Bathroom Design Ideas for Freestanding Bathtubs
A freestanding bathtub, similar to the clawfoot tub but without the metal feet, offers an undeniable elegance to bathroom decor. Adding the eye-catching slopes and curves of a freestanding tub will turn an ordinary bathroom into a dream design and offer a welcome escape from the stress of the day.
Dual Purpose
Where space is available, a freestanding tub makes a nice addition to an open shower area with both options available within an enclosed glass or privacy walls.
Pedestal or Deck
Make your bathtub the centerpiece of your bathroom with a sleek freestanding design. Pair it with elegant wall-mounted faucets and hand showers to create a clean, modern look. The simple style highlights the beauty of the tub and brings a relaxing, spa-like feel to your space.
Alcove
The freestanding tub fits in an alcove with space left over for a center or deck-mounted faucet and hand shower, giving avantgarde allure in comparison to tubs with wall installation.

Kitty Corner
If there’s a corner that needs some style, the freestanding tub works great at an angle with floor or deck water access and center mount faucets.
Small and Gorgeous
Even smaller bathrooms can accommodate a single slipper freestanding tub. Pair it with floor-mounted or freestanding tub faucets to enhance the charm. The tub can be placed near a wall or in a corner to maximize space.

Let the Sunshine In
Even if windows are floor to ceiling, a freestanding bathtub floats in front of any window with water access through the floor rather than the wall. Break free of the restrictions of wall installations with freestanding tubs.
Spa-Centric
Add seating and shelves for towels and special bathing accessories around the freestanding tub for a spa-like atmosphere.
Freestanding tubs are available in a single slipper, double slipper, modular, pedestal, or double-ended styles in white stone or acrylic and in white or matte white finishes.
