Only decades ago the bathroom was a place outside the house with a pan and running water sometimes, the luckier ones had a basin. Slowly people realised about the number of things they could do in a bathroom adding mirrors and some accessories. It was not long before the little room finally entered the house and became part of the design considerations of a home. Invested with this new status the bathroom grew in stature of importance in the house, together with the kitchen wich was already integral part of it, only it was relegated downstairs, at the bottom, "the place for cook and maid". The influence from Europe finally was what gave the bathroom the ultimate status within the home boosting litterally hundreds of new products designed for the purpose. Bathrooms now had baths and basins, mirrored cabinets and vanity units with storage, heaters, various accessories and the obvious pan, with carpets o the floor! It does not end here, a bathroom in a house is now in competition for being the most designed room as people are appreciating other possibilities like showers (only lately very popular in U.K bathroom design), bidets, hydromassage baths, steam rooms and saunas, music, TV screens and colour therapy. Unfortunately the average sized bathroom does not have enough space for it all so in some cases the bathroom becomes an open plan design integrating itself with the bedroom. However, ceramic and stone tiles or wooden floors have replaced carpets and wall decoration in most if not all bathrooms designed in the last few years.
