POLL: See-through bathroom - yay or nay?

7 years ago

Crittall windows have long been a staple on trendy-features-to-have-in-your-home lists and they're becoming a popular interior as well as exterior choice too. For instance, bathrooms are recently adopting them in favour of the standard solid wall. But for many people, style falls behind privacy concerns in this case, where a closed off space is still the preference.

So where do you stand when it comes to a see-through bathroom wall - yay or nay?

I totally love crittall windows, whether they're internal or external. But what a bore to have to keep the interior ones sparkling clean. The amount of steam coming from the shower or bath would mean that you'd have to clean them every time. Life's too short. But it does look gorgeous.

I already hate this concept in hotels - would never put one in my own bathroom

POLL: Non-slip shower stickers - yay or nay?
Q
Comments (13)
Believe it or not I saw a small sized shower non slip mat in white with vertical or horizontal lines depending on mat placing in the shower . I am a true believer in safety first!! How many people will come into your bathroom to pass judgement?? I've fallen in my one person shower had a massive bruise for over a week, it could have been so much worse !? Look around to find a non slip bath mat you may be surprised at the stylish ones around now. Jmo limrie ☺️

POLL: Yay or nay - open plan kitchens?
Q
Comments (206)
We are often approached by clients who are creating an open plan kitchen, dining and living area. To overcome some of the issues we make cabinetry which can hide away the usual clutter found in a busy kitchen. Bi-fold and pocketing doors are great in this instance as ovens and even sinks can be hidden away, making the cabinetry seem more like a piece of furniture than a kitchen. Our clients love being able to change the look of a space in an instance! It is crucial to make sure you choose your appliances carefully, i.e. a quiet dishwasher and a good extractor are of huge benefit here. As long as the space is thoughtfully planned there is no reason that it shouldn't work functional and aesthetically.

im on the fence with this one as i like both, if the faux are good faux, but i get loads of free real flowers in the spring and summer as i end up with loads from the garden which would end up expensive if had to buy them every month, but i enjoy my faux when i can not get nice free fresh ones, so i would go for both

I voted Yeh! As they are stunning however most people are not comfortable with this design.

There are lots of wonderful places where crittal windows can be used; the bathroom is definitely not one of them. This is not a great idea, especially where you have two places used for the same thing i.e. privacy and relaxation - seems to defeat the purpose of both!

I think it works for certain lifestyles and in certain situations. For example in this loft in vancouver - although the WC was separate

The bathroom should be a private space for the individuals.

Open space in a private bedroom creates a feeling of freedom..

No thanks - I prefer to keep my privacy. No one needs to see their partner cutting their toenails or tweezing that stray hair of their chin. I stayed in a hotel in Athens where they had a glass wall between the bathroom and bedroom. They had curtains that closed to cover the wall and I did wonder whether they had had to install them because so many of their guests had complained.

I love Crittall and maybe I'd use them for a private en-suite or as a shower door, but for a see through wall to a bathroom, no thank you, that's just mad!
