18 Dreamy Freestanding Bathtubs For The Great Spa-Like Bath At Home

March 9, 2018
  • Share

Stressful times call for a soothing bath. When it comes to home design, I adore freestanding bathtubs. As a rule, I always try to section out time during my busy day to practice self-care — whatever that looks like depending on my schedule. I am NOT a bath girl, but the other day I was inspired to run a warm bath… only to find out that I don’t have a stopper in my bathtub! That should show you how rare it is for me to take a relaxing soak! Note to self (and my Amazon account): purchase a bathtub stopper!

Anyway, I recently visited a home remodel site with a friend of mine and there was an old tub. I adore freestanding bathtubs in new construction. It was a cast iron clawfoot tub. After asking my Instagram followers whether or not the freestanding tub should be salvaged or ditched, most said to keep it!

I think that’s spot on… there’s something so romantic, soothing, and comforting about a good old fashioned (and good looking!) stand-out stand-alone tub.

I’ve gathered some of my favorite freestanding tubs for inspiration (below)!

Such a cute idea to create an entire nook just for your tub. Personal space is key!

When rustic meets chic. This elegant bathroom uses a stunning tub and chandelier paired with minimalist decor to create an ambiance that’s simple, sophisticated and oh so Insta-worthy. And can we talk about the outdoor view from that tub?! I’m all about it.

Now that we’re all inspired to unwind with a hot bath, here are some of my favorite essentials for ultimate relaxation (below)!

1. Teak Bathtub Caddy 2. Laura Mercier Almond Coconut Honey Bath 3. Lavender Dot Neck Pillow

4. COCOCOZY Soy Candle 5. Korres Wild Rose & Vitamin C Sleeping Facial

We could all use a night of wine, reading, and face masks, right?

In these often-contentious times, one must take care of themselves in order to brave the day and be a useful and helpful happy member of society.  My solution these days is take a bath (once I get that stopper, of course). What’s yours?

Wishing you peace and stillness.

xo!

This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and k This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and kept us there.
A 90s home in Amman, Jordan, entirely remodelled by local artisans. Neo-Florentine bones, Levant-eclectic sensibility, arched passageways, and a flea-market-meets-commissioned-art collection that makes every wall feel intentional.
What makes it work: restraint where you’d expect excess, and boldness where you’d expect safety.
This is what happens when a home is built by people who actually know the place. 🖤
Save this, it’s a masterclass in culturally rooted design.

Panic mode activated!
If you only have 10 minutes, focus on these three things:
1. Make the bed. It instantly makes the whole room look cleaner.
2. Fold or straighten the throw blanket and pillows.
3. Clear visible clutter from nightstands and the floor.
That’s it. Those three steps make the biggest visual impact without deep cleaning.
Save this for the next time you need a fast bedroom reset. 🔖

Black is not a bold choice. It’s a neutral, and one of the most versatile ones in design.
The rooms that get it right treat black the same way others treat white or greige: as a foundation that lets everything else breathe. The texture of the wall. The warmth of the wood. The drama of the marble. Black doesn’t compete, it amplifies.
Save this the next time someone talks you out of going dark. 🖤

Life when I’m offline. 🎣 On this trip to Park CitLife when I’m offline. 🎣
On this trip to Park City, UT, I was way off line with a little fly fishing. No emails. No DMs. No feed. Just a rod, a beautiful river, and however long it takes to catch something.
Running two brands means my brain rarely stops so when it does, it really does.
No fish were harmed. All fish were returned into the river.
What do you do when you log off? Comment and let's give each other some ideas!😀
