This is my favorite book in the Rockport spaces series. It is packed with ideas and tips and shows a wide range of styles including everything you need to help turn your bathing space into a luxurious and relaxing sanctuary.The book offers great information on choosing a bathtub and shower, using the basic principles of Feng Shui and solutions for working in a small space. Safety, lightning, windows, cleaning advice and proper heating are also covered. It gives you design secrets and offers many interesting ideas like putting a sofa in you bath as well.I love the sections on creating a home health spa and exotic soaks. The idea of adding salts to you bath to make your own floating tank was fantastic.The pictures are large and informatively captioned. A few baths are included for their historical design significance and are not really practical for most homes. Also, I can't say that I would want an exact copy of any of these. However, I love many of their elements, materials and layouts and am sure I will be incorporating many of them into my home. This is a wonderful book that is sure to help to anyone trying to create their own slice of bathing heaven.
