Description

Hi everyone, welcome to Home Design Chat with Nancy. My podcasts are  all about your home…how to plan, design and execute your remodel and much more.

When we talk about bathroom design, two themes always seem to show up: safety and luxury.

Homeowners want a space that feels spa-worthy, but they also want it to function comfortably and safely for everyday life.

And right in the middle of that conversation sits the ever-popular freestanding tub. People love it—but is the appeal really about luxury, or is there something deeper going on?

In today’s episode, we’re looking at how they fit into a safe and well-planned layout, and whether they’re the right choice for your next remodel.

Topics of discussion:

  • The risks of free-standing tubs
  • How risks can be mitigated
  • Free-standing tubs might work with design adjustments
  • More design ideas for a safe bathroom
