovative format to help with all of the key decisionmaking.
After an introduction to bathroom ergonomics and layout, including how to work with what you can't change easily such as plumbing and windows, Plan Your Bathroom looks at the major choices to be made relating to baths, showers, hand basins, and toilets. This is followed by chapters devoted to floors and walls, color, accessories, and gadgets. The final mix and match section contains sample floors, fittings, and walls for endless combinations, as well as tear-out wish lists for readers to plan what to buy and where to source it.
Hundreds of full-color photographs, including examples from leading manufactures, provide a complete visual catalog that will inspire anybody to turn their bathroom into a spa.

Great book for visualizing your new bathroom, Jan 20 2007
By Margie D. "book junkee" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Plan Your Bathroom: Hundreds Of Design Combinations At-A-Glance (Hardcover)
I love this book! It's great for all kinds of bath ideas including color combinations. The book is nicely arranged with tabs for easy access. What is especially nice about this book is the back section with "mix and match combinations." You'll be able to see what is best for you, whether it's a very small master bath like we are remodeling or the grand luxury bath of many people's dreams. A very handy resource for most remodelers..

A Confusing Book, May 15 2008
By Judith Orlopp - Published on Amazon.com
Unlike the last reviewer, I really didn't enjoy this book - one of three I purchased on bathroom remodeling.
I thought that the color suggestions were restrictive, and didn't particularly like the planning choices. The book didn't inspire me at all.
Listmania!
