Today's New York Times Travel Section has an article entitled, Heads Up: Bathrooms That Are Part of the View, which explains: "From the chic boutiques of London and Los Angeles to hot new hotels in more exotic locales like India and China, exposed bathrooms are a growing trend — whether in the form of transparent glass walls and shower stalls or bathtubs set in the middle of the bedroom like free-standing sculptures."
If you'd rather see than be the view, take a look at this article we wrote several years ago, entitled: A VIEW FROM THE LOO: In the zone on the throne and other "over the top" bathrooms from BedandBreakfast.com.
