Island Baths: Your Bathroom’s New Best Friend (That Also Looks Amazing)
Let’s cut to the chase: bathrooms can be boring. Tiles, taps, towels… snooze. But what if your bathroom could wow you? That’s where island baths come in. Forget cramming a tub into a corner. Imagine a bath that’s the star of the room, like a sculpture you can actually use. It’s not just about getting clean—it’s about feeling like you’ve stepped into a space that’s yours.
Why Go Island? Let’s Skip the Fluff
You’ve seen those bathrooms on Pinterest. The ones where the bath sits smack in the middle, looking like it’s too fancy to actually use. Here’s the truth: island baths aren’t just for show. They’re practical. Need to bathe the kids? No more hip-checking the wall while you reach for the shampoo. Hosting a rare adult-only soak? Light a candle, pour a drink, and pretend you’re in a five-star resort.
But what if your bathroom’s the size of a broom closet? No shame. Our built-in baths are here to save the day. They’re like the sensible cousin of island baths—still stylish, but happy to hug a wall.
Materials: Pick Your Fighter
Baths are like jeans. You want them to look good, but they’d better hold up. Let’s break down your options:
Acrylic – The Low-Key Hero
Lightweight, budget-friendly, and comes in more shapes than a Play-Doh factory. Our acrylic bathtubs are perfect if you’re after a tub that won’t give your floor joists a nervous breakdown. Pro tip: Pair one with a waterfall tap for instant luxe vibes.
Stone – The “I’ve Made It” Flex
Yes, stone baths are heavy. Yes, they cost more. But walk into a bathroom with a stone tub, and suddenly you’re not in suburbia anymore—you’re in a spa in Santorini. Our stone baths collection is for people who want their bath to whisper, “I have my life together.”
Steel – The Cool Minimalist
Sleek, shiny, and colder than your ex’s heart (until you fill it with hot water). Steel baths are for the “less is more” crowd. Check out our steel baths range if you’re into industrial vibes or just really hate scrubbing limescale.
Size & Shape: No Guesswork Needed
Small spaces? No problem. Our small baths are like Tardises—bigger on the inside. Perfect for apartments or en suites where every centimetre counts.
Big bathrooms? Go long. Our baths over 1700mm are basically adult-sized paddling pools. Add a bath tray for your book and wine glass, and retirement just came early.
Shape matters:
-
Oval baths: Soft, romantic, “I definitely do yoga” energy. See our oval baths.
-
Rectangular baths: Clean lines, modern, “I color-code my pantry” vibes. Peek here.
-
Round baths: Quirky, fun, “I still have a lava lamp” personality. Dive into our round baths.
Design Hacks Even Your Mate Dave Could Nail
Colour Rules
White baths never die. Our white baths range is foolproof. But if you’re feeling spicy, try a matte black tub. It’s like the leather jacket of bathrooms.
Lighting = Mood
Harsh overhead lights are for interrogation rooms. Go dimmable, add candles, and suddenly Tuesday night feels like a date night.
Accessories Aren’t Optional
A bath caddy isn’t just for Instagram. It’s for holding your wine, phone, and that overpriced face mask you swore you’d use.
