Neighborhood Spy: A Parade of Powder Rooms

One of 101 Bathrooms from Dwell

It’s the room society talks about the least, and yet we all spend a great deal of time there, primping and prepping and making sure we look and feel our best before we go out and face the world each day. Today, we thought we’d pay homage to the unsung hero of every home: the bathroom. So, we put on our robes and slippers and perused the web for loo-related links worth noting.

First, there’s the ubiquitous 101 Bathrooms page from Dwell (sample shown above) with subpages dedicated to different kinds of materials, from ceramic and glass to wood and metal, all arranged to provide tips and ideas for restroom renovations.

Bathtubs with televisions built in? Indeed, confirms the team at Furniture Fashion. This takes laziness to a whole new level:

For those in need of a little more design inspiration, House Beautiful offers up a visual feast of 50 designer bathrooms, including this sunny Mediterranean sample:

Elsewhere, the eco-conscious brains behind FresHome are sharing some interesting intel on the environmentally friendly, space-saving toilet/washbasin combo from Roca…

…the helpful folks at Apartment Therapy are sharing tips for installing laundry appliances inside a bathroom

…and lastly: looking to update your shower and its surroundings with some instant classics known to stand the test of time? Look no further than Kohler’s bathroom catalog, which rarely disappoints.

Happy renovating or resting this weekend — whichever you choose!
