4 Ways to Make Your Mini Tub the Focal Point of Your Bathroom

Embrace the Tub in Shower Design

While alcove features have long combined the tub and shower into one unit, they’re far from the only way to accomplish this goal. One of the hottest modern trends is to build a larger freestanding shower stall and then tuck a small tub inside of it. This allows the user to really relax in the tub without worrying about splashing or causing a mess.

Try a Slipper or Sitting Tub

To ensure a smaller space-saving tub still catches the eye, consider a slipper design. Slipper tubs are named after the footwear because they feature one side that is raised compared to the other end. A slipper tub allows the bather to comfortably lean back and relax, making the most of a smaller soaking space. Slipper or double slipper designs are available in almost every tub type.

Pick a Mini Clawfoot

Clawfoot tubs require a little extra space around the sides, but they can still fit into small bathrooms if a model is chosen that is under 60 inches in length. Mini-clawfoot tubs tend to put extra focus on their ornate feet, making them a powerful statement despite their compact size.

Get Creative with Finishes

To make a mini tub really stand out, consider an unusual finish for the tub or its accessories. Dark and matte finishes can make a tub a centerpiece of a bathroom rather than just another bisque-colored feature. If a full tub finish is too overwhelming for the room, try just getting creative with the finish on the feet of a clawfoot tub or the faucet and filler hardware instead.
