Last but not Least, il Bagno

We're finally coming to the end of my coverage of Design Week Milan as a part of the Blanco Design Council.  I still have a couple other experiences to relate and will surprise you when you least expect it.  For now let me tell you about the Salone Internazionale del Bagno, also known as the International Bath Show, a part of the bigger show held in Milan last month.  I can't believe it's actually been nearly a month! For the most part, I noticed lots of bathroom drama.  Luxury was the order of the day and although much of it probably won't end up in your bathroom, it was fun to consider. Bathroom vanities were few and far between.  The ones I did see were of the floating variety with vessel sinks.  There were a lot of pedestal sinks too.  The overall trend in the bath continues to be the creation of a spa-like atmosphere.  This is done by constructing a totally sensory experience including lighting, sound and creative, invigorating options for the shower and tub.  It's all about relaxation and having a place to escape the stress of our increasingly crazy lives.  Conscious water use and conservation also continue to be at the forefront and I think it's always destined to remain so.  Here are just a few sights that piqued my interest.  If you'd like to view all the loveliness I captured in Milan you can find all the pics here.   Click here for a peek at all my Milan photos!
