There are bathtubs specially designed to fit small bathrooms, and one lovely option is this Zencha tub from Duravit (top image), which draws inspiration from Japanese tea culture where the rounded shape ends gracefully with a softly curved outward edge. The freestanding square version measures 1250 by 1250mm and offers a blissful deep water immersion that’s akin to being at a Japanese onsen. It’s made from DuroCast® Plus, a durable and nonslip material with a matte, velvety finish. The tub comes in two other compact sizes.
