About this space
"Rarely does innovation and style merge together so effortlessly as in the Karina™ tub from Jacuzzi Luxury Bath. In creating this 21st century bath it was important to keep the look and feel modern and timeless all at once. I wanted a classic oval freestanding tub to anchor the space, but needed it to somehow still feel fresh and of-the-moment. What I love about this Jacuzzi® brand tub is the nod to modernism with its thin profile and creative built-in grab edge/towel holder; so practical and smart. The solid surface stone/resin material that the tub is created from allows for the tub water to stay warm longer...a brilliant component of a timeless design from a brand that truly understands the luxury of the bath."
Design Insights
"I could see putting the Karina™ bathtub into a craftsman home or a project that was more Mediterranean inspired. I think it’s one of those chameleon bathtubs, it just works pretty much everywhere."
