The Bathroom- A TVs Final Frontier

I recently helped a good friend of mine remodel the master bathroom in his house and we came up with some creative ideas. His wife had always wanted a soaker tub and a nice relaxing atmosphere; which we were able to accommodate. While searching for designed ideas he came across an article how someone had installed a flat screen TV and mounted it over the tub so they could soak and watch their favorite shows.

At first his wife thought the idea was a bit tacky and would take away from the relaxing nature of the tub, but being the guy that he is, he went ahead and wired for the TV anyway.  We added some niches for towels and bath accessories right into the wall for easy access and hung a beautiful chandelier right over the tub. 

His wife absolutely loved it, but she was still very hesitant about mounting the TV in the bathroom, but again being the guy that he is we installed a titling TV mount about 3-4 feet above the base of the tub tilting it to the perfect angle for the viewer sitting in the tub, and as an added bonus he bought his wife the last season of Sex In the City in hopes that she would come around.

 Needless to say after watching a few episodes of her favorite show, soaking in a hot bubble bath she no longer thinks it’s a bad idea. Matter of fact since our wife’s are friends as well I think I will have to add a flat screen TV mounted on our bathroom wall next, and I’m not too proud to admit I will be watching a football game or two soaking in bubbles myself.
