Bathroom, Sweet Bathroom

The serenity, sharing, and comfort depicted in this 1952 bath [we'll ignore the complete lack of storage in the room] is positively wrenching to me. Let me explain. We have embarked on a significant bathroom remodeling. Yes. As a consequence, showers are taken in a sometimes sub-50ยบ basement environment, where the heretofore luxuries—warmth, light, and warmth—of the daily toilette are now located. I envy this snug and semi-private 'T' floor plan, and will no doubt dream of its civility for weeks to come.
