No bath-room: dismantling bath functionality myths | News | Architonic
In contemporary interiors, the notion that bathroom spaces are purely functional, guided solely by technical, physiological and psychological needs, is challenged, especially in the context of bathrooms. The concept of private property often compartmentalises human activities, isolating them into distinct areas. However, spaces like the bedroom, dining room, kitchen and bathroom are more than just functional areas; they represent a journey through our daily needs and activities. While traditionally viewed as a space for two fundamental activities – bathing and waste elimination – the modern bathroom has undergone a significant transformation. The components of the bathroom, once relegated to hidden corners, now take centre stage, blurring the boundaries that once enclosed hygienic activities. This shift transforms the following four bathroom projects into multifunctional sanctuaries, where architectural design embraces spatial qualities that challenge conventional notions.
