Bathroom fixtures

Met with architect/interior designer today to work out bathroom design and bathroom fixtures, as rough plumbing will go in soon. In theory, it's as simple as choosing a brand and installing their rough valves and choosing trims later. In practice, you might decide on a different finish later and the exact trim you wanted doesn't come in that finish and so you pick a different thing that doesn't fit right in that rough-in location.

Other details such as wanting a shower spout at above 6' (so no one has to duck) affect the tile design -- it's going all the way to the ceiling now, so never mind that cute cap molding you found.

So it's best to plan out the whole bathroom now. It's nervy, but I'm going with a trendy oil-rubbed-bronze column-spout faucet in one bathroom. Rad.
