The floating tub is suspended in a shallow pool, creating the feeling that you are surrounded in water. A cool concept, especially when it’s paired with a view of the water.

According to, “purist design with clean-cut interior lines creates generous proportions allowing you to lie back and relax in the water. The low height makes stepping into Bassino exceptionally comfortable, while the vertical walls of this minimalist pool allow maximum space for showering.”

If you’re a media junkie like us, then there’s no better bathroom than the Digital Bathroom by Italian bathroom. The high-tech concept bathroom was designed to seamlessly integrate the TV, Laptop, iPod, and other gadgets into the experience. Resulting in a design that looks like it could be straight out of Iron Man.

While details on the Digital Bathroom have yet to fully emerge, we can see that this baller baƱo is equipped with the following:

The new Strip bathtub line from Belgium bathroom products manufacturer Aquamass delivers an unbelievably clean look, achieved by its overflowing “skirted” effect on the Wall Strip (pictured above) and the free-standing Strip Slice (shown after the jump). We’re a sucker for any bathroom fixture with a built-in waterproof LCD, and the Wall Strip offers the perfect canvas. The Strip tub line’s technologically-advanced Cristalpant material (a tough plastic compound) makes this Aquamass product even more unique.If you really want to create a towel-dropping effect, opt for the matching Strip washbasins, which complete the look.

Not a waterbed. That’s what we’re telling ourselves after checking out the Nautilus; a half bath-half bed that aims to encourage relaxation. This innovative bathroom design tries to change the traditional concept of a bathroom by combining modern technology with the age old relaxation remedy of a hot bath. You can relax in the Nautilus, floating above water without getting wet. Then when you decide it’s time to take the plunge, simply turn on the tap which allows fresh water to flow in on top of the mat while the water below flows out. Sounds pretty relaxing to us, but last time we chekced the bathtub was still a place to relax. So maybe it’s not trying to change the traditional bathroom concept all that much. Either way, this makes any bathroom a relaxation paradise and passes for baller in our book. Our hats are off to the designers Sandra de Miguel, Xavier Arbones, Alvaro Bermudez, and Marta Fernandez. Check out more pictures of this concept in the gallery.

The Spider has sharp lines and an unexpected angularity… other surprising details include the contrasting black headrest and the raised grips in the bottom resembling tyre marks! The Playa, on the other hand, sets a traditionally-styled bathtub into a solid block to arouse curiosity and further investigation. These bathtub designs may appear simple, but in fact, they offer hidden details that bring them bang up-to-date. Sooth away your day with their airpool features, whilst enjoying chromotherapy and great audio sound from your CDs and MP3s.
