Room by Room: The Bathroom Glow up
The bathroom has had the biggest glow-up in recent home design history — from a utility closet with plumbing to the room everyone wants to live in. Caitlin and Sam trace how the primary ensuite exploded during the '80s and '90s McMansion boom, why showers are quietly winning the tub-vs-shower war, and why the guest powder room is still the one room where anyone's allowed to have fun. They get into tile-mixing nostalgia, the unglamorous truth about grout color, the freestanding-tub fantasy versus its real-life function, and the eternal glass-door-vs-shower-curtain debate (verdict: steal a window curtain). Plus: Caitlin's almost-purchase of a milky mint-green pedestal sink, her new house's questionable-but-beloved mauve jacuzzi tub, and a hard-won ranking of Euro bathroom quirks — bidets included. We want to hear your bathroom situation — dream versus reality. The tile you wish you'd chosen. The tub you've actually never used. The upgrade that genuinely changed your life.
