10 houses with stunning freestanding bathtubs

10 Oct 2022  •  Specification  •  By Surabhi Patil

As the trend of tiny homes grows popular, bathtubs are becoming a rare sight, if not considered a pure luxury. Moreover, the demands of everyday life often tag bathrooms as secondary places, only meant for one’s daily regimen. 

 

However, if cautiously designed, these spaces can enliven the otherwise monotonous experiences, serving as a respite for leisure and rest. Going beyond, a freestanding bathtub can become the highlight of any room it is placed in.

 

Whether it is a sculptural piece, radiating glam and chic vibes or a simple, curvy white tub placed against a large window, bathtubs and everyday aesthetics go hand-in-hand. The following selection features 10 such stunning freestanding bathtubs for relaxing and pampering yourself.
