Not a Waterbed; Relax on Top of Water with the Nautilus

June 23rd, 2008 by BallerHouse

Not a waterbed. That’s what we’re telling ourselves after checking out the Nautilus; a half bath-half bed that aims to encourage relaxation. This innovative bathroom design tries to change the traditional concept of a bathroom by combining modern technology with the age old relaxation remedy of a hot bath. You can relax in the Nautilus, floating above water without getting wet. Then when you decide it’s time to take the plunge, simply turn on the tap which allows fresh water to flow in on top of the mat while the water below flows out. Sounds pretty relaxing to us, but last time we chekced the bathtub was still a place to relax. So maybe it’s not trying to change the traditional bathroom concept all that much. Either way, this makes any bathroom a relaxation paradise and passes for baller in our book. Our hats are off to the designers Sandra de Miguel, Xavier Arbones, Alvaro Bermudez, and Marta Fernandez. Check out more pictures of this concept in the gallery.
