Designing Outside the Box: Bathtubs

In the dictionary next to the definition of “bathtub,” you will no longer see a picture of a boring white enamel tub. These days, tubs are created in unique materials, bold colors, and abnormal shapes with textures and designs that are out of this world!

Here are a few bathtubs that are anything but run-of-the-mill to spark your bathroom design inspiration.

Natural Materials and Textures from Stone Forest

Using nature for its inspiration, New Mexico-based Stone Forest plays on organic shapes and textures for their creations. We love that some of their bathtubs look like they were plucked straight out of the forest. The Round bathtub (pictured here) is available in black granite, carrara marble, and travertino romano.
