Bathrooms With Luxury Features

Splurging on high-end fixtures and custom finishes, like gold and crystal accents, is a beautiful way to add a touch of luxury and romance to a bathroom. Design by Peter Salerno

Bathrooms are becoming more than a place to bathe. Today's homeowners are turning their bathrooms into relaxing sanctuaries, complete with furniture, televisions, fireplaces and more. In this Moroccan-style bath designed for lounging and bathing, a custom chaise sits on an antique Oushak rug. The wall is covered in hand-cut Moroccan tiles, and the tub features a custom-designed wood canopy. Design by Chris Barrett

Different sizes of Carrara marble for the bathroom floor, shower and vaulted arch above the tub infuses Old World opulence into the space. Design by Mark Williams

Nothing says luxury like stepping onto a warm tile floor after a hot shower or bath. Radiant heating mats can be placed below tiles for a reasonable price — about $600 or less in a small 5x9 bathroom. Image courtesy of WarmlyYours
