Customer Reviews

Good for inspirational pictures, no more
I ordered this book for a friend as a birthday present. The massively thick book really excited me but when I looked inside I was less impressed. If you expect to read about how to plan and create a great bathroom then this is not for you. The book has small sections of text, each one in 5 languages! So not much for textual content. The book is, however, full of very flash looking bathrooms, so if you want just inspiration in the form of fabulous pictures of very contemporary luxurious bathrooms/wetrooms then this is a good buy. And if you want an impressing looking coffee table book, this is definitely going to score points! :) All in all though, I have to say I was disappointed and I got my friend another birthday present...
