"The bathroom is a high-traffic area and one that guests are likely to see, and yet when decorating, it can easily be overlooked. At its core, the lavatory is a utilitarian space but as author Samantha Nestor says, &amp;quot;People are using the bathroom as an oasis once again, and learning that you don&amp;#039;t have to be governed by any of the rules.&amp;quot; In her book, The Luxury Bathroom, Nestor explores what makes this essential room so inspiring. It&amp;#039;s become a lavish spa-like place, a welcoming spot for guests, a place to take risks and make clever design decisions, as well as the most personal space in the home. Whether these rooms stand out for their opulence, or wow us with their streamlined simplicity, one thing is clear: The bath is becoming an irresistible retreat. In our preview of the book, you&amp;#039;ll see that Nestor has indeed chosen &amp;quot;the spaces with the most imaginative solutions to different problems and places and that people would aspire to have in their own homes,&amp;quot; because unlike reading rooms or walk-in closets, &amp;quot;Everybody has a bathroom.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
