This is probably great for public bathrooms and prisons where you can hose everything down easily.

Done nicely it doesn't look cheap at all, in fact quite the opposite. It actually looks very stylish and modern.


I agree that these *can* look very stylish and modern... when they're dry...but I still don't see why the obviously useful innovation of a barrier would be completely overlooked. It wouldn't look any less modern, and the barrier need not take up much space. So why build a whole shower room?

I had one of these in my apartment in Italy for three years. Pain in the butt. Put in a very small shower stall.

Why not just create some sort of physical barrier to keep the water where it belongs? It doesn't have to take up that much space.


+1 in Argentina. If the floor isn't graded properly, water can pool everywhere.

My cleaning crew would love the stream-lined cleaning. Looks super efficient.

I think it would bug me to have a wet floor in the non-shower area.

This looks like a handicapped accessible bathroom.
