Yay or Nay? Double showers
Comments (36)To Uyenvy Le...hope I got hat right...as they say "Great Minds..." I've never forgoten my early "nuddie days on Nauru Island" just after WWII...a whole tribe of little chocolate and vanilla kids with the whole Island as our playground...the older ones with a littley to watch over. Now, I was about to log off when I read an article by a fellow who says that its unhealthy to wash too much or have long baths...that in his opinion equate to "stewing in your own juice". He advocates a short shower without soap about tice a week otherwise a 'sink wash'....and expounds his theories based on the healthy, supple, smoothe skin of jungle natives who do not bathe or use soap....all their natural oils preserved....lalalaaa.. Started me thinking about an pleasurable alternative to "stewing" (his opinion)...I like to have a shower after a long bath both to close the pores and rinse off any.."juice". Oh YUK, why did he have to spoil my heaven! I spent years in Italy in a community where people did not bathe at all or use soap but showered briefly on Saturdays so to go to church on Sundays...it was the worst, so I'm not going to go without my ablutions ever again. But...what if there were such water restrictions that we were all limited to a measured amount of water per person? What of our showers and tubs? That started me thinking on how to remain sweet smelling and really clean. My solution was...SAUNA! I go up to the local Gym for a swim a sauna and a massage just to keep as much mobility as possible and I love the Sauna! You mentioned the Spa..but that requires copious water...then there's communal bathing...which is not something I've done as an adult...that also requires water plus...so SAUNA!... I am having increasing problems getting out of my tub. I'd researched the disability 'walk in tubs' that are filled after one gets in and closes the door on the side and in which one sits on a seat submerged in the water, the Molly Bather which is a belt that lowers one into and out of the tub...but being a permanent fixture it spoils the look of the bathroom...and I like pretty bathrooms as well as functional ones...So many options to getting into and out of a tub....some sort of pretty others not. Not because that fellow has worried me but just that I want to enjoy a really thorough, healthy invigorating cleanse that is easy to access, that is relaxing without making a bathoom that resembles sports locker room showers, the ablution wing of an institution or the disbility facilities in a hospital. Maybe remove my lovely tub and replace it with a state of the art practical sauna room could be the go. Any comments Houzzers?...See More6 ft.

Comments (1)Houzz, how do these get in design dilemmas?...See MoreWhich side should my chaise be on?
Comments (3)Thanks Gionenne! I'll include a pic of the couch I bought. I was thinking of having the L (Chaise) on the right side (I.e not along the window side). because I was thinking if I was lying on the chaise I'd face the window not the wall or if guests came in they would also face the window if sitting on the chaise but yeah do have concerns about feeling open. sliding door opens from the other window near where the fridge will be. Thoughts?...See MoreDouble uPVC vs Double glazed alumiunium windows
Comments (1)we've used the standard double glazed aluminium for several projects in a similar climate to Canberra and the windows can have lots of condensation in winter without insulated curtains but we're happy to open and close our insulated curtains to follow the sun but "next time" we'll choose the thermally broken windows for the daytime living areas (to keep the curtains open on overcast days) but still use the standard double glazed aluminium "cheaper" alternatives in all the other rooms but, even more important than the choice of window style will be the choice of window size and orientation ...and each window can look the same but be glazed to be specific to the room ..consider smaller window areas eg narrower windows (with space to draw back curtains to each side) 1500 mm tall windows instead of full height, highlight windows rather than big windows with a view of the neighbours' ..good luck with your decisions...See Moresabruton
