The HOME SPA Experience

Just because you have a small bathroom to renovate doesn't mean you can't have luxurious amenities... Like a Mr. Steam unit  , in fact .... You SHOULD incorporate them to make up for the lack of space.  Here is one of our projects where we didn't let the size of the bathroom hold us back from creating a Spa retreat for our client.   Adding a Mr. Steam unit with aroma therapy was as must. It is not only a health benefit , it also instantly increases the equity of your home , so it's a win, win. Not to mention the luxury of having a "spa" at home.

Here's just a few of our favorites benefits associated with Steam Bathing are :

• Respiratory Health -opens up nasal passages
• Skin Care - cleanses the skin

• Physical Wellness - increases blood circulation

There are SO many other benefits and reasons why a Mr. Steam unit is a MUST in your next renovation...check out this link here and see all the benefits for yourself.

This photo below shows you a BEFORE PHOTO of the renovated bathroom with steam unit above , we did push wall back 18" simply to get more counter space at the vanity , but the shower/ tub area stayed the same 36" .

TECHNOLOGY AND ADVANCEMENTS :
Having a steam unit is one thing.... having aromatherapy with it is even better .... BUT Mr. Steam units don't Stop there.... You can also have Chroma Therapy system and also add Audio system .  Best part is you can control from your smart phones.   We just finished a project using the Audio System with Mr.Steam in shower ceiling speakers ( which we will be photographing soon) and our client can not get enough of their new bathroom.  We have given them a fully customized home sanctuary . As Mr. Steam describes on their website and gets into the history of it .... "Our contemporary need to find a tranquil escape in steam has extensive and long-standing roots". With latest the technology and advancements in plumbing , it is now so much more readily available to us ... literally at our fingertips.

Mr. Steam is one the sponsors for Modenus BlogtourKBIS Orlando .  I was very thankful to be included in this sponsored trip .  I have always been a BIG Fan of their product and have been using it since I started in the design industry 20 something years ago . So I write this blogpost from first hand experience because I LOVE their product , NOT because they are a sponsor. I have spec'd their product many, many times and all my clients have been very pleased. I LOVE everything they do and stand for .  WE LOVE Mr. Steam,  because they make us all FEEL GOOD ! 

Vanity Cabinetry re-imagined by DXV and OH! the NEW TUB!

So excited to see brands this year at KBIS get creative with fun storage solutions integrated in cabinetry like drawers sections, versatile moving parts to cabinetry to make them more versatile and functional.   One Brand in particular this year at KBIS was DXV, and not just because they happen to be one of our sponsors for Modenus Blogtour KBIS2018, BUT seriously, they knocked it out of the park with their minimalist design ... offering maximum flexibility in installation.  It truly feels like a custom vanity I would design for a client.  What they did is awesome.  Check it out.... It's called DXV Modulus Collection.

Which by the way include lighting and mirrors too! 

 Also LOVE that they offer the lavatory sink in either white or smoke concrete and sizes range from 21"wide to 55"wide !  

 

Another FUN detail is the coordinating solid surface accessory tray that is designed to integrate perfectly onto the adjoining transition zone. This rectangular tray can easily be moved and stored in the matching wall-mounted DXV Modulus vanity or storage cabinet drawers.

DXV Modulus Double Lavatory and Accessories

Their entire plumbing fixture line for this collection is great!  Streamline and Chic.  Lines are soft and proportions are perfect.  It has a really timeless look which as you probably know is what I LOVE most about anything in design.   Check out their site and see for yourself.

Oh and I just have to share this gorgeous SPA TUB from DXV too.... It's a drop in airbath not on the market quiet yet... it just debut at KBIS .   It has an elongated spout accentuated by light , the water falls gently on your shoulders as you rest your head on the comfy pillow, you can then turn on your air bubble or not for an incredble spa experience.

Without a doubt one of my favorites at KBIS this Year !
