You
probably may have noticed that some of the most elegant homes that are featured
on TV or the movies have glass door bathrooms and some not only glass doors but
are made of glass altogether. Whenever I watched one of those movies, I got the
same feeling: ‘’I totally want one!’’ my feeling however, was accompanied by
lingering doubt about the shape that I should adopt for my bathroom. I think
the conventional square-shaped shower is just too common and hexagonal or
cylindrical designs are just too architecturally complicated. In the interests
of staying budget-friendly and trying to reach a middle ground between my
imagination and unavoidable realism, I opted for a quadrangular shape which
certainly gave me a lot more mobility inside the shower and looked very
esthetically appealing.
People
often say this and it may sound like cliché but whenever you like what you see
you just want to be around it a little more. Now, I don’t want to give the
impression that I didn’t shower as much before I went with a glass door
bathroom but I definitely enjoy my showers more now! I enjoy looking at it
while I brush my teeth and I do stare at it with a proud look on my face about my
choice because of how good and elegant it looks.
I have
often come across misperceptions about these doors or panels being too fragile
which is not at all the case. Glass doors are more durable and thicker than
regular glass which makes them stronger and more resistant. I have
conservatively speaking fell at least twice while in the shower sometimes
leaning towards the crystal by inertia and I have yet to see a dent on it.
Elegance, functionality and durability are the trifecta of a good design
concept, if you can manage to have it affordable, then you have hit the
jackpot!
